Oreo’s eyes pt. III

The vet looked at Oreo. Oreo looked back. Quietly I whistled the intro from “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly”.

“It’s conjunctivitis.” said the vet at maximum volume. I think she thought I was deaf. Then she proceeded to polish Oreo’s eyeballs with a water soaked piece of cotton wool.

Oreo was not amused. But she didn’t bite, claw or hiss at anyone.

She gets eye-drops every 12 hours, if I can ever persuade her to come out of her new nest and stop sulking. Trudy also wants to know why I am now so interested at peering at her eyes all the time.

Oreo also met a lot of random people, many of who said something along the lines of “Ugh!! Rats! Oh I hate rats! Oh isn’t she sweet!”

Oreo deigned to emit Kyootrinos* until we got back home. SHe may never forgive me**, especially when I start pinning her down and dripping eyedrops into her eyes.

* Kyootrinos along with Kyuons and the theoretical Fuzzy-Snuggon are jsut a few of the sub atomic particles of Cute. The long term exposure to a Kyootrino generator can result in buying MLP, or plush kitten dolls, and mis-use of the colour pink.
** Rats will remember an insult for hours, or until you make with the yummies and back rubs.
