Coco Puff is usually a very laid back cat. If he were any more laid back, he'd be a stuffed animal. However, Dr. Lee said he dug into him when they were in the back room and when he administered his shots. We couldn't get blood from him the last time we were there. Dr. Lee said he's never seen anything like it. CP has a way of turning his paws under so that he couldn't get to them. So he tried to get it from his neck and those paws came out fast and smacked him. I just couldn't believe it and I said "If you will allow me to stay w/him while you do it, I'll bet he'll be fine". He said "Ok, let's do it right now". Dr. Lee shaved a little fur and CP was fine and just as Dr. Lee was ready to insert the needle "WHAM!" CP gave it to him good, plus he hissed and growled. Dr. Lee laughed but I was shocked. I've never heard CP hiss or growl. Never! He must really have felt bad to do that. Dr. Lee said "We tried the towel, the sack, a muzzle, nothing worked. It just isn't worth it right now to stress him out like that. He's too sick". I'm still in shock. He's feeling better now, no gurgling but I'll be listening. I'm going to take Karen's advice and steam him in the bathroom tonight.

Thanx for all the good wishes, everyone. They mean a lot to me.
