ChaChi's recent illness with her many trips to the veterinarian and twice daily medication has been hard on Lukey's feelings. He cries a lot from his perch at the living room window when the car leaves the garage for a trip to the vet with ChaChi inside but he soon recovers when everyone returns and the status quo once again reigns. The medication sessions have been another story. Cliff would scoop up ChaChi, carry her to the kitchen drainboard, make over her, shoot a syringe full of not-so-bad-tasting medication in her mouth, massage her throat and put her on the floor so she could rush to her current favorite dozing spot. Soon Cliff lost his constant little blond shadow. We found Luke several times in the closet hiding in the corner in the dark. Then there was a change in procedure. After doing all of the above for ChaChi, Cliff now scoops up Lukey from wherever he may be, carries him to the kitchen drainboard, makes over him with an ear and fur check, massages his throat, places him on the floor where ChaChi is beside herself waiting. Together ChaChi and Luke do a hind leg ballet and rush off to play together. Today Cliff didn't have to look for Luke. His adoring little blond shadow was awaiting his 'med' turn at his feet while ChaChi got her meds. Cute...cute...cute.
