    I don’t think I could get Nutini to eat vegetables πŸ™‚ but I have decided to try her on Raw food again.. I noticed the last time she was eating raw regularly she was a lot happier apparently the gnawing motion that only raw meat can deliver buts pressure on two glands located near the jaw and this glad releases endorphins in a cat brain… Tip there for all you owners with nervous kitties πŸ™‚ I don’t think she’s been eating all that much as she used to eat out of the same bowl with buttons so I’ve had to do the “pretend I’m eating to” thing..

    And look who decided to join me under the covers this morning!

    She’s still here fast asleep and snoring & purring up a storm πŸ˜†

    I got some vitamin treats for her yesterday I figure I need something to encourage her to stay active and not just hide under the bed..

    Love the title for the Cafe today and the pictures are great especially the cabbage babies and cult kitty.
    LOL, Nutini knows where to go for snuggling, but really she is there to make Meowmy a bit happier.
    Just popping in briefly as I couldn’t resist a title like eat your vegetables day. I love vegetables and thought we could add our favourite vege recipes.

    Oh, that short for her age kitty is so beautiful. Good idea for recipes MS. I love veggies. I’ll have to think about a favorite recipe though….don’t tend to use recipes for them.

    Didn’t know that about the endorphins and chewing, buttons. But it makes sense. My crew get chunks of meat for dinner…good for all of them but if it helps with nerves, then Leo probably benefits most. He tends to be the most high strung. Nutini is a cute little snuggle buddy.

    Better go give the kitties breakfast. Emily has that look about her that says, “Don’t make me bite you to get you out of bed.”

    Hi everyone! G’night MS – nice to see the old cafe closing.
    I got a breakaway flea and tic collar on Mac. It’s a start!

    Hi Joan,
    Dare I say that next will come a collar tag with Mac’s name on it, his own bed and an extra set of keys to your house? LOL πŸ˜‰

    LOL at Mac’s set of keys.

    I’ve mentioned before that I love the new tiger exhibit at the jacksonville zoo. It is just brilliant…I could hang put there all day. Son told me this morning that one of his classmates at zoo camp is the daughter of the man who designed the new tiger exhibit. I told him to tell her that her daddy is my hero. ;).

    Taking Leo in a little while to get his pre-dental blood work done. I know it is routine so that they can make sure the cat is in good health before putting them under anesthesia. But I think I’m gonna ask the vet some more questions about it. Like, “what would you find that would make you decide to not do the dental…and would you really let a cat live with a painful mouth rather than risk the anesthesia?” Just wondering, since it looks like we are going to have an expensive time with Leo and Eko’s mouths. If there is blood work every time, that adds a significant expense.

    Hi KJ – yes, I was thinking a name tag would be nice…
    ECB, how cool about the tiger exhibit! If I ever get to J-ville, I’m taking you up on your offer to take me to the zoo. πŸ™‚
    I don’t think Jiggs ever had dental work. Shaddo had to have a tooth pulled once and I fretted all day. He also had emergency surgery once after getting in a fight. Both cats had heart murmurs which they told me can create complications with anesthesia.

    Best of luck at the vets with Leo ECB πŸ™‚ sending soothing vibes so it’s stress free..

    Joan sounds like Mac has one foot in the door ;)…

    ***waiting to read buttons’ news****

    I’d love to take you to the zoo, Joan!

    Got a better understanding of why they do the blood work. And some patients do decline it. It sounds like if they are having frequent dentals declining it would be a reasonable option.

    Thanks for the calming vibes, buttons. Even though he hates the vet, he did great! Son and I watched kittens for adoption playing in their cage in the lobby. So fun…and I correctly guessed their genders based on their play styles. :).
