Hello Friends in Lantus Land,
It has been a while since I have been on the FDMB but I have been meaning to send an update to my online friends...Sienne and Gabby, Oh Bell, Julia and Bandit, Wendy and Tiggy , Carl, Polly and Bob, and Ann and Maggie.
As you probably remember, Our dear Oreo passed away a year ago and I can't tell you how much the love and support you gave me meant. As time passed, and we searched around and found two beautiful kitten brothers and adopted them last May. And yesterday it was their first year birthday! Our vet recommended getting male two kittens since we have a female 13 year old cat named Debbie. She was very lonely. We thought our vet was nuts suggesting kittens instead of an older cat. I mean wouldn't it be better getting another older cat since our cat was older? Well our vet really knew best. She felt that two kittens were a good choice so they would play with each other and not bug Debbie so much. Also, being kittens, Debbie seemed to understand and protect them. Lastly our vet felt it was better to get males since she felt it would not create future territorial issues. Debbie sleeps with them, grooms them and they have become friends. Her loneliness seems to have disappeared. Our lives are quite busy and we have to give them lots of playtime, but it is worth it.
Yesterday our neighbor told us their cat was just diagnosed with diabetes. So we will be helping them out. I guess what goes around comes around. But we really recommended FDMB as the best place to go for great information and support. I wish you all the best. From Nico and Max's mom! And here is the picture below.
