I use Nutiva...I have a 12 mos old hyperactive kittie cat. I'll try it...My cholesterol really shot up and not sure what caused it other than heredity and using the oil and too many eggs.

Samson had a herpes infection a few months ago. Was given antibiotics...went away. Now has a fungus infection on his nose. Putting a drop of (forgot) on his nose two times daily. Is this normal? 9 mos old Siamese...

Update... Moved the African Violets to another room.. Samson still goes into the plants but doesn't stay long...especially when my husband isn't around. When it's just me and Samson I don't run around getting him off... He knows when he shouldn't be on something and all I have to do is walk up...

If I didn't take Samson off the table, he would damage the plant. And, he is starting to eat my husband's African Violets.... I'm going to try and talk to my husband about moving the plants to another room. Don't know how that would go but it would be a lot stressful. Thanks for your help. I'll...

llinda.... thanks for your response... I didn't get the last sentence. When I first brought Samson home (12 weeks).. he would also go back to sleep if I did that. Well, at 5 months, Samson is a different kitten. What kind of cat is your Samson? Mine is a Siamese and that's part of the problem...

Stephen...I hear you loud and clear. If I lived alone...that's what I would do. I really should have thought about all these things but honestly, I did not know. That said...the plants are spaced..My husband is 93 y/0 (yes, he robbed the cradle) and his plants are everything to him. We live in...

Stephen, he climbs into them... they are my husbands plants, but Samson doesn't know that..and, wouldn't care..lol. I'm not going to get another plant. Stephen, this cat knows exactly what he wants. Last night I played with him for an hour....gave him the baby food before bed. I turned off the...

Stephen... any suggestions for curbing Samson from going into the plants? I already have the carpet nails... Doesn't deter him. :argh:

Wow...I'm totally excited! I've been training Samson to sit... he's starting to do it. My goal is to "call him" as he's getting into a plant or kitchen counter... I'm going to look into the automatic feeder..... Would be lovely not to have to tiptoe into the kitchen at 5am to open the can of wet...

I keep dry food in a bowl along with a bowl of water so that Samson can graze..... I give him wet food at 5:00 IN THE MORNING. I can't put him out in the living room/kitchen, alone. We have plants... Too long a story. Let's just say...if my 93 y/0 husband came out in the morning to see havoc in...

Practice makes perfect. I'm sitting at my dining room table at 5:15am on Saturday having my first cup of coffee.... Why?

When I first Samson home...he would come under the blanket and bite any part of my body that wasn't covered. Obviously... Samson slept in my bed. He was 3 mos old at that time. I didn't realize that he was biting me as a way to tell me he loved me... but it hurt. I think (for me) I was skiddish...

Okay... So, when Samson gets in front of my face at 5am and I can't put him on the other side of the door... what should I do? I'm concerned that his meowing, loudly, can be heard by neighbors...and, my husband. So far, so good. As I mentioned, I get under the covers..but I'd just a soon get...

Pinkdagger... i have changed Samson's name to Frankenstein. Why? He gets me up at 5am...no matter what. But, it depends whether or not I'm in the mood to listen to him whine and/or concerned that he'll waken my husband in the next room. I cannot put him outside the door...not feasable. What I...

Thank you for your response. I just finished putting two-sided tape on the counters. Last night I made being in the living room, play-time. It worked very well. In fact...Samson was asleep by 10pm until 5am. Thanks a lot for your suggestion! Oh, and yes, I have a tall tree...and Samson gets to...

Anne, I so appreciate your reply. And, I will continue...spread the word but will not judge others as long as the cat is well cared for. Bubbie

FHi09... My intention for my kitten is not to be cruel! People have to make decisions based on living situtations. While I appreciate suggestions..and the suggestion about not tapping on the nose..is, well taken. But the declawing decision was a decision I made so that I could HAVE AND LOVE MY...
