Lily & Max
“We haven’t seen any cord chewing at all.”
Things have been going quite well with Lily since your visit. We haven’t seen any cord chewing at all. While we were gone we gave them free reign of the house and had no chewing of plants or cords…Thanks so much for your consultation and concern for the cats.
