Clench.... now unclench again. *exercise time!*

Unclenching will allow them to shove the thermometer deeper. Clench! Clench!!!

Why does everyone act like growing up is a great solution? You have to be stupid and silly about some things, or the stress of life would just seem unbearable.

I mean, you don't 'have' to be silly or "stupid" with certain things life throws at you. It's just nice to have the option to be carefree, live in the moment, and chill the fook out. This goes for OP's situation as well. I think its more of the fact that the Vet had to ask them to leave (In terms of why they said "FML"). They could have been nervous as well; as someone had mentioned. I personally don't see anything wrong here or anything that would warrant me to step-in and say something to diverge OP from the path they are on, or put them down for the moment they had. Hope everything worked out for the kitty cat OP.

I can't help but giggle when my cat gets her temperature taken. She makes the funniest pissed off noise that is quite unlike any sound I've heard her make before & makes a ridiculous facial expression as she howls. I'm sure most cat owners that realize it's a routine check up procedure find it pretty hilarious too :) Even a mature person would probably at least crack a grin, especially if they've never experienced their cat having it done before.

Grow up, #1 (oh the irony) :-P

does this mean when op has a child and has to take them to the doctor he/she will laugh at that too. or they dont do it that way anymore

^never a truer comment. Laugh away OP. Cat will have its revenge soon enough.

I dont know about you, but my cat does not come to the doctors with me.

Speak for yourself. I'm far from a failure.

Unlike your comment.

Although it's a sort of a stupid thing to laugh at, I don't really think it equates to the failure of our species. And don't feel bad OP, everyone laughs at dumb shit sometimes, you just can't help it!

Not really. It's sad. My cat cries the whole time.

Your cat is a pussy.

Triple if said cat is female

You wouldn't be happy having a thermometer shoved up your ass either!

Well considering the amount of YDI and "grow up" comments, I think you should re evaluate your statement. That being said, I agree with what you seemed to imply, that we all should keep that part of our brain :)

all those ydi's are just people that keep that part of themselves suppressed.

I voted YDI, even though I still have that childish part of my brain, I voted YDI because it's not funny.

Yeah OP! Have a heart! Poor kitty wasn't feline to good.
