Since Pam hadn't responded to any messages last night I figured she's
busy with Berfert and Rob and everything else she has on her plate
lately. So I called the last contact I had for a vet that they used.
Berfert was there when I called getting IV fluids.  I don't have any

Nathan is nursing an aching right eyebrow. Why? A certain one-eyed black
ladycat's standard form of greeting on a hoomin that is sitting down is to jump
on said hoomin and give the hoomin a substantial headbonk in the region of the
eyebrow. Yesterday Waffles felt in need of greeting ...

Little Feet normally sleeps very close to my head at night. Last
night, however, I was tossing and turning, so he decided on another
place to sleep.

kind of record.
Of course I did wake up long enough to tell Jill that I think if one of you
guys didn't get through to me, I can't imagine that there would be any

OK, the grandbabies have left for home!  :<  And I now have 903 posts to
catch up on!  :0
The kids have left me worn out, the house is a wreck, three of my cats are

Since someone seems to be keeping a list of high scores, I will post
mine, that I got about an hour ago. 125,640. The only reason I didn't

This may have been discussed here, but cats make a bewildering
assortment of vocal sounds - meows, yowls, semi-barks, purrr-mrrrowws

noises we make - let's say when we speak their names. When I say

Teenagers have a lot in common with cats
1.) Neither teenagers nor cats turn their heads when you call them by

Today I mailed my international cards. (The domestic cards will get
finished this weekend.) On the name list, some of the people in UK
just put UK at the bottom of the addie. Others put England. So I
copied them exactly as was. But my Postmaster had me put England on
