vitamin wars

[anotheranon]

In addition to acclimating the cats to their diminished diet (Kisia is crawling in my lap as I type this because she's so hungry, and we're determined to keep quantity/timing on OUR schedule), we're trying to get them accustomed to a vitamin supplement.

This has been easy for Spice - she's not noticing the food crunch as much because she's very happy to take whatever crushed pill/paste supplement she's offered if it's mixed in canned cat food. Kisia - not so much. She's holding out for dry lamb and rice, dammit and refuses to be fobbed off with ANYTHING less. No, not even people tuna from a can. The addition of a vitamin is an additional insult.

Tonight I put some of the tuna-flavored paste (we're experimenting with a bunch of different vitamins) on her foot and she did lick it off - after running around the living room trying to shake it off. I suspect the presentation left something to be desired :P

The book IS awesome ... if you can't get hold of it locally, I'll always be happy to pop my copy into the mail. :-)

Perhaps a book exchange when I get back?

Oh yes please. I've hung onto your booklists because there were titles that interested me, but I've been too swamped to even get to my own books, let alone anybody else's. But now that things are easing off a little ... ;-)
