Binga needed a quick trip to the vet and my human had too much going on to pack me up and take me along too like the last time.
So Binga had to be checked out without me. My human was worried that I was going to go ballistic when she came home. But who can blame me? There’s nothing ickier than that “old vet smell.” It always takes days for me to calm down when Boodie comes home from the vet, and my human knew Binga was not going to take my behavior lying down.
Suffice it to say that I have no idea why Binga went to the vet, but I don’t think she was very sick.

Ohh that is really very interesting, we never notice even if one of us goes to the vet.. I think it has something to with Mummy showering us often… sighs…
Good news Binga!
We sure hope Binga is okay! Sparkle, I’m like you. Whenever Ernie has to go to the v-e-t now, I hafta go along too. If I don’t, I go crazy when he comes home, hissing and growling and smacking him. This will go on for days! So now I always hafta go too. And when I’m there, mom makes me get out of the PTU and she asks the v-e-t to put v-e-t stink all over me!!

Well we understand very well Sparkle. Us humans have these problems too sometimes. For instance, I HATE dentist smell. If someone has come from the dentist I can smell it and I stay away from them ’cause it just smells awful.
We’re glad Binga is okay. We think the way to solve that problem is to never go to the v-e-t!
We hope Binga is okay. When Eric was ill and had to keep going to the vet, I hissed and growled at him for nearly three weeks.

My human can’t resist pointing out how much better the photos look with the new camera (in this post) than the old camera (old vet post: https://www.sparklecat.com/diary/two-for-one-check-up).
I hope Binga is okay – and you could be a bit more sympathetic, you know.
We hope Binga is okay and that all the vet smell has rubbed off by now.
ya know… Angus once gave us some advice… put vanilla on your heads before and after a vet visit. my mommeh tried it on me and Baby Audrey, and it realleh did help.
Blech. We hate that smell too. VERY unpleasant!
We sure hope Binga is all right and nothing going on.Tell Mom to put some vicks on your nose Sparkle, then you won’t be able to smell Binga and you might leave her alone.
Hope you have a great day. Take care Binga,
Um. I am not sure what happened here. Binga went to the vet, but isn’t sick?
Binga looks so cute in these photos! And we hope you calm down soon, Sparkle. Tasha the tortie just recently decided to start freaking out after the the boys have to go to the vet and it is NOT fun. We don’t want to take her with them because she is awful at the vet. The vet suggested that the humans take their dirty clothes and rub them all over the cat that had to go to the vet (yuck!) but it doesn’t seem to help all that much (you know torties!)
Yes,we TOTALLY understand about the old vet smell…We all gave King a few whaps here and there when he got home. Poor guy was all doped up too and couldn’t even whap us back! Glad there isn’t anything wrong with Binga. (also…Be vewy, vewy caweful…Tortie’s hae MAJOR attitudes!)
Yes, V-E-T smell is icky but it’s really no reason to go ballistic. Just…..shred some furniture. That will make it OK.
My friend… don’t mess with the Binga. Just my advice.
We don’t get too upset about the icky vet smell, not even after one of us comes home from being there all day (recent dental surgeries for all of us), so we hope you really won’t take days this time to calm down. We also hope Binga’s visit was just routine!
