Only a few short ones remain on the left.

What's the deal?

Where Are My Whiskers?

Well, the good news is my mom is home! She got home yesterday. We won't discuss how she came home, hugged and petted us, and went right back out again for a long time. But, she is home today, emptying the bags she brought back.

My mom and dad noticed that my longest whiskers from the left side of my face are suddenly missing! I don't even know what happened. My mom thinks a bird or something go to me, but no, I don't think so! I'm quicker than that! So, just waiting to see if they grow back. Very strange!

I'm heading back to the fan. It is so hot here...still!

P.S. My mom wasn't able to get us souvenirs, so she bought some special beef dinner for us last night!

***I didn't lose my whiskers in the fan. It's up on a table. I lie on my mom's bed and catch the breeze, but I can't get anywhere near it!***

My mom's going away for several days. She's been home a lot recently, but she's been very busy working on a "project." I'll post when she gets home.

It's Hot!

Man, it is so hot here! I keep hearing "end of summer" blah, blah, blah...but it's hotter than it has been all summer. It isn't even cooling down too much at night. I've been lying in front of a fan when I can. It's just too hot to run around as much as I like to.

In other news, I have to go see the vet tomorrow. I'm healthy, but I'm due for a shot which isn't fun. I really don't mind going so much though. I meet lots of nice people in the waiting room and sometimes I even get a treat. The worst thing is that awful metal table I have to stand on. Sometimes I complain and they get a towel for me!

***Update: Monday,11:30 am: Things went okay at the vet. That metal table really does bug me though! I got a few shots, had some blood drawn, and had a foxtail removed from my ear. Ugh! Now I think I'll settle in for a nice long nap!
