SWELLING: Swelling is a normal occurrence after surgery and will not reach its maximum until 2-3 days after surgery. It can be minimized by using a cold pack, ice bag or a bag of frozen peas wrapped in a towel and applied firmly to the cheek adjacent to the surgical area.
Install a motion-activated sprinkler head in the flower garden. The sudden spray of water will frighten the cats off before they urinate. Alternately, use a motion-activated noise device sold to keep birds out of gardens.
Cats & Aloe Plants. Cats and aloe plants do not mix. Cats are funny about houseplants, ignoring some but destroying or devouring others. Feasting on flora is fun for a feline but it can be dangerous for a cat's health, especially in the case of an aloe plant. Your ordinarily carnivorous cat has no problems chowing down on greenery when the urge strikes him.
