Poor, Sick Frankie


Here is a post from January of 2016 for Throwback Thursday. I’m not sure why I thought Frankie was sick back then because he has been sneezing for over eight years.

Our cat Frankie has a bad cold and has been sneezing for several days now. I feel bad for him but he is eating and I see no reason to take him to the vet just yet, but I do hope he gets better soon.

Chia Cat Grass Planter Review


Here is a post for Throwback Thursday from January 2016 about cat grass. I have learned that cat grass is a wonderful thing to have for cats but it is fleeting. It lasts only a short time before it dies and then you have to start over.

For Christmas, the cats’ Aunt Felice got them a Chia Cat Grass Planter. A great present because they all like grass and Chris loves it. Whenever Chris gets outside, the first thing he does is eat some grass.

It comes with everything you need: a bowl with a cat on it, potting soil, seeds and instructions.

I followed the instructions and put most of the “growing mix” in the bowl, leaving two tablespoons out for later.

I then added the grass seeds.

Next I covered the seeds with the remaining dirt. By then I had the attention of all the cats.

The instructions said to cover it loosely with plastic wrap so I did that and put it on the counter for a few days. I then put a little water in it and placed it outside where it could get some sun without someone eating it.

Checkmate


Chris doesn’t always win. Sometimes I am smarter than he is. When he started knocking over his food bowl, I started keeping the end bowl mostly empty but then he would go to a lot of trouble to knock over all the bowls, which seemed illogical because he started doing it because he was too lazy to stand up.

I decided to buy another pair of bowls on a wooden stand so now he has to eat standing up again.

Check and mate!
