Yo Adrian, this stinks!

AACKHHK!! My human is tryin' to strangle me!! Yeah, she calls it chin squiggles to make up for squirting toxic waste down my throat (she calls it antibiotics) and squeezing rancid slime in my ears (she calls it medicinal ointment). But there's only one way she can make it up to me for this mistreatment:
Yeah, yeah, I know I have to do this so my ears will get better, but I don't have to LIKE it, do I? She says the inside of my ears look like blue cauliflower, and abusing me like this twice a day will keep them from getting worse. Other than doing a kangaroo impersonation and leaping all over the house after she dumps stuff in my orifices, and then boxing my cat staff in frustration, I'm trying to put up with it.
And I try to look on the bright side. I'm a tough guy like my namesake, Rocky Balboa, so I guess it's only fitting that I have cauliflower ears. But much more of this abuse and, Yo Adrian, this Italian Stallion is outta this house of torture and headin' to Italy to live with Tiffany, Fred & Holly!!

Good job Rocky, you can do it! You have the Eye of the TIGER! I am very proud of you.

Oh, Rocky, we must learn how to read the phone book! I feel for you, man.

But I hope you feel better soon!

I am glad to hear the v-e-t found out some treatment for your ears, Rocky! You will just have to put up with it I'm afraid, the humans think they are doing it for your own good!

Rocky, I know, it sucks big-time, but after the medicine starts to work - oh, sorry, toxic waste and rancid slime, your ears should feel tuna-boat loads better! I hope you enjoyed getting to stick your WHOLE HEAD in that bag of food! I'd love it if Daddy would let me do that. I bet that smelled like kitty heaven! Hang in there champ - you're a fighter, I can tell!

Toxic waste and rancid slime, indeed. :) Be a man Rocky, you know it makes sense!

Tara said...

Rocky, sounds like you are already feeling a bit better, back to your tough, spunky self! I know all that yucky squirty stuff in places where it doesn't belong is no fun, and you don't need to like it, just tolerate it. We are all pulling for you!

Toxic waste and rancid slime? Is that what the VET said to use? I hope I don't end up with that problem.

Hang in there, Rocky. You're one tough kittie, you should be able to handle a little rancid slime.

Good to know you're getting back to the old Rocky.

Rascal said...

Humans are so weird. Good thing you're tough enough to put up with them.

Rocky, so sorry to hear that taking the medication is a pain. You are a very tough, brave cat.

As for me, well Sphynx get used to having their ears cleaned regularly, being bathed weekly, and having their nails trimmed a lot, from the time we are young kittens, so it becomes rather commonplace. (That still doesn't mean I enjoy it, but I don't put up too much of a fight.) If you've never had it done, and all of a sudden you need to have your ears messed with, then I can see it being even more uncomfortable! At least I'm accustomed to it.

Although it's a pain, be good to your human. We all want your ears to feel better, and what she's doing will help that!

Many healing purrs being sent your way.
