    Cat Food Recall Recalled Cat Food Updates

    Thanks for this information. It will be important to keep an eye on this. My cats like Fancy Feast by Purina. My understanding about Fancy Feast is that it has never been subject to a recall. I don’t like these huge conglomerates, generally, and worry about product quality.

    Mayer

    Mayer and Joe Joe the other day. My guys are indoor only, and I have many windows with nice areas for them to sit. Plus the glass on doors. When I open all the wooden blinds up in my home, I feel like I am literally outside. Perhaps also for my guys.

    Here is a brief one of Mayer talking. I did try to upload one here from my phone as a vid file. It did not allow it. I will see if I can figure out how upload it.

    Mayer

    Here is a picture of Mayer. He will be two years old in September. When I sent the picture to his foster, who had Mayer for eight months before I adopted him, she remarked how mature he has gotten. He is a very sweet guy who keeps us busy with his energy level.

    Have i lost my bond

    Hang in there. I remember being at a point of feeling things would not work, and just as I was feeling that, things changed and Mayer become very comfortable and more relaxed. I had my iPad in his room and used my SiriusXM app, and played the Frank Sinatra Channel continuously for him. Frank’s...

    Have i lost my bond

    I understand what you’re going through. I had to dig down, so to speak, for more patience because my Mayer was a very nervous cat when I brought him home.

I did much of what you did. Then one evening, I sat in my chair and opened the gate. Mayer came out tentatively...
