Phoebe goes to the Vet



Today phoebe took her first trip to the vet. Recently phoebe have been leave little blood marks all over my bathroom counter. Because of the size of the marks, it looked like it was coming from her paws. It started months ago, I thought it would heal by itself, by instead it only got worse.
This morning, I woke up and it looked that the blood spots were a whole lot worse.So this afternoon, I called the vet by my house and made an appointment. Now Phoebe's last time to the vet was when she was a small kitten and probably doesn't remember it. She took out both my hands when trying to get her in the travel cage. It took ange and myself to get her in that cage. we had to duck tape to help keep cage door shut. From my house to the vet she cried like she was in pain.
Once we got to the vet, I set her down on the bench, and that's when she started " I'm lost" kind of howl. Once I started talking to her as I sat next to her filling out the paper work, she didn't make another peep.We got into the room, and the techs opened the cage door to get her to take her weight. Phoebe was calm, quiet, and very easy going. She didn't freak out or run away, which I thought she was going to do. She was very good, They took her weight, and she made no hassle. Once the techs were out of the room, I sat down and she sat in my lap until the vet can in. The vet came in checked her paws, her bladder, took her in the back and gave her all her vaccines. She is in good health, and her paws weren't cut up. Her ears teeth and fur were good. and was even good when they took her temp rectally.She didn't bite, scratch, or wine the whole time. She was an excellent patient. I was very proud of my cat.
