Yogurt-eatin' Kitty!

Here's our Jasmine enjoying a greek yogurt. She never used to be a food kitty, but since she's gotten ill we've begun to indulge her a lot more. Shrimp, yogurt ... who knows what's next?

She is the cutest little kitty angel in the whole world. And I'm not just saying that because I'm her mommy.

I know you are sincere because I heard you re-watching the video half a dozen times! ;-)

Jasmine is having fun! My Zooey gets food already over her face every time she eats.

I'm sorry about Jasmine. Have you thought about feeding her all natural food, sort of the way you're trying to feed yourself now? You know, giving her hormone free fish or chicken, brown rice, vegetables, cottage cheese, whatever she'll eat? It can't hurt, and it might make her feel better or either feel wonderfully spoiled.

I don't know if the vets always know for sure. Zooey was diagnosed with serious heart problem (a very enlarged heart) and has been on medication since 1999. One vet told me she'd live a few months, another said a few months, a third said, "Well, let's try some new medicine." Here she is 8 years later. :shrugs: Who knows?

She does get natural food scraps a lot, but we feel it is important to also feed her the prescription dry food for kidney cats. It's not on "the list" of foods, and we check often.

We just try to take it one cay at a time.

Oh yeah. I totally agree with feeding her diet suited to her illness.

I imagine it's hard, but I'm so glad you are enjoying your time with her and loving her as much as you can. (((hugs)))

lol - cute kitty. :) She's got all dirty now though. Probably spent a bit washing herself I'm sure.

She did, but we used a wet towel first. It's so fun!

That's hilarious! And I love how she looks up at the camera with this, "And what are *you* looking at?" expression! Very dignified, in spite of the yogurt covering her furry face.

Yes, that describes the look, exactly. Cats are good at dignity in the midst of indignity -- they wash their asses in public every day.

What a beautiful girl! Thanks for sharing the video.

You are welcome. I always enjoy pictures of your cats and your daughter as well -- I don't comment to you enough to say so.
