Drinking out of the bathroom faucet *Update 8/9*

[Medusa]

Mary, no matter what else is going on in your life, you sure do have a clean bathroom! I enjoyed the picture of Her Royal Puddy-ness at your (her) sink.

I hope Puddy figures out either the new fountain, the new stairs, or both really soon; you definitely deserve a break!

Hope you have a restful weekend!

Hugs,
Diana

Well, it's just the Fur Posse and I so I really have no excuse for a dirty bathroom. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that Pudwah will use the steps to the faucet. My house definitely is looking like a crazy cat lady lives here. Steps that lead to the sink, table fountains on the floor, iron skillets in the bedroom, good grief! Ah well, she's worth it; all my Fur Posse are. (I wouldn't do half as much for a man, except for my son. LOL) As for the restful weekend, HA! I'm going to watch the Olympics tonight and maybe catch some shut-eye on the sofa. Boy, I really live on the edge, don't I?

LOL! Too funny!

I'm glad you are giving the crazy iron skillet idea a try though. I wasn't really thinking of it helping her add iron to her system but that it might help her drink somewhere other than the sink if she is possibly interested in the minerals.

I'm picturing your set up with the ramp and the gerbil thing and the skillet and while it is funny, it sure does show how much you love that girl!

Kylie does this as well tho I think that she does drink when I am gone from the bowl.
I just let her do it- she doesn't seem to bother me for it at night either. Just when I'm in the bathroom.
She doesn't have CRF altho that's never far from my mind the older she gets. Puddy is gorgeous. Gentle scritches from me.

She's mastered the little staircase w/no problem but she still wakes me up. It's as though she wants me to watch her walk up, so I'm still not getting much sleep. This cat is messing w/my head.

I swear, doesn't it feel as though we're dealing with newborns and toddlers all over again with these critters...?

HA! I never would've put up w/this stuff w/my son. LOL Actually, I think that sometimes it's easier raising a child than a calico. She'll sit at the bottom of the staircase and meow incessantly until I get up. As soon as I walk into the bathroom, she scampers up the stairs to the faucet. She must be feeling a little better, though, because around 4:00 AM, she got into bed w/me and pushed her head into my hand, indicating that she wanted a noggin noogie. She hasn't wanted to even be touched lately; she's been such a hermit. I decided this morning that I'm not putting her back into her room. I want to see if she'll go out onto the patio and get some sun, which she usually loves but instead she ran downstairs into the basement and into one of the carriers. Guess she's just not feeling up to it yet. I gave her the second injection of Epogen yesterday and I'm sure hoping that it's going to do the trick.

That little stinker - wakiing you up when she can get up the steps by herself. Maybe she's assuming the roll of drama queen now and wrapping her Mom around her little paw. Sounds like she is feeling a little better anyway - that's good news.
