What did your pet(s) do today?

He slurped his puree in record time. I think he has winter appetite. Both yesterday and today, he looked down at the empty bowl and back up at me, looked down at the bowl and then back at me before loudly complaining, "That's all there IS???" to which I replied, "No. You have a full bowl of kibble and water. After that, that's it."



Then he tried to run when it was time to do his ears. Luckily, he's old like me, so I was able to catch him. He tolerated the medication and pet session afterwards and then ran down the hall to the Holy Grail, looked back and me, and cried. Nope, kiddo. You have to wait for the meds to soak in good before you go tossing your head on my white comforter.



Then he pouted for a few minutes until he forgot why he was pouting and laid down to nap.

When the time was up, I went into the bedroom, made the bed and called for His Highness, who came bounding into the room and up the stool to the bed, where he is curled up, happy as a clam, whilst I go fetch the noodles from his litter box.

Nothing unfair about that at all.

Awwww, I love your stories of Oliver. Love reading the details.

I see that Mr. Oliver gets to sleep with you EVERY night now (or so it seems)!

Smudge peed in the house (again) ..... This is new behavior, he has never been a marker in the house before. So, since he peed today, he gets to wear his pee belt all day while we are working. At least they have cute little tug boats on them... It makes him feel a little less baby and more like a navy sailor.

My foster dog bit my friend the other day. I had to bring him to an experienced trainer yesterday. He is back in a kennel and he looked at me with such sad eyes when I left him there.

Heidi is most unhappy with me this AM.

A vet visit for routine HW test & refill of HW meds PLUS nail trims (vet cut two in quick and had to use styptic on them) and anal gland express..oy vey...

eta: vet told me if either of cut nails began to bleed again to just dip paw into some cornstarch..would act as clotting mechanism...who knew...

What did I do for them?

I brought home some prescribed cat food for Mister Mortage (one big cat!). I was fearful he wasn't going to like it. What luck, he loves it and the other two turn up their noses. The vet girls also sent me home with a can of wet food to make into treats. Put some on a cookie sheet, bake, and you shall have treats.

Well, put some a cookie sheet, into the oven,and maybe for the first 5 min, it smelled really good. Then it turned to yuck. There was no treats. Just a mess, I can't even describe it, lol.

Yep. We've worked it out.

New behavior doesn't happen without a reason. Have you told your vet? Urinary and bladder issues often lead to marking behavior.

I'd be unhappy with you, too.
