I had a little black and white visitor in my garden this morning.
I startled her when I went out early to turn the sprinkler line
on. I realised she was a cat I always used to see while I was
walking from the bus stop to my house. If I didn't stop and give

We're in the process of moving from our house in one state to an
apartment in another state while we wait for our new condo to be built.
 Going from an 2000 sq. ft house to a 1200 sq. ft condo (and I get
twice the mortgage for almost half the space) has been interesting-- had

At first I thought it was kind of funny when he started talking about
momma Little Bit and Rocky getting fluffier. I happily translated that
to mean they were FAT, and told them so as often as I thought I could
and still live.

If I may could I please ask for a few purrs for the husband of my son's
teacher.  He is undergoing surgery for stomach cancer today and I feel the
purrs can only help a very scary and sad situation.  My son has some very
special needs and is in special education; his teacher, Ms. ...

I got out of work early today, so I thought I'd use my time to catch up on
the NG. Went to the store and picked up some Dew, a sandwich and some
pretzels. Also grabbed a six pack of Smirnoff Twisted mandarin orange
(yuummmy) for the heck of it.

This is my second go at posting this, I was within seconds of posting last
week and the power went off............. bugger!!
First of all many thanks to all who posted congratulations and best wishes
on this ng.

The pair were doing a slow dance in the garden.   Bonnie's acrobatics
were amazing - a series of triple somersaults.   The bumble bee was not
pleased, there was a definitely angry note in its buzzing.  Then she
scored.   Our bumble friend was down but not out.   Bonnie was amazed at

Don't know if everyone read my earlier post, but we have two kittles, Marari
and Mysti.  We just had Mysti spayed yesterday, and I wanted to thank
everyone for their purrs on her recovery.
She's doing great.  The vet gave us a pain pill for her to take today, half

Hi, all
Two weeks ago I took Tin?viel, my 2,5 years Devon Rex queen, off the Pill.
She had a litter of four beautiful kittens Nov. 2002, and after that she was
put on the Pill once a week. She is an indoor cat, but her son is living

   My cat Misty who is, unfortunately, no longer with us used to
exhibit a behavior my wife and I called, "The Fang!"  When her humans
did something that displeased her, she would let just one of her fangs
protrude from her mouth.  

   Just got through playing 'red bug' with my purebred Persian.  In
spite of her championship bloodlines, she was a rescue.  Her original
owners both worked and Roxy was left in the garage alone most of the
time.  This couple was a pair of those people who just had to have a

   This seems like a nice community, and if you all don't mind, I'm
going to hang around.  I realize I posted quite a few times today --
it's not something I plan to do every day of course, but I thought I'd
let you all know a little about me (well at least about my babies).

The little kitten I asked you all to help name now has a name.  She is called
Bella.  They did call her Jade for a day but it didn't fit after she took over
the house and started training her slaves. Her male hoomin just calls her kitty.
He said that is all he will ever call her so ...

Last Thursday. My day off, so I stumble out of bed at 11:00 and head to the
kitchen. As I hit the entryway between the living room and kitchen, I wonder
what is crunching beneath my feet. I look down and find I am standing in a
pile of (clean) kitty litter. Further investigation ...

I'm not talking just any toy, i'm talking about a toy that the cat
gets all bug-eyed.  The kind of toy that makes your cat's eyes widen,
gets him to duck down into stealth/kill mode.
Imp loves the Cat Dancer.  Sometimes I'll just tie one end to a
