My girl is ~20. Or at the very least, 20. She’s been doing well on her thyroid meds and solensia shot. So well in fact, she caught this toy mouse the other day and was screaming bloody murder to everyone. She wanted every one to know she’s still got it.

Then she promptly went to the very top of the cat tree where she mocked the 18 year old cat for not being able to get up there. (He’s next to get solensia shots). My little babies are getting old 😭😭 but they’re still so sweet.

Edit to add, it’s 6am. Just after I posted this she has found her mouse again and is carrying it around and screaming about it. 😂

    Hooray for Tigger! Y’know even when Everything Is Awful™ , it’s good to think they’ve developed a drug that lets older cats enjoy things. I like that about us. Yes, all that other stuff BUT ALSO we made older cats feel pain-free and happy to play again.
