I am a -year-old male flame point himalayan cat.
I'm very vocal and friendly once I get to know you.
I don't have any sharp prey teeth anymore, they were all removed due to abscesses that developed at the root of each tooth that hurt me to the point I stopped eating.
I still eat hard food because the sharp teeth are only for catching and tearing prey, my chewing teeth are still in good condition!
I'm a very picky eater and will typically only eat my specific brand of dry food and wet food.
I have almost no interest in human foods, but sometimes I'll chew on the ocassional house plant.
I am not declawed and will scratch lightly and gently nibble when playing.
I need to be fed twice a day. At each feeding, I need 2 heaping tablespoons of wet food. If I finish it immediately you can give me another tablespoon. I also need my dry food topped up to graze on throughout the day. My diet should be mostly wet food so I may not end up eating much dry food.
I love my wetfood and will usually come running (and meowing!) when the packet is taken out of the fridge to feed me. And I will certainly gobble it down as fast as I can.
Here is what my food amounts look like in my dish at each feeding.
Wet food is in the fridge door, you can use the same tablespoon for scooping each day -- just rinse it off and leave it on the counter. There are unopened packs near my dry food in case the one in the fridge runs out.
Dry food is located in a tupperware container on the bottom shelf of the stand beside my litter box.
My water cup should be emptied and refilled using the kitchen tap. Please make sure it's cold!
There is also a blue cup on the coffee table that I drink from which should be refilled all the way up when I am fed.
I need my litter box cleaned at each feeding. I usually use it 3 times a day total.
The litter box is under the stairs, and the scoop is on the left side of it.
After cleaning the litterbox, bags can be tied and put in the green bin under the kitchen sink and we will empty it when we're back.
I'm an older kitty and I have chronic kidney disease. My kidney's are only operating at 25% capacity. Because of this, my diet should be primarily wet food to make it easier on my body to absorb fluid. It also means that I take a daily blood pressure medication each morning. The medication is a topical cream that goes on my inner ear flap. the
The medication applicator is stored beside the air fryer on the counter. Please make sure to put it back there and keep it upright.
The medication only needs to be applied to one ear in the morning only, and the ear it is applied to should be alternated. See the whiteboard on the fridge for a schedule of which ear the medication should be applied to.
Take a paper towel, dampen it with water, and lightly rub the inside of my ear flap to clean it.
Remove the lid of the medication applicator, keep it veritical, and turn the base counterclockwise one "click" so some cream comes out (there's an arrow on the bottom showing the direction to turn it).
Gently rub the tip with the cream on my inner flap.
Use the same paper towel to wipe any excess cream off the tip of the applicator.
Put the lid back on the applicator and return it upright to where it was. Please make sure it is not in direct sunlight.
