Trooper Tuesday

Hi everyone, Cousin Trooper here.   Last week the Furkids Mom came over to visit with me and give me a Mani/Pedi.  I was really happy to see her and she spent some time playing and snuggling with me and, of course, taking LOADS of pictures.

 Hey there Furkids Mom....good to see you....

What Mani/Pedi?  I think I'll hide back here...

Now here's where I need some advice from my pals.  As you can see, I am still losing my furs. You can see it here on my side....

and you can REALLY see it on my back legs.

I've been to two different VETS and nobody has come up with an answer.  First they thought I was allergic to fleas or something in the house.  My new Mom changed my flea meds but that didn't help.
The second VET thought I might be having a urinary problem and I did.  That's all cleared up now but I'm still losing my furs.  We tried different diets, nothing helped.  Bloodwork looks good.  They tried a cortisone shot...no help.  Has anyone had a problem like this?  Other than that my fur is shiny, I eat well, my weight is stable, I play and have fun.  My new Mom does travel a lot and it might be separation anxiety.  The Furkids Mom suggested Feliway diffusers and we're going to try that.

I hope you think I still look handsome...

Thanks for any and all advice.

Love,
Cousin Trooper

***Sniffie Update!***
Mom took Sniffie to the V-E-T this morning. He didn't like that bump at all (although he did say it didn't look like it was in the place where that nasty vaccine sarcoma would be). He stole some of Sniffie's furs and blood for a test...nobody told her she was supposed to study for a test!! If the test results come back okay, Sniffie is scheduled to have the bump removed on Thursday morning. They will send it out to be tested. The V-E-T said that it was small and that was good. Please keep her in your prayers. Mom is worried sick about the surgery and what the bump could be.

Hi folks! It's Cousin Trooper here.

Look what I found yesterday..........Mom's PASSPORT! This can't mean anything good.

Sniffie update: Mom talked to our favorite Vet Tech, Cheryl, and she told Mom she will get Sniffie in to be checked sometime today. Please keep the purrs and prayers going. Mom is super worried. Mom apologizes for not visiting our pals too much yesterday but she wants to let you all know how much she appreciates your good thoughts and your comforting comments.

Purring for Neala and Toes and Tummy Tuesday with Trooper

Please take some time to pray and purr for Neala, a blogging pal of ours. Baby Neala is having surgery today to take care of a birth defect. To visit her blog Gotta Have Faith and send purrs and words of support, click the picture below.....



Cousin Trooper has a cute belly and some pawsome white toes. He's a real snuggle boy when Mom goes to visit him.

Mom even caught a picture of her own toes as a bonus!!

Auntie El is away again and Mom is taking care of Cousin Trooper. He's going to be giving some ManCatly advice this week.

ManCats should feel secure in their ManCatlyness. Posing next to flowery handbags shows off your "softer" side which ladycats really like!



Hey....any salmon in here??

Isn't Cousin Trooper a big LONG kitty? Look at those Mancatly paws too!
Yeah....I'm handsome....adore me...pet me...give me treats!!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Ellie says: "What's this pilgrim lady doing on the table?"
Sniffie says this doesn't smell like Turkey....

Ellie wonders about THIS turkey... Turkey? Did somebody say Turkey??????

Tamir says to Ellie..."BLEH...this isn't real turkey!"

Where is it....I know the real turkey is here somewhere......

"Oh Tamir...I don't know what happened to the yummy turkey. Mom and Dad went away for Thanksgiving and we're not going to get any turkey."

Wait! Mom left something good with the Pet Sitter!!


Meanwhile, at Cousin Troopers..... Where did this Turkey come from???I've got my eye on you Mr Turkey....

Turkey???? What Turkey? I never saw a Turkey.......

Happy Thanksgiving to all our pals in the Cat Blogosphere and to their Beans too!!
