More Batovan
It's like having a baby - everything he does is adorable!
Except crapping in the carrier on the way to the vet this morning. Not so cute. He did look slightly ill - could've had something to do with my driving & the bumpy backroads - before fouling the thing. But, somehow he managed to be sweet & still while I was stopped in the parking lot (fortunately empty) of an ice cream shop, clutching him to me with poopy paws (yes, poo on my shirt, poo on my arm), dragging shitty towels (fortunately old) out of the carrier. I could see the neighbors of the ice cream shop, who happened to be outside, watching me covertly. Who knows what they thought, probably that I was going to fling him out into the street. But, no, he just had to endure the rest of the drive on hard, slippery plastic rather than soft raggy towels. He was good-natured about it.
Adorable I tell ya.
He has little bulgy eyes, big pink ears & a very fluffy tail. He looks like an albino squirrel with blue eyes. And, despite being deaf, he is very, very vocal. Very. Something I've also noticed with Vince who's meow sounds like a dying buzzard. This little guy's just sounds like a very shrill, very loud little cat.
Anyway - clean bill of health from the vet other than dirty ears - I left them dirty just for the vet - and that he's on the upswing from an upper respiratory infection. I figure he had that due to a big week for a sheltered kitty & didn't worry too too much about it. I was hoping he'd send me out with some amoxi tabs so I could have them on hand, but no luck since the kitty is recovering nicely.
I'm going to send that Pat lady some photos along with a very warm & heartfelt thank you card. She probably knows I was delighted, but I don't think she quite knows to what extent. I have to give her a very truthful opinion on how she's brought this little boy up - he's so sweet, loving & personable! She must've done something right! I'm glad to know there are people out there like that.
Even if she can't spell Beethoven.
