Time out for a kitty!

Slip the piller to the back of the throat, push the ejector, and she's done! I hold my cat's muzzle closed until I'm sure it's swallowed, sometimes rubbing the throat to help.

Right alyscat, we had problems once when we opted to buy worming paste which was supposed to be mixed into their food. One sniff and they backed off. As cats hate being dirty, we rubbed it into the fur on their front legs and they had no choice but to lick it off. Messy, but worked well.

I just checked out the cost of Ipakitine and for a 10kg cat, it would cost $2.85 per day. On a retirement pension, that's a cost we can't afford for too long.

How much do you have to pay for 150g? in poland it costs about $17 and this amount will last for quite long...

$46.33 plus $4.90 postage. And thank you for asking burgundia, because when I went back and double checked my figures, I found I'd made an error somehow. The daily cost would come to $1.37 - which is a lot better than what I'd first worked out.

Wonder if I can get it from Poland? $17 sounds a hell of a lot better than $46.33 and I don't think the postage would make up the difference.

Can't believe that it's taken me this long to finally get a picture of my little panther bear.. She is so black and shinny its hard to get a decent photo of her.

So many cat-people here...

[Luminous]

This is Manny, sweet, loving angel. He has been known to play fetch with me.

[Luminous]

And this is Hector. He's the psychic one. He sees things that I don't.

My cat just goes nuts for no reason until one time, I just simply said "leave my cat alone" and he jumped on my lap. It must have worked because he stopped running all over my apartment for no reason. Poor bugger. I think he sees/hears things that I can't and it's good because I can't hear much at all.

If it ever comes down to it, he's coming with me. No way I'm leaving this friend behind.

[Luminous]

Yep. Not going anywhere without them.
