I last saw her at 18... I'm now pushing 23 and have moved out of my parents house and have my own little kitty babies. She was found in a shed somewhere with the remnants of a collar. I'm not sure of the exact story.. I just wanted my kitty back. I thought she'd gone off somewhere to die.
She seems better today... and to be honest it's the other kits that are spitting and swearing... She just sat on the sofa (in *my* seat of course) purring quietly to herself.
She really didn't think much of the wormer tablet so she's had a spot-on wormer treatment for the moment and I'll try again with the tablet in a week but the spot on should give it a headstart. It's like she has a sixth sense. Hiding it in food, she ate around it. Hand-feeding her a piece of ham with the tablet in it resulted in her promptly spitting it out and I'm sure many of you can empathise with the demonic inner of your beloved creatures that emerges occasionally when trying to administer medication the manual way. Any tips?
I've got her some senior food (wet and dry) and I'm mixing in a small amount of fish oil with the wet for her joints and coat. Her coat's looking better already now that the lice have gone and she's grooming again. She's getting brushed everyday to get rid of the nits (and to generally spoil her rotten) and there's nothing really wrong with her apart from the worms. She's a tough old girl!
