Ignatius The Great begins the fourth year of His Reign today!


Last year we had a health scare which costs thousands. When we brought Zacchary home, he brought a kennel-cough like thing home.
But even after clearing that up, Iggy had digestive issues, running in terror with diarreah.
At one point, the Vet said, "They HATE this..I had better get the Tech to help: I have to give him a rectal exam."
Poor Iggy was howling and roaring like a lion..And he is usually such a sweet cat!
So I said to him, "Son, This is why I always tell you to stay out of prison!"
The Vet and the tech broke up in helpless laughter. The laughter shocked Iggy so much he shut up.

AFTER all this, and the $$$, we solved the issue. Iggy was secretly breaking into, and gorging himself on the bag of Iam's Hairball food we had for the longhair cats! It contained BEET PULP and mineral oil, and was a kind of Nuclear Grade Laxative in the amounts he was stealing.

He now weighs fifteen pounds, and we continue to grow closer as friends. My wife is convinced Iggy considers me his pet. He STARES at me and makes me do things. Some time ago, I had said, " I wish I could talk to Iggy, just for an hour, so we could understand each other better."
But that was silly. We communicate perfectly, as long as I remeber who is the boss.

The only tension we have is for regular shots and checkups. "You AIN'T BRINGING ME TO THAT PREVERT AGAIN, ARE YOU???"

This new beginning has been four years long, now. But with an animal friend, it is ALWAYS a new beginning, isn't it? They have minds, they change and grow. They abandon some tricks and games, and make up new ones.

Well, then, if you want to see the rest of the (As my friends call it) "Sick overindulgence in a CAT", visit Ignatius The Great's Website.

I help him, as he has trouble with HTML. No thumbs, you know...... laugh.gif

Oh, this is wonderful!!! smile.gif I had so much fun looking at his website. He looks so handsome walking on his leash, and very proud! And the bow ties really do suit him. I had always wanted to dress up my Danny boy with a little red Santa hat at Christmas time, but he was very skittish about such things. Thanks for sharing Iggy's website. He is truly loved and such a special boy! smile.gif
