[A song plays, at first it is the only sound. It's irritating. After the first chorus, it lowers so that House can talk over it easily.]

Catscratch Fever is easier to say than Cytauxzoonisis Felis--try saying that three times fast. It's actually caused by ticks not cats. The symptoms aligned with our current cast of disease thanks to our itchy friends. Back tracking showed the patient became Whiskers the Wonder Kitty. That changes everything. What took so long is that our buddy Billy isn't a cat anymore, I'm not, nor will I ever be, a vet. The results come out in the wash. Why? Because I'm just that good.

The patient be treated with Dr. Frontline Plus after the transfusion. I suggest to his roommates that when he's done you get him vaxinated.Maybe think about getting him fixed. You can never be too careful.

One more point for me.

[ooc; Heeey sorry for slow tags and a few dropped ones. My birthday was Wednesday, the party is still kinda rollin'. Thanks for your understanding.]

I don't know whether I should kiss you or hit you.

And no, he doesn't need to be fixed.

I don't think you're my type.

It is a population control issue.

Then I'll go with the hitting.

Billy's gay. He'll be okay, right? No dying or anything?

You call that gratitude?

Anything he does outside of the hospital until he comes back in is his own fault. I'd stay out of the Red States.

I would offer to bake you a cake, but I can't cook. All I know how to do is throw a mean punch.

We live in New York. He'll be okay as long as he stays away from cats, subway rats, and Conservatives.

Keep your punches.

Conservatives are everywhere. There's no shot for that. Best of luck anyway.

Thank you. Seriously. All jokes aside, from the bottom of my heart.

It's what I do. And if I didn't, I couldn't call myself a doctor.

I'm on it.

On the sticky note tally. Not the whiteboard.

Right. I'll let Chase know, too.

He knows. At least he should by now.

So we're not going to have to take out his liver, then?

Not today at least. There will be others.

I'd like to watch a transplant.

There should be tapes around here. Should being an operative word. I'll give you a heads up with the opportunity arises.

...It's a feline disease?

Cat's out of the bag.

As if there weren't enough options that are transmissible to human beings.

Fictional diseases didn't get you riled enough?

Honestly, the things I miss.

Countless cool things happen because you're not there.

Countless, really?

I could almost get the impression they're waiting for me to leave.

... ~~Must you-~~

That was a surprise.

Billy would agree.

At least he's alright now.

Where are we marking the points for keeping the patient alive long enough for someone to finally take a full history? Just curious.

Successful treatment is what whe're marking. A completely history in this place is like a virgin over fifty, could be but highly unlikely.

I'd say congratulations, but your head's big enough as it is.

Fine. Don't recognize ingenuity. I bet you where cheering the disease on.

Somebody's feeling a little snippy. In need of a little validation?
