The Charity Box of Doom!!!!

There is a company called 1-800-PetMeds that does something my mom thinks is really cool. They send gift boxes full of pet care supplies to rescue organizations!  Mom says that these supplies are worth a lot of money and that other pet supply companies don't seem to have such nice programs. 

So our box of supplies arrived today and Mom was so excited. "Look at this!" she'd shout, pulling a bottle out of the package. Then, "Oh my goodness!" she would exclaim, showing Eva and a some potion or concoction. 

Here's the thing... 1-800-PetMeds sent a whole bunch of wellness and cleanliness stuff! So the foster kitten is going to be stuffed full of vitamins and everyone is going to get washed, up to and including having their teeth cleaned and their ears scrubbed. I showed my teeth to Mom to say, "Listen, lady, if you go anywhere near my anal glands with your cleanliness compulsion, you are in big trouble." 

Of course, Mom laughed at me and rubbed my ears. "In a world of profit above valor," she said, "1-800-PetMeds has decided to prove that altruism can be an effective business practice. I respect them for it."

I guess I respect them for it, too. But I am still a little angry about my impending "spa day."
