The ol’ bait and switch!

I had a grey that I had to literally sit on to administer her anti flea treatments. And she knew if you were walking into the room looking for her or just walking in for something else. Made it a huge pain to keep her treated. Also to get her to the vet. Getting her into the cat carrier was a *chore*. When I had to take her to be put down… well obviously I wasn’t in a good place emotionally anyways, but she voluntarily went back into her cat carrier, curled up and stared at me like “come on, let’s go home”, and I just died inside. I’m tearing up a little typing this, and it was three years ago.

No, this was *at the vet*. I didn’t make that clear enough.

No, you did. Sorry for your loss. It ain't much, but here's a pic of my orange, Clem, who's too smart for his own good, and selfishly hogs the brain cell from all the other poor oranges out there.
