  • not gunna make anyone hungry today...


    well, if i don't feel like the worstest parent... the ONE night i don't say goodnight to one of my cats...they ended up up outside on the screened-in porch ALL night long. she feels fine, looks fine, is still talking to me. and i hate to say this, but i think it was good cause when i went out there later to check for potty issues, i found only spit up. well, i think it was spit-up. it appeared to have rice in it, but i knew she hadn't gotten into any rice. when i cleaned it up, noticed the rice looked attached and kinda stretched. so i am looking around on-line to see if i can figure out what it is before we hit the vet. i think it is tapeworm, but it doesn't look the same as the pictures i have found. here are the other interesting pages i found while on my quest: extended years, doctor dog (they have a kitty corner too), vetinfor4cats, pets pedia, and pet toys.com.


    everytime she goes to the vet he says she is healthy, so this probably isn't a big deal, but i may try to get her medicine anyways, maybe the worms are what are making her so large? i doubt it. her appetite is fine. once, well, that might totally gross anyone out. oh well. once she had worm things coming out of her butt, but that was fixed with a shot, years ago.


    lets see, she doesn't have toxoplasmosis, because i do not feed her raw meat or infected animals and she isn't a poo investigator. reading about some of this stuff, my vet had told me way back that humans and animals couldn't catch anything (illnesses) from each other, but this toxo-thing says that humans can develop flu-like symptoms. blehck


    all these things say i should basically be looking in her feces for clues, but there are none!!!


    oh well, spidey needed to pop over here by me, so i must get ready so i can go run errands with! i wonder if i brought in the picture of the worms, if the vet could just give me some medicine?

  • i hope your cat isnt too very sick. mine was a while back and almost died. it was rough, so i hope you dont have to go through that.

  • Bleh.  I prefer you pictures of food. 

    Hope kitty is okay!

  • I'm sorry but I had to laugh at poo investigator.  I hope she is okay.  Damn, we forgot to go by the vet. 

  • awwwwwwww I really hope she is okay! ::meow::
    you can't imagine how happy I was to know that you want to name your daughter syryn. that would be really a great name (not praising my own, really, heh)

  • *worms* o_@**

  • i was eating as i opened it and i lost my appetite ... ewwwwwwwwwww @ that image

  • thanks for all the comments you left me! it amazes me as well that strangers can have so much in common.  hopefully all the movies will be good even though they're gonna be long.

    i'm glad we both have kitties that will still talk to us when they accidentally get left out! does yours go mad and start howling for food and run around between your feet when you walk into the kitchen?
