Always Worried About Brendel

Have been bragging on how well Brendel is doing lately. She loves her chicken and turkey with gravy baby food. All of a sudden, for the past two days she stopped eating. Has not touched her food. She is drinking water and ate a few treats. But no food. She also seems very restless. Normally she sleeps all day long. She is up and down a lot now, in my lap, from one bed to another. I have to wonder if she is in pain. I am watching her every move. I get so worried. I hope these are just off days for her. And maybe today will be the day she eats again.

I hope that sweet Brendel finds her appetite and eats today, or at the very least whispers into your ear that she loves you, as I know that she does.

Thanks! I hope she is just off right now. So sweet you said that. She gets so close to me and looks right into my eyes, like she is trying to talk to me.

@CarolDM Pets can feel that special connection if it is there, and I know that it is there with you.

With animals, I wonder if weather changes affect them, too. I know that Kobe went in streaks, when he's eat good. Then, he'd refuse a treat or go bury it. They get under the weather, but they can't vocalize it to a human.

@CarolDM I was just guessing, why she was a little anxious.

I think the weather does cause a reaction to their moods.

She's getting older and has a progressive disise. You're right to be worried about her. You can try switching up her food, some cats simply get bored.

Wonder if she just fancies something different? Cats can be very picky, as all we moggie owners know!

Probably a little change in the weather perhaps.

@CarolDM Mr Hissy, one of the garden gang, wasn't there for lunch, but a couple of hours later, with the sun, there he was looking forward to a late meal!

Cats often behave like that. They stop eating for a few days. As for her restlessness I think you can consult a vet.

it is so hard when our pets, no our friends age. They aren't able to do the things they could before. But, we love them just as much. Brendel knows you are there for her!

I hope so, it is so hard to see our pets not be well. I worry about Brie who is 15 all the time. I will say a little prayer that she gets her appetite back.
