So today I had to get innovative. Kiki was asleep on the bed -- see the quilt? Playing with words, as I always do, I wanted to have her eating outta my hand. That's it! But I had to take four pictures with my cellphone camera before I got one that wasn't a blur. Worse, now she thinks her "treats" should come to her! Would this "mouse" fool you?

Let me tell you about one surprising outcome of today's "experiment" of getting Kiki to eat out of my hand. I usually have a difficult time getting pills down her throat, especially the cut-in-half little yellow allergy pill prescribed by her vet. This afternoon I put the tiny thing under a pile of dry nuggets in the palm of my hand, and Kiki snarfed it down with the treats. It was as though she thought, "Gotta take advantage of this while it lasts." She was in such a hurry, however, that she barely paused when she apparently tasted something "different." Yes, a slight pause, but then the other nuggets covered up the taste nicely, and down it went. She hasn't wheezed since then. Yay, me!
Yay is right!
No, I don't believe that mouse would fool me. LOL
It's hard enough finding a photo of Fiona every week; I can see why you're reconsidering, although I've loved the photos (I don't always comment -- I've been pretty big on lurking, lately). Older cats don't do a whole heck of a lot, that's for sure. We're really enjoying the infusion of energy Fiona's added to our household.
