I'm going through the exact same thing as you are - a new kitten, an ache in my heart for my dear Quill who I lost in the summer among other griefs and troubles that have happened this year. For Christmas, what I usually do is put a favourite toy up on the tree, one that was important for my...
Two hours in the morning, and two hours at night ... and Frankie, my four month old, is out like a light. He's found a stuffed toy he likes to rabbit kick - a big old fluffy skunk ... he goes nuts for it. As a puzzle feeder I'm using a few yards of old fabric, and I sprinkle his dry food into it...

Kisses, Love You Too
And he's a very talkative, expressive cat and we understand each other quite well. It's...
I'm happy to say that he is doing INCREDIBLY well, a month later. He's been on subcutaneous fluids once every week, is drinking and eating without any vomiting and packing on the ounces weekly, dehydration is under control, and best of all he talking and playing again. He's one happy boy full of...
