    Should I worry about dehydration?

    Hi everyone! I have a soon-to-be one year old tabby named Cooper that I'd love your input on. I adopted him when he was 4 months old and he's never had any health issues. From day 1, I noticed he drank more water than my older cat, but it never seemed excessive. I had him on a mix of raw and...

    @misterwhiskers   haha, thanks! No luck sleeping yet, I cannot stop staring at him. They're both zonked out He came with the name Sardine, which I immediately dismissed. Sardine?? It's kinda growing on me in a weird way, though. I figure I'll give it a few days and see what fits his...

    @Raina21  Oh, I hope he's vocal like that! My very first rescue, as an adult, was a gorgeous Norwegian Forest Cat who talked to me all day, every day. It fosters such a sense of camaraderie - I heard that Siamese cats have a larger vocal range, too. It feels like I hit the jackpot all around...

    18 ounces on the dot! He does have some teeth, also. He ate again, used the litter box and the three of us are camped out watching Friends together. There's a little bit of posturing going on, but mostly lots of sniffing and exploring. He keeps playing and then coming back for snuggles. I'm...

    Thank you for such a quick reply! I left both wet food and some milk in shallow dishes in the room, along with water. I've literally only had him for about 4 hours at this point and stayed with him the whole time he was awake. I know the shelter left him with dry food the last couple of nights...
