Re: To Cassandra and Kisa
I hope so. Because my poor little Billi Bi has the same problem. Do you have a good holistic vet who will work with your traditional vet? Because s/he would be the person to get advice from re: Bandit's "little problem." Poor Billi Bi's "little problem" just immediately morphed into a big, expensive problem, poor guy. And with the crummy ingredients those Rx companies use, that stuff should be less than half the price. Jeez, what a ripoff! "Consciousness is Causal and Physicality is its Manifestation."

Re: To Cassandra and Kisa
Oh, I feel so glad that you got over that horrendous hump last week with Kisa. At least when she stays under the bed you always know where she is! And since you two sleep there it is the place where she feels the safest. I had a wonderful cat named Boots~~quite a fellow~~and he ALWAYS slept under our heads under the bed. He would stay on the bed with us until it was lights out and then he'd go right under the bed to "his bed." Sometimes we could hear him snoring faintly.
