Still life with cat

slystilllife

Sylvester has been having a kidney problem. The vet thinks it’s kidney stones, so she put him on special diet. The other cats like it; Sylvester does not. Leah thought he might like a canned food, so she got the canned version of his special food. When Leah opens a can, the other cats stand around staring up at the countertop; they are in love. Sylvester does not particularly like it.

When Leah tries to feed the cats, she has to try to get Sylvester to eat his special diet while keeping the other cats away, and at the same time, she has to keep Sylvester away from the other cats’ food while trying to convince the other cats that their food is really great. It’s a struggle.

And soon we will have to worry about moving four cats to a new house.

  1. Although it’s more expensive, sometimes the only practicable solution is to put all the cats on the special food.

    Here’s hoping he gets better.

  2. Scott — Thanks. I may be able to convince Leah to resume Friday Felines. We keep taking pictures, so we might as well use them.

    Ridger — We are considering that. With three other cats, it will cost quite a bit, but there isn’t much else we can do, short of a strict feeding timetable with a deadline for the cats to finish (no leaving food out for casual munching). Leah doesn’t want to do restrict their feeding that much.
