Know When It's Time to Choose a New Vet (Pawnation OLD)
Jan 24th 2012 6:42PM yup, I been there too. I have 4 cats, all indoor cats. Healthy as can be. I asked them once if I could bring in all 4 at once to get vaccinations, but only pay one office visit charge. They said no. So what took 15 minutes top I had to pay 4 office fees of 38.00 each, plus the shots. What a rip off. I could see if I tied them up for an hour, but 15 minutes?
Know When It's Time to Choose a New Vet (Pawnation OLD)
Jan 24th 2012 6:39PM I agree with every thing you said. I recently switched to a new vet because the place was really new and had all the latest machines, etc. But it is obvious he doesn't like cats. And he really jacks up the bill with needless tests. He gets you over a barrel with them, because if you refuse, it looks like you don't care about your pet. And he piles on new products to up the bill too. I am going back to my old small-time old fashioned vet.
Prevent Holiday Weight Gain in Pets (Pawnation OLD)
Dec 23rd 2011 12:18PM I have found that the thin ribbons that you curl with scissors are irresistable to cats. I don't know what the ribbon is made of, but my cats act like it's catnip and try to eat it. It is really dangerous to their intestines as it can strangle them and allow gangrene to set in. I don't use these ribbons at all, and if some enter the hopuse on packages I cut it off... it's that bad.
Why Do Cats Stare? (Pawnation OLD)
Dec 17th 2011 11:13PM I will get stared at with love....really. They look right in my eyes and their eyes are full of love. When I catch them looking at me like that, I will bow my head and tell them to come closer, and they walk up and rub their head on my forehead. I call that 'kitty head-butts".
Sometimes they are just "spacing out" and I happen to be in their field of vision. Sometimes they are hungry and they are trying to telepathically tell me to feed them....lol.
But most times it's the love thing. Sometimes they look like they are smiling at me too. Cats are way more intelligent than people give them credit for. I have owned dogs and cats, and cats were always smarter.
Trimming the Tree With Oskar the Blind Kitten (Pawnation OLD)
Dec 17th 2011 11:06PM lol......you must be a dog person.
lol....she should discipline cats.........lol.
Dogs might let you discipline them cause they are so submissive.
Cats?.....lol.
Thank you, I haven't had that a good laugh in a while :o)
Trimming the Tree With Oskar the Blind Kitten (Pawnation OLD)
Dec 17th 2011 11:03PM Thank you so much for your videos of Oskar. My cat is developing blindness in one eye and I was heartbroken because I felt he would not have a good quality of life when he became blind in that eye. He is still young. But after seeing your videoes of Oskar playing and having a normal happy playful kitty life, I now know my cat will be fine and I don't have to fear it or feel sorry for him. Your Oskar is precious, and so is your other kitty :o).
I want to wish you and your kitties a very happy holiday season. :o)
7 Things That Drive Vets Crazy (Pawnation OLD)
Dec 17th 2011 10:51PM You are so right! We must have the same vet. I really hate the stuff he pushes on me that the animal really doesn't need, including extra tests.
On another note, the author sounds like she hates cats. And loves dogs. She didn't say one bad thing about dogs, notice?
7 Things That Drive Vets Crazy (Pawnation OLD)
Dec 17th 2011 10:46PM My vet is a great salesman. No matter why I bring my pet in, he advises really expensive tests and tries to push pet shampoo, special foods, etc. If they were needed, I could understand. But they are not. He really has me over a barrel on the tests. If I say no to the unneccesary tests, I look like I don't care about my pet. Like I said, he pushes way more on us than we need or can afford. One time our bill for what turned out to be a basically healthy cat who had vomited, came to 1,500.00! One visit! In this economy we had to charge it and figure out how to pay it later. I asked my vet the other day why one of my cats eyes had turned suddenly opaque, and he said "How should I know, I'm not a cat eye doctor." Can you beleive that? I thought vets had a general education in everything, or if not, could look it up. Nope. Are vets now specializing like human doctors? God help us.
Blind Kitten Plays With a Hair Dryer (Pawnation OLD)
Oct 14th 2011 2:19PM That was a pleasure to watch. I was struck by the thought that while sighted people can't "see" the wind, Oskar CAN see it. He such a sweet kitty. I am glad you have another cat too, because that one will automatically become Oskar's seeing eye "dog" . Enjoy that little happy furface for a long time :o) Thanks for sharing with us.
Bodega Cats (Pawnation OLD)
Aug 14th 2011 4:45PM I used to work in a cheese factory in Hinesburg, Vermont years and years ago. They would take all the crumbs that were a byproduct of making feta cheese and place them on long wooden plank shelves in the drying room to be made into parmesian cheese later.
LOL....the "drying room" had a small household fan that blew over the cheese. The room itself had an outside wall that had chewed holes in it where the mice came and went. One day someone noticed cat pawprints on top of the crumbs and asked if the hole to the outside should be boarded up. Answer? No, because they would rather have cat's walking on the cheese than mice droppings in it! LOL. True story.
