Gidget, Lynn doesn't know the artist, but that is a delightful picture.
Which kittie really honestly likes to visit da vet? None if they are all honest kitties. You are young fur gittin' a senior check up. I'm gonna be 15 and don't like all that extra stuff they do to us kitties. You were brave and so glad da mum cuddled you in bed after dark.

Gidget, I'm sorry you and your mom had to go through that. I'm glad you're doing well, though!

Derry used to be so stressed he'd get sick, as in not eat for a few days, which always meant having to take him back, poor baby. My own stress did not help, so I feel for you both! ❤️❤️

Those vets and vet techs really get up-close and purrsonal, Gidget!
Your tests were good though, so hopefully no need for another visit to that awful place anytime soon.
A Hockney story: was on a garden walk, and a few folks allowed visitors into their homes, and this one had a Hockney.
The dude was so pleased when it was correctly identified.
Have seen many Hockney's in person at museums, but one in someone's house: wow!

Glad you and your mum both had good tests. XO

Glad your Mom got some good news about her head. Don't be in too big a hurry to lose another pound Gidget. My older kitties lose weight that they aren't supposed to, so it won't hurt you to keep yours a bit longer.

Poor baby. I'm very thankful that Mudpie isn't that bothered by vet visits. So glad you both got good news out of your medical tests!

Smudge said...

My paws are crossed that that damn thing doesn't grow any more, Gidget. Sad about David Hockney. That artwork is beautiful.

Zoolatry said...

Hockney's art was a joyful smile for the world ~ happy oh happy day for both "de Mom and de Gidget" after A+ doctor check-ups, keep up the good work, ladies.

If you come home from the VET it was a good trip. We have not always been so lucky. Glad you are doing well.

I'm so very glad you passed all your tests. It's not easy for humans to go to the human doctor, either, but we have to do it sometimes.

Charlee: "Poor Gidget! I am right there with you, I hate the vet too! Although it sounds like you may hate it even more than I do!"
Chaplin: "That is excellent news that your mom's aneurysm is stable! And it's especially great that they know it's there and can monitor it! Our Dada has an aneurysm at the terminus of his right internal carotid artery but his went undetected until it ruptured in 2019, which was a pretty harrowing experience for all of us."
Lulu: "Yeah, he says zero stars out of ten, would not recommend."

The J-Cats said...

Glad to hear that you passed all your tests, Gidget. Also, that your Mum's aneurysm is stable.
Mummy saw a Hockney retrospect at the National Gallery in London the year before last. She remembers he also designed some very vibrant opera sets.

Kitties Blue said...

Gidget, you poor girl. Te look on your face in the video says it all ... you were definitely perturbed. Hope it was a never-ending supply of treats the remainder of the day. Congrats on passing all your tests. A brain aneurysm sounds super scary even if it is small. Happy to hear it is remaining stable.
