Yoda Ears and Flu Shots

Donkey betrayed me on Friday.  On the way home from work he diverted me into the V-E-T.  

It's all very well for him, F does his re-shoeing and stuff at home; and he never gets jabbed.

I got jabbed again, but not before the V-E-T had checked my ears, my teeth, my heart, my temperature.... She announced I have another ear infection and I'm getting the dreaded eardrops twice a day (again).  I do my best to flatten my ears to stop it happening but it just makes my humans laugh and call it 'Yoda Ears'.


Who (or what) is Yoda?

Humans are due another round of 'flu jabbings themselves.  I bet no one checks their ears, teeth, hair follicles, fingernails.....  In fact I strongly suspect that the less their 'vets' have to know about health problems that are not 'flu related, the happier their 'vets' are.

    Yeah, Tigger, I too suspect VETs are way more thorough than vets (see how the animal version deserves the caps?) Sorry you had to endure all that and am sending some POTP that the ear thing clears up quick sticks... but am glad to see a post. I was starting to fret... hugs and whiskeries, YAM-aunty xxx

    1. Dear YAM-aunty, F says the VET is thorough because I refuse to answer questions about how I'm feeling. I'd feel a lot better if it wasn't the VET asking..... Fz & Pz Mr T

  2. I can not tell you how happy this post makes me feel, not the fact you have an infection, but that you are OK... yesterday I realized it had been a week since you posted and freaked out, I thought something was wrong. lots of POTP coming your way for the ear thing and i agree, it is a lot like Yoda ears.. that mean old donkey deposited you where you did not want to go but now you will feel better and can ride donkey on more adventures to share with us... we are now fully vacinated with 3 covid jabs and the flu jab and all is well....

    1. F gets number 3 on 4 January. Mr B has to fly back to UK for his number 3. That too is January. Humans are becoming fixated with jabbings and conversations about 'plague'. (I refuse to call it by the name they have given it - I'm tired of that word, and of their conversations about it.)

  3. oh Tigger visits to the vet are for your own good, got to keep you healthy. Bruno doesn't mind vet visits but Mr Cat howls the whole time. She's a drama queen though.

    1. There was a drama queen at the vet as we were leaving. Owners of drama queens can't believe that I just go to the VET sitting on a Donkey, rather than trapped in a box.
