"Antarctic hero 'reunited' with cat
By Kim Griggs

Was the question I had when I was often away from home and
my cat, Pinkeltje, was home alone. At first I was thinking about
hiring a nanny for Pinkeltje but that didn't work out that well.
Then I saw this man  on tv who had the same problem with his

Today is my 9th anniversary with my Meowmie. I also turn 10 this month.
Meowmie said it is a BIG milestone. Many times she wondered whether
I can make it to my 10th purrsday as I had a history of FUS.
But here I am, still kicking.

Have your hair cut?

The three kitties went outside this morning and had fun playing leapfrog
in the back yard.   I was deep into the Sunday newspaper when I heard it
- sounds of a 'fight to the death' cat fight.   When I got to the back
door there was the evidence - wet patches and tufts of Bonnie's ...

Just wanted to send out mass purrs, congratulations, and laughter to
everyone who needs/deserves/asks/whatever.  I've been sick for several

I had a long day at the vet hospital today.  Worked from 8 to 6 with
an hour lunch.  The day started out with an euthanasia which I
assisted with.
*sigh* Not a good way to start out the day.....

Thank you all for your purrs and prayers and good wishes for my boy.
I am positive they have helped.
DH and Mike and I went to Florida today to see an internal medicine
specialist, and were there for most of the day.  The clinic had

I've had long hair about 15 years now. I stopped cutting it in the mid-80s
and after a few years, it was as long as it is now (before that I had *very*
short hair, with all the colours of the rainbow. Will have to scan some
pictures one day). The last few years, I've had trouble ...

It was a little past midnight, and I had the con.  I was saving the
world.  All right, I was sitting at the puter, playing BounceOut.  THe
world needs to be saved from exploding rubber balls, after all.
Stinky comes along and sits at my feet.  YOO-OOOOW!  he says.  Pet me,

Got a roast beef sandwich from the deli today.  I was sitting in the
breakroom watching People's court eating it, with Pete at my elbow
examining my every move.  He tried to walk from the desk he was
sitting on to the TV tray and paw at the sandwich.
