Heh… Melbcat used to be a friendly but highly independent cat and lived half wild before coming to me. Now she lives inside, sleeps in the bed and is a lovebug lap cat.
I’m spoiling her with how many treats I give. I need to wash the new treat tower puzzle, put some in and see if she can pull them out. I also added a discounted snuffle mat to the latest food order to see if she can find hidden treats. Try to add more enrichment to indoors. (Her bloods had improved but the kidney disease is showing up again, so I’m spoiling my elderly girl rotten.)
I am still fretting about the budget like always but have been trying to fix a bunch of niggling quality of life issues lately
hehehe misha was half wild living outdoors before coming to us. Now she screams at me if I leave the door open and a breeze gets in.
She remembers. She doesn’t want to go back!
Melbcat still wants to adventure but I have mostly stockholmed her with food, love and drugs
Mish'll occasionally go for an outdoor roll on the concrete, but she's definitely preferring life as an indoor cat in her old age
