Title: Hey every one :-)...my first cat!
Post by: Robbo on March 25, 2009, 16:07:02 PM

hey everyone, this is my first cat, only had her 1 week, she is called sophie and is about 6 months old :-) so is sooo lovely and cuddles n licks me on the nights and love belly rubs lol

i will post some picks next week as she has a cone on her head at the min bless :-( she had a reaction to the mirco chip injection so she is on steroids and cream.....i hope she gets better soon tho! :-(

like i say she is my first cat, done all my research etc but if anyone has any health tips or general info u think i could have missed all is welcome.

currently feeds on Applaws kitten, wet and dry each day....she loves its natural yummyness! lol bowl of fresh water always there to.....ermm....loads of toys, scratch post, litter tray, its own bed and blanket as its 'her room' lol ( my spare room lol) hmmmm think thats about it.......

She is absolutely gorgeous. :Luv: I have a ginger boy, never had a ginger cat before him but I love 'em to bits now!  ;D I just read your other post. Hope you get the problem sorted soon. They are a worry arn't they! :welcome:

She is gorgeous  :Luv2: - I hate seeing them in those horrible collars  :(

Sure you know that Applaws wet is only complementary so mustn't be fed as the only food - I know you said she has the dry as well which is fine.

Is Sophie any better Robbo?

Title: Re: Hey every one :-)...my first cat!
Post by: Robbo on March 27, 2009, 16:27:56 PM

It seems to be healing, not as fast as I wish do may need more steroids.......

Applaws told me the wet kitten food is complete, but not the adult wet, ingrediennts are quite diff, but she gets dry and wet every day....Thanks tho :-)
