This is probably the most interesting interaction I've had with Billi and the buttons to date!⠀
.⠀
Billi has Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), it's mild, but chronic. It's managed very well with just a prescription diet to make sure the protein in her food is highly digestible! I'm also very careful to not deviate from it. HOWEVER - she sometimes turns into a sneak and steals food when I'm not expecting it 🤦🏼♀️ This happened the night before, and you can see the result with just a small "cheat" meal. ⠀
.⠀
I find this interesting for a few reasons: ⠀
1. cats typically like to hide when they vomit, the fact that she brought my attention to it before it happened is fascinating!⠀
2. she was able to associate "ouch" in a way that hasn't been modeled before - for nausea.⠀
.⠀
She bounced back after her treatment, but not before pouting for 3 hours under the bed because mommy was "mean and poked her". Maybe I can eventually convey those injections are good for her, but until then I'll take the pouting in stride 😹⠀
.⠀
PSA - I'm a veterinarian and Billi is well taken care of medically 🤗 She's just an older lady with a few manageable health issues!⠀

Billi is a female domestic shorthair, she's 12 years old, her favorite word is mad. Inspiration from Hunger4Words (check her out on IG).
