She has become amazingly patient. As a younger cat, she had no time for shenanigans!
Lila is more apt to smack him, and has a few times. But a day or two ago, she slapped him gently with no claws, then curiously watched him scamper away to find a toy. I think she's getting there. 🥰
I was told by some friends that McDonalds, inside, is all touch screen and you basically deal with a computer to pay. I honestly don't think I could figure out how to order food at a place like that.
We have a BK that is reasonably priced with really nice, friendly workers. I'll visit that...
Don't worry Willow, this is a Cat Society and we all work together to protect cats and their possessions from anyone wanting to steal that teddy for themselves. :)
Busy day for Balki today. He went to work with me today briefly. He got to experience a maintenance work man (also a dog lover and a close friend of ours) hauling in tool boxes, scaffolding, ladders, etc. He got to hear the sound of drywall being cut through and barely reacted to the noise...
Update on the developing story: fearless cat conquers mean nail clippers!! 😂
I think the plan to have the vet do it is a good one. No sense in stressing you both out. 😺
The more I read about Geoffrey, the more I feel emotionally attached to him. I'm glad he's coming around, even slowly, and hope that he's back to himself in no time. 🙏 ❤️
I hope you're having a better day today. I think this random realization thing is normal. Sometimes I'll be half asleep, and my mind will drift back to Goofy or Tag and it will hit me all over again and wake me up. It's terrible but it does lessen with time. :hugs:
If it was gone, its probably was unharmed, but stunned. I had something similar happen with a sparrow that I thought was injured in my yard. I checked on it often, and after an hour or so I checked on it again and it flew away, seemingly unharmed.
@Kwik I never realized squirrels have little hands vs. "paws". Cool photo!
@NY cat man I feel the same about rabbits, and we have done things to keep them away. I don't despise them, but I want them FAR from the yard because I don't want to see them killed by a dog.
When my Tag was diagnosed with cancer, I took him to a vet and plunked him on the table and told the vet "just fix him." She did a lot for him. I worked remotely with another vet and pretty much told her the same thing..."I don't care what we do so long as it doesn't hurt him. Just....fix...
I think you're doing great with the carrier. Feeding him in it is a great idea. I would gradually work up to him being comfortable with that, then, when he's eating his last bite or two, close the door, leave it for a few seconds, then open it. Act like it's no big deal.
On the...
I did a foot per feeding, so within 2 days, all claws were clipped.
I tried it on the boys. LOL, I got the backs done but luckily the fronts aren't bad because they would have gladly used me as a sharpener!
