My boy would want the tray table

[missdiane]

Speaking of kitties, the boy is still limping on and off. This morning he hobbled in where I was having breakfast and it looked more obvious and I felt bad but after stretching, he was walking better so I'm guessing it was mostly stiffness. Poor old dude. I do have a couple of anti-fatigue mats arriving today that I'll put in front of places he favors jumping up on. I'll cover the mats with towels wrapped around the bottom or heavier throw rugs so he doesn't slide but so that there's a softer landing for the goofball. I'm also going to order some treats for kitty joint health.

Awww. Poor old man. So lucky to have someone like you!

It's awful to see our furkids in pain, isn't it? We'd do anything for them. Though I'm getting kind of tired of going "No!" when he wants to jump on the dining table when he can get pets on the lower couch just fine lol

yes, we WOULD do anything for them. They are lucky to have us just as we are lucky to have them.

Poor little guy! He obviously hasn't made the connection between jumping and hurting yet.
If it is arthritis, do you have one of those electric heating pad cat beds? I had one for my last cat who had arthritis and was often chilly just because he was old. He loved it, although he still slept on my pillow at night. I have the non-electric body heat reflecting mats that I put in Moon's bed in winter, but the electric one was warmer.

I do have some microwave heating pads that JuneBug loves so maybe I'll heat one up. I wonder if that's why he's been the one in the window seat in the afternoon that gets the sun? I wish that the assisi loops and pads weren't so godawful expensive since I know from my knockoff human version that they really do help
