Could they pour salt around the entrances just so I can se something real quick?

Of course not.

are you asking if cats suffer from the same delusions that plague some humans with a questionable grasp of reality?

yes .... yes they do .

Yes all animals have the privilege of second sight and seeing ghosts. Humans could sense them if they slowed down.

How fortunate 😽

I couldn't have said it better❣️

Yep, so true 💖🌟

Yes, this lady is so right for a cat like Lily. Both are ideal for this kind of relationship.

Very lucky kitty. This cat would have very little chance otherwise. 😢😊

Lily’s mom here, sending you lots of love ❤❤

Same here!! We really do got this! Stay chin-up kitty!

my schizophrenic friend loves seeing special needs animals being looked after, i just sent her this video and then i saw your comment

@@dancerrr610 oh thank you so much

@@onyxfay3800 I loved seeing this! I actually have 2 dogs that helps me. 1 is a samoyed that is literally my nurse. He has trained himself to be in total tune with what I need. Some things he does include making sure i get to bed on time, make sure i go outside when i have panic attacks he is glued to me and he kisses my tears away. My other dog is a special needs dog from the streets of romania, she has a huge scar from her eye down to her mouth so she kinda has half her face missing, it looks more "scary" than it is. When i first got her we went to a lot of specialists but in the end the only thing they could do was cosmetic and why go through that when all she needs is a lil wipe when she has eaten. Animals are just angels and we dont deserve them

Hi! Lily’s mom here! Thanks for sharing this and so glad Gaba is helping your kitty! Lily gets it as needed and it helps her as well ❤️

❤❤❤

Thank you both for providing a happy home to these kitties

I have a cat with hyperesthesia as well. We had no clue when we adopted her. She was between 1 and 2 when we brought her home. She’s probably around 5 now, and her episodes have become less frequent and less extreme. She still has them though. Usually we can tell one is about to start when we see her tailbone area start twitching. We hold her down and give her aggressive pets whenever we see this. It seems to calm her. I believe getting her on a healthy diet made a huge difference as well. It’s so sad seeing them freak out like that, but I’m glad she ended up in our home. I know a lot of people would just get rid of a cat with this condition. It takes patience and understanding. Always happy to hear of others who are taking care of their cats with this frustrating condition. They all deserve a chance!

@@moussegarbonzo8352 You are an amazing person. People don't understand these animals when something like this happens and when they see something they don't like, they return to the shelter. I am thankful you are patient and understanding to you're beautiful kitty.

I'm so happy for you!! :D

My late cat Bill had seizures. My ex-wife threw a muffin tin at the wall and scared her and she ran, slid into the wall and knocked herself out. Then the seizures started. So about once even two months, she would fall over, shake and eventually get up and seek revenge with whomever did this to her. Her blind sister Ted would hide, even before the seizure was over, as Mrs. Bill would usually suspect that Ted did it. Ted would open her favorite closet, enter, and then close the door. By middle age, Ted's eyes clouded with cataracts, which never seemed to bother her, as she would jump up on the furniture just like she did when she could see. She even managed to send a veterinarian to urgent care with a bite thru her finger nail. I warned her that Ted was a bad patient and she tried to treat her with an assistant.... My second bonded pair of kitties were Inky & Twiggy. Inky lost an eye to cancer but still was a terror. She would get excited if those tasty grey moths came inside and still was able to catch them with one eye. She would go ack ack ack if she saw them thru the window. She did the same when she saw the life flight helicopter at the hospital a block away.... Currently I just have Mrs. Jett who I adopted at 15, four years ago. My veterinarian requires me to sedate Mrs. Jett kitty before I bring her in because at 19 as she will savage them, piss or poop on them. She really hates that horrible woman sticks something in her butt... still

Toxoplasmosis is the reason that pregnant women should *never* clean cats' litter boxes.

@@rridderbusch518 yeah, that’s the one

@@rridderbusch518 That's a silly blanket statement. Well, people get toxoplasma mostly from not washing their vegetables while not having a cat, and that's a fact. It's good to be cautious, say, simply wear a mask when cleaning the litter (breathing dust is not healthy anyways for anybody), and another thing to get people hysterical about it. A cat spreads toxoplasma once in her life and that happens IF-IF-IF! she has the parasite. But as always we have demonised cats about it, treating it like it's a 100% possibility, as if all cat has toxoplasma. Doctors (only by name in my book) advising people to throw the cats out of the house when the woman gets pregnant and people giving you a look when you have a baby and a cat. GET EDUCATED, NOT HYSTERICAL.

@@rridderbusch518 - And just as important, do not handle raw meat that has not been frozen below 0 degrees for a few days or eat raw/rare meat or seafood. Sources of toxo in humans include contaminated soil, too. People with intact immune symptoms usually handle the parasite well. However, those most at risk are fetuses and immune-compromised people (chemotherapy, organ transplant recipient, born with or acquired an immune deficiency). The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) in the USA has a good page on toxoplasmosis.

@@rridderbusch518brother what

Agreed!

Thank you so much for your very insightful comment 🙏🏻

An excellent point. And these widespread advancements in science, medicine, awareness and compassion are not small at all! There are a lot of things to be worried and angry about, but there are also a lot of really wonderful things that have improved by LEAGUES even within only one generation. Idk, maybe I'm biased, but I like to think these advancements in compassionate care are due to the scientific method working like it's supposed to combined with the love that humans have for one another and for their fellow living beings. Our species can be violent and cruel, but it can also be very caring and compassionate. It's complicated, but it's important to celebrate the good things and find kindred spirits so that we can keep the fire alive and keep fighting to make the world a better place 💜

@@Sleipnirseight People seem to have become a bit more compassionate over the years. Lately they seem to be quickly sliding backwards. I say this as a disabled American of European & Native American ancestry. When I was young the racism was sickening. By the time I was old enough to drink I had been arrested & detained about two dozen times. I started buying several drivers side tail light lenses for my car at the salvage yard, that way after the cop broke my tail light with their flashlight I could quickly fix it with a screw driver. As often racist cops would break the tail light so they could claim they had "probable cause". If they gave me an excuse for their behavior it was something racial like "your kind is known for drunk driving"... While things got better, more recently they got worse. I really could do without the Hate from MAGA Hatters because they view the existence of someone like me as "contamination of the great white race". Racist name calling, two cars trashed, having a handgun pointed at me, being assaulted, being called a "God Damned Halfbreed" or a "Deport yourself to Mexico you Mother Fucking Sp-word" as that is more of an an insult, because I don't look like our Latino brothers and sisters. And always "it's only a civil matter" and "you should move" from our Police... And yet often they still seem to love their dog, just not other people who happen to be different. After I prevented two dogs from running loose into a busy street and instead of thanking me, their human tried to bash my head in. But that damned MAGA Hat somehow gives them licence to be racist, violent and abusive.... That is why I prefer my cat friends to most humans. Currently I only have Mrs. Jett as at nineteen, she is too old for a new companion. I adopted her from a local veterinarian clinic when she was 15. She is also a bit greedy with my company, so I will wait till she goes home to adopt another pair of bonded litter-mates... My first pair of kittens were Mrs. Bill and Mrs. Ted. My friends, Karen & Steve had an appointment to get Sid, their cat "fixed" when during her first heat, when Lance, a friend of theirs accidentally let her out. So white Steven & Lance were yelling at Sid to come off the apartment roof while she was busy with a series of neighborhood Toms, I smoked a bowl with Karen and agreed to adopt the females of the litter... Mrs. Bill developed epilepsy while young and Mrs. Ted developed cataracts at middle age and went blind. But they were fine as they were and lived to kitty old age.... When Bill had to be put to sleep because of cancer, I adopted Mrs. Inky & Mrs. Twiggy, also litter-mates. As Mrs. Ted had never been alone, and started having serious anxiety when no one was home. Blind as she was, Mrs. Ted made it clear to Mrs. Inky & Twiggy who was boss with a few well placed wacks on the head. But her anxiety about being alone went away and would even share the sofa with Mrs. Inky & Twiggy. While Mrs. Inky lost an eye to cancer and Mrs. Twiggy occasionally needed subcutaneous fluid added because of renal disease they lived to kitty old age...

❤❤❤

My late cat Inky lost an eye to cancer. She would do her "ack ack ack" at the window when she saw those tasty grey moths, a bird or even the life flight helicopter at the hospital a block away. But she did just fine with one eye. My late cat Mrs. Ted went blind from cataracts at middle age and she was just fine... I lost my depth perception in a near fatal car accident caused by a drunk driver. I regained some of it back with surgery but I don't rely on it when driving. So I know how you feel...

Totally agree! We are so lucky to have veterinary neurologists where we are and were able to get Lily the care she needed. Your pup is lucky to have you!

It’s called canine cognitive dysfunction, it’s a diagnosis and it’s not something vets don’t understand. I’m not sure where you’re getting that information. Dogs with this condition are often medicated for anxiety and to stimulate hunger and should be watched for a sharp decline in quality of life as their brain is eaten away. It’s dementia, but in dogs. Any vet should know that…

It cant complete its lifecycle in humans, so you don’t “have” it. You may have had it at some point. But the worms die.

Hi! Lily’s mom here, thanks so much for this sweet comment ❤

I have had a totally blind cat and a cat that lost one eye to cancer. They don't need to be able to see to be an indoor car. But then they are adapted to hunt in total darkness. My blind cat did manage to bite a veterinarian through her finger nail as she made the mistake of ignoring what I said about Mrs. Ted not liking veterinarians. So she made the mistake of treating her without an assistant....
