Elderly kitties lose body heat. Mishka and Jasper started pressing themselves up against the heater.

Adorable.

Argh, just caught Angel pecking away at an avocado on the ground! I think the cockatoos might be eating the tops of them like they do the lemons, but aren't the skins toxic? Not sure if she ingested any skin or was just pecking away at the flesh, and not sure how much she had. I saw a thread that suggested activated charcoal, but the person's chicken seemed fine and it was from 2021.

Maybe post in the emergencies forum for help.

Hope she'll be ok

Blossom is back home after her follow up appointment and she's doing so well, she can go back to eating her normal food and crunchies

Supposedly toxic but I don’t know how much is a problem. I wouldn’t think she would eat it if it was toxic.

I've been throwing avo skins to my girls for years & not killed one yet. Suspect they'd need to eat a huge amount for it to be toxic.
