Pet Tip
High Blood Pressure in Cats – Feline Hypertension – Pet tip 238
Although any cat can suffer from high blood pressure (hypertension) it is most commonly seen in middle aged or senior cats. In case we have forgotten what blood pressure means, blood pressure refers to the force (pressure) of circulating blood against the walls of blood vessels; the higher the force, the greater the amount of stress that’s put on the heart to move the blood. This can cause the heart muscles to enlarge, get thicker, and weaken thereby reducing life expectancy. It’s one of the vital signs used to measure the overall health of many animals including humans.

Nibbler was named after Leela's pet on "Futurama," one of her owners' favourite shows. That's because when we got her, she was small, cute, dark with a white chin and belly, and had that innocent-looking-while-eating-cows-whole 'tude going. Now that she's 1-year old and has a baby brother, she's too cool for most of her old hobbies, and spends her time lounging around, looking regal and pretending her brother Turdlet (http://www.pets.ca/petsites/viewpet.php?petid=3354) is too uncool to play with. Then he attacks her playfully, and she clobbers him, as all big sisters should. Early in the morning though, when he's not around, she forgets about being an ice-queen and comes into her parents' bed for kisses and petting, and will push her wet little nose up yours to remind you that she's still just a girl. :)
This is Nibbley engaged in one of her old favourite extreme sports: freaking out the Parents by playing in the toaster. Note how we always unplug the toaster now!
