NFR - Maceo getting snipped today!

Well, it's time! We were initially just taking him in to get declawed in the front, but the vet told us she would work out a payment plan so we could get both done at the same time. She didn't want to put him under more than necessary. Her prices are great, but this is just a bad time of year to come up with extra money. So he's getting declawed and neutered. Poor little guy - he's going to be so mad at us when he gets home!

It's going to be weird going home tonight and not having him run to greet me. I've never had a cat that did that, but he's almost always there (unless he accidentally locked himself in Steve's office) meowing hello. When we first got him as a tiny kitten, he had these huge ears and a big fluffy tail on this tiny little body. Now he's grown into his appendages a little more!





He's named after a Jane's addiction song - here are the lyrics:

My cat's name is Maceo,
He's a little man in a cat's body
He yawns just like I do,
He's convinced I won't eat him
I think he thinks I'm his dad,
Because I saved him from the pound
Well we went down, down to the pound
And that's where we saw Maceo
Cat catcher said to me, "Pick one out,"
Maceo said "Let me out"
He sleeps right where I do
And we wrestle in the morning!
He come to you if you don't bother him
He just likes to do his own thing
My cat's name is Maceo,
He's a little man in a cat's body
