    Cats hate me right now: cleaned ears

    Another ear drop day. Went smoothly again, thankfully. Zoie's and Jaden's ears were excellently clean. No sign of wax at all. Petal had modest wax and Miggy's ears were still gross and yucky. My guess is that the medicine is actually working but is more effective against a mild-moderate...

    Cats hate me right now: cleaned ears

    That's a great idea! I'll finish out this treatment and ask about that for sure!

    Cats hate me right now: cleaned ears

    Yes, Trout's Mom! I'm only putting everyone (including myself) through this torture because of ear mites! I hate them, for sure! To clarify, Miggy and Petal have them for sure, Zoie may have them and Jaden doesn't have them. Everyone is getting a cleaning and drops. Today (Fri) was the...

    Cats hate me right now: cleaned ears

    Saturday was supposed to be ear drop day yet again, but I held off until Sunday and combined it w/ soft claw day. I also brush their teeth and Miggy has acne, so he gets a chin wipe. So Sunday, all the cats were holding a grudge. Petal and Jaden had no change from last time, Zoie's ears looked...

    Cats hate me right now: cleaned ears

    OMG! You have my sympathies! Today was another Ear Drop Day and it was successful and the shortest so far. Miggy's ears were again icky and gross, but he barely put up a protest when I grabbed him and took him to the bathroom. I was able to straddle Zoie and it worked much better for us and...

    Cats hate me right now: cleaned ears

    Well today was Ear Drop Day #3 and it was the smoothest so far. I sat on/straddled Jaden so her ears were actually the easiest to do. If only I could have done the same w/ Zoie as she is very squirmy-wormy. The three girls are doing great: Jaden still has no signs or symptoms, and Zoie and Petal...

    Cats hate me right now: cleaned ears

    I just cleaned the ears of all of my 4 cats, so they really hate me right now. Miggy and Petal have had ear mites for a while now, but Jaden never got them. Now that we have Zoie, I have decided to be diligent about treating all their ears w/ mite medicine. Jaden saw me coming w/ the bottle and...

    Female exam question

    Your cervix changes position during the month depending on your fertility. It will drop down lower and get spongy when you are going to have your period. Since you mentioned switching b.c, you may have ovulated and so your cycle got messed up a tad. It's no big deal. But for a doctor, who's used...

    Question about pierced ears

    Me Too! I had mine pierced at age 12/13 and stopped wearing earrings two years later. It has been 16 years and the holes are still there. They still get filled with pus, too. I finally squeezed the crap out of one and burst it a few years ago, now it's half closed. I hate having holes in my...

    Followup to my Budgeting thread..

    Our budget for entertainment is and has been $0 for 3 years. We have a cash envelope that is outside our budget that we use for eating out, trips to the dollar store, and the occasional movie. We filled it up with #1, wedding cash; #2 garage sale, #3 garage sale, #4 monthly hair cuts for my...

    Stubborn Feline Acne

    If this has been resolved already, I'm sorry but I wanted to share. Miggy had acne probs ever since I brought him home Feb 07. I thought it had gone away and stopped wiping his chin once/week w/ hot washcloth (water only). Then a month later, his chin was swollen to twice normal! I had to wipe...

    I rescued a bunny, advice?

    I know some of you out there also have rabbits, so I'd appreciate some advice. I rescued an abandoned pet rabbit last Saturday and convinced my husband we needed to keep it (I've secretly wanted a rabbit for years). I've already had her checked out by the vet and she was declared to be in...

    Come in and drool over this cutie!

    We just adopted this little cutie-pie on Saturday the 4th. She was at PetSmart. The instant we saw her we knew she was already ours, it was just a matter of doing the paperwork. She's a nice Egyptian Mau look-alike, her coloring is blue silver tabby. We named her Zoie because she's fun and...

    Curious about my cat's coloring (pics)

    Thank you for your kind responses. After doing a little google research, we've decided the name "blue silver patch tabby w/ white" describes her best, but to simplify things, we'll just refer to her coloring as silver-cream tabby if someone were to ask casually On a side note, check out this...

    Curious about my cat's coloring (pics)

    Blue Silver Patched Tabby sounds feasible, considering "blue" is typically a light gray/silver when regarding cat colors (in case you didn't know, Aby'). -Scott

    I want green walls. Does it seem like a good idea?

    I agree with a previous poster about saving your $$ and getting a less expensive paint. I always buy Glidden at Home Depot. Their flat paint is only $17 (versus Sherwin Williams $34) and it has low odor and great coverage. We painted our hallway Glidden Zen Mist, which I highly recommend. This...

    Curious about my cat's coloring (pics)

    I'd expect those responses, she is in fact one of the most beautiful cats I have seen. She's looks very similar to Egyptian Mau, which I've wanted for a while now. She's my dream cat! -Scott

    Curious about my cat's coloring (pics)

    We just picked up this little beauty on Saturday. She's mostly a silver tabby (mackerel) but has bits of cream integrated into her stripes and one small blotch of red on her back. She has defined cream stripes on both her thighs, and one foot bottom is a solid patch of cream with a couple blue...

    Can I get some input on this.

    An honest critique: A. the colors are so vivid and bright, it makes the drawing feel cartoony; B. But the horse is mostly drawn realistically, creating a contrast between the subject and the background; C. But the contrast isn't enough to look intentional nor subtle enough to blend the two into...
