Miles and Timber had their annual physicals at Island Cats Vet this morning.   Here are some highlights:

1. Miles scratches the BeJesus out of me and escapes his Sherpa bag four times before we even leave the house.

2. Miles and Timber sing a tragic duet on the way to the Vet.  Timber’s plaintive cries sound cheerful in comparison to Miles who, like a Prima Donna has a mastery of projection, register, volume and puts forth no small amount of effort.  He can clearly enunciate half a dozen or more consonants, all the vowels and quite a few exotic phones that I can’t even represent by any combination of the English alphabet.

3. We arrive and they both clam up.  The vet tech remarks to Dr. Marshall, “I’ve never heard such a quiet Bengal come through our office before!”

4.  Miles gets a clean bill of health and a Rabies booster and immediately volunteers to ply his tricks for the staff for more treats.

5.  Timber gets her exam and Rabies booster – Miles gets up onto exam table to “help out” by sniffing her bouquet, the vet, the nurse and the syringe… OK no treats here.  Please proceed.

By the end of the visit I was very proud of all three Cubs who in the past two days have been into their vets for routine check ups and shots and are thankfully all robust, trim, bright eyed AND courteous!  Mom and Dad are so very lucky!!

We’re  healthy and trim!
