Haven't sorted out the exact details yet, but here's the idea:
Nominate you favourite post from the last year that reflects the sort of
things Dave Y stood for: honour, decency, love of life, love of animals,
gentleness of spirit, laughing at one's self, mischeviousness, love of

I think I may have mentioned the arrival of Bruce in the home of
Harry-the-cat. Bruce has settled in very nicely, aside from his dining
problems. His new hoomins put down two bowls, one for Bruce and one for
Harry. Bruce starts eating his, decides Harry's looks better, tries to eat

We've had our cable turned off for a couple of weeks (due to customer
service issues with that nasty little monopoly) and I've just heard of the
passing of one of my favorite funny-men, Johnny Carson. In keeping with his
spirit of humor, his unabashed desire and ability to push the ...

Thank you to all who responded to my purr request for my co-worker's wife
who is in the hospital with a spinal infection.
I'm sorry I wasn't able to get back with everyone, but RL got in the way.
Anyway, the husband was back at work today and said that his wife is still

Phoenix is going to the vets for the necessary 'snip 'n chip' tomorrow
morning. Purrs would be much apprieciated. I will problably be much more
worried than I need be, as it is the first time I have ever had a pet, and
have never taken one to the vet before! (All jabs etc were ...

Hi all, I (finally) added some new pictures of my four footed family  to my
yahoo photo album, today. Now you can see how pretty Nina is in her
adolescence. =o) You also get to see how Pan looked with his  peg leg.  He's
still sulking majestically in the closet, and I'm afraid his ...

I will never fathom the unfathomable depth that is the mind of the feline.
The mighty huntress, when out, has taken to be demanding to be in - not at
the front door, not at the back door, not at the side door, not even from
the window sill.

After being the Meowmy to a senior-citizen kitty for years, I'd forgotten
what it's like to have kittens in the house. For example, there is the
occasional almighty CRASH as they explore something new, and discover the
hard way that the something would've been better left alone.

Tanada and I are two GOWs (Grouchy Old Women) with grudging respect for
each other.  We even like each other most of the time.  We even have a
lot in common.  In fact, we even learn from each other upon occasion.
I tried to get to sleep at a reasonable hour last night because I ...

I know it's not the most desirable subject, but it sure has my attention
today. I'm a ways south of Rochester, NY< USA, and we got six inches
yesterday, another three today. Temps about 10 F. I'm told that closer to
Lake Ontario got bombed with about a foot.

My collection can't be the only ones who show this behavior.  When
there's a patch of sunlight on the floor, many cats will lie in to
soak up some rays -- everyone knows this.  At night though, when the
lights are on, mine will put their head almost up against the light

had *enough*.
My name is Lyn, I'm 41 (yikes!) and live near Portland, OR.  I have two
feline companions - Mimi (14) and Peewee (13), two canines, two snakes

I just stumbled across a job opening that looks very attractive. Linux
system admin for a company about 15 miles from where I live. From the
description they posted, it sounds like it would be a near-perfect fit!
Let's keep our fingers crossed that they are as interested in me as ...
