Here we see, once again, the shiny shelter of the veterinary sink being occupied by a foolish feline face. This kitty looks like it means business though; this is not its first rodeo. It’s pulled its ears back down against his head and refuses to blink those intimidating green eyes.
Be careful coming after this kitty, because you won’t be able to take him sitting down. You will be punished for your treachery. We wonder if those claws stayed sheathed when the vet came in. We highly doubt it. This cat has made its feelings pretty clear. All we can say is that we’re glad we aren’t the vet in this situation.
I Said I Was Sorry About Eating the Wallet
If this puppy spoke, we're sure it would have a lot to say right now. It would apologize for chewing on those shoes, eating that wallet, drooling on your work outfit, peeing in the house, or barking at the neighbors. He'd apologize for it all, everything and anything, right about now.
It was all out of love, so please, don't feel like you have to punish the poor fellow. "Your shoes will never meet my mouth again. I will stay away from bagels and table scraps. The house will be spotless as long as you take me back there immediately!"
Can't We Just Go Home?
This may be a tiny little baby, but this puppy has enough experience to know exactly where it is at the moment. What's about to happen will not be enjoyable, delicious, or appreciated. Those puppy eyes are doing everything they can to beg off this visit by being huge and adorable.
It must be hard to be its owner, to deny this face anything it asks for, especially sympathy. But mom's only doing this because she cares, little dog. It will end soon, and you can go back to being a happy and carefree family once again. Just hang in there!
Don't You Dare
Don't judge an animal by its size. This cat came ready to fight. "Come closer," it dares you, "just try me today!" Don't underestimate what a cat is capable of, especially when they are backed into a corner. That cuteness is only a cover. They know better.
This cat knows it won't win, but that doesn't mean it'll go down without a fight. You have made it very angry, and it's going to make sure you know it. You will know it now in the office, and probably on the ride home, too. Good luck getting anything done for the rest of the week.
I'm Going to Need A lot More Than That
The treat trick is a time-tested tradition by pet parents and vets alike. But some pets are wiser than others. They understand that the human hand is only offering a prize because they want something in return. This poor creature may have fallen for these falsehoods before, but it's not going to fall victim to them again.
That delicacy is not worth the cold shiny table and the poking that's so likely to come after. This pup seems to be saying, "But it does smell good. And I know it tastes good. But I think you need to give me more. More treats will mean more cooperation. It will be a good deal for both of us, I think."
