At least you're not entirely full of hate. :)
I love cats as well. I'm not sure if I'd choose a cat over a baby, but we'll see when the time comes. Haha.
I've just never been the type to fawn over children.
They run up to you with friggen 2 foot long boogers hanging down their faces and expect you to give them hugs?!?
I THINK NOT!
I would push that kid away with a stick.
Now kittens... Kittens are cute <3 I have 2 cats and one dog
Oldest cat: Nicco 12 yrs
Youngest cat: diamond 2 yrs
Dog: jake, shitzu, 6 yrs
Diamond was so cute when I got her. She was the runt of the litter so she was extremely petit... She used to curl up and lay on my chest, right overtop of my heart, I guess the beating soothed her. She was rather "squeaky" though, and to this day she still can't quite meow. It comes out as a coarse, broken squeak. I took her to the vet, it was a slight birth defect and her "vocal cords" didn't finish developing. It causes her no harm though. She's still pretty tiny... But she got fat... Which I dont understand. She gets 1/2 cup of dry food and 1/2 cup of wet food in the morning, evening and at night she gets a full cup of wet... So I'm not over feeding her, that's only 3 cups of food a day, and she has plenty of time to digest her food in between meals.
Yes, that is a displeasing thought but boogers aren't that bad.
Yes, maybe she needs more exercise. My cat, Freckles a mackerel tabby, just passed a year ago at 12 years. He was quite hefty but it fit him well. My sister got a kitten so for a few years they were always running around together and he got good exercise. Though, he was still a lazy cat.
With all of my animals I always just filled their bowl and let them eat whatever they wanted whenever they wanted. None of my pets have ever been overweight because of it. My dog was in perfect shape his whole life and never had any health problems. That was until he got a growth on his neck and we had to put him down at 10 years.
Oh my goodness I'm sorry to hear that :( its always tragic when something you love passes on, but hopefully both of your pals are safetly playing in a better place
And the reason I feed them in cups is because jake and nicco both have serious health conditions. Nicco is quite old and can't properly digest his food, so I get special food for elderly cats from the vet, but I can't give him too much each go. So I measure out his amount, which is 1/2 cup every 3 hours
With jake, we unfortunately got him from a bad breeder and he was born with both of his anal glands, non functional. It's pretty sad, I have to take him in for shots and tests every month because they're prone to bursting. So he gets special food too, which isn't filled with harsh chemicals or proteins, he gets 2 cups every 4 hours. And with diamond, I just feed her the reccomended amount of regular kitty chow.. Maybe I'll cut back a bit and see if she loses any weight. Her little belly hangs so low it almost touches the floor when she trots lol
Thank you. My cat passing was definitely hard to accept since he got sick and passed shortly after I moved away from home.
It's nice of you to be able to handle two ill pets like that. I'm sure it is quite the burden. Thankfully all of the pets I ever had throughout my life were completely healthy until about the time they passed.
Poor thing, it must be hard to get around with her tummy like that! Haha.
I hate kids

I should let her out more often...
