221.0. "Cat sleeping on mouse pad" by NOVA::EASTLAND () Tue Mar 17 1992 17:22

    
    Our Dorking started sleeping on the Mouse pad for the 386. It's got cat
    hairs all over it. I'm lucky he never ate the mouse itself. maybe he
    doesn't like Logitech meeses. Anyway, it's a bit disconcerting.

    Chris - try placing a small face cloth over the mouse pad to discourage
    your cat from sleeping on it.  It works!

    Usually, it's mice with 4 feet that attract cats.  They don't
    particularly care for the kind that don't breath.  At least they don't
    in our house.  :^)

    HMMmmmmm...maybe he figures if he hangs around on the mouse pad, a
    mouse will come along to play with him?

    Can anyone help find a topic on parasites. I'm starting to wonder if
    the cat's got worms. Maybe I'm being paranoid, but he throws up a lot
    these days, after vets said he had some kidney problems a while back.
    He's ok apart from that, but I noticed (gerross!) long worm looking
    thing, like a couple of millimeters in diameter and about 2 inches long
    in the throw up. I swear it moved! But maybe not as I was so grossed
    out I couldn't jettison it quick enough. I've seen the same thing now
    in 2 sets of vomit. I guess it could just be grass..
    
    What do worms look like? anyone seen any?

    Chris,
    
    If you haven't already get that cat to the vet A.S.A.P.  What you saw
    is tape worm.  And a large tapeworm to boot.  My Yoda had that and the
    Vet gave him a shot and some pills and he was as good as new in a
    couple of days.  It is gross!!!  The vet said that the tape worm has to
    be huge to be in the stomach.  
    
    Yuck!!!!
    
    Good luck,
    Candy
