Somali cat in veterinary clinic waiting room, looking out window


Summer has her annual check up at her regular veterinary clinic, where she gets to explore a little and sample a new Churu treat.
I had my annual veterinary check up. Actually, it was a few days late, because the clinic was booked up. But these are necessary, not just for my overall health but also so I can continue my therapy cat work.

Since it was quiet in the waiting room, with no dogs around, my human let me hang out on my leash.

Mostly I looked out the window. We didn’t have to wait that long.

While we waited for the tech and the vet, I got to check out the exam room.

They always have some interesting supplies. Including treats!

They had a new Churu treat I’d never seen before, so my human opened one up for me. I wasn’t sure what to think of it.

The tech took all my vitals. And this time, I got to have my temperature taken by ear, not the…other way. That was a relief! I weighed about 6.6 lbs., which is a couple ounces below what I usually weigh. So my human said I can have more treats.

The vet checked me out, including my eye freckle (it gets examined every visit). Everything looked good, and she said my teeth looked great. Which they should, since my human brushes them several times a week! The vet also filled out a form for my therapy cat organization, which my human sent over when we got home. So as soon as they log it in, I’ll be scheduling more therapy cat visits.
