I'm thankful she is so small because her "move" in the morning when she wants me to get up and feed her is to leap up from the floor and land right on my head! If my last cat (18 lbs. compared to Claire at 7.5 lbs.) had of done the same thing she would have killed me!!!
Claire says:
I think I just got lucky with the personality on this one! She really seems quite content and happy with just the two of us in the apartment. If I sensed that she was lonely and blue I would get her a buddy, but she seems fine with the present arrangement. I actually think that seeing as she has been the queen bee around here for almost a decade she might get her nose out of joint if an interloper arrived on the scene...LOL!
Claire says:
And I know how the animal hospital staffs try to put the best possible spin on your pets behavior, so when I hear "she got a little bit angry with me" I just assume she went full bore psycho and tried to kill everybody in the room...LOL!
Claire says:
Apparently all bets were off yesterday when she took umbrage at the intensity of the nail bed cleaning, and wasn't at all shy about letting them know she took exception to what was happening...LOL!
Claire says:
Claire did not manage to get in this box...BUT IT WASN'T FOR A LACK OF TRYING! She got both front paws in before realizing it wasn't going to happen. I had to set her straight..."Sorry Toots, you may be dainty, but you ain't THAT dainty"!
Claire says:
Yup, the vet said that alcohol is the main transporting agent for the scent and that I should let it evaporate before Pissy McWetwet goes in her carrier.
Claire says:
No...little "Pee Pee Rodriguez" wet the carrier again. She only made it as far as the elevator this time. At the Vet's they gave me a special spray that's supposed to relieve anxiety, and some big absorbent pads to line the carrier with to try during her next outing.
