Artie is worrying me a bit. It is after 6pm and he has not eaten anything all day!!! This is the longest he has not eaten.
I will say, that he had a scare.
All of the following happened back to back, at around 4pm: He peed, then pooped, 6 1/2 x 1/2; Then he got his cisapride. The med has to be given on an empty stomach.
I picked up his food dish, with food in it, placing it on the counter. I went over to the coach for about 20 minutes. The plan was to give him his food back, remixed with some water.
I suddenly heard something hit the floor, looked, no Artie. Then I heard a crash, plop.. I jumped up, Artie ran out of the kitchen, ears back.. I was saying, "What did you do? What did you do?"
When I got into the kitchen, his fork was on the floor, the food dish was in a ton of pieces with wet cat food all over the floor, rug, and cabinet door!!!
I was immediately saying, "Out, Bad Boy, Bad bad bad boy"... Of course, he wanted to come in to investigate. I was freaking out that he would get a shard in his paw, or cut his paw.. I kept yelling at him, "Stay out, OUT, Bad, Boy"...
It took he half an hour to pick up the pieces, wipe the food off of things. Then I had to pull out the steamer, get the pad, fill it up, and steam the floor. Artie was trying to see what was going on and wanted new food!!!!!!!
I really had to shoo him out.. I ended up doing a quick mopping of the great room, also.. just because I had the steamer going.
I finally got a new bowl out, opened up a new can of food... Artie REFUSED it!!!! I thought that was strange.
I went back to watch my program. I kept smelling really strong food... I finally went over and smelt the floor. The floor still smelled. I ended up on my hands and knees using lysol peroxide cleaner, rinsing it off, and drying the area. It does not smell now.. It is a normal smell.
I also lit a candle in the main area.
Artie came back over to his food, but sniffed and walked away...
I am trying to get him to eat, but he is refusing.. I am a bit concerned.. it is now 12 hours since he last ate..
Hoping he gets his appetite back when it turns dark....sigh.. this cat..
I really liked that bowl. It was the right size for him, and he liked it also.. Now I am using an oval cat one.
I have a bunch of small dishes for him, but nothing for the new food. sigh..
Seems like there is a black cloud over me, lately.... sigh nothing but bad stuff happening.. and a lot in a short period of time.. did someone put a bad spell or hex on me?
