Sick kitty



After a month of smooth sailing, we hit our first hiccup with the kittens today. I came downstairs in the afternoon to discover that someone had been sick. It looks as if someone had gobbled down their food too quickly* ... which pointed to our resident greedy-guts, Shinobi. (When we took her to the vet last week, we discovered she weighed almost 20% more than Nin!) Anyhow, she's spent the rest of the afternoon curled up in a corner, on my lap, or on a chair, feeling very sorry for herself. Poor petal.

* Well, she either ate too quickly or has taken our comments about her being a bit porky to heart, and has become bulimic. Eek!

Enough cat stories, already.

Lucky you've got a greedy fat cat. I have a greedy dog that poisoned itself scavenging and cost £600 in vet bills. The be-hatch is fine now btw.

Poor kitty! Ours do that as well when he eats too fast, too much, but doesn't affect him too long after that.
