Today, while visiting the vet, she viciously bit the vet in the hand (and drew blood!) two separate times. I’ve been bitten by her once before but nothing like the way she acted at the clinic. crazy cat.

man, these vet bills are adding up already. The wife really should have thought this through before taking in this pet.

the meds, shots, antibiotics and prescription cat food???? geez.

I’ve got more to say on being a new cat owner but I’ll save it for a future post.

..stay tuned..

Apparently, she was at the local pet shop looking to get a lil’ parakeet or something but wound up being lured by the calls of a cute kitten. I told her to stay away from that place. I just knew she’d walk out of there with something cuddly and adorable. I guess this’ll be an early Christmas gift for the boys since you can’t just stuff a kitten in a closet until Christmas morning. or can you? :P

so, any tips on raising a cat? I’m not really a cat-lover myself.
