Got all my fluff back - see?
No bald spots on my face, no itchy scabs on my neck and shoulders - I'm gorgeous, don't you think?
My human insists that she'll never know for sure, but she thinks it was the fancy dental treats with "Aspergillus niger" in them. She says "Aspergillus niger" is a kind of mold, and she guessed that it might be making me itchy. So she went to the grocery store and got what she calls "plain old cheap dental treats" but what I call yummy! It's called Meow Mix Crustacean Crunch, and I don't mind the silly lurid colors at all because they taste delicious!
I still get a little bit of canned food a day with all the different things mixed in - 3-V Caps, Cosequin, fiber, and chlorpheniramine - although sometimes I don't even eat it unless I finish off all my yummy kibble first. She hasn't been giving me very much kibble, either! I guess she really wants me to eat the canned stuff, or she wouldn't put so much Kitty Kaviar in it (sometimes I just nibble a few flakes off the top and leave the mushy stuff). She thinks I'm nuts - it's "organic" chicken and salmon, whatever that means. But it's at least partly prey food - sometimes I find whole grains of RICE in it! Yuck! I have to be pretty darn hungry to eat GRASS SEED! *sigh*
I'm sure she's doing her best, though. These days she's always trying to get me to stand still for a brushing, and in this damp weather it really does make a difference to have some help keeping my fur untangled. And this morning when she was making her sandwich, I asked nicely, and she gave me a piece of deli turkey! So she's not always so by-the-book. Right now she's still playing with that keyboard, despite the fact it's long past time for us to go to bed, and it's a perfect sleeping night. Mom? Come on, let's catch some ZZZZZs.
Love, Smudge
