Shower Fresh

Just back from the vet's. Ink's got his shots, we got his shampoo. And we learnt that the dude's already about 7 months, not 3, or 4 as we'd first thought.

Which is good. It just means in about two weeks' time, we'll be doing the snipping.

Ouch. I've already told the missus that she'll be in charge of that - I'm not going anywhere near where a male's privates are going to be cut.


It seemed a major operation when we got home and we're gearing up for his first shower since we got him. After all the horror stories we've heard about cats going crazy when people try to bathe them, we were prepared for anything. Bought rubber gloves from the convenience store downstairs; we got into things that would protect us from scratching (I was even half-tempted to put on my army fatigues...).

Not half as painful though... Ink was just complaining a lot.

At least he's clean.
