Sis says to tell you that she will be 19 next July! Her sister (littermate) passed over to the other side about 10 years ago. Sis, short for Persistence, is hard of hearing, somewhat crotchety, has to eat canned food cause about 10 years back I noticed the dry Senior stuff seemed to be hard for her to eat. Sis is very persistent about food! She was not weaned, & I had to feed her by hand as a baby. She is still fussy when hungry (as most of us are) and instead of a clear toned "meow" she has a scratchy voice now. Not to mention gray hairs on the back of her neck & head. I gave Sis & her sister kitty vitamins in a tube every day all of their lives, otherwise they ate Friskies dry--they absolutely would not eat the hoity-toity brands! She is being persistent even as I type, so please excuse me as I go pet her at her dish so she will eat the chicken & tuna in gravy which is in front of her face.
