Patty with several cats, have you found that they find the need to mark their turf so to speak?

Oh, I had major success with Zion last night! When he decided to come out he kept coming out and meowing to get his head rubbed. He's a forceful one. He pushes hard and wants his face and forehead rubbed. I didn't get a good night of sleep but I did make him a lot happier.

Glad to hear that you were able to catch him. I'm sure he will settle in well.

Not yet. He will not come out from under the bed unless I'm sleeping in the bedroom with him. I'm not really surprised because when he was a kitten, when he should have been friendly, he stayed behind the washer and dryer for two weeks. He has never been anything but a skittish kitty. At least he's alive and in my house in Colorado. That's about all I can say for him right now.

Thelma had her teeth cleaned today. As it happened, she needed no extractions, so I'm guessing she will recover quickly. The price she quoted included extractions, so maybe we'll spend a few $$ less than planned.
For the cat owners. The vet read recently that dry food tends to linger on the teeth and most cats who eat dry food nibble on it often. Wet food does not do this. This is contrary to previous thinking where dry food was thought to help keep plaque off of the teeth. So we will leave less dry food in her bowl and give her more opportunity to eat canned food.
Patricia, glad you were able to get Zion into his carrier as planned. Let us know how he does with his "buddies" in CO.
Edit: We did spend less than originally quoted as no extractions were needed. Thelma is celebrating National Pet Day with clean teeth. She seems fine, already ate some soft food. Now to get some antibiotics into her......starting tomorrow. Got the liquid for that, and 2 pills for pain.

This week my wife noticed his breathing is very laboured, so we are taking him into the vet tomorrow to see if anything is wrong with him. We are praying that he doesn't have any serious ailment, we rescued him 10 years ago during a road trip to the US and he has been the best cat ever.
