Updates and running commentary from our critters

Of course they do! It’s like pre-warming the bed by turning the electric blanket on (for those of us in the colder regions).

Scottish/English version of “idiot”. My brain always says it with a Scottish accent. :grin:

Chonk has at least 2 designated spots to lie in our living room. Where does the assclown decide to plop himself but in my reading chair.

He’s lucky he’s cute, but I managed to lure him away to “Pillow” :grin:

My boy kitty is now larger and heavier than his ancient “sister” - who now functions as his pillow. I don’t think she minds. He eats like a horse!

Hopps doesn’t understand words, even Hopps. If you toss him a treat and it lands between his feet, especially his hind feet, it takes him a loooong time to find it.

For some strange reason, all of my cats have also understood (and often ignored) their names. I had one who was like your Hopps re: treats - put one anywhere other than right by his mouth, and it became a challenge.

Chonk would not stop begging for food today :roll_eyes:

Is why he’s a chonk.

Ziggy is 7 1/2 months old and he now weighs a pound more than my girl. He eats constantly. Treats? Shovel them in. He’s not a picky eater, either. I’m afraid I’m creating a monster. Or at least a monster size cat.

He also now has all his adult teeth. The better to chow down …

Chonk doesn’t even get treats, nor is he interested in any people food. But he is hungry 24/7 :roll_eyes:

Ziggy hadn’t walked away from food … except when I tried to hide some meds in it. Then he went on a hunger strike. It’s what cats do, of course.

Hopps gets his pills with bread and butter. Butter half a slice thickly. Press the pill in. Fold it over and crimp it completely. Butter the top. Offer it on the palm of your hand. Do NOT try margarine. Bacon fat is ok. Do NOT try a second pill. Each pill gets it own piece of bread.

Crimped like homemade ravioli? :joy:

Owen, the 15+# black cat, takes his kitty ‘cookie’ like a communion offering. Today he was given a 1/4 cup portion of pureed chicken livers. He enjoys this every other week or so.

Mine have all liked freeze dried salmon treats. They snort like little piggies. No respectful religious rites with this bunch. What can I say?

I looked for these at TJ, nope. Where do you buy this?

Life Essentials Freeze Dried Wild Alaskan Salmon by Cat-Man-Doo. I get them online. Warning: expensive. We Pity The Kitties used to make them, but they stopped.
