Koda Havening Trouble.

[HiddenFlame]

Ok everyone. Koda is fine. It was only a minor flare up of her peeing crystals or something like that. I watched her all day and while she was being hidden all day, I kept her happy with treats to keep checking up on her. I will still take her to a vet when I find a good one, just in case. But right now. She is herself again. A bit quieter, but she is fine.

Oh, good! It's always such a relief to find out that they're actually okay, isn't it?

She's a bit timid but she's doing ok

 

[Antonio65]

Is she normally timid, or do you think there's still something not quite right?

 

[HiddenFlame]

I think she jus wants to be left alone for awhile. When you are sick or getting over sickness. You want nothing to do with people. I'm sure she is the same right now.

Hi, so good to hear she's more herself. Let us know what happens and what the vet says

 

[HiddenFlame]

Got another question...

She likes to yell at me. She could have a full bowl of food, water, an a clean box. But she will look at me like "HEY HUMAN" I go to pet her and she runs away. So when I go back to doing whatever I was doing she comes right back to yelling at me. I follow her when she run and it under the bed. I'm so confused with her right now.

 

[Furballsmom]

Hi - have you had a chance to shine a flashlight under the bed - is there a toy under there? Speaking of toys, when she starts hollering do you have a wand type toy (lots of folks like da bird) to dangle for her to chase, or real fur mice to throw, kickie toys to toss for her to grab, that sort of thing?

 

[HiddenFlame]

I've tried toys. She doesn't seem to care for them.

 

[Furballsmom]

not even real fur mice? yeow toys? electronic toys? Catnip?
Before the Big Guy came to take over heart and household, I had a mostly maine coon who was utterly unimpressed with 'nip ...

 

[Furballsmom]

Say, I just came across a reference to honeysuckle cat toys - maybe give one or two of those a try. Good luck

 

[HiddenFlame]

No promises shell like it. I've tried balls, catnip, catnip covered balls. The three fuzzy ball danglers, so far only thing laser pointer is her go to toy

 

[Furballsmom]

I personally have reservations about the laser lights, but in this case, when she starts singing, what if you got up and rather than approaching her, walked in another direction. If she's interested and stops yelling (hopefully) to follow you out of curiosity, then interact with her, --give her a little laser time and then always finish with a treat. You of course don't want to encourage her meowing, but yet it would be good to help her expend some of that energy I think she's building up.

 

[HiddenFlame]

Gotta get a new one. Mines battery is low

 

[HiddenFlame]

ok. We have a Koda Update. While It may not be odd for most cats, but Koda is being very purry and cuddly lately. She normally dosent like to be held, touched, or cuddled when im in bed, but for some reason, today she is being all loving. I dont know why, but im not sure if i should be worried or not

 

[Furballsmom]

I don't know but it could be she's responding to your stress? However, you're not wrong to be paying attention to a big change in behavior. I don't know if you told us how old Koda is? In any case at this point, I'd say enjoy it to the max, and keep an eye on everything else

 

[HiddenFlame]

She is 7 now I think

 

[HiddenFlame]

I got a motorized ball with tail and a new pointer.

I got a motorized ball with tail and a new pointer.

[HiddenFlame]
