Perl has had a slightly inflamed eye for several days now, so I took her in to get it checked out today. The vet used a bright yellow-green dye to check for problems. Before, I had a cat with a reddish eye. Now I have an impressive zombielike cat which appears to be leaking green slime. Lovely.
Perl enjoyed visiting the vet, and purred loudly throughout. She seemed to consider it a confirmation of her Very Important status. Fortunately, the problem is not serious and she just needs some eye drops. I am hoping that she will consider eye drops to be another mark of her extreme Importance, and not object to them too strongly.

Perl is our white-faced Tortie girl, so the drops looked particularly impressive leaking over her lovely clean white face!
I don't seem to have a Perl icon so have some Bungles as Yama Bungle is being a right PITA this morning and keeps leaping about and knocking things on the floor.
One of my former kitties, Cleo, used to purr very loudly at the vet. Unfortunately, it was a phenomena the vet referred to as 'nervous purring'. She was clearly not a happy camper at the time. And the purring kept her heart murmur from being diagnosed for a couple of years, as the vet couldn't get much out of the stethoscope but bzzzzzzz, bzzzzzz, bzzzzzzz....
