July 9, 1996

Today I took Wilbur to the vet. She put him on Flagyl and a high fiber diet and told me to call back in 5 days. To my surprise he ate the high fiber food with relish. I was expecting his usual finicky behavior. He seems fine in every way except the diarrhea. He's even gained a pound since January. He hated having his temperature taken. He bit me. Heck, I'd probably bite somebody too if I had a thermometer stuck up my butt.
