And keep his sugar normal as possible.

I sympathize with you kitty darling, I have diabeties too.

he was a black long haired 'norwegan forest cat'. he would point his toes forward so i could brush the back of his legs, his pantaloons got brushed. my later 'maine coon' sybil would put her front paws on the desk so i could do her pantaloons.

she didn't brush him first. That was a lot of cat fur!!

Anyway, he's an adorable baby and I would just love to hug on him.

My cat has to be anesthetized by the vet to clip her claws. They hate dealing with her resistance so they charged me a huge deterring fee the last time. It worked. I can't afford to have her claws clipped when the vet clips me in the process.

She also hates being combed or brushed and has slapped a brush out of my hands while hissing at me for daring to try. She has always been like this about being brushed, since she was a kitten.

Last time I sprayed the brushing area and the brush with Felliway. Voila! No hissing. No slaps. I didn't push my luck on it for too long, but I might have found a solution.

She is normally affectionate. Loves to have her head and ears scratched and petted. She will nudge me to do it. But everywhere else on her body is off limits.
