PET CLEAN-UP
Cleaning up after your pet is a tough job but someone has
to do it, right? Here are two suggestions to make things a
little easier:
1) Fur Balls - To cut down on your cat spitting up fur balls
onto your floor or carpet, try feeding him/her sardines in
oil once a month. They say it helps smooth the passageways,
allowing the hair a speedy exit, thus preventing the fur
balls from forming.

2) The next time you buy a 24 pack of canned pop in the flat
case, remove the cans carefully not to damage the plastic
wrap and the cardboard tray. This makes a great disposable
bathroom for your cat. Especially if you take them travel-
ing with you.
"It always gives me a shiver when I see a cat seeing what I can't see."
--Eleanor Farjeon
Is your geriatric cat vocalizing much more frequently? She could be trying to tell you something. Increased vocalization, increased appetite, and increased activity (especially at night), can be signs of a treatable condition called hyperthyroidism. See your veterinarian for a geriatric blood panel for your senior family member.
