The Looping of Poop

So today was the first visit at a qualified professional, and I have to say, it was a good visit. Well, it may have been better than good.

First off, Bandit won the hearts of everyone there by crawling out of his rising sun tote and peering at them with a slightly tilted head. He then investigated a two-month old puppy in the waiting room. that alien-looking dog was quivering so hard... I have never been so proud. Yes Bandit, you have accomplished so much with your intense lazy-eye stare of death.

The actual examination was up next. He rather did enjoy the scale (he's a whopping 2 pounds, 8 ounces) and the de-worming medication (awesomely liver flavored) but after a butt-thermometer, talk of "looping poop," and a booster shot... I can safely say he doesn't like the vet. The act of looping poop is where the Vet sticks a thing in the cat's butt and tears shit out of it.

We walked away with a kitten starter kit, free bag of science diet kitten food, poop vial (I passed on the looping of poop because I don't want to violate him any more than he needs to be), and the knowledge that this Afrikan child is 9 weeks old and counting.
