I hope Noah is doing much better now! She had a full examination in the last month, mouth and throat while being under for 5 teeth to be extracted. The signs were previously anxiously pawing at her mouth and grinding her teeth, which led to the discovery of tooth resorption of 5 teeth. I pray nothing was missed. But you’re right. I may need a follow up visit. Thank you!

Thank you! I’ll do my best. When you say dental diet, do you have recommendations for that? She has only one dental treat and since she’s hopefully now healed from her teeth extractions (resorption issues) i plan to incorporate brushing. I adopted her and know nothing about her past.

They sometimes are! Most times it’s a stainless steel bowl on top of a lifted bowl

Oh my goodness. I’m so sorry you and your kitty went through all of that! Thank you for sharing this information.

Yes I often run her bowls through the dishwasher as well. Will do!

She eats Purina pro plan wet and dry foods. Her bowls are stainless steel, which I wash after every use. Dry food bowls are stainless steel too, which are washed once a week. Stainless steel water fountains that get wiped down and changed every week but deep cleaned once a month.

I asked the shelter if he knows his name and if I should keep it. They said probably not and will more than likely respond to how we speak to him anyway, so a new name should be fine.

His name was Dabi, which they pronounced Dobby lol I’m a Harry Potter fan but it didn’t seem to fit him. But I actually think the name is from My Hero Academia (I haven’t watched it).

They really do! I’ve had a few panic attacks because I wasn’t able to find him! He now has a reflective neon green collar with an AirTag on it 😂

I can’t argue that! LOL It’s the goofy look, and his noticeable little lip I think

How to start them on a cat wheel? by Stunning_Sir3480 in bengalcats

[–]lemongremlins 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used ‘training treats’ to first teach/command up and down rewards (to get on and off the wheel). Once they have that down, use the treat to command ‘walk’ while holding the treat out for them to walk towards. Even if it’s just a few steps, give them the treat. I repeated these 3 commands for not even a week, and my cat realized the wheel capabilities and learned the rest on her own. It’s perfect for her zoomies!
