Does your Cat (or any pet) misbehave since caregiving your loved one?
Have you been required to take care of your loved one's pet after they have passed? Does your pet have cute antics that entertain your loved one?
And finally, has the cat or dog transferred their loyalty to your Mother?
Henrick has always been finicky as hell when it comes to his food and we have tried several of the kidney friendly foods and he refuses all of them. The powder supplement is a bust too. Even just a tiny bit added to his food and he detects it and won't eat. We can't even mix it with water and give it to him in a syringe cause this powder just doesn't mix well with anything. The only thing we are having some success with is the subcutaneous fluids.
I guess we'll just have to monitor him and let nature take it's course. I mean he has to eat and if he won't eat the food that's good for him, ah well.........We have tried and tried. We have several bags and cans of food that will go unused unfortunately.
So I hope your kitty is doing fine and doesn't have a kidney problem or anything serious like that.
She goes back to the vet tomorrow to get a urine sample. The vet agreed it could be a UTI, but they couldn't get any urine today and said she's dehydrated. I made "soup" out of wet cat food, and she's eating some.
glad - can you distract her with a lazer light or other toy when she chews on something she shouldn't? They need to play!!!
Yesterday I saw a canine of some sort loping through the neighbourhood - and through my front garden. It did not look like a lost dog. but rather a predator tracking something. Thankfully Rocky was inside and I kept her for a while. but didn't see it again.
Chew toys for cats?! Never heard of such a thing! The plastic tips on shoelaces are one of her favorite things!
My cat Lilah is acting strange. It's been a couple of weeks now. She's been going potty outside her litter box and does not eat or drink as much. She is still eating; I'm giving her different wet food to tempt her, and she will eat it all if I put it next to her, but she won't go get it in the usual area. I'm scheduling a vet visit tomorrow.
She's 15yo, give or take a year. I hope the vet finds something to indicate what's going on and it's treatable. Otherwise, I suppose it could be her hitting some decline due to age, and I hate to think so.

Turns out I can copy and paste YouTube, but nothing else?😅😅
Tried to copy and paste, but again lately, everything is truncated. Maybe intentional by admin? Sure is irritating!
Tobacco is poisonous for pets.
Do not give it to cure bloating in a cat, especially if pregnancy is suspected.
Found a harness that fits Rocky. I have put it on her 2x now. I am amazed at how compliant she is as I fumble with it, getting her all "clicked" in. She is comfortable enough to walk around the house in it but didn't want to go outside. Good progress so far.

That poor cat, she loves the cases that these cheap readers are in and I have caught her stealing them before. Found one pair under the couch once.
Now this missing pair I was sure that darn cat has absconded with them. Down on the floor looking under all furniture for them. Where do I find them? On the passenger seat in the car. I am sure it was the cat that put them there!
Maybe put a pair of readers in the cat carrier the next time I need to move her.
Golden, my male cat wouldn't go for the covered litter box [which sounds great] as he likes to place his front paws on the edge of the box when he is using it. Plus the other cat may park herself in front of the litter box and not let him out :P
The covered one helps so there is very little spill over of the crystal litter. A mat in front of the box catches most of it.
Carpet sweepers were great. With hardwood floors a broom works fine.
But online has bissell and Yocada, even commercial carpet sweepers just as good for less than 1/2 of the $79.00 hefty price. imo.
Even though, i am a buy brand name snob.
Happy as a clam. My old fashion carpet sweeper came the other day from the Fuller Brush Company. I was amazed at how well it cleaned up cat litter.
I plan to see how well this works on the basement floor as I have litter boxes down there, too [no waiting].
I better end this, before I sound like an info-commercial :P
