Our cat Red has a special affinity for Maja Soap. Here he gets a brand new wrapper to cuddle up to.
His buddy Daisy (diagnosed with progressive renal failure) is holding her own. She's had a few off days but is still active. We've been told this condition can last for years. Both cats are 14 years old, so we try to keep them as happy and healthy as we can.

Daisy, the day after diagnosis Daisy, the day after diagnosis
Posted by: ejourneys

Video duration: 83 seconds

Our 14-year-old cat Daisy was diagnosed on Friday, May 26, with approaching renal failure. We don't know at this point what stage she's in, and she still seems fairly healthy. But the diagnosis inspired me to gather memories of her. Here, she seems to have developed a special fondness for my tripod.
