Aside from some tumbling between Possy and Pixie, I am amazed at the strides that Possy has made towards accepting these two hooligans. While she will bat and chase Pixie a little when she gets riled up, it’s going really well. Here’s the milestone I’ve been waiting for since day one: (that is...

So they ended up scraping the first 7 layers of her eye. The vet thought she saw what looked like a really small fiber or piece of glass. My guess? When the kittens first got let out, there’s one way she can get above the finished room in the basement and she likes to go there when she’s really...

We get to go pick her up in about an hour. She’s still pretty groggy. I’m curious too! Don’t know what she could’ve gotten into. She’s an indoor cat!

About four weeks ago I ended up taking Possy my 2yo into an emergency vet to get her eye checked out. It was swollen/red and draining. They did a green dye test, didn’t see anything and believed it to be feline herpes caused by the stress of two kittens coming home. The e vet prescribed drops...

For what it’s worth, my kittens learned to scale all of the baby gates blocking the doorway to their room. At this point Possy would still hiss and growl. So I let them loose. She still does a bit of they touch her, and aside from an occasional swat if she wants to be where they are, that’s all...

I am pretty sure I broke my cat.... This morning, wrapped her up nice and snug in a kitty burrito.... Grabbed the syringe, and she opened her mouth... And quietly took her medicine.... Didn't even have to hold her head still... Fluke right? This evening, she did the same thing..... My cat is...

Definitely aware of the aspiration risk. I always go slow for this reason too. Took two of us again tonight. She puts up one hell of a fight haha

Yeah it’s white at the base. She’s got stripes on her belly too. Bizarrely colored cat!

She hates bananas so much too that's why its so ironic.... To stop her from jumping on the counters as a kitten, or my workbench, I just put bananas everywhere....:banana2:

So, Possy is my 2 year old DSH. She is my heart cat, and has a very unique personality. Along with her unique personality, she's got a very strange coat pattern. I was asked by the emergency vet, on the phone, to describe her coat, and I couldn't! A dilute tortie maybe?

So, while the kittens are dealing with their URI, Possy has developed her own issue. What we thought was a scratch on her eye, turned out to be feline herpes. My vet couldn't get her in last week Wednesday, so we called another local vet who was able to sneak us in and get her checked out...

Can you desensitize her to the bag? The blanket I use is my cats absolute favorite blanket to sleep on. If I used something she isn’t used to she’s smart enough that she’d know when that item comes out something bad is going to happen. I had to desensitize her to her cat carrier too. I put her...

That’s a bummer! Possy will sit their and growl a bit but she won’t fight.

Can you make her into a “cat burrito”? My Possy (dilute tortie) cops an attitude when it comes to nail trimming, brushing, flea meds, anything of that nature. With her I end up wrapping her fairly snug into a fleece blanket. It immobilizes her and she tends to just give up when I do this. I just...

They played tonight. Like all three of them did zoomies and rolled around together tonight. I am amazed. And these two are so zonked from it this is the earliest they’ve passed out. Also getting super big too. Almost surpassed Possy (she’s only a 7 pound cat-smallest cat I’ve ever owned)...
