Hi all.
My husband's and my two year old male cat has had urinary blockages twice. Now he gets a substantial amount of canned food since we figured out he hates drinking water (no matter if it's fresh or not). We also add a teaspoon or so of water to his food once a day.
It hasn't returned but...
Okay. So we're headed into Merfy and Isosceles: Living together, Month three.
I'm still not sure if they're getting along.
Merfy growls and hisses at Isosceles whenever she gets a chance. I've never heard such guttural, nasty sounding noises come out of her before. Right now she's on a...
I said a long time ago I'd post before and after pictures of Isosceles's progress...from the time we found him in the yard, until now as a young fiesty cat. We think he was born some time around early April.
(I hope I'm doing this right!)
This is on July 4th. Isosceles has an upper...
The vet told us Isosceles would be sleepy after his surgery (done earlier today under general anesthesia), so it wouldn't be a problem to keep him calm so that he won't rip his stitches.
Isosceles is not sleepy. He wants to PLAAAAY! He brought various toys to me to fetch and I took them away...
I'm curious here because I saw this mentioned in other posts and so I looked it up myself.

Would your cats willingly eat that, no problem? I'm only asking because Merf...well, won't eat anything that resembles people food.
I mean, I have...
So, the slow, month long intro between Isosceles and Merfy seems to have hit a stalemate. I have realized that she is willing to tolerate him, even likes to watch him play, but is afraid if he approaches her, which he does often.
(she's 13, spayed, was abandoned at 3 weeks old. He's about 4 or...
Whenever I get home
Senior Kitty knows the sound
of my car coming down the road.
I know this because she's always at the door.
and people say that she runs there
long before I enter the driveway.
My parents used to say
She'd learned to yowl my name
It sounded like "Me-yell! Me-yell!"
With a...

I'm watching something kind of interesting here. My senior cat, Merfy, who has been slowly beginning to tolerate my rescued new kitten, Isosceles (who, after over two weeks, finally has a clean enough bill of health to interact).
The senior cat has just walked over, very slowly, to about 6 feet...
I just got back from my little Isosceles's veterinary recheck/vaccination appointment. He's a 14 week old (vet's estimate) former stray. The vet was very pleased with his appearance. He said he looked like a new kitty. He had a roundworm problem, which has been taken care of...and the vet found...
Hi. I'm new here.
The reason I joined was because I recently went from having just one cat...for 13 years, to accidentally adopting a second. Merfy (my father named her for Murphy's law, and misspelled her name to start off her string of bad luck...although she wasn't so lucky before we met...
