Boyfie and his meowing for food
He was fed at 7.30 this morning and by 9.50 he was on the arm of my chair
poking my face with his paw for more. I know he cannot be hungry so I put my arm out so it knocks him gently off the chair to tell him no. He tries again at 12. Same result. He gets two pouches/day and some dry, which is quite enough for him, although he obviously does not agree. Just in case he has worms, he got the Stronghold Spot-on this afternoon. It has to be put on the back of the neck and you have to go down to skin to put it there. He was on my knee but was quite suspicious when I parted his neck fur as his winter fur is quite thick and I had to rummage to find skin to put it on. He jumped off my knee at first as rummaging in his winter fur is intrusive for him. We got it done and I'll see if it makes a difference about his ridiculous claim that he has to eat every 3 hours.

Tweed I use a nail file to part the fur from right to left. It gives you a nice strip of skin to apply the liquid. Bobble |

Try petting him when he asks for food, and telling him what a handsome boy he is. Baird -- In theory there is no difference between theory and practice. In practice there is. -Yogi Berra |

Of course the weather may have a lot to do with it. Instinct may be telling them to fatten up. My kitties are eating like horses, and to make matters worse iam snowed in . . . this morning we all shared sausage and eggs . . . They have 24-hour-a-day dry food and milk, but the succulent is what they want. presently all manner of food is vanishing before my very eyes. Now iam out of milkie. Should i give them my soy milk? Would they drink it? Truly |

He sounds cute, being all pokey like Smokey-poke, Persia, Mimi... |
