Cat TV

Early November, 2008.

Celestial Angel and Chuck enjoyed lots of Cat TV, from every window possible at Eastside Cats.
Chucky enjoying the wide window ledge.
Angel has her eye on something outside!
A rare image of Angel and Chuck sitting together, watching the leaves fall.

 Our first cats, and oh, we had no clue, and learned the hard way often.

An example:

Chucky started to scoot his rear-end on the floor.

I went up to the library to read every cat-owner book on the shelf, and decided that he had impacted anal glands.

At the veterinarian's office, I proudly offered my diagnosis.

The doc looked at me, and said, "He too fat; he cannot lick his butt."

Oh the embarrassment!!!
😳
We switched from dry food to canned, and both cats lost weight gradually, and all scooting stopped. 

Our starter cats whom we loved dearly, the poor dears.

Fatter than Patty!

Today's calendar page
This cat from my calendar is much bigger than Patty O'Malley!  Looks like a relative of his, though...



I should send this photo to the kind people at All About Animals, who worked on Patty and Sweetie last week!  They thought he was a whale, but the photo cat is HUGE!

Patty OH!


Pounds o' Patty
Patty O'Malley has gotten quite large in a short time.  I swear, I am feeding the outside cats the same amounts as ever, but Patty is either pushing the other's off their bowls, or he's snacking somewhere else as well as eating my food.
3 and a half cats!
As you can see by the photo above, he's much bigger than Sammy or Mama Mia.  He grew large last year, in the winter, but I think he's moving into sumo wrestler range now.    

I hate to withhold food, especially when it's cold, however Pounds O' Patty needs a break!  I've cut back on the amount of kibble, since that's so full of carbs.   Wonder how I can get him exercising...?
