Pet Food Cookbook - cat Questions

Question #1:

What do you think of the name Buffy?

I'm a HUGE buffy the vampire slayer fan, and I have to say that I really love the name. If I had it my way, it would be my future girls name. My boyfriend is against it (although he loves the T.V series as well) So I compromised and named my cat after her Instead :)

What do you think of the name Buffy?
Actually I would love to be named Buffy!

Question #2:

Kiwis moving to Australia?

I'm looking to move to Australia from New Zealand with my son, dog and two cats. I've only ever been to Brisbane and that would 14-odd years ago so I don't really know anything about the living situations. I'd like to live in Queensland, somewhere out of the big cities but still only 2-3 hours away. Warwick maybe? Stanthorpe? Toowoomba? Gympie?

What are they like? Are they dog friendly? Good primary schools? Does the temperature ever get colder, sleet and/or snow? Office job opportunities?


Any info would be a great help!!

Thanks heaps
Jena :o)

Question #3:

My cat is losing weight but won't stop eating?

Any thoughts.. My cat has lost weight fast and eats like there is no tomorrow.. She begs for food at the dinner table... If I leave bread on the counter she will get up there, rip through the bag and eat it. She has tore open dog treats to try to get to them. She has dry food available at all times (always has). I feed her 2 table spoons of wet food a day. I have another cat that is fine.

I have taken her to the vet. They did blood work and said that her blood work came back fine, just elevated white blood cells. I then took in a urine sample, and he treated her for a mild urinary track infection for two weeks. Then said he wanted her to come back in after three weeks to get re-weighed. Next week I take her to get weighed.. but I am just looking for some thoughts so that I may prepare myself.. She is not putting on weight and her constant need to eat is getting worse. I wouldn't say she has lost anymore weight in the last 3 weeks but she is not gaining either..

Any thoughts? Thanks

Question #4:

Do you think I need counseling?

My name's Brianna, and I'm 16 years old. As a child, I'd visit my grandmother often, and her kitchen floor was covered with tiles. Whenever I'd cross her kitchen, I had to do it in 7 tiles exactly; or seven steps. If I even placed my foot in the wrong position within one of the tiles, I'd have to turn around and start over. I couldn't NOT perform this ritual without growing anxious. It'd be on my mind all day, outweighing any other thoughts. I also got this notion that if I didn't complete my task, my whole family would turn on me and die. It started with these tiles, you see. It grew into something more, like only being able to wipe myself with 7 sheets of toilet paper, and using a sentence with 7 words only at 7pm and 7am. Of course there were times that I couldn't do such things, and though the guilt of failing would eat away at me, there wasn't anything I could do about it. This went on for years. I grew tired of always having to do these things. I gradually willed myself to stop, or block out, my OCD. It started showing up in other things, however. Like at school, my handwriting had to be perfect; at least according to my standards. Specifically my e's, y's, g's and f's had to be a certain way, and if they weren't, I'd erase them and rewrite them until they were right. The paper I wrote on had to be a certain texture, and if it wasn't, I felt like crawling out of my skin when I wrote on it. I had to write with mechanical pencils; again, anything else made me anxious. I couldn't write with any other led other than .7mm though. My book bag had to be in a certain order, from largest books in the back, to the smallest books in the front. The subjects were ordered as well, and when this order was broken, I'd stop in my tracks to rearrange it again. If I wasn't allowed to, for some pathetic reason, my thoughts became excited with being able to rearrange them as soon as I was let to. I couldn't concentrate on my assignments when this happened. I've had to wear a certain brand of shoes, and if not, I'd refuse to go out of the house at any costs. My socks would have to feel right in my shoes too, and if they didn't, I'd quickly change them. I'm still this way; it's not because I'm a spoiled brat, but because I feel that everyone's looking at my shoes, and laughing at how ugly they look. At how ridiculous I look. Agh. It's just easier to wear attractive shoes. I also look at other people's shoes, and stereotype them. And yes, I'm aware of the fact that this is wrong. I like being alone. It's weird. I like being left all alone though. People are incredibly uninteresting to me, and just annoying. I have but one friend, and at that we hardly converse. I'm not trying to justify being anti-social in the least, because I do get that it's unhealthy. I'm more than not-a-people-person though, and I'm fine with it. I love it, in fact. I've contemplated self inflicting pain upon myself many times before, but just couldn't. I don't get how that'd help me... and I've never enjoyed pain. Besides, my tolerance for it is incredibly low. I'm not an animal person, but at times I wish I were. For instance, I'll get this urge to get a kitten. We'll get the cat, and I'll play with it, and feed it, take care of it... then one morning, I'll wake up, look at the cat, and get this awkward feeling. It's really strong though. So, I give the cat to my grandmother or someone better to take care of it; to routinely love it. Now, whenever I get that urge to get an animal, I block it out, for the animal's sake. I can't go to the bathroom without locking it, even if I'm home alone. And at someone's house, if there's not a lock on the bathroom door, I wont use it. I can't sit in a car without having my seatbelt on, even if I'm just waiting for someone to get out of the store. Fonts. Oh dear. They seem to be my new obsession. I can't type in a font that I find repulsive to look at; like Lucida Console. There are certain fonts I'd literally give my virginity to if they were human; Arial (11px), Century Gothic, Georgia, Candara and Microsoft Jheng Hei. Even numbers also tend to make me really uncomfortable (2,4,6, ect). Cliche and corny conversation disgust me. Hearing the refrigerator door close makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside, along with hearing heels on the hardwood floor. Talking on the phone frightens me, for some odd reason. There have also been times, at random, when this feeling of overwhelming reality brushes over me. It's strange, how real I feel; how vulnerable I feel, and it scares me. Fortunately, this feeling is rare. It comes maybe a few times a year, it and it lasts not but 3 seconds. I've thought about killing myself before, but I've never really considered it. I'm too cowardly to take my life. Rainy days put a smile on my face, while a sunny one makes me want to crawl up and die. Unfortunately, I live in a state where sunny days are galore. Some days are better than others. I wouldn't say my moods differ to an exceptional degr

Question #8:

What should you do immediately when your cat has kittens?

my cat is going to have kittens within a few weeks, and i was wondering... when a human baby is born, it usually gets a bath immediately, what happens when kittens get born? do i quickly give them a bath? like one in a sink with appropriate shampoo... or skip the shampoo and just rinse them underwater then towel dry? do newborn kittens come out with nasty stuff on them, right? what should i do?

Question #9:

Have we REALLY come to this?

Let alone feeding, AND *abusing* small animals just as mice, and rats, we now feed BUNNIES to snakes? The mice were just wrong, the rats made the situation worse, and now BUNNIES? I see the snakes are bigger, but COME ON. I am just INFURIATED! We call this feeding them correctly? It's ABUSE!

Here's why it's abuse: Do you feed puppies to a larger animal? Cats? Ferrets? Your human child? OF COURSE YOU DON'T! So why do we do this to innocent animals?

I swear people buy the snakes because they think it's fun to watch the small animals being fed to the snake be terrorized. I just DON'T get it. I own 16 rescued feeder mice, 3 rescued feeder rats, and 3 bunnies - Each one is named, and taken care of. They're the sweetest, cleanest, happiest things you could ever own.

So, you know, tell me the reason we truly do this abuse. And we call what Michael Vick did abuse (I do, but this is as well!)? THIS is ABUSE! KILLING DOMESTICATED ANIMALS FOR FOOD IS NOT RIGHT! AND WE CALL *THEM* ANIMALS? WE'RE ANIMALS, AND NOT ONE OF THE SMARTEST CREATURES LIKE DOLPHINS! WE ARE TRULY THE DUMBEST!
It IS abuse not to feed your snake, although if it's not in the wild, we CAN control it and give them something else. If it's domestic, it's not right.

The Question is...WHO OWNS THE FISH?!

There are five houses in five different colours starting from left to right. In each house lives a person of a different nationality.

The Swede keeps dogs as pets
The Dane drinks tea
The green house is on the left of the white house
The green house's owner drinks coffee
The person who smokes Pall Mall rears birds
The owner of the yellow house smokes Dunhill
The man living in the centre house drinks milk
The Norwegian lives in the first house
The person who smokes Marlboro lives next to the one who keeps cats
The person who keeps horses lives next to the person who smokes Dunhill
The person who smokes Winfield drinks beer
The German smokes Rothmans
The Norwegian lives next to the blue house
