Does your Cat (or any pet) misbehave since caregiving your loved one?
Have you been required to take care of your loved one's pet after they have passed? Does your pet have cute antics that entertain your loved one?
And finally, has the cat or dog transferred their loyalty to your Mother?
I will definitely have the vet check her out of it happens again. You are absolutely right.
Does your cat have hairballs?
Cats shed heavily during the fall and spring. As a result, you might notice an increase of hairballs during these seasons. Long-haired cat breeds may also be more susceptible to seasonal hairballs.
Occasional hairballs once a month are okay, provided your cat doesn’t have other worrisome symptoms like inappetence, lethargy, or withdrawal. However, hairballs once a week or once every 2 weeks can be a sign of food allergies, atopy (environmental allergies) or IBD (irritable bowel disease).
Generally, vomiting should not ever be accepted as a normal behavior. Because it is a symptom of so many potential illnesses, however, you might want to have your cat examined to rule out serious medical conditions if it seems to be happening more than normal.
I have heard about pumpkin, but forgot.
She got up for a few minutes, licked a little tuna fish water, but not enough. She is only 4.
Might have to take her to the vet tomorrow.
Pet store also have a gel that I use to give my cats when they had such a problem. One cat I had to dab it onto her paw as she wouldn't lick it off my finger. The dab worked as she had to lick it off the top of her paw, occasionally she would fling it onto the wall.
My hubby's son's cat had this happen. He was constipated and the Vet also found he was starting to have age related kidney issues. Special diet food has been helpful, and he's back to his old self.
So I have banished her from the bedroom. She has a second litter box in the storage room and a second water bowl so she should be ok and I will definitely be more OK!
🥰 The word “homeowner” has the word “meow” in it. Good luck pronouncing correctly ever again.
I have OCD.
Obsessive Cat Disorder
He was unique. Just like his brother who passed 3 yrs. ago. I always used to say "He's an all around great little guy" Sure was.
So sorry for your Henrick.
I know it is a terrible loss.
Henrick 💔
I have to say, I believe that all of our loved ones that have gone on before will be there to welcome us to our Heavenly home, so you will see your furry friend again.
We had to have our beloved Henrick put down today.
My heart is broken.
Oh, do not use the Hefty brand of clear plastic storage boxes as a litter box, as for some reason the urination odor gets into the plastic and smells terrible. No such problem with the Sterilite storage boxes.
Her name is chi, not Hitler. She hides a lot, I'm her one and only favorite owner. When company does see her they giggle. Maybe she hides cuz she is embarrassed. 🤷
Yeah I love, the peacefulness of the early morning when the rest of the world is asleep, except I need the sleep, so I'm trying to break the habit.
Not really an early riser but one with weird sleep habits. I generally wake up in the small hours, take my thyroid meds then wait an hour (while on my laptop) to have coffee and a little early breakfast. Some nights I get spurts of housekeeping energy that I can indulge in when R is away. When he is here I don't want to disturb him. Then I go back to bed and catch a little more sleep.
That's a good idea , raising the litter boxes. The angle I scoop the litter is not a position my back likes me to do. Lol I never thought of raising them. Can't do that to are older over weight girl but might have to someday.
nacy - way to go!!! Great that you figured it out. Some of them are very touchy.
I rearranged Rocky's new litter box (with higher sides) to a spot that's easier for me to clean around (picture me at 5 am on my hands and knees scrubbing) and spent some time with her reassuring her it was OK. I know she gets put off easily. But all is well so far. She has "christened" it both ways so it should be good now. I may get the top for it yet. We'll see. I'm getting too old for this hands and knees stuff. We can take mats and boxes down to the carwash bay in the underground parking to clean them.
I figured it out!! My Siamese cat stopped going number 2 in the box after, I soaked the boxes in dish soap and a little bleach. She has been better the last couple days. I'll leave out the bleach next time. 😆
