I don’t normally talk much about Thailing–she has a different relationship with me than I have with Mystic.
Mom says she was like that with Maggie and Toby, my doggy soul mates that came before me, so I’m not to feel too bad. Actually, I don’t. I’d just as soon she’d play with me, but that’s not to be, I guess.
Mom says Thailing has some sickies. Her thyroid doesn’t work right and she gets some medicine stuff stuck inside her ear twice a day. When I see the glove come on, I know it’s going to happen! Thailing doesn’t mind anymore, but when we went to the vet the other day, we found out she has even more sickies. Something called IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome). Maybe that’s why she only weighs 7 pounds. Me? I’m a svelte 41 pounds.
Mom says we have to fatten Thailing up a bit, so we went to the kitty store and got some new kitty food. And they both LOVE it! But that’s not all–she gets some yummy smelling chicken that Mom cooks.
She gobbles it down! Me, being the best dog ever, watch from afar–wishin’ I had some of it.But I get to watch Mom fix it. After poaching a chicken breast, Mom cuts it up in little pieces and freezes it in an ice-cube tray. Then all she has to do is take out one of the sections for a special meal. Um, she did sneak me a little piece. 🙂
On top of all this yummy new food, Thailing gets a little chew pill (prednisone) that she likes (so far) to help with her IBS problems. We hope she gets to feeling better soon, but not before the chicken is all gone!
We are not sure we have ever met Thailing. What a beautiful kitty. We are so super sorry for her health problems and hope the new medicine and nommy chicken has her feeling better in no time. Purrs and hugs, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Jo

Thailing is beautiful – is she a Birman? I had a Birman kitty many years ago. Sorry to hear about her health problems, I hope the special meals and the prednisone help!!

We aren’t sure what she is–actually Thailing and Mystic are litter-mates. We adopted them when they were only 8-weeks old, almost 12 years ago.
We had another cat with IBS who was on prednisone for over 10 years. She lived with us for 17 years.

Your kitty sister is so beautiful, Sage. We’re sorry to hear that she has sickies but what a good mom you all have taking such good care of her like that. We hope she’s feeling better in no time (well, maybe in ‘long-enough-to-eat-all-that-chicken time’. 😉
And you are wonderfully well-behaved. Even around chicken.

That doesn’t sound like a fair deal for you! I have one cat that is like a dog and loves us, the other one is total cat and doesn’t like dogs.

Mom’s been using http://www.picmonkey.com/ for the watermark. We even went “Pro” for a small fee so we can add fun things to photos. There are several other free online photo editing programs, like Fotor, that’ll also do the same thing.
