Cats, cats, cats

What a cute chunky boy!

Togethertolearn how splendid he is indeed.

at least she said please😂😂

Those are funny ladies! haha

The feather duster one cracked me right up.

Squeakers went to the vet yesterday for his annual exam and shots. He has gained 1.4 lbs this year. Can we say too many treats? He's really hard to haul up the vet's stairs. I've considered switching vets to get rid of those stairs. DH carried him; I don't think I could. She reported that he purred while she cut his nails. Quite a change from growls and teeth baring when we tried.

Good morning, cat ladies. Poor Miss Felix had a cat dementia thing this morning. She was meowing at the top of her lungs with her face in the corner and her tail puffed up. She was 1/2" from the wall. Poor little thing. I petted her and she settled down, just purring away.

Petite, Can she see? We didn't realize our foster cat was blind for a long time. He was 18 and knew his way around the ground floor. It was actually the vet who mentioned it first. Cats can really conceal problems because they wouldn't make it in the wild if they didn't. There is also kitty dementia, which it could also be.

Cognitive disorder. Brain fog, chemo fog. Alzheimer’s.

(My Mom's dog has this!... he's an old Lab, 15, and he gets confused, and barks for no reason-- it sounds like he's alarmed, or trying to summon a person to "help", but often I happen to be right there when he's barking (facing away from me). Then if I touch him, he jumps-- having had no idea I was right there!)

Luckily my cats are youngsters. I will get demented before they do.

Our foster cat didn't meow in the corner but he would stand there for a long time. We thought perhaps it was soothing to have little stimuli.

Poor Miss Felix! So glad you were there to comfort her.

On another note, shop kitty (also known as Geraldine) was very unhappy last night. I thought she had been out all day, when in fact she was still inside (cozy and comfortable but not out in the sunshine like she wanted). When hubs got home around dinnertime he laughed and said she let him know her displeasure as soon as he walked into the shop, meowing and scolding him for a good five minutes ha Shop kitty is a stray that we doctored and set up working residence in our woodshop. She practically rules the farm and uses our black rail fencing as her "super highway" Many times I will look out if the grass is wet and watch her walk the top of the fence rail in order to keep her paws dry. Cracks me up.

I took a selfie with the plump cat the other day. Today I took selfies with the little girl cat. And so I realized I'm going nuts
