My Target Run

Meows from Mudpie!

To start with a quick update, we're still waiting to hear back from the vet but my hearing appears to be improving. Starting on Sunday I was back to reacting with excitement to my favorite words - chicken, cheese, and squeezies! 

I briefly mentioned the other day that I accompanied Mommy on a Target run after my appointment on Friday. She had just been there on Tuesday and picked up a few Halloween items in the Dollar Spot but then she saw these little cuties on Facebook Thursday night. She remembered seeing them in the store but didn't realize there was a cat, so of course she had to go back. It wasn't that far out of the way on our way home so she just brought me along.

She didn't like leaving me alone in the car so she was happy to find it quickly. It was only $1!!! She said it's a good thing because she's spent so much money on my ears lately that's all she could afford. 

Very funny, Mommy. 

Also, on our way from the vet's office to Target Mommy noticed a police car behind us. The sirens weren't on but she quickly looked to make sure she wasn't speeding. (Of course she wasn't - she had precious cargo on board...ME!) Then she laughed, wondering if I would be able to get her out of a ticket if she happened to get pulled over for some reason.

Mudpie, your Mommy is always careful when you're "on board" ... and of course, whatever the hearing issues may be, some special words ALWAYS get through, don't they?

We love it that you went for just a ride with your mommy. No doctor involved. When some things she's collecting for Halloween. And if they would have turned their siren on boy I bet you would have heard that with your clean ears. It would have hurt.

Gosh, I'm going to have to think about how long it's been since I was at a Target. Used to go all of the time, and heck, there's just about one every mile around here. Glad you found what you were looking for, and Mudpie, you keep improving, ya hear?

Those look so fun! My philosophy is to always drive as if a police car is near, because then when I do see one, I don’t have to worry about it!
