I totally adore this rocking chair, it is one of the most comfortable pieces of furniture I have ever sat in. I hope the baby likes being in it too. I try to keep the cats off the nursery furniture but I am lenient about the chair (as long as I don’t want to sit in it.) My Aunt Vickie crocheted the beautiful rainbow baby blanket draped over it.
Who can resist sparkley kitty eyes filled with love?
(That is a statue of Hephaestus on the altar by the way.)
My kitties are being a little uncooperative regarding the camera this week, so I thought I would post a couple videos a friend sent me with Simon’s cat. They are hilarious!
There’s a cat who leads a life of danger
To everyone he meets he stays a stranger
(unless they have gooshy food…)
With every move he makes another chance he takes
Odds are he won’t live to see tomorrow
(though he does have nine lives…)
Secret agent cat, secret agent cat…
A question for cat connoisseurs…
Windigo is obsessive about cleaning not just his own fur, but also Aos’s. He will clean himself and Aos to the point of throwing up some pretty scary solid hairballs. Some of you might remember last year he got a bowel obstruction (which was passed after a couple days at the vet) it turned out to be a hair blockage of his own making.
Now the weather is warming again and he is starting the obsessive licking cycle again, the hairballs are also just beginning to start again. I brush him, but honestly no hair comes off with the cat brush. Is he pulling his fur out? He doesn’t seem to be going bald anywhere, maybe his tongue is more efficient then my brush. I use a natural hairball formula which seems to work okay when he gets it once or twice a day.
Has anyone else experience this problem with one of their cats? Could I be doing anything else? I really do not want this to turn into another $500 vet bill.
Someone I know at work sugguested that I get some cat grass from Petco, she said it would aid their digestion. Do you think it would help? Windigo and Aos are indoor cats, so they don’t any roughage from the great outdoors. (I am not against letting cats outdoors by the way, we just happen to live 20 feet from 29th Avenue which is a main road in Spokane.) Aos doesn’t get the hairballs Windigo does, however that is probably because he lets Windigo clean him instead of doing it himself…
while mom’s (and dad) away.
I went to my prenatal appointment with Michael today and forgot to shut my laptop. When I came home it appeared the kitties had been typing. If you look close enough at what it says, it appears they were looking up porno…
I am amused.
This is my sister-in-law with one of her cats, Calico, at Michael’s family Thanksgiving gathering yesterday.
I know I said I probably would pass on posting today but I have a surprising amount of energy.
I can’t believe how close the cats can lay to our space heaters without becoming furry fire hazards…
