Decisicion time - Fister!

Yes Yorkster! I peed today - and yesterday!! My humans let me out in the backyard yesterday evening, I had such fun rolling around in the grass and checking everything out under bushes and in the flower beds. Great time! :D

Randi here! Fister forgot to tell how naughty he was! He wouldn't come up again, so at 23.00 PM I went down to look for him and he sat on a table watching every little movement. He let me stroke him, but when I said: Are you coming up now? he growled at me!! Then an hour later (I was definately ready for bed!) I shook the dry food container and he came running. Down the stairs again, but he hasn't finished looking around yet - might still be something interesting :rolleyes: , so I lost my patience and put something in the door and went back up. 10 min. later, there he was, in the middle of the living room. So, time to rush to the kitchen and close the door!! :rolleyes:

Hi, Fister! Sirocco here! :D I admire you sooo much, I've been reading your coming and goings when Nita left the PC unattended... hehe, and I'm a good pupil - I've invented a Spanish version of your wanderings. We don't have backyards here... but I've discovered the FLAT ROOF - all Triana roofs are under my feet now ;) I know how to meow in the most pitiful way to make her open the door to the flat roof and let me spend some time inspecting the surroundings!!! It is very funny: the other night I spent an hour looking at the moon from a chimney near my house and Nita was standing there so close, but she couldn't reach me, calling my name to make me go back, jeje :D Very funny indeed!

Headbumpies from your pal,
Siro

Nita here... oh Randi, I know that too well - Now that Siro loves going up to the flat roof (which is a nightmare for I can't prevent the rest of my neighbours to go there and open the door when they have to hang the washing out! and now Sirocco recognizes the sound the door makes when opening and there he goes in his very own fast and sneaky fashion :mad: :rolleyes: ) I have to be always on the alert! And when I see him back, I rush to the stairs to close the door!! (It's quite tiring too, being up and down the stairs all the time :eek: )

Mmm, very funny indeed (!?) ;)

It's best to choose a saturday morning, because the vet are closed during weekends

yes, aren't the kitties GOOD at doing that?:eek:

Hola Sirocco! Fister here. ;) I'm glad to hear you've invented a spanish version and have found a good place to go! Us cats we need a bit of fresh air and exercise now and again, so I can definately relate! It must be quite a good view you have from the rooftops of Triana - I'm a bit envious! ;) How I would love to sit there with you and look at the moon, it's so romantic! - but I have to remind you to be careful up there, don't go too close to the edge, it's probably a long way down and you can hurt yourself! :(

Ps. Have you met any other cats up there? I hope not!! :p

So you take care! :D

Lots of headbumpies and purrs from you pal,
Fister :cool:

The week of Christmas my dog became sick and I had to keep her at the vet with iv's, they tried everything but her kidneys were failing. She just turned a year old 2 day before I had to put her to sleep. That was the hardest thing I had to do. She was my best friend. Now 4 months later my cat is sick. I took him to the vet. The vet says he has a renal obstruction and it sounds almost like the exact thing my dog had. I just feel it is strange that both have the same problems. Could it be that possible that something at my house is causing this. Please help. He is at the vet on iv's and not sure if there is going to be any hope. If anybody knows of there could be a link please let me know.

RedC- I have no idea how you managed to add your question to that old Fister thread because many people won't find it here.

There IS hope- you can learn that from the thread.

The blockage can be caused by many things. As soon as it occurs you have to take the cat to the vet as a blockage can be life threatening.

If it is a so called idiopathic Urinary Tract Infection, cortisone might help. My Tigris had that one and a half year ago, he got antibiotics and cortisone and was soon ok- and has stayed ok :)

If it is crystals, a diet may help. If it does not help, there is surgery like the one Fister had (but I think it was not 2002, rather later).

Cats are prone to UTIs unfortunately. It will be nothing in your house that caused it.

Hope your kitty is well again.

Wow, way to give me a heart attack! I thought something serious had happened with Fister overnight while I wasn't on the computer. Whew! Thank goodness it's an old thread and all is still well with our favorite orangie boy. :D

rdc, sure hope all turned out well with your kitty. Can we have an uppydate please? :)
