Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

My sweet Taz cat is at the vet getting his teeth cleaned.
Aww, poor Taz. I get Amarna's teeth cleaned every three-four years, because she won't sit still and have me brush her teeth for her. (Heck, she won't let me trim her claws and only reluctantly lets me brush her.)
How are you doing the antibiotics? The first time I had to deal with it, it was liquid form, twice a day, which she hated but grew resigned to. The second time, just to save her the stress of having to freak out over me grabbing her to shove a dropper into her mouth, I went with the extra $30 and had them give her a shot. Much less hassle!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I would think it would be implicit, but I've always heard it said by people who I'm sure actually meant "I couldn't care less."
That's why it's idiomatic! Figures of speech don't have to make logical sense.
ION, I may have to kill someone today.
Oh hey, and there's a fire drill starting.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
And today's sartorial ward against the evils of the fog of insomnia has been achieved with the long leather skirt. And five dangly earrings. Hopefully that's enough to keep me alert but not too much to aggravate my head.
I wonder what my migraine specialist will say about the reduced sleep...well, off to see him now.

I don't know anything about antibiotics, is this something I'll need to do after teeth cleaning? It's our first one.

Well, my vet is a believer in antibiotics before and after any surgery, which is what teeth cleaning is, so the first time, he had me start her with liquid antibiotics two days before the teeth cleaning and continue it for a full week. The second time, the one-time-only shot, given a few days beforehand, took care of that hassle.

I don't think Clio got any kind of antibiotics before her cleaning/extraction.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Scored a cashmere sweater for $20 for DH--a sample. Stuff for the kids, jeans and pants for me. Paid for with my cell phone market research money.
It's gonna be a good day, Tater.

Ann, that's a ferret.
It's easier to give a cat a liquid than a pill, especially if (like Max's pain meds) it's a squirt-in-the-cheek-pouch liquid. Much harder to spit out.
But yeah, the shot is even easier.
