Benny's Manly Monday

 

Benny: #1 said I could have a go at doing the Manly Monday post this week as I, after all, had to go to the vet last week for my boosters. Dr. C is really very nice, but it was still a stressful occasion, starting with getting my temperature taken:


I was a really good boy and the vet tech, Ms. K, gave me lots of scritches, so I was purring up a storm.


I weigh exactly the same as I did last year, 5.15 kilos (just over 11lb) and Dr. C said I looked good. #1 asked her about my eyes which are so often tearing, and she said it was sadly a remnant of my youth. #1 is supposed to put ointment in both my eyes for a week, but she is yet to start on this.

I was pretty tired when I got home and so I had a nice long nap:


After which I found a nice box to sit in:


My bro, Momo, likes to hang out at the window in the study upstairs:


And he likes to hang out with our woofie bro, Ollie:


Here is an Ollie close-up for you:


As for young Ryū, aside from being told off by #1 umpteen times a day for bothering Queen Tama, he has the cheek to give us lectures about how his ancestors were worshipped as gods in ancient Egypt... The nerve!


We had a pretty stormy weekend with high ends and lots of rain, so here's hoping for more clement weather in the coming days.
