Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / March 2005My Sweet Baby
You know, I talk about how bad Bandit is, and it's true, she's bad... *BUT*... For the last two weeks I've been wrapping her up in a towel and shoving awful tasting liquids into her mouth every 12 hours. I've been opening her mouth and throwing bitter pills down her throat every 8 hours. I've been holding her down and spraying water on an extremely painful burn every 6 hours and then rubbing stinging paste into the burn afterwards. I've been tying a ridiculous bright blue collar around her neck that makes her trip over her own feet. I keep taking her back to the TED who did these awful things to her! And as *soon* as I put her down on my bed after any of those things she waddles over to me, gives me head butts and starts purring. It's very, *VERY* humbling! -- Hugs, CatNipped http://www.PossiblePlaces.com/CatNipped/ > You know, I talk about how bad Bandit is, and it's true, she's bad... > *BUT*...

Ping protests his meds, but then turned around last night and curled up on the sofa with me while I watched Cold Case Files. He even hugged my arm as he wheezed, sneezed and snored. I know we should be keeping him isolated, but he is *so* much more social than Tennessee, and really hated being in the bathroom away from everyone else, and let us know about it every time we went in there, crying as loud (or even louder) than he did when he was in our basement. --?

Can you switch them to give each some time out with you, or is there chance of contamination of items which Tennessee might come into contact with?

I think they *both* got it from our vet, since they both went in to get checked (Tennessee had blood drawn, Ping had his gums checked) at about the same time, and TED was himself battling it. I'm feeling kinda funny myself this morning, but I don't know if it's from not sleeping good, or if now *I'm* coming down with it :( --?

Awww... what a good baby! She knows you're doing these things because you love her!  SignatureVictor M.

My Bandit huddles under heavy furniture when I've thrust an antibiotic capsule down his throat but will soon come out to pheromone-mark my hand and have a good cuddle. Every time. Bless them all, the long & the short & the tall. (Hmmm, wonder if there's a song in there somewhere?)

Pan has been on twice a day meds for the last year, and then I brought a pregnant teen-ager home to live with him AND then her obstreporous child. I step on him and break his poor little leg, then make him spend 6 weeks in a splint and eight weeks in bandages. And yet, he still loves me. =o) Just keep telling Bandit you do love her and you ARE sorry her medical care is so uncomfortable.

Pilling time is hard for our Buddha--she is a very willful and confident cat, and she lets us know what she does not like. I try to catch her in the middle of eating because it seems to go down easier that way. But she hears the pills in the bottle and waddles away fast, hiding under things if I can't get her in time. Then her ears go back and she gets a belligerant look in her eyes. I toss the pill to the back of her throat and gently close her mouth and rub her throat while she grunts these little "ohhhhh whyyy meeeeee, whyyyyyy meeeee" grunts. But as soon as I begin rubbing the back of her neck with my other hand she purrs. And as soon as I let her go all is forgiven. Sweet babies they are. Bandit knows you are doing all that because you love her. Hugs for you, CN, and lots of healing purrs for Bandit, SignaturePolonca & Soncek > You know, I talk about how bad Bandit is, and it's true, she's bad... > *BUT*...
