Awww thanks for reading about Jerry, Susan. That makes our hearts happy.

And you are contributing in so many ways by sharing Maceo's story. Thank you so much.

Wow Maceo and family are you ever doing incredibly well! Good for you guys! I have just caught up on your blogs and now this forum and I am more than thrilled for you! 

What an incredible kitty you are Maceo!clap You're showing all those Tripawd kitties that anything is pawsible! As Paka Tom would say you are a Mashujaa Paka! (Hero Kitty!) Charlie must be in total awe of your accomplishments. We would love to see a picture of you together.

And my little fella, the Steve Job look.... very cool buddy!way-cool

Spike, Chester and Miss Lily are rooting for you... they absolutely love your pictures! Our old man Spike was demanding his chicken when he saw th video of Maceo eating his meat treats! He's obviously a very proud boy, but, like Spikey, when it comes to his food... keep fingers and toes out of the way folks!!! mad 😂 

Cuddles to Maceo and Charlie both and hugs to Mum and Dad for being such brilliant pawrents!superstar

Sloppy kisses from Stewie👅🐾
& all the very best from his adoring pack,
Petra, Paul, & his feline siblings, Mr. Spike, Chester Molester & Miss Lily 🐾🐾🐾❤️.

Thank you for the kind words of cheer and support! Just for fun, here is a montage of Maceo "playing" with (aka, stealing from!) his little brother Charlie.

Pretty cute, and he definitely doesn't feel any lesser as a tripawd.

Side note -- does anyone else notice that catnip can make a cat somewhat violent towards the catnip source? I would not want to be that banana....!

Maceo & Charlie you are two very cute boys! Love the montage of banana 🍌 theft! Mr. Spike used to get right fierce over his catnip too! He and Maceo have a lot in common, I think!

Keep up the good work Maceo, you're doing great! Tripawd power at its best!

Thanks so much for those great articles, Holly! Wow, sums it up to a tee on the "aggression" bit :O 

How funny, you noticed that Charlie is huge now! Still, he acts and seems like a baby -- his meow is a tiny baby meow, and even his purr is this very slight, baby vibration.

Nothing like his big bro Maceo with his big boy voice. People always ask me if there's a screaming baby in the background during phone calls and video calls! 

Meanwhile, catnip or no catnip, Maceo continues his dominating behavior towards "little" Charlie! As evidenced here

That is NOT what I expected to see you said dominating his brother OMC that is adorable !! He ADORES CHARLIE!!!

I can see Maceo incision better on this video , I didn't realize it was all the way up the neck. I can see why he would stick his little neck out now! I believe acupuncture will still help! I know that's in a different forum just wanted to mention it;) He gets around great ! 

Love them both smooches and scratches to Maceo and Charlie born to be with each other!

❤️

Oh My Gongases!!! I definitely have to ditto what Holly & Purrkins said... they are a match made in Heaven! How incredible that Charlie totally gives up his belly to Maceo! Mind you it is completely to Charlie's benefit!clap A Day at the spa! Maceo, you are an absolute gentleman! Thank you so much for that video. Again ditto what Holly said... not what I expected to see, when talking of dominant behaviour! 

Loves and cuddles and chin scratches to both of you adorable boys!
