Re: [Felvtalk] Whimsy - check up results
I have found a new treat made for dogs that the vet says is okay for cats. It is duck breast meat, water and glycerin. It is like jerky, but no salt. Canyon Creek Ranch Duck Tenders. They can't eat the long strips, but cut up in small pieces is great. All I have to do is pick up the bag and everyone comes running.

Re: [Felvtalk] Whimsy - check up results
Hi, sounds like Whimsy just does not like going to the vet. a couple of mine act wierd upon return from the vet. Mostly, I hate you so I will ignore you and hide from you. This goes on for a day and then all is forgiven. Right now, my guy and girls haven't been out for 3 days because of weather. Right now we have 5" and snow is still coming down. Right now, they hate me and do everything to drive me nuts trying to force me to let them out. Homey snuck out when i fed the birds and turned around so fast she almost knocked me down. Then she stood at the door with a "Why won't you let me in, it is cold out here" look.
