i think she is still disorientated from being sedated can anyone give advice about how to get her to settle down preferably onto something snuggly i dont want her to be sat on my cold tiled floor all night i put the heating on for little while but i cant afford to keep it on

If she's liking the floor, try putting an item of your clothing on it - it will smell of you and reassure her and will also keep her off the cold floor. They can be contrary, cats!

I wouldn't flea treat until her skin has healed.

Poor chiana, hope the work is soon finished outside  :hug:

Post by: Kally on April 08, 2010, 22:27:54 PM
well the work has finished for now cause they ripped the front fence out and im guessing they are replacing tomorrow or next week doesnt matter to me cause neve let the cats out the front mine are affraid of lots of humans(too right) so i dont let them out front plus the front is a car park and when anyone of them escapes out front they stay close and then cry to come back in

Poor Chiana is having a bit of a rough time of it, I don't think some cat are keen on ear drops, before we adopted Pepper he was having them but the fosterer said he wasn't keen  :hug:

turns out the fence they are putting in is actually railings so it now looks like im in prison and not only that they have take down the side fence to the back garden(the only thing seperating the cats and off lead dogs) so im not happy cause god knows when they are going to put the railings up there especailly since its taken them about a week to only slightly finish the front and also means anyone can look into the garden i know its a communal garden but it still felt safe that you could go out there looking like god knows what because you knew other people couldnt see in that well but also chiana is getting a lot better shes a lot more chilled and fighting the ear drops a little stronger
