A neighbor's minivan has sprouted reindeer antlers with bells on them. And a dojo in a side street in San Jose has two lighted reindeer suspended between the storefront and the street tree. They give the appearance of dead sheep.
Bear had to go back to the vet's today without being allowed to pee, so that they could collect enough urine to test. The housemate is taking this week off, so made the appointment for today. We drove over there with him belted in in the back seat and she dragged him inside past all the trees and bushes. Then, as I had predicted, he peed in the waiting room.
