synnoveaevaelSo Juliet had a vet visit the other day, and they told us she had gingivitis and to bring her in for a cleaning, but they needed to do blood work since they put them under for cleanings. Okay, sure.
Tuesday, Andrew calls and finds out about the times we need to stop feeding her, watering her, etc. They tell him "Oh... the doctor will call you about her blood work." Andrew smartly didn't tell me this since I was on my way to class.
No teeth cleaning for her! But the vet calls back and it turns out Juliet has hyperthyroidism. She's now on meds! Half a pill twice a day. I was a wee bit nervous on how to give her a pill, so we went out and got a thousand treats to stuff the pill in.
When it was time for her first one, we folded it up in a treat she liked and snarfed it right down. SERIOUSLY???
Same thing this afternoon.
However. Ha. Tonight.
Andrew folds the pill in the treat. So, she was chewing on her drugged treat and it broke apart and the pill fell out. So Andrew jammed it in the next treat. And it fell out of her mouth. So I took another treat and smeared the now soggy treat on it and all the crumbles of the leftovers in my hand. She licked the treat off my hand and then made the most AMAZING FACE.
HAHAHAHAHHA.
Guess that tasted bad. So I gave her a couple different treats to compensate for the taste. She's awesome. This was a lot easier this afternoon.
Heh.
Further. WHY AM I WATCHING THIS?!?!? This season finale of Grey's is fucking depressing.
