I finally finished planting the vegetable garden today. I planted my sugar pumpkins, sweet corn, pole beans as well as calendula, and several other flowers to pull in pollinators and the good bugs. I have onions, garlic, various hot peppers, peas, sweet peppers, tri color beans, purple hull...
This past week was AWFUL! Not only did we lose Tabitha, but our Sheltie died on Friday night too. Nick was 11 and feeble. To lose both within days just ripped our hearts out.
We don’t really celebrate much of anything any longer. For example May 5 is our anniversary (47 years). Our exciting day was go to church and come home to do what we do every day- nothing. I do remember my kids and hubbys birthdays. None of the kids are married so no anniversaries to recall.
Since no one answered, I will tell you my experiences even though I did not show the breeds you asked about. As long as the cat has no disqualifying traits it should be okay to show. Now the breed standards describe what would be considered the perfect cat. In my breed (Persian) a lot is open to...
We lost Tabitha today. She is out of the second litter born here at Posiepurrs, 15 years ago. The vet told me last year that she had a tumor on her liver. She adored my husband coming each morning to sit on his lap and at night to put him to bed. She will be greatly missed.
It hasn’t been mentioned. If I had the resources I would take him to the hospital that did his surgery when he blocked last year, but sadly my finances are limited. I am still paying off the operation from last year. He has several other serious issues along with the liver failing.
Not good news at the vets today. He has developed jaundice. Still won’t eat. I am syringe feeding him. The vet wanted to give the fluids one more day in hopes of him rebounding, but wasn’t optimistic. So tomorrow I take him in again, if no improvement I guess we will let him go. I don’t want to...
Jack is my icon photo. He is at the vets in liver failure, along with a couple of other problems. Vet isn’t very optimistic. He is trying fluids and B vitamins.
I am a former Persian breeder. Please consider the following:
1. Are they exemplary examples of the breed? If a breeding does not improve the breed I ( my opinion only) would not do it.
2 Do you have breeding rights on both? If not the kittens can’t be registered and pedigree would be...
Keep in mind if you have a purebred, the breeder sometimes take the cat back. Personally, I have an agreement with a dear friend who is as nuts over her pets as I as mine. If I pass away, she will find homes for my babies. I trust her completely because we are of the same mind about the cats.
I got some lettuce, broccoli, and cauliflower started inside today. I also started some flowers- more coneflowers and some asters. I also transplanted the dahlia seedlings into a bigger tray. Then I spent the afternoon clearing up the rest of the leaves off the lawn. I didn’t get it done in the...
Feline chronic lymphocytic plasmacytic gingivostomatitis
This link has a book available BUT if you scroll down there is a lot of good information without buying it. I used some of the dietary info when my cat, Boo was diagnosed. We never did full mouth extraction. In another article I read...
I guess this sounds mean- that vet sounds a little screwy. I know some cats can be cured of fip. I have a friend who’s’ Burmese was cured, but it took quite a bit of time. My question would be what research does she base her claims on?
