Posted April 23 @purplehaze Pippin is not a bright cat. lol @trystan I think he might be a bit darker, yeah, but he's old now. He'll be 14 on the 30th! He did get his new toy today~ He was pleased. And by pleased... I mean he figured out that he could knock treats out of it. @Long_Before_SunriseThat is adorable. Share this post Link to post

Molly was 6 at the end of 2023, so says her birthday (December 2017) at the vet. she was rescued, so we don't really know her actual age. Share this post Link to post
Posted April 23 Pippin was adopted from the... ASPCA I think. He was a hoarding house kitten. Poor baby. ❤️ Share this post Link to post

Posted April 23 1 hour ago, AsymDoll13 said: Oh goodness. Poor things! I hate that people hoard kitties. It's just horrible. Agreed. When we adopted Silver last year, because we already had a bunch of cats, we needed someone from the humane society to come out and do a home visit to make sure that we weren't hoarders. They knew hubby because he volunteered at the humane society, but they just needed to make sure, because their usual policy was not to adopt out to a home that already had multiple cats. But we passed with flying colors, and the humane officer had some really scary stories to tell. The one that stuck with me was she was called to a house where the lady only had 1 cat (maybe 2?), but she did the box like every 2 weeks that's not how that works. Share this post Link to post
Posted April 23 That's not how that works at all. Pippin has decided that Bestie and I are not terrible people, but we are in fact okay enough to sleep on the bed while we played around on our laptops. The calming treats we gave him may have also helped. lol Share this post Link to post

Nope. And it's back. Good morning, CPA! *sets out coffee, teas, juices, apples, brownies, and toast with jam* Cloudy and grey. No rain as yet and I hope it stays dry long enough for us to shift the outside donations inside. Share this post Link to post

We tried Feliway once, but it didn't really work for us. We just order some treats on Amazon that Pippin will usually eat. So... yeah... Share this post Link to post
Posted April 23 yeah, actual Feliway didn't work for us either. this is some other off-brand that we hope works. Share this post Link to post
Posted April 23 It didn't work with my cat at all, when Gilbert lived here. lol Share this post Link to post
Posted April 23 we tried it at the beginning of the year, only on the first floor, and after about 10 days, it seemed like the kitties were getting more obnoxious. So this time, we've got a diffuser on each floor, and we'll give it until next Wednesday or so, and see how it's going. Share this post Link to post
Posted April 23 Let me know. I'm curious now. lol. Old man Pippin could use it. His bloodwork came in great btw~~ Share this post Link to post

Posted April 23 A local rescue operation around here for cats has been grabbing the kitties outside and getting them fixed to be released. Today we couldn't feed the kitties outside, and they were completely annoyed. They're so cute! Emma's little sister is fixed, and we've been trying to get her mom, but that Melody is too smart for us. She also just had more babies so... yeah. We're trying to get Emma's big brother in too. His name is Smidge, and he looks just like Ms. Emma. Such a cute family. Share this post Link to post

Posted April 24 I just hope they got Smidge. He's a good boy. He was born under the trailer. Just like Emma~ But his mom isn't Emma's mom, so... he could even be her dad I guess... I dunno, really. But saying brother is better. I guess. I don't know. *Shrugs* Share this post Link to post
