For animal lovers

CaliLily, I'm sorry to hear about Augie. I've long suspected my little guy is developing dementia. He's totally blind and at times his behavior is very forgetful and disoriented, not just associated with the blindness. It's hard to see them age and develop the same illnesses and diseases people do .

gabriel, I think Joey eats better than I do! He's one lucky guy.

ACF- I am saddened to read of your little guy and his problems. I know you do everything to make it better.

Joey eats better than ANYONE I know.

No Chloe, you can't go live with gabriel and joey....
She likes Whiskers Lickin's, crunchy tuna for nightly fetching. She has to run to get her treats.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE just let me visit Joey.....


Joey doesn't run for anything anymore. He makes Daddy run.

Temper tantrum...

Lol! Chloe looks like she is in jail there. "Let me out, I was framed!"

ITG, you should use that as an avatar some day--I love it!
ACF, it's hard to see our animals age, isn't it?

Joey has a dry food mix of Iams and Wellness healthy weight mixed.
Joey has Wellness wet Salmon and trout
Joey has Wellness wet Sardine, Shrimp and Crab
Joey has Merricks California Roll
Joey HATES science diet
Joey turns his nose up at ANYTHING the Doctor recommended

Here is his routine:

First thing in the morning (before daddy gets coffee, but after the fresh water is gotten in the bowls and the box is scooped) Joey gets a half of a 3 ounce can of Sardine Shrimp and Crab. (this will also be left out if there is any left.)
Before Daddy goes to work, he puts out the 1/3 of a cup of the dry food mix.

When Daddy gets home, Joey gets a tablespoon of people ALBACORE WHITE tuna. (Daddy gives out fresh water at this time also)

Just before bed (daddys) Joey gets 1/2 of a 3 ounce can of Salmon and Trout or the California Roll and Daddy MUST put the hard food away (this is where I was slipping) and Daddy MUST cut back on the friskies party mix (Beachside crunch)....

It is all Daddys fault........

When I followed the routine, he had lost about a half pound.

So is it better to scoop the litter box before coffee when you are still groggy or after when you are more alert?

So after reading the bolded part, I have a vison of Joey in sunglasses with an umbrella drink lounging by the pool while other female kitties in bikinis stroll by and there is salsa music playing in the background and everyone is having a PAR-TAY!!! With bowls of the Beachside crunch of course.

Better while groggy. That is too funny about the sunglasses with an umbrella and a PAR TAY and bowls of beachside crunch. Thanks for the laugh.

That's what I thought.

Waldo can be the poolside DJ, spinning tunes for the PAR-TAY.

Why is it that the dogs must get me up at the crack of 6AM on my day off just to eat and GO BACK TO SLEEP? Naturally I'm wide awake..

Why does this just strike me as normal?

Because they can

If I had to get up at that hour for "somebody's" breakfast, and I couldn't go back to sleep, that would be a perfect time for me to hit the treadmill...perish the thought!! See? I always knew that things happened for a reason! God likes me "fluffy".
