"She doesn't like getting her temperature taken.... you'll need help - she fights" I tell her, giving her fair warning.
"What if I just sneak it in?" She asks. She is after all the expert, she deals with cats all day long.
"Um, you'll need help." I warn her again... she's new, she's never seen the likes of Sally.
I don't blame them, the vets. She's so pretty, a bit pudgy. Who would know, just by looking at her, that under her feathery whiskers hides a mouth of pearly-white daggers?
Who would think that her four fluffy little white paws were merely sheaths for 20 machete-like claws?
Poor vet techs... they didn't stand a chance. They still don't know what her temperature is.

I can't stop laughing. That's so funny. And Sally has the ultimate smug 'I shoed 'em, I showed 'em good' expression on her little face. Her Majesty is not amused.
On the bright side, I think the fact that she can hold off a whole bunch of vet techs is ample evidence that she's strong, well-nourished and the picture of good health.
Yikes!!! hehe! They should have listened to you! ;)
She's adoreable. Good for her, I wouldn't let them do that to me either if I was a cat.
Look at that look on her face! She's completely in charge!
We had a cat that got a look like that WHEN the thermo was shoved up his bum. He's long gone, but thank Sally for reviving that memory with her intolerance of the rectal thermometer..hee hee!
LOL - it's so true, Her Majesty was not pleased. The vet did bring in a man to help, he had a towel. Like she couldn't shred that thing in a heart-beat. No they tried, but she fought them off valiently. Sally looks innocent, but she spent time in the mean cages of the Thurston County Animal Shelter. She's no pussy! =P
