LOL, I'm laughing because DH returned it to the pet store this morning. Poor Seymour was so frustrated he could only get one piece of food out and looked up at me with such pitiful eyes.
I'm feeding him smaller portions more often instead to compensate. Problem solved, he's much happier now.

and Seymour. I'm so happy for you and your fluffy boy. He's adorable such a sweetie.
Smart people thinking alike!! So FunnyLOL, I'm laughing because DH returned it to the pet store this morning. Poor Seymour was so frustrated he could only get one piece of food out and looked up at me with such pitiful eyes.
If doing small portions, an auto-feeder has kind of changed my life. I've had gorgers/regurgitators and it was hard to time/control a Tbsp here and there. The auto feeder can drop about that much every so often. It's so nice. Weight is kept pretty stable too. Just another thought!LOL, I'm laughing because DH returned it to the pet store this morning.

EVERY CAT should have a tunnel! Ours has been enjoyed for years, in houses and in the catio in the Mojave, by many feline family members.Smart people thinking alike!! So Funny
Yeah, that is pretty much what I am doing..
Since Tux did not eat all his breakfast with the Zykene yesterday; I gave him a smaller portion of food this morning with the Zyklene mixed in it... It works..
Oh, Have you tried a tunnel yet?? I got one for Tux, a crinkly one with a bit of fleece at edges, a dangling fleece ball, and an opening in the middle.. It is great. Tux loves it! I am sure Seymour would love it also.. Maybe a Christmas gift??
I have two of those exact cat tunnels and have had them over 30 years! Blue nylon on the outside and fleece on the inside. One end has extra nylon and a drawstring to be able to make the opening smaller or close it off completely.
Oh--- Look at him go!! OMGosh.. so gorgeous.. so sweet... I love Seymour!Yesterday Seymour got his get out of jail card, i.e. the run of the house with careful supervision. He was more than ready and went running down the stairs followed by checking out the patio door which was Carleton's favorite spot too.

Great news -- I'm so glad to hear this! Hoping your snack and naps were fulfilling, and wishing you both a good evening/night!Seymour had his first official vet exam today. There were a few minor things that have to be addressed especially a dental cleaning, (no surprise considering where he came from before we adopted him). But overall the vet was pleased with his demeanor and health.
He was thirsty and tired after we got home so a snack and afternoon nap were in order, for me too!
He even knows what time we set the alarm to wake up for the gym during the week because on weekends when we try to sleep in he jumps in bed, goes up to our pillows and purrs loudly in our ear to get up. Some of his habits remind me so much of Carleton especially when he sits in the same exact spots where Carleton liked to sit, lays in bed on my laundry or how he likes to inspect shopping bags. It's bittersweet but he has acclimated nicely. I keep telling him how much I love him and this is his forever home.
Seymour is adorable! and it's nice the way he has learned from angel Carleton who is obviously watching over you all and giving Seymour some imPURRtant pointers. Wishing you all a very happy sixth week Adoptiversary!Today is exactly 6 weeks since we adopted Seymour and he has adjusted well. He knows our routine especially where we keep his food.

Yes, he certainly has adapted to our home. The breed tends to look grumpy but considering his former background before the rescue got involved he was basically abandoned. One of the foster mom's requirements for adoption was a quiet home. Having adopted cats for so many years it still amazes me how much a cat changes when they are fed good food, groomed, have a warm bed and people who love them.He looks so much happier now than he did in the first pictures you posted. He`s obviously made himself right at home.
