08Apr26: a morning with the cat…

“There aren’t any Greenies here, Doug.”
Dang cat! Yes there are!
I booped his head – lightly – to add emphasis. No kitties were harmed making this post.
Andy isn’t buying it.
Oh, well. Andy trots off to check out that box. Allez-oop!
Good leap there, Andrew!
He settles in…
…and is “hidden” from me. He’s still a little upset with me, I  think.
A new item on his agenda.
Whish….
Yes, he watched me toss out two over-flowing bowls full of “empty” Royal Canin dry food that he never ate because the bowls were “empty.” The kibble was all over the floor, too, so I cleaned that mess up, then put a supposed “one serving” of the stuff  recommended in one bowl to see if he’d eat it all. (Am I joking??)
He ate some, then left for the north bathroom window.
Looks like a beautiful day outside, if still a bit chilly.
Yes, I know, Andy. It’s “empty.”
What? What? What? Andy actually ate some kibble.
Well, he watches me on the toilet!
Time for a drink. Make mine a margarita, blended lime.
Back to the box.
Briefly.
Oh! The table! It’s a lot more fun when it has stuff all over it.
Andy gets it now: I’m following him.
A touch up…
…then a move to a sunnier spot to continue.

It’s almost time to heat the oven to start my lunch.

Andy’s day was long.
Andy likes to touch me. Unfortunately, it’s often with claws extended just enough I feel them.

=(^+^)=

“You didn’t fill my Easter basket!!!”

Nope.

  4. Yes, a busy morning in the Doug and Andy household… and a nice morning it is!! Hope that a little tweaking of food dishes will encourage more food intake for Andy… i know we do worry when we sense any change in their eating habits… especially when walking away and ‘snubbing’ food… Best wishes to you both, Doug, for a nice rest of the day… a good day ahead for you!

  5. Oh yeah, we’re familiar with that touch with slight claw extension too. I’ve read that sometimes cats only eat the topmost food in a bowl because when they get further down, the bowl sides touch their whiskers and over stimulate them. The articles term it “whisker stress”. I’ve noticed we have one small food bowl that they really don’t like to eat from at all, and if they do, it’s just the top layer. Cute Andy pics!
