Little Cat Feet

Shaggy and his littermate brother Scooby came to live with us in October 2005, when they were 5 years old. Scout arrived in 2006 at the age of 6 weeks. Scooby passed over very suddenly to the Rainbow Bridge on April 1, 2012 and is remembered fondly and missed deeply.

Scout is Bionic!



I went for my annual check-up at the v-e-t recently.
Dr. Rich (that's his name not his financial status) has been taking care of me since I was 6 weeks old, on the exact day I went home with mom. I'm 5 now and he says I'm a great cat!
It is very true, but he also takes care of Shaggy who wants to hide in the carrier and Scooby who hisses at him. So compared to that, it's no contest! I walk right out of the carrier and jump on the counters and start exploring! Tons of interesting smells there.
He looked at my teeths, which are fine and felt my belleh, which is good too. Listened to my insides, checked my ears. All ok.
I weighed 15 pounds exactly.
I got my rooster shot, and then I got an extra shot...
A Microchip injected into the skin by my shoulder blades!
I'm Bionic! I'm SuperCat!
But most importantly, I'm safe if I get out the door or get separated from my family somehow.

We are glad you had a good check up. Now you are Bionic does that mean you have superpowers now?

That chip is a good thing to have. We found a lost doggie yesterday...and we were lucky to find his Person, too! He didn't have tags or a chip.

Very cool -- a Bionic Scout! I'm so glad you are safer now. But that doesn't mean you can wander away and scare us.
