Dear people I don't know and Lady says you are my friends, but because their might be dogs out there and I am not sure about them, so I am not writing pals.
Last week, Lady got the bright idea to stuff us in our carriers and take us to a place called the vet.
Styx and i showed our displeasure by singing the we hate this song for the entire 25 minute ride.
When we got there, after the clinic sorted out the actual spelling of our names (Lady and Man picked names that are hard for people apparently - perhaps more on names later), we were taken to an examination room.
Here we were mercifully let out of our carriers and allowed to explore.
Explore we did. We were all over that room, that had great shelves. I came down when needed and Styx needed to be brought down twice.
The people there were fairly nice (couldn't keep their hands off us) and said we were beautiful.
The summary:
-We are both in good health and are long cats.
-Styx is likely 2 and not 4 like the shelter said (which Lady thought).
-When the vet was examining Styx, I didn't take my eyes off them. I was totally watching, ready to attack if she treated Styx poorly. I am really bonded to my Styx.
-Rude - I need lose a little weight. I have already lost .44lbs since coming to live with my new servants, I mean the Lady and Man.

| I gave Styx a bath while we were waiting |
-I have a bit of a cold and the medication that most cats like, I hate and you have to force me to take.
-Lady and Man can now start switching us to a higher quality food. The shelter, meant to be a temporary holding place, uses whatever food we will eat and is donated etc. because they know how stressful it is to be wrongfully imprisoned. There goal is just to make sure we eat. This may help with my weight as well.
Apparently, I do not need to be subjected to this torture for another year.

| Can we go yet? |
So that was our adventure and I have forgiven the people for this, mostly because there were yummy treats.
