I've come to the conclusion that my cat is trying to kill me.

So, I woke up this morning to one of those nasty little canker blisters on the tip of my tongue. It hurts like fuck every time it touches the backs of my teeth. I've decided to try and heal it by sticking my tongue against my food whenever its salty--probably not bright and mildly ouchy but it actually seems to have reduced the pain a bit.

Pizza and crackers! Cure for canker sores!

Anyway, I've been plagued by these gogdamn canker sores lately, which sucks. I had a huge one on my chin a few weeks ago, followed shortly by one in the corner of my mouth. Rightly, I wondered wtf was going on here.

I've come to the conclusion its because of my cat. See, she has chronic eye-ooze problem, which I know from my internet learnings is basically a kitty version of a never ending cold. She's been very susceptible to this since she was a kitten, and I had a a 'fun' time learning how to hold a terrified kitten as I attempted to wet a paper towel with warm water to clean her eyes. Daily. Usually several times a day.

Anyway, it comes back frequently, so I'm always cleaning her eyes out. The issue is that my cat loves me a lot and loves to rub her face on my face. The downside? Kitty cold/respiratory problems are caused by the Herpes B virus (I think its that one at least) which is, you guessed it, what causes canker sores.

My cat is giving me canker sores. G'damn it.

Why are you so fuzzy and cuddleable and I can't say no to your purring, happy love? Stupid cat.

You poor thing XD

Actually, both of you deserve some pity. I have no advice for you, i'm not a pet owner.

Resist the purr and the fur D; BE STRONG, COMRADE!

Try Denavir. It's prescription, but as long as you remember to apply it every few hours it will make the bastards go away fast. I keep a tube of it on hand at all times, just in case.
