A couple recent of Zoey

Zoey, Boomer, & Oreo :love:

And here's my last post from the other thread since I didn't realize it was about to be closed :giggle:

My oh my, it's been a long time since I've updated in here! Well, we got a new kitty back in the beginning of December:
6665489575_a8d3a88ae5.jpg


6665489819_0d66a557d2.jpg


Here's a recent picture of her. She's definitely grown in the time we've had her. She was born July 22, 2011 so she's almost 6 months:
6665539187_288d623d20_z.jpg


We couldn't decide on her name until like two weeks ago. First it was Goldie (because of her eyes). Then it was Amelia. And now it's Violet. Sophie and her are still not getting along :sigh:. Sophie is seriously HUGE compared to Violet (and Soph is a normal-sized cat--Vi is just super tiny), as can be seen here, before imminent attack.
6665538733_b0b6e5cfbc.jpg


They have had a few moments without realizing/caring the other one was by them, like in the next picture.
6665539073_7010036742_z.jpg


A month or so ago we brought Sophie in to get a lump under her skin removed. We were so worried, and luckily it turned out to be just a fatty mass. Her stitches and everything healed up nicely :up:.

And now for the most recent cat-related news. Last Saturday my dad was using a pair of carpet scissors to trim some frayed carpet in our rooms. Well, Violet decided to stick her paw in between the blades, so her pad got completely cut. The vet stitched it up and it seemed to be alright; she was supposed to go in this upcoming Tuesday to get the stitches out. However, between her biting at them, her running around, and attacking the cat tree like a psycho, it seems to be back to mostly unconnected. So we have to bring her back in tomorrow to see if they will try to reattach it again, or if they will have to just remove a section of her pad :(. We feel so bad for her. Obviously it was an accident, but I hope she won't suffer from it for the rest of her life.

Finally, here's Sophie wearing a purple dog jacket :D.

And now for an update about Violet's paw. We brought her in this morning and the vet removed the few stitches that were left. He decided to try wrapping it up with a bandage to get it to heal more/better. If this doesn't work, then he'll have to remove part of the pad (only as a last resort). We have to go back in every 4 days for I don't know how long to get the bandages changed. Poor little thing; it looks like she has a boxing glove on.
6670808677_4e314ea76e_z.jpg


She's still running as best as she can and trying to play with her mice. She'll go to grab it with that paw, realize/remember that it's wrapped up, and then get pissed and start to bite the bandage :doh: :lol:. Let's hope this works--at least we don't have to worry about it getting infected or her interfering with it healing.
 
Is there a way to tell if your cat has a cold besides him sneezing in your face like Sheldon's done for the past couple of days? And is there anything I can do to treat it?

Poor kitty...hope her foot heals well!
 
does he have any other symptoms? how's his appetite/drinking? does he seem sluggish?

He's eating just fine. He's become kind of anti-social over the past week or so, but that may be just because he's found a new hiding spot where the dog and the kid can't get to him.
 
Thank you. I thought I was the only one.

So my little kitties are growing up. They are now about 4 months old and are quite rambunctious.

Here is Salome plotting.

And here's Mr. MacPhisto lounging on my new duvet. He's getting really big.

And lastly, I got an iPad and of course downloaded a game for cats. I think they like it.

So I just inherited a cat from my ailing grandmother. I've never had a cat before, so I'm in need of some advice on what brand of cat food would be best for her. She's about six years old and appears to be a bit on the heavy side - perhaps fifteen pounds or so? I'd like to have her diet slightly. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
 
I would feed wet food only or mostly wet food. From my experience my cat has lost weight on a wet food only diet. Dry food has tons of carbs.
 
Wesley is 12.5 pounds and I think he's a big chunk. He's a big guy so my vet said his natural weight should be somewhere in the 12-13 pound range but he just looks like a big fatty to me lately. I can't imagine 15 pounds! :yikes:
 
Boomer is a big bodied cat and he has weighed as much as 17 lbs at one time. I think last visit he was 16lbs. Year before that he was 15.5 and he looked almost lean, he seems to have put some of it back on. Oreo is typically 1 LB less than Boomer.
 
17 pounds?!?! He must be way bigger than Wesley then. My vet told me Wesley is freakishly tall so I always think of him as a really big guy but after hearing that your cat weighs so much more than him, maybe he's not as big as we (the vet and I) think!
 
15 lbs is overweight? Poor Boomer & Oreo :lol:

Yeah, I really don't know what I'm talking about here. My cat looks overweight to me, but she could just be a huge ball of fur for all I know. :lol:

Anyway, I went with some salmon formula food that looks like a quality product. She must like it, because she is now refusing to eat any of her old food.

You should also consult the cat's Vet about this.

Her Vet , who should be familiar with her history, would be the best person to advice you on dietary changes and whether any diet is even necessary.
