    @user-cc1mq3qo6o 5 місяців тому +99

    The reason Larry may seem unfriendly is that the people involved don't understand how to "introduce" themselves to a cat. Cats are not dogs. For instance, the man who decided to stroke Larry did not let Larry sniff his hand first (introduction) and went for Larry's lower back towards his tail. A cat's tail is one of the most sensitive areas of their body. So Larry's behavior is predictable. Ditto the man from Japan walking up behind Larry - yes, cats are predators but they are also prey. So of course he reacted how he did. Crouching down to their level is another part of an "introduction ". 40+ years of having multiple cats.

It is not that those inside don't know that poor Larry is waiting, they know alright but why they keep him waiting is beyond me.

    🐱How cute. I'm a vet asst. Suggest switching up your cat food to Purina One. Cut back on dry cat food, over time, it can cause urinary blockage in male cats and kidney issues. Indoor formulas are lower in calories, When kitty gets older, take Larry in for a Senior Blood Panel. This checks overall health, while its still early. Keep your cat Indoors There are too many dangers outside. You'll have better longevity. Enjoy!

      Wonderful suggestions but do you really think that any of those good quality goods are likely to be bought for Larry ? I would pay for them myself if I knew Larry was eating them !
      As for vets ? Probably call Battersea Home for Dogs and Cats and donate £1 🙄 I sincerely hope they occasionally pay a visit but somehow doubt it.
      I agree, he should have, in my view, regular check-ups. Bet if they asked the public to donate they would.

    • @DChristina
      @DChristina Місяць тому

      My old gray Maine coon mix Socrates is at least 21, we adopted him from a shelter 14 yrs ago; they said he was 7-9 yrs old then. I feed him and another older rescue cat (who passed seat last week) very well, good healthy supplements, regular fresh wheat grass. I’ve never taken him to a vet / he’s never been sick. I’ve taken pets to vets in the past, but unless they’re sick, I’d rather not subject them to the stress and often unnecessary tests, not to mention exposure to sick pets in the waiting room. Then there’s the cost: it’s like $500 at least for anything. So I’m one who doesn’t believe it necessary to take your cat to the vet twice a year for check ups. With all due respect for the help you give, it strikes me as a bit of a racket.
