Pretty self explanatory. Post animals, post pets, post stuff about animals and pets!

What a handsome boy! I agree with the other posters who believe he's past 5-6 months. When you book the appointment with the vet it's probably worth mentioning that there's some uncertainty about Mo's age - they can have their setup ready to do whichever set of age-appropriate vaccinations and other stuff ends up being called for based on the examination. The handful of times I've brought a new cat to the vet, they've held off on fixing until after the initial examinations and shots were taken care of anyway.
Thank you! I'm probably overthinking it as usual. The vets here are hard to get into, so I wanted to make sure all my ducks were in a row.
From where I'm sitting that just means you're invested in positive outcomes for Mo, which is wonderful. They'll probably have you schedule any follow-up appointments at the end of his first, which (hopefully) will alleviate some of the stress you're feeling about getting back in.
Just as an update, everything went swimmingly. He came back from the vet neutered, vaxed, and a clean bill of health. Awesome pal to have at work. Doesn't mind noises (air tools, loud engines), or water (loves wading around in puddles; that's odd but cute), and has never met a stranger; customers love him.
That's awesome! I'm so glad he's got such an awesome human rooting for him. Of course, now you're going to have to occasionally post pictures of him being adorable at work.
