Just Pass Me By

Yesterday I had posted about Otis my Cat. He had a hair ball that got stuck in his throat and I had to stick my fingers in his throat and pull it out. I think that was the second most scariest experiences with my cat. My finger which he bite during this time is a little tender today but not infected, I think he bruised it.

Otis is doing good today he pretty much back to his old self.  He was very interested in the Birds which where outside this morning and was doing his little bird meow. He ran around a little bit and ate a bunch of his food which is a good sign. I decided today I wouldn’t call work and see if they could get me an assignment because I want to be close to Otis just in case. Yesterday scared me and if he starts having trouble I don’t want him to be a lone. He like a kid to me, I know I am strange.

Today I had to run to Lunds a store next to us, and get something for the dishwasher. I feel like a idiot, my dish washer stop washing the dishes correctly and it was bone dry of raise aide.  Maintenance didn’t think there was anything wrong with it, well there probably isn’t it’s probably the water pressure that wrong, but I will give them it needed some Jetdry or something in the Raise aide stuff. I decided before running I run to LUNDS and get what I need. I got a few groceries and a couple of cleaning things for the Kitchen. I didn’t find anything other then jetdry for Raise Aid, okay I get a small bottle and hope that works. I found nothing for Otis problem. I decided I try the little drug store near Lunds on the way home.  I told the Ladies I have 2 questions, the first one is do you have any dishwasher stuff. They didn’t have what I needed. Then I told her my second question do you have any thing for Cats, like Hairball stuff.. The lady told me Vaseline was a good thing to use and her mom used it on her cats. Okay interesting never heard of that. I decided okay it wouldn’t hurt to buy it and then go home and look on line. I don’t want to accidentally kill the Cat .

I learned it was safe to use but not to over use it, because it can cause trouble with observing Fat soluble  Vitamins, which is important for Otis to get. Using it a couple times a week depending on how bad the Hairball trouble is. Otis is long haired, I am thinking maybe once a week or less if I need to increase to more twice a week, or if it needs to be that for a while, I think I will bring him to a vet and make sure that doing that will be safe for him, I do not want to do anything to hurt him. Otis seemed to like it, he licked some of it off my finger, and then I stuck the rest on his nose he didn’t really like that to much.
