A Thought for Petey

John has just come back from leaving Petey at the vet to get his teeth cleaned. Last year the vet said Petey wouldn't survive a cleaning. This year a different vet said he could survive the cleaning and if we didn't get his teeth cleaned, he wouldn't live well for the rest of his days. So, we reluctantly agreed.

I don't have a good feeling about this and neither does Petey. He hid from John this morning as if he really understood when we told him last night that he was going to the vet today. He was most unhappy when John left him.

Petey will be at the vet all day. They'll call at some point after the cleaning to let us know how he did. We can pick him up in the afternoon after the anesthesia wears off. I'll post his status tonight. In the meantime, spare a good thought for the old Pete-ster.
