Rocky will be 3 in September. He sleeps maybe 14-16 hours a day or so? He likes to follow us around during the day like a puppy. He's on guard most of the night too, but sleeps more at night during the winter, cuddling up to us in bed to stay warm.
. That makes sense about diet. I feed him Eukanaba indoor hairball formula from the pet store. It's expensive but concentrated so I don't think it costs much more than the commercial brands at the grocery store. He only eats 1/2 cup a day and maintains his 8 lbs well with that. He doesn't get any canned food. Those are really expensive in comparison if you looked at total cost over a few months, which is how long the big bag lasts.

Somebody needs to start a new thread in this forum so I don't keep coming to the forums index and seeing: "Cats & Sheep"!

Waves back at Doody!
. We found a new IAMs cat food kibble at WalMart this summer, to use if we ran out of Eukanuba. We didn't quite, so I haven't opened it yet. But it has acetyl-l-carnitine added! This is a mitochondrial enhancer, muscle promoter and mental energy giver for older humans! It also has more Vit A and something else which escapes me. (it is packed up in the cars now). I wonder if it will "perk" up drowsy cats? I do know our youngest doesn't sleep so much. She is 9. Tippy is 15 and sleeps quite a bit. (less up here with the excitement the woods has to offer). Some sleeping may just be boredom?

Just when I finally buy Eukanaba, Mrs. D buys Iams. LOL!
My cats like the Eukanaba. I also bought for Bruna, but she doesn't want anything to do with it, she is so darned finicky! A lady at a local animal feed store here told me to watch out because the cats can get fat on Eukanaba? Well, Chew boy is a lost cause, he's just huge, I mean huge, anyway.

IAMs kibble is very similar to Eukanuba...they make both. Sometimes we switch back and forth. I couldn't find Eukanuba in the Soo (Sault St. Marie Mich). So I had to use one of the IAMs. It has corn as the 3rd ingredient, so I don't know how Sheba will react to it. The Eukanuba has corn further down (or perhaps they are changing them all?)

. Yes, it works! First view might be disjointed but if it is, wait for the next one. If you're a cat lover..... this is soooo cute!
