Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / March 2004Purrs for Oberon
My friend's cat Oberon is very sick - he suddenly lost weight and got listless and wouldn't eat. He's been in the animal hospital for a few days, getting biopsies on various suspicious spots (on x-rays) and internal sores. The vets think he has cancer, but no conclusions yet. My friend is still waiting for the biopsy results. Oberon is her favorite among her large brood of cats (7 in all). He's a Maine Coon, very affectionate, and well-loved by all the cats in the household, some of whom are pretty scrappy with each other (he's the peacemaker). Any well-wishes for him would be appreciated! Joyce Purrs on the way for Oberon. Lois > My friend's cat Oberon is very sick - he suddenly lost weight and got > listless and wouldn't eat.

Thank you. I certainly hope that's the case. My friend sounded so miserable on the phone the other day, telling me about it. This is someone who doesn't easily show emotion, and she was crying her eyes out. Pets will bring that out in a person. > BTW, very nice name for a cat! Yes, all her cats have cool names. She's the same person who came up with the name Licorice for my kitty, by the way! (You didn't think that *I* thought of that, did you? If it had been up to me, I would've ended up calling him Black Cat or something... :)) Joyce >Any well-wishes for him would be appreciated! Adding our purrs, doggy-wags, and best wishes for Oberon.

Please do! I picture Oberon as a sweet orange kitty? I guess that's because we have a few people here who have orange boy Maine Coons. > Please do! I picture Oberon as a sweet orange kitty? I guess that's > because we have a few people here who have orange boy Maine Coons. Actually, I don't know what he looks like. This friend has never invited me inside her house. One day recently, she was talking about her cats, and I said, "I have a feeling I'm never going to get to meet these cats, am I?" She said, "You're probably right." Apparently, she is a terrible housekeeper, and with 7 cats, even a good housekeeper would have trouble keeping up, so she's embarrrassed to let anyone see her place. I think that's too bad. I've had quite a few friends who were horrendous housekeepers, and while it's not totally pleasant to be in their homes, I don't think any less of them as people. One friend of mine had about 15 cats in her apartment. It was a very large apartment and some of those cats went outside part of the time, but the place was still a mess. Of course, it didn't help that she was a total OCD hoarder and her apartment was the kind of place you had to cut a path through junk on the floor just to walk around. And it smelled of cat pee, dust and mildew, making my asthma kick up. Not a great place to hang around. So we didn't hang out there. But she was still a great friend. I don't judge people on their housecleaning skills. My place is fairly neat, but hardly house beautiful! Anyway - a digression from the main point, which is that I have no idea what color Oberon is! (But I picture him as a brown tabby.) Joyce > > Please do! I picture Oberon as a sweet orange kitty? I guess that's > > because we have a few people here who have orange boy Maine Coons. [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] >housekeeper, and with 7 cats, even a good housekeeper would have trouble >keeping up, so she's embarrrassed to let anyone see her place. I personally think that humans are a lot messier than most cats. :) I sometimes think that it would be nice to have a housekeeper like Britta does. Or maybe an island like Marina has. I've looked online at some tropical island prices though, and most of them are out of my price range, plus you then need to get one of those planes that can land on water. > I personally think that humans are a lot messier than most cats. :) > [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > price range, plus you then need to get one of those planes that can > land on water. What we need to do is pool our moneys together (the group) and buy an island. They sell them in Minnesota as well as in the Caribbean, I understand. Anyway, we could then have the catslaves resort where we and our cats can vacation in peace. Yeah, right. But it's an intriguing thought anyway.

Hey, wasn't there a plan to do just that some time ago among the then-regular chatters? I'd forgotten about that, but now that I'm reminded I think it's a mighty good idea. IIRC, though, only four-legged guys were allowed. Sorry, Tak. ;-) ------ Krista >> What we need to do is pool our moneys together (the group) and buy an >> island.

We'd have plenty of room for our private needs and to bury any booty. We'd want slaves, er servants anyway to open cans and catch dinner from the sea. This would be just that little bit more work for them. Cap'n Pine Cone still being very patient with Tak. > Oberon is her favorite among her large brood of cats (7 in all).

Purrs and healing thoughts for Oberon and his family. I really think Maine Coons are "gentle giants" and peace makers among their fellow cats. At least ours is.
