Sad Kitty

I'm a bit off at the moment, because my beloved cat isn't doing so great. I took him to the vet a few weeks ago because he was losing a lot of weight, and it turned out he has an overactive thyroid and he's been on meds ever since. HOWEVER he had his follow up last Friday and he's lost more weight, and he's not eating much now. I'm worried. I know he's really old but I'm just not ready (though, well I ever be?) to let go yet. He's honestly the sweetest cat I've ever known. He loves to cuddle and he purrs all the time. I do feel that it could be ok though, because the vet thinks he's still happy, so hopefully even if something is wrong it can be sorted out!

Cats on the Internet

The joys of Facebook turned up this tonight: http://theoatmeal.com/comics/cat_vs_internet (You'll have to copy and paste this into a new window....hyperlinking hates me right now).

I laughed. I love cat humour. I love it so much that if I stay home on a Friday night to "study" I'll spend at least some of that time looking at LOLCats or something similar. I'm curious though; how come there are so many cat pictures and videos on the net and so few dog ones (at least relative to cats)? Dogs are hilarious in real life, but somehow they're less funny on the internet. I don't know why, but somehow this makes me go "meh":



and that was the funnies dog picture I could come up with in a quick Google search. But this makes me LOL:

Who am I kidding? A quick Google search of Cat + Internet yields a lot.

Damn you distracting internet cats!
