******* The Vet's Office *******
"Hello, I have an appointment for my kitten Shadow." Pete said to the Secretary.
Type Type Type Type.
"Oh yes, your just on time. Have a seat and a nurse will be with you shortly"
Pete carried me over to a chair, where he sat down and put the cage in the seat next to him. From inside the cage I could see a few other pets, who looked nervous like me. I tried to look at Pete but the cage door was facing straight, I could see a door and a few other occupied chairs. The door opened and a nurse made her way over carry a clipboard.
"Hi There, is this Shadow?" She asked peering in the cage at me.
If you get any closer lady I'm gonna scratch you!
"Yes that's him" I heard Pete say.
"OK, I need you to fill out these papers while we have a Look at him"
I felt the cage being lifted and saw I was heading towards the door where the nurse had appeared. She carried me down a small hallway into a little room with a big metal table in the center. I was placed on the table, and I saw her looking inside to me.
"The Doctor will be right in to see you" She said smiling.
You're lucky I'm stuck in this cage!
I heard her leave, and it wasn't for several minutes until I heard the door open.
"Hello Shadow, I'm Doctor Schwartz and I'll be seeing you today" He said unlocking the cage. "Why don't you come out so we can begin? The faster you cooperate the faster you can leave."
I slowly made my way out.
"Let's see, you need all your basic shots. But first we need to take your core temperature." The Doctor pulled a thermometer out and looked at me.
I opened my mouth wide and waited for him to stick the thing under my tongue.
"Try again"
I pointed to my ear.
"Nooo"
You gotta be kidding me.
******* One Awkward Moment Later *******
I feel so violated....
"Now that that's out of the way we can administer your shots and you can be on your way. Nurse!"
A nurse comes in Carry a tray of 4 shots.
"OK Shadow, We need you to sit still" the Doctor says.
"Just get it over with" I say, holding my arm out and clenching my eyes shut.
After a shot in each arm and leg it is finally over. The Doctor walks out without saying a word. Ugh, I hate the Vets, these shots still sting, I rub the spot on my arm where I got the shot. The nurse walks over to me holding a giant bowl, holding it down to me.
"For being such a good patient today you can have something from the candy bowl" she says smiling.
I grab a cherry flavored lollipop; Ok maybe they're not so bad. The nurse scoots me back into the cage and locks it, then carries me back to the waiting room.
"Shadow was very good for us today; I hope you have a good day." The nurse says, handing the cage back to Pete.
"Thank you very much" he says.
Pete walks outside, I hear him snap his fingers and we're back on the front porch.
"That wasn't so bad, was it?" He asks.
"Feh" I said quietly.
He opens the front door and carries me inside to the kitchen, where he sets the cage down on the kitchen table. I can see King eating his breakfast, while Pete unlocks the door. I make my way out carrying my lolli, and see Pete pouring dry cat food into my bowl.
"You got a lollipop?" King asks.
"Yep, I was a good patient!" I said smiling.
"Maybe you could learn a thing or two from Shadow, King" Pete says opening a cupboard.
"Whatever..." King says.
Pete pulls out a kid's sippy cup and fills it with juice and sets it down next to me.
"How did you know that-" I start.
"Enjoy your breakfast you two" Pete says walking out of the room.
Hope you enjoyed this, it's a bit shorter than usual so forgive me :p
