Cissy is the sweetest cat I've ever been owned by. I do know that she will need to be monitored as long as she is on the drug. What I don't understand is that the animal control guy who came to the hospital after she attacked me, said this was common! I asked him if he meant in seemingly calm...

I cannot find the old thread concerning the attack, but I wanted to post an update. Cissy is much more calm now, but of course I am still very careful with her. I pay intense attention to a slightest flick of an ear whenever I am petting or rubbing her. She can become over-stimulated in a...
Years ago, my soulmate (Wuss, now at Rainbow Bridge) had head tremors. She sort of acted like she was in a daze whenever it would happen. The vet did a ton of test, and said she had a potassium deficiency. She took medication until I had to send her to the Bridge at 19. She never had those...
It wasn't the dream twitching; it was a tremor. I have only seen her feet do that twice. It is very pronounced, but both times, she stopped when I touched her....but then began again. Both times she was on her back. She curls her paws up, too. I don't think that is unusual, though.
No, she has not had a CBC, but she is sure due for one! I have read where diabetes does affect their behavior. I never knew this until a few days ago. Another thing I have noticed is that since she began the med, she isn't eating nearly as much. I used to refill her bowl daily, but I haven't...
I have a question. About a month ago, Cissy was sleeping on her back, and her feet started vibrating. If I touched her, she immediately stopped, but then her feet would start vibrating again. This was BEFORE she started on the medication, or I would suspect that to be the cause. I have not...
I tell others all the time that cats are just like toddlers, but I seem to forget that when thinking about my own cats. Lol...they are brats, for sure. I try to ignore Cissy whenever she starts gnawing on one of my CD cases, or plastic bags (anything plastic....and she likes wood, too) and it...
I don't mind her jumping on most anything, but my night stand is small and she knows EVERYTHING off...lamp, alarm clock,etc. I used to keep other things there, but I had to add a squirt bottle so there's not much room left. It's guaranteed that whenever she jumps up there, something is going...
Lol I tried to make a video of one of her rampages this afternoon, but all I got was a blue. She is so fast! She is having less of them and the ones she has are shorter. Another thing I have noticed is, I no longer hear her meow when I leave the room. For a long time, I thought a cat was...
I cannot find the post I want to reply to, but to whomever suggested I make a video and send it to a cat behaviorist....I might do that! Excellent idea. Someone else suggested I send one to the Cat From Hell show. I have never seen it because it comes on cable, but I have heard all about it. I...
