M.O.T.

Time again for the pussycats to face their yearly vaccinations and check up as we drag them, meowing and clawing all the way to the vets this evening. We're hoping to find Pern has lost enough weight to go on a maintainance diet and as for Eric... So long as he's still weeing and pooping we're generally happy!

Of course, it's easy enough to scoop up the creatures and have them poked and prodded once a year (more usually, in Eric's case!) but do we ever do the same ourselves? We rarely seem to nip to the GP for a uick check up and often live with an number of nagging little symptoms that simply play on our mind periodically. I wonder if we'd take more care of ourselves if we had human bills comparably as large as vets bills to contend with when things went wrong? Jxx
