We did a flashback to how we used to make the med-treats which includes an old coffee grinder, eyedropper, bowl, fingers, paper towels... Ah it is easier than it sounds and has worked! We know what they need and mostly what they like so we are herding cats.

Cancer has cut short far too many lives.<br /><br />I love all my cats, but some are for comforting, some are for playing and some are for laughing. When one has gone, it changes the character of my home and my life. I always will miss those I've lost.<br /><br />Godspeed, Maisie.

She was my loyal companion for 11 years and I miss her so. My cat, Lucy, 5 months ago.<br />I still have the two tabby boys so I'm grateful for their company but they have their own agenda!<br />Keep up the good work, John. I love reading about your crew and have picked up a few pointers from you!Pattyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09807487427206982481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6508973452758369679.post-80957965559540168962020-04-14T17:56:44.725-07:002020-04-14T17:56:44.725-07:00John, you posted a condolence about Iza on my Mark...John, you posted a condolence about Iza on my Marks Mews Blog. And since you were unfamiliar to me, I followed the link back to your blog. You write a wonderful blog. I am impressed.<br /><br />And I am very impressed by how you care for some cats with challenging conditions. I declined to do those sub Q shots with my heart cat (back in 2008 but I might try it in the future) but the vet told me he was nearly beyond that helping by then.<br /><br />I see from your profile that we have a lot in common. So I have added you to my feedly list and we will see if something lasts from that. One always hopes.<br /><br />Best to your cats and you for your dedicated care...<br /><br />Mark<br /><br />Mark's Mews (Marley, Lori, Loki, and Binq)https://www.blogger.com/profile/11135668126649348317noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6508973452758369679.post-70074158823105789932020-04-14T15:53:58.761-07:002020-04-14T15:53:58.761-07:00You are doing a great job managing all their healt...You are doing a great job managing all their health issues.pilch92https://www.blogger.com/profile/12263559408792146826noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6508973452758369679.post-72946891092184579832020-04-14T10:27:44.607-07:002020-04-14T10:27:44.607-07:00Twenty!

Which causes me all kinds of worry, since I assume they don't like the food. For Sweetie, leaving a half-empty bowl is no problem, since she's alone in her apartment. Manny, however, has Vacuum CB on his tail at all times; food left out is to be eaten! We try to lock Manny in the kitchen, locking out CB, but Manny more often uses his kitchen time to jump on counters and try to eat through the bread wrappers. Funny how each cat; mine, yours...have unique food styles. Which equals WORRY for us humans...Eastside Catshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04707701446222007049noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6508973452758369679.post-7621316788899997262020-04-14T05:38:32.245-07:002020-04-14T05:38:32.245-07:00Always a delight to see our pets eat properly.

John, those of us who have had sick cats completely understand the balancing act that you as the dad have to effect each day. The days when one isn't presented with a concern or something more worrisome than a mere concern, shine like the sun among our days. I remember setting forth on the new day with a huge smile that reached all the way to my inner self when Admiral seems to be a normal cat doing normal cat things. It was like receiving a gift.Katie Isabellahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04298277081648176277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6508973452758369679.post-15635371950936854562020-04-14T00:21:37.113-07:002020-04-14T00:21:37.113-07:00Goes without saying John..You give them
