I have her bowl of kibble on the lowest level, which sits right on the floor. I approached her slowly, and she let me give her scritches and some petting.

Where she was, she could see me in the living room, but she was partly concealed by being under the dining room table. Little steps... |

I think you did just fine. You are a wonderful man to have given that
rotten woman money for her poor cat which may or not even have been her cat. Seems that Lorelei did not have a good life before she met you. People say you shouldnt move her food dish around but have you tried treats. My cat is mad for them. also catnip.

I bought some catnip for Lorelei, but she didn't react to it at all. What kind of treats do you give your cat? I asked Lorelei's previous human about what treats Lorelei likes, but she didn't answer me I hate to go out and buy treats, at random. When I adopted Kenzie, her humans made SURE that I knew that the ONLY treat she really liked was potato chips. I would NEVER have found that out on my own, since I never buy potato for myself. I used to buy the little 'lunch' sized bags of potato chips for Kenzie. She knew the sound the package made when I opened it, and would come running. How I miss Kenzie It would be nice to find something that Lorelei likes as much.

I hope you are not missing Kenzie so much you aren't letting Lorelei into
your heart. That would be a shame for both of you. ingold1234[at]yahoo[dot]com (Gandalf) wrote in message ... On Mon, 6 Dec 2010 14:52:53 -0800 (PST), snuffy wrote: I think you did just fine.

What kind of treats do you give your cat? Meowmie gives all sorts of wunnerful ones! My favorite, warmed pig blood. WOW! You jus bury your head in it and start sucking then youz gets to lick it off the doggies muzzles where dey are too dumb to reach it offen their furry bits. Dez just smart enough to help you clean up so youz got dis big likky-fest. Iz the one time, I don't mind fixin my doo back up. Raw shrimpie heads! I'z eat all the best parts den drops them on the doggiez. Dey are efficient at garbage disposal of da rest. Mabel Anne, our new doggiez got pork blood tonite. She's acting like a little puppy which is kinda funny for Aunte Mabel. She's sumfing like 70 or 80 in hoomin years. Wez got lots of turkey bird while it lasted. Now wez got dried duck and chicken jerkey bits. I gets bits of dem too even if dey come from doggie bags. Dey *taste* just as good to me! Daisy-chan the Magnificent! |
