The original Words for Wednesday was begun by Delores and eventually taken over by a moveable feast of participants when Delores had computer troubles. Sadly, Delores has now closed her blog forever due to other problems. The aim of the words is to encourage us to write. A story, a poem, whatever comes to mind. If you are posting an entry on your own blog, please let us know so we can come along to read it and add a few encouraging words. This month the words/prompts are supplied by River (that's me) and can be found here This week's words/prompts are: 1. on the run 2. belong 3. street 4. breakfast 5. tent and this image: taken by "Genius" and allowed by Val . Also Charlotte's colour of the month which is Orient Red for September.

I expect it upset you more than him. If he is moulting while he gets his winter coat he will have ingested quite a lot of fur while grooming - which can make them vomit. And I wish mine would throw up somewhere which isn't carpeted or cloth.
ReplyDeleteFur balls, they do take it in their stride.
ReplyDeleteMerle...........
At least he was thoughtful enough to head for the bathroom?
ReplyDeleteWas there a furball in it? If not, maybe keep the food relatively light for a day or two.. My grumpy will head straight back for more kibble once she's done a throw up without bringing up the furball, and that rarely turns out well.. :(
ReplyDeleteWe have very few carpets here, and yet I swear my cat used to travel until he found one on which to lose his lunch.
ReplyDeleteI suggest no breakfast for Alex in the morning. A little hunger will do him well and make him more appreciative of his mistress.
ReplyDeleteHairballs. He's quite the longhair and that's a lot of grooming to do.
ReplyDeleteA thoughtful kitty.
ReplyDeleteI always try to make it to the bathroom before letting a hairball fly!!
ReplyDeleteElephant's Child; no hairballs, it was mostly water and bits of kibble. He went back to his dinner later and ate more. He's fine now. Lucky me, I have no carpet at all.
ReplyDeleteMerle; I thought of hairballs when I heard him hacking up, but there wasn't any fur at all in the mix.
Jac; there's no carpet anywhere here, so it wouldn't have mattered much, but I'm glad he went to the bathroom. I was able to clean up with toilet paper and flush the mess away.
Snoskred; no hair ball. and no more vomiting thank goodness. He's eating normally too.
Marty Damon; you have an evil cat, (*~*) I have a tiny bedside mat but Angel rarely uses it, doesn't like the feel for some reason.
Andrew; he had his usual breakfast, but he did wait until almost 5am before waking me to serve him.
Joanne; nope. Just one of those unexpected events. I think it gave him quite a surprise, he's never done that before.
joeh; he's very thoughtful sometimes, other times he's the cat from hell. Mostly he is somewhere in between.
fishducky; me too. Flushing is much easier than wiping up the mess then washing the floor.
Poor Angel...he did good by making it to the bathroom. They seem to be so embarrassed when they sick up. I know my two are when they do. It happens once in a while...not often, thankfully.
ReplyDeleteHe lick away his wounded pride. :)
"He'll" - even. :)
DeleteI to thought furballs with his fluffy coat. Hopefully it was just a one off and he will be fine from now on. I know you will be keeping a watchful eye on him. Lots of TLC and I am sure he will be fine.
ReplyDeleteLee; I think he was more confused, he kept looking at the mess as I cleaned up, then went out to the porch and refilled with more kibble.
ReplyDeleteMimsie; I hope a one off too. He seems fine and eating normally, even enjoyed a new type of food I brought home today.
You've trained him well if he remembers to head for the tiles if he wants to throw up!!! Hope he's OK!
