Two things looking up

[trinityvixen]

I put Wally alone in the kitty room with water and wet food. As I went to leave this morning, I heard what sounded like the familiar ding-ding-dings of a kitty ID tag smacking against a plate. Dare I hope that he's going to eat the wet food finally? darkling1 had put Oscar away this morning because Wally seemed like he might be interested in the food. (If he didn't pounce on it, Oscar would have, hence his being put away.) He didn't, so I gave it to him manually again but not all of it. He kept sorta reinvestigating and sniffing really carefully, so that's why I gave it another go. We'll see how he does.

Of course, he would finally break down and eat it right as we're going to the vet ready to tear hair out. We'll still take the more appetizing stuff. If it's not as corrective as the s/d food we have, we could try mixing the two prescription foods. They also have prescription dry food, which would be a load off my mind if I have to ever leave them without wet food for a bit.

I have decided to only ever adopt demonstrably piggy kitties in the future. I would never have this problem with my Oscar. He's been perfectly amenable to the change in dry food and regularly licks Wally's plate of prescription food clean. I love Wally dearly, but no more kitty gourmands, I swear.

The IMDB is now streaming movies! I was so bored yesterday, I set up Weird Science to watch, but I got distracted by reruns of The Daily Show and The Colbert Report. Still! Movies! Ones I've even heard of!

My new plan is to watch 365 new movies in one year. The more places I can stream them from, the easier it will be to accomplish this. Stupid Netflix and their not streaming to Macs!!! ::shakes fists::

That was me who locked Oscar away! Wally would sniff the plate carefully, since I gave him a layer of prescription food under a layer of the other stuff. Then he would look at the empty bowl of dry food, sniff the wet food again, and look at me. He did drink some water though.

I'm sorry, I got your handwriting confused! I blame the fact that I was up so early. (For me.)

I will amend the statement. But I'm glad you let me know. I think we might crack him yet!
