Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / March 2005Beastie update
As I was catching up on rpca - apologies for the prolonged absence but I have done penance and lit candles when appropriate, two on Friday :-( - Beast announced his hunger and, giving him his liver*, here's an update. Despite his various ailments he trundles on, occasionally off his feed for a day or two or, worse, disappearing. He's down to near 6 lbs but aside from some instability he's getting around OK. He's not wandering outside the yard anymore - with his bad eyes and ears he is constantly surprised/scared by any motion not in front of him. He doesn't play anymore either but grateful for attention and purrs by my side each night. From the first when Quinn showed up he has doted on the Beast, his head- butts nearly knocking Beastie over but no exception taken and they often sleep together: http://community.webshots.com/photo/8368123/280060070pBUzwg I miss the binaroes group, I have to use individual.net until I get back to Pennsylvania - next winter I suppose I'll search out a new server. Purrs for those in need, Norm (* no chianti and fava beans tho) -- "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from masochism." <AC Clark via me> > As I was catching up on rpca - apologies for the prolonged absence but > I have done penance and lit candles when appropriate, two on Friday :-( [quoted text clipped - 21 lines] > "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from > masochism." <AC Clark via me> Norm, isn't Quinn the kitty you posted photos of stretched out between two bar stools? I saved his before and after pics, they are so stunning. How long have you had Beastie? > > As I was catching up on rpca - apologies for the prolonged absence but > > I have done penance and lit candles when appropriate, two on Friday :-( [quoted text clipped - 17 lines] > > > > Purrs for those in need, Norm (* no chianti and fava beans tho) > Norm, isn't Quinn the kitty you posted photos of stretched out > between two bar stools?

He was full grown then so I give him the proverbial year-old, making him maybe 19 this summer. Of course, being the contrary beast he's always been, he's outlived beloved Max. Yes, that's one and the same Quinn ... the only. He's still almost as playful as when he learned to play, heh. -- "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from masochism." <AC Clark via me> > I miss the binaroes group, I have to use individual.net until I get back > to Pennsylvania - next winter I suppose I'll search out a new server. I wanted to mention that you can use this free news server to view binary groups: dp.news-maxwell.syr.edu You cannot post from that account, but if you just add the line above as a new news server account, you may then download and view binaries groups there. I have used it for years and it is very reliable. I like alt.binaries.pictures.animals. There are other free news servers you may use to view and perhaps to post to binaries groups. Anyone who needs one just let me know. > From the first when Quinn showed up he has doted on the Beast, his head- > butts nearly knocking Beastie over but no exception taken and they often > sleep together: > http://community.webshots.com/photo/8368123/280060070pBUzwg > I miss the binaroes group, I have to use individual.net until I get back > to Pennsylvania - next winter I suppose I'll search out a new server.

Quinn's the long-haired fat rescuee. -- "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from masochism." <AC Clark via me> >As I was catching up on rpca - apologies for the prolonged absence but >I have done penance and lit candles when appropriate, two on Friday :-( >- Beast announced his hunger and, giving him his liver*, here's an >update. Purrs for Beastie to have a peaceful, contented rest-of-his-life beside his devoted slave and buddy Quinn. -- CATherine > From the first when Quinn showed up he has doted on the Beast, his head- > butts nearly knocking Beastie over but no exception taken and they often > sleep together: > http://community.webshots.com/photo/8368123/280060070pBUzwg Lovely picture. Buddy sleeping is so sweet. Purrs for Beastie to continue for a long time.

Yes, love it when cats are buddies, not really since the Siamese have mine - wait, no, when Franz joined the household he had a real letch for Beast, would follow him around and Beast would run, hissing. It so was comic, like, "Yoo hoo! Sailor! Seafood! Wait for me". Norm (eventually Beastie got to the point of letting Franz be close) -- "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from masochism." <AC Clark via me> > > > From the first when Quinn showed up he has doted on the Beast, his head- > > > butts nearly knocking Beastie over but no exception taken and they often [quoted text clipped - 10 lines] > > Norm (eventually Beastie got to the point of letting Franz be close) It is sure nice he has a friend/protector/nurse buddy.
