Does your Cat (or any pet) misbehave since caregiving your loved one?
Have you been required to take care of your loved one's pet after they have passed? Does your pet have cute antics that entertain your loved one?
And finally, has the cat or dog transferred their loyalty to your Mother?
My brothers lab pulled me around for an hour once. He would have kept playing if I hadn't collapsed in exhaustion.
they lasted about 3 weeks.. she has managed to rip them and pull out white stuffing already! This is a 15 lb chug,, not a 50 lb pit bull! I swear we need "toy of the month club", and I feel bad because we have to take them from her and toss them, don't want her pooping cotton balls! She is heartbroken and looks at the table where we keep her toys ( to switch them out) and just whines. We do have some Kongs, and they are great, but she loves the softer toys. Some of her older stuffed toys have held up.. I am at a loss here. Any suggestions? Her older toys are from when our DD"s 5 lb chihuahua was still playing with toys. So they are old..
Playing calming bird videos help him, and putting his cage on the floor, covering it at times helps. But allowing him to fly around free on his own schedule allows him the freedom to do what birds in the outdoors do, and that is to take flight just before the earthquakes. An early warning system to be sure, plus the dogs barking is a good warning, and all true in my experience.
MsMadge,
You do have some EQ experience!
Guess I want to know if you adopted a puppy or guard dog when at the Humane Society????
What DID MSM decide to do in 87?
🙈
do they sense something
wait,
what's that rumble?
oh, it's the street sweeper - 😂
Tgif
send, I come from a long line of quake survivors
Paternal grandma was in a building that collapsed in the 1906 SF earthquake
the Viking was roller skating and got hit by a brick in the 1933 Long Beach quake and was in the driveway that became like a wave machine and the garden wall came down in the 1987 Whittier one
cousins lived near the epicenter of the 1971 Sylmar and 1994 Northridge earthquakes
and, I had to decide whether to ride out Whittier in the shower or run outside naked
years ago, I remember being at the humane society and one of the cal tech lady seismologists was sitting with a pound puppy - she was helping keep it calm -
can you hug Tweety ?
Did you feel that?
Hey MsMadge,
Do the hoca residents notice?
Have you got your bottled water in good supply?
One gallon minimum per day for each person.
And we have some to share.
under my feet
4.1 @ 4:45 p.m.
3.0 @ 4:47 p.m.
3.3 @ 4:51 p.m.
3.6 @ 4:52 p.m.
Prior to that, I went to the computer to see if this swaying/shaking was my imagination or just dizziness, or was it all in my mind?
2.6 @ 12:50 p.m.
2.8
2.5
2.7
2.7 @ 2:42 p.m., only seconds apart.
2.5 @ 2:42 p.m.
Not a complete list, but feeling things above 2.5., even though it is 150 miles from the epicenter. Anything lower is unknown, because the download crashed my kindle.
Aw, felt that last one @ 5:50 PST. An empty water bottle crackles, and Tweety stopped chirping, churling, or chirling-a sound parakeets use to calm themselves.
Anything lower is unknown, because the overload crashed my kindle.
Hoping everyone is okay, and in Louisiana hurricanes too.
3.2 @ 4:57 p.m.
3.1 @ 5.08 p.m.
Continuing.....
Nala the cat is stopping by to support Daniel in his recovery.
She is all grown up now.
However, I have to agree it is very hard to watch them age. I have no idea what I am going to do when Sam passes away. My BF and Sam are the best buddies. My BF acts as though when Sam goes he will be ok with it...I don't believe that! Maybe I will get him a dog this time. Although at times I had wonder if Sam was a dog in a pass life. LOL Because Sam gets in bed with us and goes around in a circle 3 times before he lays down; he loves to get into the garbage can, in fact, we had to buy different ones to figure out which one can Sam not over take and make his daily mess. Ugh! And Sam loves to drink out of the toilet. We try to keep the seats down but my mother forgets.
Love your kitty they are only with us for a very short time.
I wish you and Charlie the best! 🐱
But yeah, it's sad when they get older and start to slow down. I hear ya!
That has been some really good care you have given to your elderly cat!
You will miss him when it is time.
He's been under regular Vet care for the past couple of years. Last year we started him on fluid transfusions which was started to help his kidneys. He is also taking pain meds for his arthritis, and meds for high blood pressure.
Then I need to keep telling myself that he is equal to 90 in human years. He's has had a beautiful life, crazy as all get out, silly, comical, lot of entertainment, and had a human speaking vocabulary of a dozen words.
Too funny
My DH probably wouldn't even need a reason. The garage is one of his favorite places to be, I could just put a cot out there and I would probably never see him. hmmm, now that's an idea.......
J/K I truly love him.
Honey, I stubbed my toe. Could you spend the night in the garage?
Oh damn, the dishwasher overflowed.........do you think you could spend the night in the garage?
I am sooo constipated............Husband: yes, I know, I'll get my things.
I tried to think of a funny response, but I got nothing.😁
And Send...as far as the storms,all my babies are scared. Precious and Lovee' hide under the same bed back in the Catroom and the other cat's roam and dart and they're so restless until the storm is over.
Then after we finally got rid of that smell, what did he do? He found a dead armadillo and rolled in it and then smelled like something dead. So a repeat of the above, still smells, and he is back in the garage.
But the storms do not bother my fur babies, just me.
How are they coping in the storms?
