My cat can tell the time!
« on: September 24, 2013, 03:03:19 pm »
Tabitha is now on thyroid tablets for life, and luckily they are working very well. They have even reversed the slight damage to her kidney function caused by her over active thyroid. I decided to give Tabs her tablet around 6pm as its about that time that Allen has his daily medication.
Now, whatever she is doing, wherever she is, whether she is outside or upstairs, on the dot of 6,  she comes and finds me and waits for me to give her the tablet. Once she has it, off she goes again. Last night, she was outside when I heard her at the door. I said to Allen " Tabby's way too early tonight" However, I looked at the clock, and lo and behold it was 6!!!

Sweet  -   What a good cat.  Perhaps she knows they are doing her good  :thinking:

Smart cat! Our Cassius was the same - came and sat on the kitchen table every morning, hd his pill and a wee drop cream  ::) before heading off again.

Hope Felix will be equally good when he starts on HIS medication for high blood pressure.

My cat would probably vanish behind the bookcase at 2 minutes to 6  :D

Awww, what a great cat.  Mine would be like Fleecewife's and do a disappearing act as the time approached

Yep, I have a hellish time getting worm tablets into mine. One even managed to get it out the back of his throat after the vet had shoved it down there - and proudly spat it on the table. Even disguised in liver pate they can manage to lick the pate off and leave a clean tablet in the bowl. Telling the time is the least of my problems!

My boy Brendon was not like other cats.  Some people said he was stupid, but he wasn't stupid, it was just that his brain worked a different way.

Once I hid a pill in one of the pieces of meat in Brendon's bowl.  The rest of his life, he always left one piece of meat.  (It was the piece with the pill in it, stoopid.  ::))

Don't listen to the money men - they know the price of everything and the value of nothing

Live in a cohousing community with small farm for our own use.  Dairy cows (rearing their own calves for beef), pigs, sheep for meat and fleece, ducks and hens for eggs, veg and fruit growing
