Yesterday was an exciting Kitty Day. Around lunch I noticed the cats getting really interested in the fireplace, which was making a low buzzing sound. “Hmm, must be some bug,” I figured. I couldn’t see anything in there, so I tried to just block it off with a hamper to deter the kitties.
This doesn’t stop the Tenacious Hermione, who was still quite interested in the buzzing fireplace. It wasn’t long after when I hear a high-pitched “Mwelp!!!” and see Hermione scurrying away. I look back at the fireplace to see this big-ass wasp walking along the hearth. That bug stung my baby! I rolled up a TV Guide and killed the rat bastard, then checked on Hermione. She was pissed off but didn’t seem to have any adverse reactions to the sting. “I told you to stay away from the fireplace,” I said.
I go to mess on the computer for a while and see Renton head to the kitty box on my right. He comes back out, sits a minute, then heads back in. Back out, sits, goes back in a third time. He’s looking a bit disgruntled, so I’m thinking he’s backed up. Again. I wonder what he ate this time. We get to go to the vet later today to find out. I hope this won’t be a repeat of the Three-Enema Week (which I apparently never wrote about but I assure you it was quite an event).
