Shed that weight!

  • Nov. 11th, 2009 at 2:53 PM
Hi everyone!

I have two medium hair cats that are almost 10 years old, a male and female. We took them to the vet last week for shots and check ups. Lucky weighs 12lbs and Prissy is at 9.5lbs. I've always been a little concerned about their weight, but the vet said that since they're big cats, their weight is fine, but don't let them gain any more and that yes, they would be okay to lose a pound or two but be careful with Prissy (9.5lbs).

So while struggling to get rid of all that shedding cat hair off of them, we're trying to come up with ways for them to diet. They both share a food bowl so we can't really tell who eats the most. We don't have money for a cat tree to try encourage some exercise, so does anyone have any ideas what we could do? They're not yet 10 and so they still have a long life ahead of them and we want to help them out.

Thanks!

=)

Penpal Info
How many penpals do you have? None at the minute :(
How many do you want? I’d say no more than 5
Do you want email pals? Yeah I guess so
Do you want snail mail pals? Definitely, but due to practicality at the minute maybe only in the UK/Ireland
How long are your letters? 2-4 pages I guess, varies between hand written and typed
How long does it take you to reply to a letter? Hopefully no more than a week, unless I’ve been away or been super busy! Obviously quicker for email!
Would you like your penpal to be male or female? Either is good with me :)
Age Preference? 15-19
Where would you like them to be from? Email: Anywhere. Snail Mail: UK/Ireland only atm. If you start off emailing it might progress to snail mail I guess.
What are you looking for in a penpal? Someone who can keep up with my constant rambling (or at least try) and who isn’t put off by quirkyness or randomly attatched pictures (or maybe music/little presents) and who won’t just become uncontactable after a month or so. I guess someone with religious beliefs would be interesting too!

Guess What People!!!!!!!!!

Terry and I were visiting his ex-wife (yes all three of us are friends-weird as that may sound) and she had taken in a little kitten to save it from being dumped in the country. She couldn't afford to take the kitten to the vet and the kitten was antagonizing her old crabby cat so much, she asked if we would take her.  We made the deal that if Courage cannot accept her at all by the end of the month, we will give her back to Wendy, spayed and pay for her all of her first-year vaccinations she will need.  I'm so excited!!  The new kitten is a female, which we named Cinder. She seems to be male-orientated which is a big relief for me.  When we found Courage the summer of 2008, it was very obvious Courage had been abused by a man. Courage bonded tightly to me but we had to work hard on getting him to trust Terry.  The abuse Courage suffered still affects him to this day.  We have some scummy neighbors living next door who spent the entire weekend screaming, yelling, and slamming doors at each other. When they start fighting, it reminds Courage of his past abuse and he starts getting fearful of Terry again.  I know it hurt Terry to watch how close Courage and I are and not get to be a part of it. With this new kitten, he now has a cat he can be tight with.  I'm not giving her much attention so she will bond with Terry better and Courage won't feel like he lost his throne. Anyway, here are some pictures of Cinder's 1st day home with us.

Age: 18
Gender: Female
Location: Singapore
Occupation: Stuuuuuudent
cDream Job: Undecided. Maybe a zoologist/marine biologist/microbiologist/translator/linguist/something with National Geographic/boss of my own company. I'm fickle. 6^^;
Language: English, Malay, Arabic, learning German. and attempting to learn Japanese. ^^
Religious View: Muslim. (:
Relationship Status: Single.
Sexuality: Straight.

About Me:  I’m a second year student pursuing a diploma in Biotechnology. I spend practically the whole day at school so I tend to rant about it quite a bit :p
 

According to the Meyers Briggs Type Indicator, I’m an INTP. I’d say it describes me pretty well ^^ (kudos to anyone who actually looked it up; the article’s super long XD). Generally, I’m quite reserved, but I’m veeeery chatty with family and close friends. I love cracking lame and corny jokes. I’m pretty random. And eccentric. XD I pride myself on my ability to see the funny side of things. I can be sarcastic at times, but it’s all in good fun. XD I’m able to see things from different perspectives so I’d say I’m open-minded. ^^/

Interests/Hobbies: I enjoy reading, writing, drawing, origami, arts and crafts (unfortunately, school eats up most of my time so…D:). I also looooove to travel. I love culture and languages. I’m starting to have an interest in photography as well. I go gaga over cute/unusual stuff. X3 I’m a huge fan girl and *ahem* I tend to have crushes on fictional characters. Xp

Music: Hmm. According to iTunes, my music consists of mostly rock. :p Besides that, I also listen to some Jpop, Jrock and recently, Korean songs (yup, it got me too XD). Some of my favourite bands are Three Days Grace, Breaking Benjamin, UVERworld, Royal Pirates, Linkin Park, the GazettE, Mayday Parade and Yellowcard. Anyway, if you have any band/song you'd like to share, feel free~ I'm pretty sure I'll like it too X3


Movies
: I…enjoy a rather weird mix of Pixar/Disney movies and…horror movies. Heh. I also like comedy and action. ;D Here are some of my fave movies: Meet the Robinsons, Toys Story, Nightmare before Christmas, Resident Evil, Horton Hears a Who, Transformers and recently, Coraline. I intend to watch Paranormal Activity as soon as I have some free time. C:

Books/Authors
: Well, basically most of the stuff I read are fantasy/horror/adventure. Harry Potter is definitely on the top of my list of fave books. So are Vampire Academy, Mortal Instruments trilogy, Wicked Lovely, books by Darren Shan, Holly Black and Amelia Atwater-Rhodes. Oh, and Sarah Dessen writes awesome books as well. I also read children’s books, like the Children of the Red King series, the Septimus Heap series and the Casson family series. ^^

I also collect manga. :D Fullmetal Alchemist and Vampire Knight are ♥. So are Ouran, Yankee-kun to Megane-chan and Fruit Basket. I'd love it if you recommend me manga/books =D Oh, and National Geographic magazine. *nerd smile* XD


TV: Not much of a TV person. From what I did watch, I liked Chowder, Avatar: the Last Airbender, Ben 10, a bunch of anime from my secondary school days (Beyblade, Shaman King, D.N.Angel, One Piece, Samurai X etc) and some Japanese/Korean dramas (Hana Kimi, Hana Yori Dango, Bloody Monday, etc). ^^


Penpal Info
How many penpals do you have? 6. I still haven't heard from some of them though and am in regular with only one. :)
How many do you want? Um, 1-2 more?
Do you want email pals? Yup.
Do you want snail mail pals? Well, not really. I don't like waiting, haha.
How long are your letters? It depends on the topic and the letter length. If you write me a long letter, I’ll reply with a long one.
Do you hand-write or type? Well, obviously I type for emails =p
How long does it take you to reply to a letter? Depends on how busy I am. It might take a few days to at least a week, I guess. I’ll give you a heads up if I’m really busy. ^^;;
What gender do you want them to be? Either is fine.
Where do you want them to be from? Outer space. It'd be great it they're from say, Europe or Northern/Southern Asia. But I'm not too fussed. C:
What are you looking for in a penpal? Someone with a sense of humour, open-minded and easygoing. A good friend. It’d be cool if they can speak German or Arabic. Desperately needs someone to practise with XDDDD But it’s not a must, really. As long as we have common interests, it’s fine. Oh, and someone who won’t stop writing back after a few letters.
What age do you want them to be? Umm…I’d say around 17-20, but again, I'm not too bothered about this. =D

Quick question for any AUSTRALIANS on here (I haven't been able to find a more Aussie-specific community): what is the Australian attitude to cats?

I love Australia and I'm thinking about moving there in a few years, but I also love cats and I've heard that a lot of Aussies hate them because of their effect on wildlife. (Was recently reading about John Wamsley, ugh.) Can anyone confirm or deny this?

Kitty tongue?

  • Nov. 10th, 2009 at 8:24 PM
I have two cats, Taz and Spock. I've had Spock for over a year now, I guess, and I've just noticed in the past month or two that his tongue is often sticking out a little bit. His mouth will be closed, and the tip of his tongue will be poking out. I was just curious if anyone else's cats did this? It's kind of funny, actually.

And a picture of the little stinker... )

It's been about three weeks since my brother got his new kitten, Gabriel (Gabe.) He went back to the vet today to get some more shots and he's gone from 1.5 pounds (at 5 or 6 weeks old) to 2.8 pounds. He's getting so big! So, I thought I'd post some more pictures. )

New Mommy

  • Nov. 10th, 2009 at 7:21 PM
Hi all! So today I became a new  mommy to a three month old kitten named Spock. I rescued him from ARF (Animal Rescue Foundation) the told me that he & his brothers & sister were abandoned there in a plastic tub with a lid on it and no air holes swimming in their own urine in July when they were newborns and they didn't think they'd survive. He's the last of his litter to be adopted out and I'm so glad I was the one who adopted him & he chose me.  He is such a sweetie and follows me everywhere. He is just a joy to be around. I'm sure I'll have lots of questions here since it's been a long time since I've had a kitten of my own.

Mm...I couldn't find a tag in the sidebar that had anything to do with submitting pen pal info...so I just looked at a few others that have been done and I've incorporated mine from the format they used. This is also the first time I've ever submitted anything regarding my irl info...so I still feel a bit cautious...
And if I missed any crucial info, please, somebody tell me so I can fix this.

Hobbies: Writing stories and drawing. I also love making arts & crafts.

Main Interests: Anime & manga, animals, drawing, writing, internet, movies

Music: I like songs, not music.

Books: My favorite novel is probably The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. But I also like Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass. Oh, and I've read all the books in the Harry Potter series. Putting that aside, I also love reading manga.

Movies and TV: I love movies! I wish I had enough money to go to the movies every time something good comes out. My favorite movie is probably...Spirited Away by Hayao Miyazaki (sp?). It's a really good movie. I also love the Pirates of the Caribbean series, and the Harry Potter series. Other favorites of mine are Austin Powers, Blades of Glory, Horton Hears a Who (the newest version), The Benchwarmers, and The Ultimate Gift. As far as television series go...I don't really watch TV since I'm always on the internet or doing something else. My favorite TV shows would be these: The Fresh Prince of Bel Air, George Lopez, Home Improvement, Drake & Josh, Malcolm in the Middle, Everybody Hates Chris, and basically anything else on Nick @ Nite. I also like watching the Animal Planet channel and the History channel occasionally. As far as cartoons go (western cartoons) I like The Fairly Odd Parents, Xiaolin Showdown, Looney Tunes, and Duck Dodgers. That's about it though. Western cartoons nowadays are losing the funny because these new series are...well I find them to be just dumb.

Video Games: I don't play video games as much as I used to, but the Pokemon series never gets old with me. I love those games! My other favorites are The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker and Super Smash Bros. Brawl. I love Nintendo games period.

 

Pen Pal Info

How many pen pals do you have? I have never had a pen pal. ;A;

How many do you want? It doesn't matter. I love meeting new people and making new friends, just as long as they're willing to talk about various, sometimes random, things. :D

Do you want email pals? Sure. I won't give out my email until I get some pals first though.

Do you want snail-mail pen pals? I don't know what that even is, so I can't give a Yes or No answer. Sorry. D;

How long does it take you to reply to a letter? I check my email everyday.

Would you like your pen pal to be male or female? I like having friends of both genders, so it doesn't matter. ^^

Age? I mostly have friends around my age or like two or three years older than me. I would prefer friends 14-20 years old, but beggars can't be choosers right?

What are you looking for in a pen pal? I'm just looking for somebody to chat with and perhaps look at the entries in my LJ. I like getting feedback. :D

Where would you like them to be from? Anywhere! It's been a childhood dream of mine to have friends from around the world, so it doesn't matter at all. ^^

Clever cat is also frustrating!!!

  • Nov. 10th, 2009 at 1:20 PM
I don't know if I need to vent or brag about Tommy, but I wanted to share a story.

Tommy's been with us for about 3 months now. He was fostered in a house with 15 other cats before ending up "on display" at a PetSmart nearby. He'd been adopted and returned once before he found the right humans - us! We figure Tommy's about 2 1/2 years old.

We also have another cat, Mietze, who we think is about 3 1/2 years old. Where Tommy is a goofball who looooved to be petted and loved on, Mietze is our little Princess, so beautiful you just want to sit and look at her stunning beauty - but please don't touch! ;) (We think she had very little human contact before she came to us at around 8 months old)

Mietze, being the Princess she is, likes to nibble at her food. Tommy, being the boy he is, likes to gobble food down. Just about any food. His, hers, ours... it's all Nom nom nom-able. (Except dry food, which he only eats when he's actually hungry...)

So here's how we're trying to deal with it.... )
Thankfully I had already removed Mietze's food bowl, so he didn't get rewarded for his hard work.

But I'm not sure if I should be angry, frustrated, proud or amused with him.

Or all of the above.

(And it's back to the drawing-board about trying to figure out how to let Mietze eat her own food...)

here we go...

Ear mites?

  • Nov. 10th, 2009 at 12:37 AM
Miz Onyx has ear mites. I have seen them crawling in there, she shakes her head, ears are red, brown wax, etc. The works.

What should I ask the vet for? I don't want him to charge me for another "check up" visit, like he did when he checked her infection from her spaying. Literally checked the cut and charged me another $40. What meds do they provide? Can anybody suggest some meds?

Thanks!

Can you tell me about breeders?

  • Nov. 9th, 2009 at 11:18 PM
No specifics. Just, if you've ever bought from a breeder, how did you know they were legit? I mean, anyone can put something on a website, how do you know that cattery in particular was worth visiting?

I'm interested in, one day in the far future, adopting from a cattery. For the breed I want, I've found about 4 in Chicago, the closest location, and it's about four hours away from where I live currently. Problem would be, I wouldn't know which to choose from. Certainly hit and miss can't be the way to go, and I'm sure I wouldn't want to visit each individual one.

Do they tell you about the personality of the kitten you want? Or do you choose by coloring and figure out the personality on the day of? How exactly did you know your kitten was the one for you?

I've got this idea in my head that I want a generic ragdoll. I mean, I don't mind personality variation, but cats can be antisocial if they want to be, and it'd be really disappointing to reserve and adopt the black sheep of the litter, the one that decides she doesn't like to interact with people as much as her siblings.

So that's where I'm confused. I have no cats but for legalities, I'll post an old picture of my siblings' kitten, Zoe.



This was her at less than four months...I'm sure she's bigger now. I haven't seen her in a while. She was a stray, and she's probably my reason to want a ragdoll. I love Zoe, but she's aloof, like most former-ferals turn out to be. Sure, she snuggles up for a nap and loves a hug every once in a while, but she certainly doesn't need the attention, and hates being scooped up by the kids.
