Just seen your 'Minion to Gypsy since 2016!' Love it! I never thought of myself as a minion but I clearly am as Kate and I are at the bottom of the ladder in this house!
Carters fur is getting back to normal now his thyroids been regulated and the huge brushing sessions help. I use a clothes brush this only for cats to finish off his grooming and remove any loose hairs. It's a three brush job! Cat brush, flea comb then clothes brush! The sofa has become a...
Welcome from Barnet in NW London UK and my two four legged friends, Carter (17) and Hugo (3). The photo with the two curled up is beautiful. While my two are like brothers from other mothers they like their own space so them curling up like that is just wishful thinking on my part! Enjoy the...
Bless him! Hugo is a box cat in that he will try to fit into any box regardless of the size. He's not as graceful or expert as Maru the Japanese box loving cat on YouTube though! I'm still waiting for a cat video only version of YouTube called MewTube! It will happen!
Just had another look on Amazon.com and all the Licky-Lix is between $3.25-50 per box of five sachets with a postage charge of between $8.50-9.00.
I will find out what the postage and packing would cost to send you some from the UK to the US because here it's £0.80 per pack of five 10g sachets...
As far as I know it only comes in Salmon and Chicken flavour but is amazing at hiding any medication. I sometimes manage to make one sachet stretch to two servings as half is enough to disguise the contents of one 150mg Glucosamine capsule. There's quite a lot of powder in each one and it...
It was quite amusing blending up cat food! I've found you the link to Amazon.com with Licky-lix available in the US. It's the chicken flavoured one and its $19.25 plus $8.99 postage. You get six packs with each pack containing five portions. Thirty in total. I'm not sure if you can get them...
Over the last few days I've become even more convinced about the amazing effect that Glucosamine has had in Carter. I have been giving him the contents of a capsule sprinkled on top of the thin pate like treat, Lickylix. I then mix it up and it totally dissapears. Sadly he will only take this...
I found this thread while searching for anything about the Manchester bomb attack. I remember this day so clearly. The day before London celebrated winning the 2012 Ilympic bid. My dad said to me that this would lead to a terror attack. He was due to go into Central London the next day and...
Listen to Cher singing Believe with particular attention to the vocoder type effects whenever she says 'believe'. Hugo and Carter hate it! Their ears go down, they go all low and suspicious as if trouble is coming. I found another YouTube video of two cats howling at each other in more and more...
I have a brand new cat enclosure made for kittens. It's made up of sections that clip together to form an enclosure. It's made of thick rigid wire and has a door on one section. It's made for inside or outside use. I got it for Hugo when he was 8 weeks old to give him a space of his own and to...
The tightly packed corrugated cardboard with cat nip inbetween each layer. Made from free boxes from the supermarket and packed into a cut down box. I used children's white glue, PVA to glue each layer and cut it with a craft knife and ruler to get clean edges. The cat nip was sprinkles on the...
To stop mine from scratching the arms of the new sofa I covered them with strips of double sided tape. When they scratched the sofa the tape stuck to their paws and they did not like it. They didn't do it again. The tape was really weak so didn't hurt them or damage the sofa. Hey hate anything...
To the tune of The Clash song 'Rock The Kasbah' we change the lyrics and replace them with 'Carter doesn't like it, Eat your crunchies, eat your crunchies!'
Hugo gets his name inserted in there too! It's ridiculous but the sight of two adults singing to the cats warms my heart. When I give them...
A really good solution is to get some carpet tiles and put them in the area where they claw. They are cheap and can blend in if you match the colour. Cats think they are clawing real carpet so feel that they have won! After buying expensive scratching posts that were epic fails the cheap and...
Carter and Hugo love the DIY scratching box made from a cut down rectangular cardboard box stuffed with layers of corrugated cardboard inside. I cut the cardboard into strips the same length and height as the box and stuff them in so the corrugated edge is exposed. It provides hours of cat...
