I like to imagine that he’s only opening the door because he thinks you’re in danger and he wants to make sure that you’re safe

Aleta will only eat her wet food after it's dried out. She'll go layer by layer for a couple hours, using her paw to pull out the dryish chunks so she can eat them delicately off her fingers like an elegant lady, until I start assuming she will die from Old Meat and take it away.

Jasper. Babyman. I know we found you on the ground outside and you're probably only around a year or two old, but we feed you the recommended amount of food for your size and you are actually gaining weight in the form of muscle mass. You don't have worms, and I know you don't have worms because Drontal is the cat worming equivalent of a howitzer. You do not nead to start screaming for food 3.5 hours on the dot before we feed you. And then 2.5 hours. And then 1 hour. And then continuously for the last 30 minutes before food time. You get fed at 8a and 5:30p. Just because your humans are chunguses doesn't mean you get to be one too. Also, stop chewing cords for attention when you are told no. You only go after cords when we tell you no. Literally no other time. I know it gets us up and moving to stop you, which is what you want, you little dickfuck. And if you gave a poo poo about any boundaries we set, we wouldn't have to keep the spray bottle on standby. We also would not have to keep ALL the trash in the house in the utility room or various cabinets without fear that you'll knock it over and get into it. We'd also be able to have a trash bag in the truck without having to wake up every morning to trash strewn all over the cab the ONE time we forget to drop it in a nearby dumpster. Also, speaking of the truck: You have no CDL; how do you expect to drive? You do not belong in the driver's seat. I own amphibians and you are still the most food-motivated creature I have ever met. You would sell our souls for half a chicken wing. You've wormed your way under the couch after a bug, and got stuck. Little fucko.

MoMo, in the last 2 years you have developed such severe allergies that you are losing all your fur to dermatitis! The vets have put you on three separate treatments, there isn’t a single parasite anywhere on or inside your chubby body, and I am losing sleep trying to figure out how I can make you happy and healthy again. You are only 9 and I buy you the best food and medicine and vet care money can buy, but we just don’t know what’s wrong with you buddy... please let this next treatment work you fat sack of poo poo please, I just want you to be soft and happy again

My orange cat Ayla has it and she's on a liquid med Atopica that's helped. She sometimes gets a little worse (she's got a patch on her ear right now) but it's better than her grooming herself bald/raw on her tummy and limbs and kicking her ears bloody. Sadly it'll be a maintenance drug but she's at least down to 4x a week from 7.

 Cosmo, why the gently caress have you suddenly decided potty time is a group activity? If I leave the door open, Cosmo will jump in the tub and poop or pee with me now! What? I just cleaned your box, you’re literally 10 years old and I’ve had you the entire time, why develop new pooping behaviors now?

Hopefully it'll help! The cat will need a few tests periodically to ensure they're tolerating and sadly it's a very bitter medicine so they won't like it, but its done wonders for Ayla.

Dear Two Stupid Cats, I know there's a new tiny human in the house sucking up all the attention but that's no excuse to start destroying things as soon as you see my hands are occupied. I promise you'll still get food and pets but the tiny human is even more helpless than you so she gets a little extra attention. Quit your bellyaching. Also, kill the drat bugs yourselves and stop whining for me to deal with it.

My little lad Wren is about a year old now. Only feels like yesterday we got him. I've spent the last few days curled up on the couch with nerve pain and he's been helpfully looking after me by laying on/with me..but not before stomping me in the nuts while looking for the best position. Thanks, little buddy. Love you too.

Aleta, 1. Stop sitting in front of the anthurium and screaming at it. You cannot eat that one because you will get chemical burns in your mouth. Yelling at it will not change my mind about letting you chomp on it. 2. On that note, you ate an ENTIRE cat grass in one sitting. 3. I know that I hurt your feelings by not complimenting your cool new trick, and it IS very clever, but stop tricking Luna into jumping into the closet and then slamming the door on her! You know she's too stupid to push on the door! Plant murderer:

Momo managed to cover his poo in the litter box today! The reason this is a helldump and not a praise is that he's two whole years old and this is the first time ever that he's actually managed to do that instead of just flailing his dumb paws at the wall, floor, and radiator outside of the box until the other cat gets annoyed and covers it for him (or I hear the flailing and scoop it.)

I got woken up at 4 AM and have decided to adopt Aleta's lifestyle in order to understand how one can have so much energy at 4 AM. 1. Stare at the wall and then yell at it a few times, just so it knows who the alpha is. 2. Lose a staring contest and rub my face on some grass for consolation. 3. Have an absolutely mingin' butthole stench. 4. Lie down behind a rolling chair doing cute little otter things with my hands. 5. Put a thumbtack in my mouth. 6. Yell at the wall again. It's been a busy morning so far! I am definitely awake, though. edited to add new exciting activities: 7. Find a piece of broken glass and try to eat it and cry when it's taken away. 8. Lie on the floor grabbing at Mommy's hand with my fat little frog paws and then mouthing that delicious Momhand while somehow gently bunny-kicking it. Also I need very hard pats on my face or I will headbutt you FOR REAL like a mountain goat until you do it hard enough. YES, AT THE SAME TIME. 9. Be unable to get into a box full of stuff and when Mommy won't clear the box out for you even though you stood up on your hind legs and yelled most beautifully, sit on the floor and angrily bite your own tail.

I got two cats so you could play with each other when I'm busy, not so that you could scream at me in stereo when you want to play and I'm busy. Also the only game you want to play at the moment is: I stand in the bedroom and wave the ribbon on a stick, while you, momo, roll on the floor trying to sit on it and you, macready, crab walk at high speed up and down the hallway paying absolutely no attention to me, momo, or the ribbon on a stick. It is a stupid game, I do not understand the rules, and I feel like you're both missing the point of the ribbon on a stick. If this is what faux hunting behaviour means to you, then you should both count your lucky stars you're pet cats. I'm still going to play it with you (when I'm not busy ) but I want you both to know how ridiculous you are.
