The New Heavyweight

Thompson and Diego-san had their annual visit to the vet yesterday morning. Thompson in particular let me know his displeasure in getting jammed into his carrier.

The big news is that Diego gained a pound and a half the past year and is up to 14 pounds. He thus surpassed Thompson who gained half a pound to just under 14 pounds.

I was a bit worried about having to schedule a teeth cleaning appointment for Thompson since last year the vet said he'd probably need his teeth cleaned this year. But she said other than the tartar building on his back teeth overall his teeth and gums looked OK. I did end up buying some toothpaste. We'll see how that goes. I tried brushing the late great Mr. Max's teeth years back but that didn't last very long. Max loved the taste of the toothpaste so very little ended up on his teeth.
