Please say a prayer for my cat, so that he recovers. I know this sounds like a strange request, but my cat could use all the help he can get right now.

my cat's a pig. i've always been able to crush pills into his wet food and he eats it right up. unfortunately now he's at a point where i have to give him injections, which is nowhere near as easy.

Anxiety said:

I hear you about the injections, those are never fun!

I had an Exotic Bengal cat, so gorgeous. But stubborn

kids, cats same difference. if it is necessary, could you wrap your kitty snuggly in a sheet at least the claws are out the way.

I always say that having cats is sometimes like having kids. No wonder some people refer to them as "fur kids". Wrapping my cat in a sheet or blanket might just do the trick.

yeah they're beautiful. The remind me a lot of savannahs. Except smaller of course...Savannahs are INSANE!! Out of control..

We have a plaque at work that states :

" Dogs have owners, Cats have staff. "

and boy its the truth!

Anxiety said:

Yes, treats seem to do a pretty good job of distracting the cat when you're trying to give it medication.

That always cracks me up when I read it.

Anxiety said:

I think you do. You're lucky.

Another funny saying about cats (which I'm sure you have already heard): You don't own a cat; a cat owns you.

emilia1 said:

Cats are creepy

no one seems to have mentioned that the cat's mouth is UNDER THE NOSE NOT THE TAIL!!!

nurseV said:

nuh uh!

Anxiety said:

terrifying

nurseV said:

Not at all, I looooove cats.

Anxiety said:

Cats are pretty darn cool.

psychodelicide said:

some can be. others not so much. We had one really mean cat at the clinic
once, very fractious. Long story short, I ended up with 5 puncture wounds
to my left hand, and a long term of antibiotics :/

nurseV said:

They aren't, once you get used to them.

emilia1 said:

True, some cats can be pretty vicious. Getting five puncture wounds to your hand and having to take antibiotics for while would not be fun.
