Time for something fresh - new sona/mascot design debut! The old one is still dear and sentimental to me, but it's turning 8 years old this year and a lot has happened since that design was made... so take this as a fresh coat of paint on that old thing after all that time!

It was the fourth vaccination this visit; you couldn't make out what this one was for, but your guardian angel of a roommate assured you that it'd keep you safe and healthy when you go to play outside.

...play...outside...

Gosh!!! You shake your head once the needle is removed, with no reaction from the vet tech holding you. Just doing her job catching an animal up on its shots, you think, doing your best to stuff down that strange, electric feeling as she wordlessly tends to the injection site.

A lot has changed since that morning when your roomate found you trembling and whimpering in your bed. It turns out those pet collars you were always curious about aren't all that uncomfortable, and the jingling of your newfound tags reassures you, even if you didn't plan on getting lost anytime soon.

Gosh, the sweet nothings it whispered as it cradled you... It had promised you a way to figure all of this out, set up some way to communicate, even offered to take your collar off at home to help you feel more human, but honestly...

"Right then." The gloomy tech disrupts your reminiscence. Not paid enough, you suspect. "That's all her core vaccines, plus lyme and influenza. Again, I'm sorry that the vet isn't in today to run a full checkup, but we can get you scheduled for that at the front desk."

"Thank you soooo much!!! Makes me feel way better knowing my sweet little thing is in good health!" Your roommate's voice makes your skin prickle with warmth and you stifle an involuntary vocalization. A futile attempt, it turns out, as a content trill escapes your snout when she snaps the leash to your collar and turns towards the door.
