I had to stop buying cotton buds because teufel would rip the bag open to chew on them, so i now use make up wipes (the dry ones) to remove my nailpolish

I've never had to pick Marlee's nose, but I do have to clean out her eye boogies every now and again. You can see them a lot more on one eye then the other, cause one eye has black around it so it blends it, and the other eye has orange around it.

I never had to pick their noses either, but Oliver gets that eye gunk sometimes too. I asked my vet about it and he said "just go like this" (as he wiped it out with his finger)
, so thats what I do.

I am not the only one then! Poor Wiggies is a big little booger nose. And he always has crusties in his eyes. Poor boy hates it when I do it. I just feel strangely maternal about it. I lick my finger, then wipe his nose or eyes, then wash my hands. then Wiggies runs off shaking his head.

I dont need to clean Devin's nose but I do his eyes for him. Poor guy gets little crusties and I just wipe a bit.

Of course I get him when he's falling asleep so he doesnt care. I just pet him and wipe and he's purring with his eyes closed.

I do have to clean Molly's nose! You can't see anything on the boys' noses, so they get away scott free!


I do sometime have to clear eye good from them all too!

no, because the kitties think those are toys!

I have to clean eye boogers occasionally and Portia always seems to get black stuff up her nose and I pick that off whenever she's in a calm mood!

Things we do for our babies!!

I do the same with my girls. Lucy lets me but Daisy and Annabelle hate it
BTW, Marlee is a very pretty cat.
