Check up and what ifs

So it officially seems like it has been forever since i wrote in this blog. And with good reason to. When there is nothing new to report, there is no need to do any reporting!

Recently i took both Gizmo and Gadget back to the vet to get their shots updated. Gadget was in need for his one year boosters and Gizmo for his 2 year. It seems like time passes so quickly. While we were there both of the cats had to be weighed. Gadget is 12.1 pounds and Gizmo is 11.9 pounds. The vet said that Gadget was perfect weight, he didn't look to skinny or too big. He is just a bigger built cat. They said that Gizmo should try to get down as close to 11 as possible. So i guess we are in for more dieting, but i think this time I'm just going to take it slowly and see what happens. I hate how miserable Gizmo is when he has to cut way back on his food.

But other then that, health wise, there is no news to report. You all remember Gizmo breaking himself last fall, well since then he has gone back to normal. You cant even tell that he ever hurt himself. I'm not sure how long that will last though. He keeps testing himself and jumping onto the highest point possible. No matter what i do to prevent him from jumping he finds a way around in. When i took him back home with me for vacation this summer, he decided jumping on top of the entertainment center seemed like fun. And that thing is almost 7 ft tall. I don't know how he gets up there. Now just last night, back at my apartment, he decided jumping from the toilet seat, onto the metal rim of the shower door would be a good idea. ITS NOT. And I'm not sure how to prevent him from doing that. I cant move the toilet or take off the shower door. But it scares me because then he walks along the shower door rim then hops onto a cabinet that i have hanging on the wall. I don't think the cabinet is strong enough to hold him for more then a few minutes. So I'm scared that he will jump on the rim while I'm gone and then walk across or lay on the top of the cabinet. Either way it is a long jump or fall down to the floor. I just don't want him getting hurt. and i really don't want him teaching this stuff to gadget. This fall gadget will be the same age gizmo was when he hurt himself. I just don't want to be going through this all over again.
