Hi Celi & Serynne,
Sorry I'm so late in replying. Racci hit the yellow for her pmps but not too bad. I think she probably went up as a reaction to not having her numerous small meals during the day. That's a really high 7.5 relative to her +3 also. I'm just glad she didn't go too low while I was gone.
I wasn't able to get back until her +7 and she hadn't eaten a thing! I'm so upset! I had even left her some of her forbidden dry dm just in case and she didn't eat that either! She had a strange look when she saw us going out and me leaving her food, like she was really upset. I think she's just so lonely since we lost Calli and when I go out, she's very depressed. She's just so unused to being alone since she always had Calli & I'm usually home with her.
We've thought about getting another cat to keep her company but I don't know how she would take it. She might be extremely jealous since she's my baby and not want to share me or too timid & sickly to keep up with a younger cat with her neuropathy. DH really wants a kitten but that would really be too much for Racci, I think. I wouldn't get just one kitten anyway. It's not fair. I would get 2 so they would have playmates.
I should probably take my son & dil's cat. They have him all screwed up and don't want him but I really can't afford another problem cat. sigh. I'm seriously thinking of it tho. I feel so sorry for him. He has a host of problems that I don't know the extent of. He's a nice cat but he poops on the rugs and is losing his teeth so needs massive dental work. I don't know if I could straighten his problem with pooping out since he's at least 10, by taking care of the health problems but obviously that's the first step. They don't give him enough attention because he has to stay in one room because of the pooping. He and Racci know each other so it wouldn't be like they're strangers but that doesn't mean they wouldn't be jealous. He loves me and I worry also that he might be jealous of all the attention Racci needs to get. He's jealous of my grandson and also doesn't like him much so I don't know if he would be of Racci too or since she was here first he would accept that and just befriend her. I know both of them are lonely. I would never want to make Racci miserable though. Rambling on here. What do you think?
