Yeah, We are pretty good w/ money, when we got cosmo we set aside 300.00 for things like this, (We did the same w/ piper)... it just stinks sometimes because you hear of some of these Vets ripping people off, I'm so happy we have one of the good ones. Makes me really proud to be a client of his...
Just wanted to reply for everyone and give a quick update. Cosmo went to the vet yesterday afternoon, apparently he sprained his back hindquarter, vet said its most likely him testing how high he can jump. (only charged us 18.00 for an anti-inflamatory shot and a light sedative, didnt charge for...
Thanks hon. Man i hate to see him in pain! Hes still eating and going to his litterbox and water station, so im okay with waiting until the morning. Ugh, poor thing, just breaks my heart to hear that pitiful "im in pain" meow, like "Mommy DO something! It hurts!" ya know... UGH! (heart breaking)
Wanted to also mention he got his shots last week (Exactly 6 days ago) Dont know if that has anything to do with it. He was a bit sore after the shot, but for the 4-5 days in between he has been just fine....
Cosmo started meowing CONSTANTLY yesterday out of nowhere for about 20min, and i couldnt figure out what was wrong, He had been right on the sofa for about an hour or so, no falls or tumbles, the dog was no where in sight. I thought maybe she'd been a bit too rough with him or something, but...
Thanks hon. Today was actually the first day they ate all of their food. Piper is easier to scold than the cat (virtually impossible) But i've been snapping my fingers or clapping my hands and saying "NO" for the past year when Piper does something wrong, and Cosmo has picked up on that, so...
Oh wow, that i didnt know... I'll have to look at the ingredients... She (dog) eats Mighty Dog canned & Beneful (1/2 can mixed with 1/3c dry food) and He (cat) eats 1/2 pouch (1.5oz) of Iams Select Bites mixed with 1oz (1 Tbsp approx) of Kit & Kaboodle Kitten Formula (He refuses to eat anything...
They are definately entertaining! LOL. Its so wierd to think Cosmo has only been a part of our lives for less than a week lol. They have grown so attached to each other its unnerving sometimes LOL. Piper is spoiled rotten though, i swear when we have kids.... whew... lol
I'm not too terribly worried at this point, because i try to supervise their feedings during the day, but ive noticed that our dog will eat about 7/8 of her food, and the kitten will do the same (they are fed on opposite sides of the room) and then they will both, at the same time, go over to...
Piper (1yro pomeranian: 8.3lbs)
Cosmo (7 1/2wk kitten: 1.7lbs)

Came home today to find Piper asleep in Cosmo's litterbox....
Cosmo decided that he is the size of a bobcat and tried to leap from the staircase landing today... but landed on all fours! LOL
Piper...

lol. Mr Toby (The "Mister" was confirmed today) had his first vet appt this afternoon. 7 weeks 1 day old, negative for FIV and Leukemia (yea!) and got a wormer and distemper is a whopping 1lb 10oz. lol. Vet confirmed that he is going to be a larger cat, he estimated probably close to 13-14lbs at...
ROFLMAO! Yes LOL. Piper is our spoiled rotten baby (hence the baby blanket I made just for her LOL) Shes a purebred pom pup, just shy of 1 1/2 years old. Her and toby are too cute. I've spent all day snapping random pictures lol. When i left them downstairs they were both sleeping, and piper was...
Thanks guys.
We inhreited him (her) from two friends of ours, who after keeping him for 2 days realized they were severely allergic, They basically got him out of the paper i believe. I was kind of upset that they got him as early as they did (6 weeks, 1 day old) and feared that he would have...
Oh guys I know!! Sorry, probably should have mentioned that. I know for a fact that hes a mix, just dont know of what LOL. Its just easier to narrow it down to a possible 1-2 breeds so when im filling out paperwork etc (vet, insurance, base registration etc..) that I can give them an answer...
Okay guys, after looking through some of the breed standards, I'm thinking that our new kitty Toby (or Rory, we find out in a week or so) is a Maine Coon breed... but i'm fairly new to the cat scene, and really am just basing this off of other peoples photos of their kittens...
So, i figured...
Does anyone out here have pet insurance? We've looked into it for both the dog and cat, and were looking for a reputable company... just curious. Thanks!!
