Wow, ya go away for a little while for vacation, and all hell breaks
loose! umm...why is anybody bothering to actually reply to a bunch of kids
with too much time on their hands? :)

Anyway...Misty, h0p, Sam, George, and Michelle all came with us to the
ocean. The cats love sitting in the windows getting the ocean breeze.  We
had a couple of scary hours with h0p, and he had two seizures
yesterday...the first in two months! I've been up most of the night
waiting to call the animal hospital to see if I can increase his
gabapentin dose from 1 ml.  The doctor at the emergency hospital had no
idea what gapapentin (his seizure medicatiopn) even is :|

That does sound scary.  I was just wondering about h0p yesterday.

No..no one is paying any attention to the kids.  There is another
mail list that I imagine most everyone is chatting on until the kids
move on..and if they don't...no big.  I don't get the thrill of trolling
or flooding.  Maybe you need to be 10 to appreciate it :-)

Glad you had a mostly good vacation.

There are hammers, and there are nails.

Thanks for thinking of him AG.  He recovered quickly and is doing really
well right now.  He's so lovey dovey and excited that he just bit a hole
in my arm and he hardly has any teeth left!

Your kat is having seizures from STRESS.

Yeah. That's 'lovey dovey' for ya...

> > No..no one is paying any attention to the kids.

Of curse not! Your animals are DYIN from
stress related DIS-EASES.

diddler got a new private list for HOWER animal
lovers.

Right. You can go hang HOWET with diddler
and her pals...

> > I don't get the thrill of trolling or flooding.

Right. You hide from the INFORMATION that SCARES YOU.

> >  Maybe you need to be 10 to appreciate it :-)

INDEED. A ten year old child would not fear not
hurting and intimidating animals.

INDEEDY.

> > Glad you had a mostly good vacation.

Yeah. The kat didn't like returning to his source of anxiety.

Hi Puppy Wizard

> Your kat is having seizures from STRESS.

Well you may be right Jerry.  He has seizures due to toxoplasmosis having
left a scar on his brain, but I'm sure that dragging him down to the ocean
with us was, indeed, stressful for him.  My alternative was to leave him
in a cage in the care of strangers though, which I'm sure would also have
been stressful.

> Of curse not! Your animals are DYIN from

aaah Jerry, Jerry, we're all dyin from stress related diseases aren't we?

> > > I don't get the thrill of trolling or flooding.

She wasn't talking about you, rather the actual troll :)

> Yeah. The kat didn't like returning to his source of anxiety.

vice versa.  I actually agree with most of what you have to say Jerry.  I
don't believe in "punishing" or intimidating or hurting animals in any
way.  I don't believe in screaming at dogs, or keeping them locked boxes,
or scaring the hell out of them until they pee every time they see a
cat...though I'm not quite sure why the post below is connected to
mine...hmm. My dog would never eat my cats! =8-|

Anyway, my cats and dog are treated well, and are well loved.  I don't
even swear around them :) Their livelong home isn't a source of anxiety for
them...why would you assume so?  I see some people say things that they
deserved to be attacked for, but you shouldn't assume that *everyone's*
mistreating their animals.

seizures.

Thanks Karen.  They upped his dose of seizure medication a little, and
he's doing great tonight!
