Lindsay, he's burst it a few times now. Once years ago but this will be the third time this year I think? The vet suggested no wet food to make his poops harder which helps to clear the glands when he goes. But he never has wet food anyway. Maybe I need to change his dry food to something with more fibre, I dunno.
Oh no, thanks NP now I also have that line in my head because you clarified the song!
You'll need to discuss it with the vet NP and hopefully find something that can prevent it happening again. They might tell you to feed him expensive food though. Crookshanks is already on expensive food but I might ask if I can put him onto the less expensive stuff.
I put it down on paper and then the ghost does not ache so much.
Don't try to calm the storm, calm yourself, the storm will pass.
I've just done some food research and think I'll swap him back on to the light version and what he has now. I stopped using it after he lost some weight but his weight has gone up again (but he's still not overweight) and apparently that can make it more likely for the sacs to burst. And the light food has a lot more fibre in than the normal stuff. I don't want to be getting special food from the vets =/
Apparently it's not very common in cats!
It can be stressful Beckie, but the benefits outweigh the stressful times =)
What brand do you use NP? I've been using Hills because they are tailored to certain things but they are expensive. Now Crookshanks isn't overweight any more the vet said to use the senior Hills but keep a note of his weight over time and phone and let them know what his weight is.
If you could have a pet, Beckie, what would it be?

Hmmm. I'm not sure!
I'm more of a dog person than a cat person but i don't think i have enough time or space for a dog. Cats are more self sufficient but i would worry about a cat stinking up the house with a litter tray! My house is very small
I'm fine! Totally fine. I don't know why it's coming out all loud and squeaky, 'cause really, I'm fine!
Well done for getting all your daily stuff done. Will you just be relaxing and maybe watching some TV or something now?
I think it's meant to be a tiny bit less hot here, but I'm worried about all of you in England with the further extreme heat. I'm not planning on leaving the house tomorrow but I'll have to on Tuesday.

Thanks!
Need to take recycling and kitchen bin out but i can do that whenever.
I hope it's not too bad in Scotland lindsay! Stay hydrated and in the shade!
I'll be ok tomorrow because of the air con. The walk there won't be great though! I do have a new skirt for work and cotton cycling shorts to go under it so that will probably help.
Tuesday i have to run some errands so that's not going to be fun! Glow beatz is cancelled and she's doing fitness pilates instead because it's too dangerous to do glow beatz.

I get James Wellbeloved, Lindsay. Geordi should technically be on senior food I think? He's turning 10 in December.
Guinea pigs are very cute little pets! I like their squeaking too and when you cuddle them they make a little trembly sort of purr noise. Plus they're really funny when they get the zoomies and run around together.
