Shaved Calico Cat

Posted on August 18, 2017 by Oldcat

For whatever reason, this year has been a rough one for the longhaired cats.  All the boys and Rhea have been having a lot of large hairballs, and Rhea even had a big wad of hair get stuck being pooped … Continue reading →

Back from the Vet

Posted on June 2, 2017 by Oldcat

Davout did fine at the vets, losing a tooth on the way.  I don’t think it was his snaggle tooth, if you are worried.  He was a bit scared on the way out, so I opened up the carrier lid … Continue reading →

Today I started the pictures with Rhea and Davout at playtime, so as to not be only about the new fellows. But the text will be more about them.  I got a late afternoon vet appointment for the two of … Continue reading →

Vets for Rhea

Posted on October 28, 2016 by Oldcat

Rhea had her annual checkup today in the morning.  She passed with flying colors and was only a little grumpy on the way down because of an accident on the highway. She didn’t have the same clear sailing with her … Continue reading →

Wounded

Posted on September 12, 2016 by Oldcat

For the last several days I have noticed a scab on Anna’s back.  It wasn’t hurting her then and I have been testing it since.  This morning she flinched when I tried it, and pressing a little harder made some … Continue reading →

Hot Time

Posted on August 12, 2016 by Oldcat

Davout got his vet visit in the afternoon.  He’s not a fan of going to the vet even though everyone just gushes over him there, even the doctors. It was made even worse because there was no A/C in there … Continue reading →

Vet Visit

Posted on July 11, 2016 by Oldcat

Davout had a vet visit this morning for his year three exam.  All the signs were very good, and he has some blood work upcoming.  He was pretty scared while there, but was polite despite that.   Tonight, though, he … Continue reading →

Haircut

Posted on May 5, 2016 by Oldcat

Davout had his haircut today, which looks pretty good.  He’s trimmed close from the bottom, so if it warms up he will be more comfortable and hopefully fewer hairballs. The bad thing is that the groomer said he was so … Continue reading →

Rhea Sans Tooth

Posted on April 14, 2016 by Oldcat

It is a hard lesson Rhea had to learn – stay away from dentists, even the vet kind.  You don’t get out of it just with a cleaning even when they say so repeatedly. Yep, on closer look one of … Continue reading →

Worrying about Harrison

Posted on March 2, 2016 by Oldcat

Rhea has a routine vet visit tomorrow morning, but Harrison will be going along too. Harrison has not eaten anything today and seems sluggish.  He does drink water, but isn’t interested in food.  This is quite a change.  He’s a … Continue reading →
