Yes, she's been my alarm clock for many years. She always helps me get ready for work, too. I used to have to wait for a cab, and in the winter I'd get dressed and put my socks over the vent so they would warm up, then when I was all set I'd put my socks on and stand over the floor vent so I'd...

This morning Randy woke me up happy and purring instead of sneezing (she's my alarm clock). She has still sneezed quite a bit today, but less. I haven't found my calendar yet for last year, but I looked through this year and this is the first time so far, so I bet she was all runny last fall...

Thanks iPappy. I have a calendar around here somewhere that I've kept track of her health, I should find last year's and see what time of year she was last runny. The air quality here has been pretty bad, I guess still because of wildfires. Maybe the air quality is affecting our pets. Since her...

Hello, It's been a few years since I've been on this site, but you've all been really helpful in the past, so here I am again. My cat Randy started sneezing a few days ago. We're packing up to move, and kicking up dust, and of course Randy has to help. She's always had this strange plastic chew...

The cuddling happened years and years ago. I think as Wayla got older and slower, Randy's rough housing was too much for Wayla. It got to where Randy would not let Wayla go upstairs if we didn't stop her, and Randy would not let Wayla eat if we weren't watching. But then there were times when...

Also, do you all think Randy could be feeling guilty for having bullied her? Do cats think that way? I don't want her to feel bad.

Hello. My cat Wayla died last Thursday, she was 17 years old. My other cat, Randy, is 13. Wayla has always been here, Randy has never been a cat alone before. They never really got along. Sometimes when they were younger, we'd come home and catch them cuddling, and Wayla would be embarrassed and...

Thank you all for writing. I don't think it is an ear infection, because she doesn't act like she feels sick. She doesn't scratch at her ears or anything. She has been losing teeth off and on for a little bit now, and has gotten into the habit of shaking her head after she eats. The only time...

Update: I found a can of Friskies in the back of the cabinet (it was not expired) that Wayla used to really like (I quit feeding it to them because it would give my other cat diarrhea). I brought the food to where she was comfortably sitting on the back of the couch, and she ate a lot! She even...

I didn't know it was safe to feed cats baby food. I'll give that a try. Thanks!

Thank you, FeebysOwner. I have ordered some Zesty Paws Wild Alaskan Salmon fish oil for Wayla to try. Do you think that would help? She hasn't been getting the wheat germ that made her feel so good because she's been eating so much less and I mix it in her food. I wonder about trying wheat germ...

Thanks for responding so quickly. I would call and ask Wayla's vet, but he retired several years ago. She has been so healthy for the past 10 years that I never took her to another vet, thinking the risk to her immune system and the trauma of going wasn't worth it since she wasn't sick. I don't...

I don't know how to go about this without a lot of back story, so bear with me. My 17 year old cat, Wayla, had a rough start to life. The vet said she got vaccines when she was too young, and they ruined her immune system. When she was a younger, she almost died from worms that we couldn't get...

I didn't know there was such a thing anymore.

Yeah, I just always worry that she'll pick something up at the vet. What if she's fine, she seems fine, but then I bring her to the vet and she catches something she can't get over?

My cat Wayla is16 years old. She has had a bad immune system her whole life. The vet said she received her vaccines when she was too young and it messed her up. She almost died 3 times when she was a kitten, twice from worms, once from toxoplasmosis, things cats usually get over quickly and...
