Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / January 2007One week to go......
One week from today I will take my State Board Exam for the RVT. I'm trying to study, but the cats keep getting in the way. A few minutes ago, I was reviewing horse anatomy and common diseases when Mischief walks across my desk and sprawls across my notes. Me: "MISCHIEF!!" (she rolls on her side, starts kneading the desk, and looks up at me with those green eyes) Mischief: "But aren't I beeeauuuutiful??" Me: "Ok, fine, but just for a little bit" I petted her and scritched her chin, but then she started drooling on my notes. Me: "Ok, that's IT, off you go. Come on now, lets go, OFF" (Mischief reluctantly gets up and jumps onto my computer monitor with her tail hanging over the monitor) She's still there as I'm trying to type this with her tail in the way. *sigh* And yesterday, Mayhem jumped onto the desk too and I had her sitting on my notes while Mischief was sitting on my monitor. How am I supposed to study like this? Hmph! little buggers.......

Before I got an LCD monitor several years ago, my Cindy used to spend hours draped over my monitor (usually with a paw or a tail strategically placed to annoy me!) She was on tapazole at the time and seemed to be having a bad reaction; her skin ulcerated on her elbows and the points of her hocks, leaving a bloody mess wherever she sat. It was horrible. Once I got rid of my CRT and she couldn't sit there anymore, her skin problems cleared up very quickly. She's also been anemic for years and her marrow now has pretty much shut down. I attribute a lot of her health problems to that time spent sitting on the monitor; that radiation ain't good fer ya!

I've had several cats who spent a lot of time on top of my monitor without any adverse reactions. Joy >It could have been the combination of the tapazole and the heat from the > monitor.

A cat is unquestionably being exposed to a lot of radiation sitting on top of the monitor like that (do you know how a CRT actually works?). I enjoyed having my little companion up there but I'm really sorry now that I let her do it. I know it wasn't good for her. She's a lot better off in my lap and she can cause even more distraction that way!

Place cat on lap and identify parts while scritching the general area. Now pretend its a horse. Or a dog. Or whatever. Jo Very true, maybe she wanted me to study CAT anatomy instead. She's asleep in my lounge chair, so i'm taking advantage of the time, until she feels needy again. Kristi Dang it, i spoke too soon Now Mayhem is on my desjk; abnd nudging my hands as I type. ;;b;h t I'm TRYING TO STUDY YOU LITTLE BUGGERS!!!!! Now get off my jbo;aio;; book! *sigh* Kristi vgchjjjjjjm tthat was Myahem walking on the keyboard khlllj > Very true, maybe she wanted me to study CAT anatomy instead. > > She's asleep in my lounge chair, so i'm taking advantage of the time, > until she feels needy again. > > Kristi Of course!

Purrs that you ace the exam. Your little ones are just trying to help. (Yeah, right!) SignatureSam, closely supervised by Mistletoe I had a similar experience with Demon, last night. The temp is 13F, and I'm tromping through about six inches of snow to get to their door. I felt something around my ankles, there is the little black and white cat. Near to tripped and fell a couple times, he was so, well, so underfoot. We both went into the house, and he insisted on some loving up. Looks a bit like Stosh, but about half the size. And not at all claws and teeth. SignatureChristopher A. Young You can't shout down a troll.
