Default Progress report on Kitty Farmcat


She was diagnosed with CRF a few weeks ago and TED said the best chance
would be if she ate this particular diet all the time.
She loved it at first, but now she doesn't.
I was so paranoid about her not eating anything else that I fed her in the
spare bedroom so she could not eat Boyfie's food. It was a nightmare. If I
shut her in the bedroom she could not get to her litterbox in the bathroom.
If I left the door open Boyfie would sneak upstairs and eat her kidney diet.
Plus she decided she didn't like to be isolated to feed and refused to eat
except in the kitchen near Boyfie which is what she is used to.

I've had to compromise. Boyfie is eating more chicken, turkey and white fish
cat food than he ever has in his life to eat alongside Kitty. I sneak a
pouch of kidney diet in for her as often as I can.
She seems quite well, considering. She's stopped peeing everywhere and uses
her litterbox in the bathroom. Her appetite is still good so I guess we are
on track for the moment.
Talking about the litterbox in the bathroom, I think it was Joyce who said
that her cat peed in her litterbox at the side of her toilet at the same
time that she was sitting on it herself - not the litterbox, the toilet...
Kitty did this too, today! I got up first thing in the morning and she got
up when she heard me and we both had full bladders. Synchronisation took
place.
LOL!
