I had a marvelous day yesterday at Cat Scouts. Sammy of the Worldwide Wildcat Troop put on a Greenhouse warming party and we all brought our nip plants. Well, I had a riot chasing some mice out back with a few of my pals. Needless to say I overindulged in the nip and mom informed me I sounded weird so we should go home.
Once home I did what every cat that was “nipped” out would do…….I slept.
Today I was chompin’ at the bit to get out in the sunshine. So dad let me out. That was early this morning. Mom called and called me but I never showed up and I usually come to her by the second calling. By 2pm, mom was fussin’ and fumin’ as to where I was…..so dad, wanting to put mom’s mind at rest, MOL….came lookin’ for me. I was found fast asleep under one of the neighbour’s 87,000 old cars. Dad took me home and told mom where he found me. Mom kept me inside but I was tired and didn’t want to go gallivanting about. I crawled up to my condo and continued my pleasant dream.
Kali had her own objectives for the day. Rising at 10am, she went tripping sleepily out to the deck.
Kali hasn’t been feeling so great lately and so mom decided to give her some Barley Cat…this aids with digestion. Kali came back in for her beef Fancy Feast. Mom thought she was being real sneaky by putting the Barley Cat into the Fancy Feast. Kali looked at the Fancy Feast, looked at mom, shook her front paws and walked away to lay down in her basket. Not the reaction mom wanted at all. Mom waited for an hour and then took a teaspoon of food to Kali in her basket. Kali proceeded to gobble the food down as if she hadn’t been fed for days. Mom tried this again with the same results. Mom got the bowl of food and gave it to her and Kali got up and finished the bowl of food.
Now, mom is just shaking her head wondering about us. Why am I found sound asleep under an old car when I have so many comfy places to sleep right here? What is Kali trying to prove by declining her food and then eating the same food when it is spoon fed to her? Every day different.
You should nap in your own yard, preferably in the house where you are safe. That is cute that Kali wanted to be fed. I hope the Barley cat makes her feel better.

The Cat Scouts nip pawty sure was fun! Shoko, we hope you will stay in your own yard when you want to take a nap outside. We are happy that Kali ate her food. Sometimes when we are not feeling well we like to be hand fed. Sometimes the humans have to do whatever it takes to get a cat to eat. Love, Cali, Andy, Tater and Shelly (C.A.T.S.)

Hope Kali’s tummy feels better. Bindi doesn’t know it yet but she is going to our vet on Saturday morning to get her teeth cleaned.Sasha’s teeth are always in great shape.I suspect it is because she delights in taking an occasional chew on anything knit,especially gloves.

Kali decided this morning she wouldn’t eat the wet food with the Barley Cat. She quickly went and lay down in her basket. Mom peeked over at her and she looked so alert and intelligent…..clear blue eyes. Mom took a teaspoon of food over again and Kali gobbled it up…so in the basket went her bowl of food and it disappeared too…she obviously likes this way of eating. Today I’m hanging around for mom to come back out and we’ll do more planting.

This is interesting Dharth. Mom knew Fancy Feast beef was a flavour but not that chicky was added. Kali was just able to eat Fancy Feast after both of us being on Hypo Allergenic Soy HP because of her food allergy. Fancy Feast seems ok with her as she no longer gets diarrhea when she eats wet. Sounds like this Performatrim is worth a try…I’ll get mom to look for it when she is out and about….thanks cuz.

I have many health problems Dharth. I lost all but 4 teeth to a tooth disease that many oriental cats get. I am also allergic or was to commercial catfood. Although I love chicky, chicken, according to the vet, is the hardest protein for me to digest. I also have feline acne. It looks super bad because I am so white. Mom changed everything I bite or lick to glass or ceramic because the plastic helps cause feline acne. Hope that answers your question Dharth.

Apparently, the vet said, the commercial manufacturers slip something else into the chicken which Kali finds very hard to digest. I don’t know what it is. I felt the same as your mom did, that chicken was easy to digest…not so. Kali has tried many foods..venison, buffalo…you name it. Fishes usually had an immediate reaction and she could get quite sick. Mom is anxious to try this Performatrim on Kali.
