it was that subject or Spongebob Squarepants, the molester. (more on that later)

Either way it was better than how the day started at 7AM. Half awake and dying from a migraine, I stumble into the bathroom. No mouse in the trap, good maybe. Hmmm did I put the trap that close to the hole in the wall. That might make the mouse drag it into the wall or against it.

Puke. Find migraine pills. Realize, crap these are my last two pills. Then I hear the sounds of thumping. Put on glasses. Hmm, the trap is moving. I use the toilet brush to try and pull it out. Yeah, the mouse managed to drag the trap to the wall and 90% of the mouse is IN the wall.

I try to wrestle the trap and the mouse out. Mouse escapes. Somewhere in my wall is a sticky assed mouse missing all the skin on his foot (still in trap. want to tell me more about how humane this is?) I move the trap and shut the door because Kanda has to stay in. It's vet day.

Go to the hospital since for once I remembered it was blood draw day for my endocrinology appt tomorrow. I get there and the computers crash. At least I have a book. My hospital has its own coffee house with the world's slowest and stupidest barrista. 25 min to do 3 mochas.


Manage to get thru class. Graded OPEN NOTE quizzes where two missed half. yeah... the rest did fine but seriously half?

Come home. no mouse. Put Kanda in his box. He doesn't like this but he did okay in the car. So much so I think we're going to go driving to keep him happy and used to being in the car.

Vet is PACKED. There's a German SHorthaired Pointer who's never been trained to do anything. A black lab pup who wanted me in the worst way. Barked until I paid attention. She licked me from knee to toe and from fingers to elbows. An older couple with the FATTEST Golden Retriever with a hot spot that I've ever seen (I commented to the vet about it, 145 lbs...yeah that's twice what that breed should weigh) and a kid with the most adorable pomerainan pup (black and white) ever (and I don't even like Poms).

No A/C in the place since it died. I still have my book thankfully because just before it was my turn in comes a kid and his dad and a blue heeler with a fishing lure embedded in its mouth (it stole a tackle box out of the garage). It wasn't even fussing. Naturally Lure-Dog has to go next AND be put out to get the fish hooks out.

Can we just say Kanda did NOT like having the Spongbob Squarepants thermometer stuck up his ass? It was like a 3 ringed circus trying to hold him down for this. I explained to Angie that he was a feral who I tamed and that his mom is a very sickly feral and I was afraid that he had FIV/Leukemia and Iknew he had worms. SHe agreed that we needed to test him before anything.

Kanda in the meantime is shaking hard and I tell him, bud, if you thought Spongbob was the worst thing that happened to you today, you're wrong. Actually he took the blood draw better than that but he has collapsing, rolling veins (so do I bub, just look at MY arm). He weighs under 3 pounds little bubby. But the good news is he's disease free. Bad news I'm out another 120$ in shots for him. He'll go in in a month to get his balls whacked. Give him time to get over his upper respiratory infection and put on weight.

He didn't want to leave. He decided Angie and her staff were aokay. He also wanted down to play with Sparky the pit bull who wandered in. Sparky has heart tattoos on her belly (doc has had so many dogs stolen she's tattoonig them in addition to lojacking them. She thinks someone probably made off with my cats. Kanda's sleeping now, all full of antibiotics, dewormer and vaccines.

Heart tattoos? Wow. Dog fighting is a big thing where you are, huh? I don't see the tattoos stopping anyone from stealing/fighting the dog, mind you. Or using it for bait. Man, that makes me sick.

Poor Kanda.

Die, rodent, die.

Hope your migraine is...going away?

...wait, you thought a Pom was cute? You?

morelike people are stealing spayed animals as pets so they don't have to pay for them. Most of them that get found around here aren't in fighting rings but in someone's house

Mine are tattooed with numbers on their inner thighs. Their tattoos are documented by my vet and also on their microchip accounts. So if someone stole them (which happens a lot around here - houses get broken into and the only things missing are the small dogs) and scanned them in, it is just one more piece of evidence that the dog is mine. Permanent visible evidence.

yeah that's why she's doing it. If I could afford it, kanda could have his tatt

The problem, of course, being that someone could take your pets into a vet who doesn't check for such things. One of my acquaintances rescued a Great Pyranese with a chip, tattoo and collar - the dog ran off and it was by sheer luck her blacksmith found the dog at another farm, over 20 miles away. He said to the farm owners he knew who the dog belonged to, and was willing to take it back to her owner, but the people at the farm refused to let the dog go. "We found her, we've been taking care of her, she's ours." Meanwhile, the neighbors of the farm owners wanted the dog, too, saying "She's a stray, she showed up at our house first!"

By the time the blacksmith told the actual owner, the dog had run again and who knows where she disappeared to.

True, people can and will sometimes do bad things, but legally it gives me more ground to stand on to get them back.

yeah, i agree. I've thought about getting my trio tattooed before. Maybe when I get some money built up.

Maybe when I scrape together the $$$ to get Rogue's teeth cleaned, I'll ask the vet if they do tattoos.

nods, probably way out of our price range

I'm sure. If my vet even offers such a thing. Dr. Paula probably does.

Boss's younger Golden, Koko, has a green tattoo on her belly to show she's been fixed, at least.

Lojack a dog? How do you do that?

Now I have heard of people getting their animals tattooed. Some pure breds actually have an id tatt on the inside of their lower lip.
