Dot usually likes to be in the middle of any hoomin activity around
the house.  When I come out of the shower, she always comes to me with
a distressed "ack ack ack squeeeek".  Today, she also got to supervise
the assembly of a treadmill, which she liked, and got to have TED
stick things up her butt, which she didn't like!

So today, I got a treadmill, which weighs 217 lbs, or about 99 kg.  I
was trying to discourage Dot from doing anything dangerous, but she
thought it was such a great adventure!  She hid in the boxes, pounced
on tools, and supervised the entire operation.  It's too bad she'll
probably never see me use it, since I suspect that any kitty that
happens to get under it while it's operating would get scalped!  I was
planning on putting it in the room where Buster currently lives, so
it's in limbo right now.

After the treadmill was completed and Dot was sleeping contentedly
next to it, Dot was catnapped and whisked off to TED!

The past couple of days, I've been suspicious of Dot's bowels because
I only seemed to get poops in Buster's litter, or in the main litter
box after Buster's been out.  TED says that Dot seems quite normal,
weighs 10-11 lbs (although that doesn't sound correct considering her
heft), and has a normal feeling belly and bladder, and no apparent
blockage from feeling up her rectum.  She says that she's probably
just a grazer and maybe not yet settled in.

Oh well, Dot doesn't seem too traumatized. :)
