We’ll be a bit of an empty house today. Three cats have dental cleanings! Olive, Sophie and Woodrow are off to the vet this morning. Poor Olive, an unplanned vet appointment last Friday and now a planned one today. I’ll be dropping them off at 7:00 this morning and will likely be able to pick them up around 3:00 or 4:00 in the afternoon. They’ll be plenty mad at me. Well, at least Olive anyway. I’m pretty sure that Woodrow thinks Ross and I can do no wrong. And Sophie will just think it’s a fun adventure.
Here’s what the cats were chatting about this past week!
Watch Your Back
Mama: How long are you going to stay mad at me Olive?
Olive: Forever. I can’t believe you made me go to the vet today!
Mama: But you weren’t eating.
Olive: Liar! I started eating as soon as you made the appointment this morning.
Mama: Well, I just wanted to be safe and take you anyway.
Olive: Safe? Yeah…you better sleep safely tonight.

We’re back from the vet. Olive was already eating again before we took her. So, we’re just monitoring her and have her on an appetite stimulant. I think she just likes to keep us on our toes. (UPDATE: She has been eating fine all week. No appetite stimulant needed.)
Sleeping In
Sophie: Mama, can you bring me breakfast in bed this morning? I’m sleeping in with daddy.
Mama: You already had breakfast at 5:30 this morning.
Sophie: And?

Piggy Present!
Mama: Look at what your biggest admirer Miss Stacy sent you! A piggy! She wanted you to have this after you didn’t get bacon on your Gotcha Day.
Woodrow: I love my piggy! Thank you, Auntie Stacy! But why did she send a piggy?
Mama: Where do you think bacon comes from?
Woodrow: The bacon farm. Duh, Mama!
Mama: No, silly. It comes from pigs.
Woodrow: Gasp!
Mama: Do you still want bacon?
Woodrow: (whispering) Umm, yes. I’ll cover Piggy’s eyes.

Smooth Sophie
Mama: Sophie! Who tore open this bag of treats?
Sophie: Erm…I don’t know. Did you check with Woodrow?

Crinkle, Crinkle
Dexter: nom nom nom
Mama: Good packing paper?
Dexter: Yep, it’s a good batch. Really fresh, very crunchy. Can you add it to our auto-ship order?

Disappointed Tortie
Olive: Mama, we need to talk.
Mama: What’s up?
Olive: I’ve been very disappointed lately in the quality of your chin scritches.
Mama: Sorry, I’ll work on it.
Olive: Go practice on Sophie. She’s not a very discerning cat.

Handsome, Grumpy and Proud!
Mama: Hey there, Mr. Handsome.
Harley: Who dat? Me?
Mama: Yes, silly!
Harley: I’m confused. Am I handsome or silly?
Mama: You’re both. But usually grumpy.
Harley: And proud of it!

Bonus Friday Bloopers
These shots are from last weekend when I was trying to do a product photo shoot in the cat room. Woodrow grew bored and decided to go exploring. He slid open a storage bin and proceeded to hop in. You can see that Harley took advantage of it next.
The video is from Instagram stories.

Long weekend here in Canada, too! I think it’s the only one we share, consistently.
Yay! I hope you have a great long weekend, too!
I hope all goes well with the rest of the Vet appointments! Have a great long weekend!
That video is so cute……..and as usual, your crew doesn’t lack for poignant conversations! Happy weekend!
Hugs, Pam and Teddy too
Those are such great pictures. We love the picture of Woodrow, and his pink mouse. Hope all goes well at the vet. You all have a great day.
Hope the vet gives a group discount…! Poor Dexter, he so very subtly walks away from those Harley eyes in the video! Hope Olive continues to eat up, even after her dental.
They do! That’s why we’re doing three at once. Otherwise, we’d be crazy to take three. It was a beautiful symphony during the car ride this morning! Ha!
“let us sing you the song of our people”
I would have enjoyed a video of that.
Have a great weekend 💖
i love the photo of Olive looking disappointed! Amarula so often gives me the same look!! Good luck with the cleanings!
Eeek! 3 kitties with dentals? Hoping all went well!! xoxo
Sounds like you’re all okay after the dentist’s visit…MOL :D Loved you conversations and that video…MOL :D Pawkisses for a wonderful long weekend :) <3
Hope the vet visit went well for all.The video was very cute.
Have a lovely long weekend.
Fridays with all of you is one of our favorite things! Your conversations and photos always make us smile. :)
Dexter, we hear you about that paper. It’s nommy, for sure!
THREE cats at one time?!? I don’t envy you … taking two to the vet at the same time was more than enough. We hope everyone is doing well!
Purrs that everyone is back home safe and sound!
Hey guys,
Those unplanned vet visits really stink. Our Female Human wonders why we always wait until midnight on a weekend to get sick. What can I say, it’s an art. ‘Hope you are all recovered from your fang cleaning. But don’t let your humans off the hook, stretch out the guilt trip as long as you can!
Purrs & Head Bonks,
Oliver & The Tribe of Five
lol at the paper. there was a time when my living room was wall-to-wall amazon boxes and packing paper!
I love the photo of Olive with her paws crossed. How sweet of your friend to send you a piggy. Let me know if any of the cats need a visit from the Tooth Fairy.
We hope everybuddy is home now and did well with the dentals!
And they thought they were all going someplace nice together–not the vet, and even worse tooth cleaning! What a bummer! But it will be over and forgotten soon and not necessary for a long time hopefully. Happy 3 day weekend!
We hope all the dentals went well! And I hope they got the same pain meds I did. I was high for days! MOL
That is a sweet little piggy – and you are a sweet kitty to cover it’s eyes when you have your treats.
Wow, vet appointments so early. Best get the blasted things over with quickly.

Poor Woodrow! Harley definitely was not giving the bin back. :)
