Kats & Kits: May 2009

Devizes has a new mayor Coun John Leighton and we are pleased to hear he is a cat lover, he and his wife care for twelve rescue cats at their home in Devizes. Coun Leighton visited Kats&Kats and we are delighted that he has chosen us as one of his charities for his mayoral year along with the Dorothy House Hospice and the Wiltshire Air Ambulance.

Our best wishes to him for a successful year and we hope he will find time to visit us again.

This is Marilyn with some of our senior residents, most of them hale and hearty , some getting a little frail, but all of them cared for and in the best condition possible. Regular checks are a must, bad teeth , thyroid irregularities, infections are just some of the problems seen in older cats that nowadays can be treated relatively easily by the vet. Left untreated your elderly cat who has been your companion and friend for many years can become seriously ill and suffer unnecessarily.

We have many cats in their teens and some in their twenties all still enjoying life. I share my house with Thomas, sixteen years old, on one tablet a day to control a chronic mouth condition and still hunting and I am ashamed to say fighting over his territory. Without this treatment he would be a very unhappy cat unable to eat and in poor condition.

Please take care of your old cat, make sure he is able to get into the house, hours sitting in the cold will do him no good, give him a nice warm bed some where quiet and put off getting that puppy for a while.
