Avocado Accident

Sunday night, I was sitting right here in my kitchen, when suddenly, an avocado pit went flying through the air.   Naturally, I caught it in my mouth and when mommy traded me delicious chicken for the pit, I accidentally swallowed it.   I knew something was really wrong by the look on their faces.   Next thing I know, daddy’s holding my jaw open and mommy is gagging me with what I found out later is a turkey baster filled with hydrogen peroxide, next daddy’s jogging me around the kitchen and although I spit up some, apparently not enough because then I found myself in the back seat of the car, then at the veterinarian’s office where they pinched me with a hurtful needle, then I really started puking. Twenty minutes later, daddy holding me up from the back and mommy holding me in front, they, the “decision makers” decided to take me home and let the pit pass the OTHER way, they said, because chewing it would have released toxins and required immediate surgery.  I guess I’m lucky!   huh...
