Hi sorry to have disappeared so suddenly!! My computer suddenly crashed,
apparently through a virus, so we eventually caved and bought a new one. So
now I am happy to be back online and I've been missing everyone here!! My
husband thinks I'm mad to go on and on about my cats, and I've missed being
able to rave on to you guys about the kittens. They have been an absolute
pleasure to have around and I have enjoyed every minute, however I am not
able to stretch money much further, and as they are now 3 months old, I am
rehoming them...but cautiously. I have decided to keep at least one, Larry,
and maybe one of the other boys, if I can't find good enough homes for them.
I was very fortunate to find a wonderful home for Violette, the little girl
cat, with the neighbour of one of my mum's friends. they have a large family
of older children, and are well off enough to spoil her rotten, and even
better have a good cat track record. Their elderly cat who just passed away
was desexed and indoors only, so I have been very lucky, as my city isn't
cat-oriented, more into dogs.I tried to rehome them through the RSPCA,
however they weren't able to help. So now I am just hoping I will find homes
for at least one of the boys just as good as Miss Violettes!! Jasmine is
enjoying her independance now the kitties are getting older, and maintaining
her position as Head Cat with a lot more dignity than the others!!! She is
very gracious to the others, even allowing them first helping to
treats...Cougar is quite pushy with anything to do with food, so no surprise
there!! Mango is growing up very quickly, and considers the Gang of orange
to be his brothers, and you can imagine the mess the four boys make
rampaging around the house!! Well that's it for now, it's good to be back
and I would love to hear from any of you, and catch up. Is Unca Frank still
around? I've been worried about him, and not knowing how he was.Is everyone
else still ok? I tried to email Mme Anais from my phone, but I'm not sure it
worked.

I'm sorry I wasn't around Marina. I will really miss your Frank stories.
That haiku is beautiful, and a fitting tribute to such a wonderful cat. All
our cats are loved, but only some allow us to really be their friend- Frank
was one of those.

Thank you for remembering my darling Frank. Yes, he was my best friend
for nearly 18 years. I feel lost and not sure about who I am without
him. Sorry for being so curt in my original reply, but sometimes it just
hits me like a ton of bricks that he is really gone and I won't see him
ever again. It's been a hard week (not caused by your post, it started
before that).

well I hope your week is improving. I know the feeling of losing a good
friend...they might be 'just animals' to others, but the comfort they give
us is wonderful. and not many come along that cross from 'pet' into
'friend'. you were lucky to have Frank for that long....I am sorry I
couldn't meet him, as his personality came across even in the ng. Purrs and
hugs to you, may his memory become happy to you and not be painful any
more....Hugs, Marina

A while after I lost Doc and Jennifer, and had already gotten Sundance and
Rebecca, I kept feeling like something was wrong.  I was supposed to be with
Doc and Jennifer, not these two new cats.  It can take a while, but I hope
having Miranda and Caliban helps.

Yes, that's exactly how it feels. Like something's not quite right.
Thanks for your kind words, Mir-mir and Caliban do fill the emptiness.

Welcome back. I hope you're going to keep your anti-virus up to date in
future.

Yep, brand new Norton Antivirus has already stopped 1 worm and 1 trojan
since plugging in yesterday. And both from sites we regularly use and don't
consider 'high risk' which is really scary.

Only way to go they are number one for anti virus  mine caught a virus in
another newsgroups

did you go into the options and change the options for the bloodhound under
auto protect and manual scan  also check mark scan in compressed files
 and you know that Norton's does not run real full scan you manually have
to set one up
