Joyce, I sure hope you can figure out what's going on with your kitty.
Yes, the cheap food isn't good for neutered males, have heard that from MANY vets. We just suck it up and buy the prescription food from the vet. It's $50 for an 8 pound bag. Solved the problems and kitty is fine.
But, right now, he's acting out of sorts. He's sleeping ON TOP of me and also sleeping in Courtney's room on the bed. He usually doesn't do that and if he does, it's only for a few hours. He'll stay in there all day and I have to go in there, take him out and bring him down stairs for a bit. After an hour or so, he'll go back up to her room and sleep more.
So, I guess a trip to the vet tomorrow (today is Monday for me) will be in order just to get him checked out.
I'm thinking we may have to change his food once again to something with more vitamins (?) or something to get him moving a bit more. He'll be 11 in October, so he's really not all that old.
Pets.....what ya gonna do, huh?
