Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / March 2008Nanki-Poo: Surgery is over
The vet's office just called. Nanki-Poo is out of surgery and doing well. They have him on fluids right now, and still think he should be able to come home around 5:15. This morning was a bit rough (not even counting having to get up so early). He wasn't hard to catch, and he didn't fight me when I put him in the carrier, but I set it on a chair for a minute and he struggled so hard he knocked it on the floor. He cried at first, then quieted down. I bawled my head off when they took him away.  SignatureJoy My mind is like a parachute...it functions only when open. > The vet's office just called.

I hate it when they cry because they do not understand that we are doing is the best for them. It always makes me weep. >> The vet's office just called. Nanki-Poo is out of surgery and doing >> well.

Boyfriend is a big wimp when it comes to being put in a carrier and taken in the car. He emits heartrending cries as soon as I start the engine..all the way there and all the way back. He is usually a quiet kitty. He's only been to TED three times. Once for his snip, once for his microchip to be implanted and a few months ago when "he got bit" in a fight. Kitty Farmcat, OTOH, is completely silent on her way to TED. I once made the mistake of taking her in a cardboard cat carrier. She was ripping her way out within a mile. Five miles to go and I had to put my foot down, KFC loose in the car and p*ssed off would not be a happy experience. I screeched to a halt in the vet's car park just as she burst out of the box. She was pretty annoyed to put it mildly. She was mega annoyed actually. She slashed the vet and bit him and I have a new wooden box thingie with ventilation to take my cats to TED now.

She really knows how to express her displeasure. I used to have a cat who would start yowling when I put him in the carrier, regularly, about every 20-30 seconds. He wouldn't stop until we let him out of the carrier at home. We'd take him in for shots and people in the waiting room would think he was in terrible pain and ask, "What's the matter with the poor kitty?" Joy > Wow! She really knows how to express her displeasure. > [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > > Joy Berfert RB used to moan from the moment he was put into a car to the minute he was out of it. This was really bad when we were moving here from Lewiston Idaho. He'd perch on the back of the driver's seat and moan every 30 seconds or so into the driver's ears. Rob endured it for days. I lasted less than an hour. This was before we learned that one never ever drove with a cat loose in the car. Now they get placed in their carriers and sing different songs in different keys the whole time they're being transported. Pine Cone will settle down for females, but not males and the others act rather subdued at TEDs. I have donated more socks to post TED punishment than I really want to think about.

Yep, that's Boyfie. He is so gentle with the vets too, always. Unlike silent KFC at TED "Touch me and die, just wait until you get me out of the box." They have learnt that a quiet cat in the box does not mean it will be easy to handle thanks to my fiesty girl Tweed > The vet's office just called.

I certainly will if he'll accept it. He's pretty much of a smuggler, so I probably will, unless he's mad at me again. Joy Purrs and prayers for Nanki-poo's quick recovery.

I hadn't said anything about e cards but, now that it is mentioned, I got three replies to e cards from fellas I don't even know. I DO NOT send e cards.

Some spammers use this routine to go phishing. If someone replies to the email (I'm always amazed by how many people do) it confirms they reached a valid email address.

So if the spam message doesn't bounce, it's a valid addy, but then comes the question, if it's in active use or not... and will the user go for the bait... SignatureChristine in Laitila, Finland christal63 (at) gmail (dot) com I don't understand half the stuff that goes on in cyberspace, I just know they had my email address, the spaz one to reply to. I told them the cards were not from me, I wasn't in the habit of sending strange men cards and, they shouldn't be opening stuff they didn't recognize. I then blocked them. I will have to start watching closer what comes in to me. > jmcquown kirjoitti: >> [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > addy, but then comes the question, if it's in active use or not... and > will the user go for the bait... > jmcquown kirjoitti: >> [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > addy, but then comes the question, if it's in active use or not... and > will the user go for the bait... True... I've got a couple of email addresses I never even check. They can send all the crap they want to those! LOL Jill > I've understood that emails "bounce" from invalid email addresses, such > that don't exist. So if the spam message doesn't bounce, it's a valid > addy, but then comes the question, if it's in active use or not... and > will the user go for the bait... It all depends on the configuration of the mail server that receives the e-mail. Standard config a few years ago was to accept mail sent to bogus addresses then silently drop it. That way spammers never learned whether they were sending to a valid address. But now a lot of ISPs do check for valid recipient addresses early in the SMTP transaction and reject mail sent to bogus addresses. This is done simply to reduce the amount of e-mail that the mail servers have to handle. The ISP I work for isn't all that big, but even so our incoming servers handle over a million messages a day. >> I've understood that emails "bounce" from invalid email addresses, such >> that don't exist.

My brother was telling me the Exchange server at work is set up to catch junk email but they can't set it to automatically delete it. The reason being many of their clients put things in the subject line which a lot of spammers also use (money, finance, etc.). Some poor sap has to manually go through the junk email folder every day and figure out what is really junk!

Having to keep a Sexchange server running in the first place is a horrid task, but someone having to review a global junk mail folder? Ye gods! >> My brother was telling me the Exchange server at work is set up to >> catch junk email but they can't set it to automatically delete it. [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > running in the first place is a horrid task, but someone having to > review a global junk mail folder? Ye gods! I send my users (about 3000) all their junk email. It tells them in the subject it might be spam but they get it and they can decide to keep it or not. I will create a junk folder for all of them in a few weeks and after that the junk will delete when it is about two weeks old but no way I would make anyone do that job globally. I _never_ click on links to e-cards these days, many have hidden links to malware.

When we took Fugazi and Isis into be spayed, Isis finding herself bereft of Hoomins and in a strange place cried and set every other cat off apart from Fugazi who was too busy plotting how to get her revenge (and boy did she!).
