I hadn't realized that Teekie never did the sprawl and stretch and roll on the ground thing that all the other cats do, until I caught her doing it!  It must be so nice for her, being able to have things touch her sides without causing her pain now. She's looking rather scandalized that I...

It never occurred to me that she never sprawled across the floor like other cats until I saw her do it yesterday!  Sprawl and stretch and roll and take over the entire floor.  She even let me get a picture of her.  I'm going to add it to her gallery.

Teekie has become obnoxiously playful, bouncing all the other pets, and rubbing on dog faces. She even convinced Jack to rassel with her for a little bit today. Then she comes over and demands snuggles and lets me pet her all over instead of leaving any time a hand touched more than her head...

@FhiCat Home and office tanks, not like big zoo-type aquariums.  The biggest tank I work with is 300 gallons with a 2 foot pacu and 1 foot tinfoil barb and pleco.  My smallest is an 8 gal bowl with 2 angelfish.  Most of mine are 55, 90 and 150 gal freshwater tanks, but I also do some salt water...

So it's been 3 weeks since we got rid of all the cat food with gluten in it, and just over a week since I got rid of the egg layer crumble 'cat litter' and went back to sand.  Teekie is a whole new cat!  She is playful and enjoys being petted.

@haleyds Thanks!  I did get a couple of pictures of Teekie posted.  I don't currently have a working camera and my cell takes potato quality pictures, but once in a while I get something worth sharing.

Teekie is my kitten who was recently diagnosed with Celiac Disease. With her insides hurting so badly for all her life, she wasn't particularly sociable all the time I've had her. Suddenly, just the last couple of days, she's started coming over for pets and loves and cuddles.  She even purrs! ...

Hi, I'm Hawke.  I've lurked around for quite some time, but recently joined when I needed some advice.  I posted in another forum and totally forgot to post here! I've had cats since before I can remember. As a family, I don't think we've ever had fewer than 3, and one time we had 13!  The...
