Last night, Mom went downstairs and brought the PTUs up to the living room. We smelled them and then discussed the plans for avoidance in the morning. By morning, we had forgotten...
Around 11 AM Mom grabbed Jo Jo and stuffed her in the small PTU. Mom did NOT realize one of the zippers was half undone. Jo Jo was out that hole so fast, she was a streak! STRAIGHT to the basement (the one door she neglected to close). It took Mom 15 minutes to get Jo Jo back upstairs. Alex snagged her and in she went. Kozmo was resigned and his capture and sequestering was easy. Alex put them in the car. Kozmo says he and Jo Jo sang the songs of our people the whole journey (which may explain Mom's headache and her crankiness).
It snowed a lot last night and the roads were not fun, but it only took Mom about 15 minutes longer than usual. She got to town early enough to go to the grocery store. Mom bought the staples (wet cat food, dry cat food, cat treats, cat litter, dry dog food, creamer, chicken and broccoli) and then took Jo Jo and Kozmo to the vet.
Jo Jo got let out of her PTU furrst. She got weighed (she is a chunky monkey), her teeth are purrfect and she is in terrific shape (other than being fat super fluffy). She then got her shots and she was furry happy to go back into her PTU. Next was Kozmo. He has lost a KILO (that is 2.4 pound) since his visit for shots last year. He says they took him in a back room and stole his blood. Then he got unceremoniously stuffed back into his PTU then Mom put both of them in the car for the trip home.

Mom let them out of their PTUs at the car. Jo Jo HATES the snow, but she did stop to use the front flower bed before coming in. I, Marv, thought they smelled funny and I thought about chasing them around but Jo Jo has furry fast whappy paws and Kozmo is despondent about having to take daily pills - as Mom suspected, Kozmo has thyroid problems, so I thought I would leave him alone too.
Mom is furry happy that Timmy Tom Cat's Dad wrote about how to get cats to take pills as it has been a long long time since Mom had to do that! (Thank you Angel Pete).
