Yes, today’s post is titled “VETeran” because by 9:30AM I will be one…..I will have been to my Vet for my 4-month checkup so that would make me a VETeran right? Right! Mom thinks she’s been able to sneak my harness and leash upstairs without me seeing it……she actually doesn’t know that I review the big desk calendar in the kitchen constantly to see if she’s put the word “VET” or “SAM” on there anywhere. I’m smarter than she thinks I am apparently!
So, tomorrow is Teaser Tuesday and I’m still making my mind up on the photo – it MIGHT be a Guest Teaser but it MIGHT be a Mom Teaser……..tomorrow you’ll find out OK? All I can tell you is that we’ll make it good. Oh yeah – you can count on that.
I sort of had a good day yesterday……………Mom and Dad worked on the leaves in the yard but it only took a couple of hours so I just napped. Then they came in and Mom wanted to rest and I popped up on her lap and took a snooze for a while. She had to get up after about 30 minutes so THAT was THAT. She came upstairs to work on the computer (probably to help me with this post!!!!)………and I did NOT like it one bit. I yelled from the bottom of the stairs but I do that all the time, so Mom didn’t give it a thought – she just called me and said she’d be with me soon………so what did I do? Well I horked of course. Yep – in the foyer on the rug. TWICE. She’s learning the yard way that if she doesn’t do what I want her to do RIGHT THEN, there’s a possible hork in her future. Actually it was because I’d been outside earlier and ate some grass…..but don’t tell HER that!
Hope you all had a great weekend………….we did……………..now it’s onward to another busy week. Would you believe Mom is already doing some of her Christmas shopping online? YES! I wonder if any of it is for ME ME ME? Of course if it’s NOT for me…….I can always HORK to get her attention!!! HAHA – just kidding (sort of).

Good luck at the vet today, buddy. I’m sure you’ll do fine. Mom refuses to think about Christmas till she eats her turkey dinner next week.

You are probably back from the vet by now Sammy, and I hope everything went well for you.
Mum was hoping to take me this week, but I have to have a fasting blood test and she is very limited this week with which days she can get me in early, and they don’t tally with the days my vet will be there early. He is on holiday next week, so it looks like I might get a 2 week reprieve.

I don’t get my reprieve after all. My vet rang my mum and asked if she could get me in by 8am on wednesday. He is doing the tuesday night cover and will see me before he hands over in the morning. At least we should be back home around 9 so breakfast won’t be too late.

Good luck, Sammy I hope by now you are safe home again!! I’m a VETeran too as I had to go on Friday and it was so traumatic I actually pooped in the PTU on the way home!! I was so embarrassed as I’d never done that before!! Luckily the vet said I was in good shape physically, but he and mum had a long chat about the fact I’m showing a lot of stress at the moment! I might have some calming medicine in my future!! It’s a bad time of year here for fireworks and all kinds of bad weather so it’s probably that!! xxx

Sammy! Long time, no visit. My Human is hopeless. Do you know what? Yesterday, the Human found TWO–count ’em, TWO–mummified hairballs in unlikely & out-of-the-way corners! Score! It totally grossed her out, Buddy. Best to hork things in out of the way spots and just WAIT for the cries of dismay weeks or months later. More fun than should be legal.
Hope the v-e-t trip was not too bad and that you’re home and chilling by now. XOXOXO

Oh Spitty you’re a man after my own heart – the “hidden hork” is one of my specialties – good for you! Isn’t it fun watching them cleaning the house and finding an old “GIFT” from the depths of our tummies waiting for them???? I love it. Maybe we should start a “SECRET HORK” club? Still waiting to hear what the results of my bloodwork yesterday at the vet were……turns out I’d lost a whole pound in four months since last checkup but the vet said I am in “remarkable” shape for practically 16! WOOT!
