    K9 Avril

    While not a sphynx, I had to say goodbye to my K9 partner today, she was just a few months shy of 13 and has been enjoying the retired life until Degenerative Myopathy took her down. Thankfully I have 2 Sphynx’s and 1 Dwelf that is a certified therapy cat helping me through this time.

    Thankful for a therapy cat

    What we found that makes a good therapy cat is one that is very confident in all situations and calm. We can take him on a walk on leash in just about any environment and he is very confident and calm.

    Sphinx having fun

    Both our Sphynx & Dwelf use the wheel. At first you may want to put your cat on it and use food to lure him to walk on it, baby steps.

    Feline Respiratory PCR Panel

    Thank you, yes our old vet was convinced this was caused by a common virus and that there was really nothing that could be done except manage the symptoms.

    The expo went GREAT!!! It was crazy, there was a line the entire time for people to come up and let Gimli. I know now what it would be like to be with a celebrity, lol. We literally could not walk more than 5 feet without people stopping us.
