Val; I am so glad you have your darling kitty girl to share the love of your home. I am sure she will display "normal" cat activity real soon. She is still getting used to the fact that she is LUCKY enough to have a home instead of A CAGE!
You can try dropping either a little bit of tuna fish oil (very small amount) or a 1/4 teaspoon cod liver oil in her water bowl. The smell should entice her to drink. Or put a little bit of warm water with her dry food. She is just adjusting. You are good to take her in like this.
Yes, thank you. I did add a bit of water to her wet food. And right now, as we speak, she is drinking!! WAHOOOO!!!!!
I know she will adjust. My only problem now is the pooping out of the litter box, which I just complained about under the "Behavior" postings.....Sigh..
I am sure she will get adjusted to the new surroundings and her new mommy real soon!!
The pictures were great!!! I finally got the pictures of some of my cats developed, and put on a disk, so I am going to have to try and post them....but for some reason everything I post comes out huge....I may have to ask you or one of the other members to post them for me.
she is just beautiful! I am sure she will help you and your husband feeling better. It will give you 2 something to do (watch her, pet her etc) and to speak (to speak of other things then the attack).
think you will see that she will help you 2 heal... There is nothing more reassuring then a cat purring in your lap...
