Confirmed... we're crazy

Well, how do you hold a cat so you can trim their nails? How can the vet do it? It think they threaten them! Finally, we wrapped him in a towel, put out one paw and tried to clip. We got one clipped, found that one was actually pulled off. By the time we were trying to clip a third one, he had the other front paw free. We finally decided that it might be worth a trip to the vet instead of us fighting with him. I wish he would sharpen his nails like Callie does, that would keep them trimmed, although she has destroyed a small part of our house since that is what she is using. I’ll have to include pictures!

Hanging by a thread

OK, time for another trip to the vet. Buddy’s nails are just toooooooo long. Twice now, he has gotten himself caught on the couch and was there crying and Callie is hissing and oh my… time for a clipping. Maybe we’ll get some clippers? Am I crazy???

Must be Spring

OK, I think I’m going to start waking the cats up every time I see them sleeping during the day. It appears that night time is the time to run around chasing each other, playing hide and seek, hissing and fighting. Unfortunately, IT’S SUPPOSE TO BE MY TIME TO SLEEP!!! They just don’t see it that way. Now Callie has a new game. She hides from Buddy and he spend 30 minutes searching for her meowing at the top of his voice! He can be a very lonely cat at times. He finds her and then the race part beings which usually includes running OVER me one after the other. Guess that just makes the chase more of an adventure… for them anyway. Though I must say that there is nothing like an adrenaline rush from being wakened from a sound sleep by two cats using you as a race track. Takes your breath away… right!
