Grounded

Music: Koda Kumi- Run for Your Life Mood: an urge to go to the loo

One morning, Mikey appeared for breakfast as usual. However, he didn't head for the kitchen, he went upstairs and cried for my dad at the master bedroom instead. Then I saw dad carried him down, and showed me Mikey's tail...

Good Lord! a whole patch of fur had came off clean from his tail and it's hurting him badly, no wonder he cried like a kitten.

We brought Mikey to the Vet after work. Too bad the Vet need to shave off more fur from his tail to get a better look at the wound. Then he confirmed that it's not from some cat fight but skin disease. He then gave Mikey a jab, prescibed us some cream and pills. As if Mikey doesn't look bad enough with a shaved tail, the Vet made him wear an outrageous looking plastic collar that cost a whooping RM22, to prevent him from licking off the cream after application.
And as if a shaved tail and a plastic collar don't sound bad enough, we made his life even worse by grounding him for a good 2 weeks~~







No wonder he grew so fat eventually that he looked like a snowman!
