Medicine

My tummy has been improving, but I'm still on medicine every other day. I'm sick of taking it! :( I am now on a campaign to spit that yukky pink stuff all over Mom when she gives it to me, in order to voice my protests. I've also taken to begging at the table. It might give her the clue that I'm not so fond of liver and kidney for dinner. I only really like the chicken, and Skimble hogs it all the time! Otherwise, I'm just keeping up my meowing campaign. Hee hee.

Weekends

Weekends are bliss. They are my time to be with my humans exclusively. They don't have to run off to that place called work, and we can sleep late. I like to lay on my pillow and watch the sun slanting through the shade. I can see the patterns of the plants growing outside, and occasionally a sparrow will come close and hop around a bit. If I walk across Mom's head, and get on the dresser, I can squeeze between the shade and the window, and have a whole glorious world of sun all to myself. Later, Mom will be busy with other things, but in the afternoon, she usually sits for a bit, and I can be with her and purr on her lap. It's just fun to have humans around!

Raw Diet

It's been a very busy summer! I've been in and out of the Dr's office many times, because I kept vomiting. After a few months of antibiotics, my tummy feels much better and I've been putting on weight and feeling much better. At the same time, my Mom is changing our diet. We are now eating a raw diet. If you are curious about it, I'll just state this and then send you on to better sources. A raw diet is basically meat. Cats are carnivores and if on our own, we eat prey. A proper raw diet is based on a prey model. Now, if you want to know the health benefits and learn more, please take a look at rawfedcats.org or join the Yahoo Group. Since we've been on the diet, our eyes are brighter, our fur is softer, shinier, and sheds less, we play more, we have better muscle tone, we feel better, and the best benefit of all is that our bathroom smells a LOT better! I didn't want to eat it at first, but Mom won me over with CHICKEN!! YUM!
