Lori Holly needs Purrs big time, She started with a headache about 1 hour
ago while they were taking her down for her radiation, when they brought her

I don't know where she creaks, but she seems to have a distinctive creaking
sound when she walks. It doesn't slow her down at all as she is as playful
as ever (just discovered an old mousie this morning and was running around
with it). Last night, I had to pick up the food bowl in ...

I just thought I would tell you about the newest (at least I had not seen
her before) clinic cat "Oscar". Why so named? You guessed it. SHe is
chronically grouchy. Follows you everywhere swearing at you and is a swiper.
She is liiiitttle. Maybe 4 or 5 pounds, full grown. long white ...

Waffles is making a stand, well, she and I are standing together even though
we are outnumbered by the males of the species in this household. She & I
are outnumbered by two to one: Vernon, Nathan, Francis and Marble.
In true feline style, she seems to view yours truly going to ...

From Holly, relayed through James, and then through me:
Purrs to Sonya, Grant, Cosmo, and everyone, fur and bare, who needs them.
To Karen - Sasha's toy came in the mail and she is having a ball with it,
but being a bit selfish with it and won't share it with the other kitties.

I don't know why, but Persia got up extra early this morning.  I heard her
tag clinking against the ceramic bowl of food out in the kitchen.  Then she
was lapping up water at her fountain.  Then she went nuts (I assume chasing
a fuzzy mousie); I could hear her dashing all over the ...

This time when I got two roses I put the vase on a counter where
Mischief does not go.
But since my counters are crowded, I moved it to the kitchen table when
I was cooking.......and forgot to put it back

The package arrived three nights ago.  DH assembled it (I had the critical
task of reading instructions and holding the flashlight) in less than 15
minutes.  Oscar was already expressing interest in the tree before it was even
assembled; I guess that "imbued with catnip" bit was ...

My parents had to go out to some kind of meeting or what not, out to do things
that parents do. I would have been left all alone if it hadn't been for my Tom
cat and one of the neighbours sitting for me.
The Tom cat looked just like a Scottish wild cat, wide faced, broad and

Just a catchup on my absence from the group. Things have been rough
lately; but are soon to get much better. I am now planning a series of
posts about pets I meet in my job of home health care.
We had spring-like weather for a few weeks and then cold weather

The doorbell rings, and you have an absolute duty to get there first.
So you stand up (you're on the sofa, of course), take a looooooooooong
step from the sofa to the coffee table, hop from the table to the
hassock, step from the hassock to the arm chair, hop to the bookshelf

Holly is out of surgery and in Recovery now, she is doing fine. They put in
the drain and have started antibiotics. Her breathing is improving; they

Thanks for the purrs for Captain's leg. He's only favoring it a tiny, teeny
bit this evening. He's not only putting his weight on it, he's jumping for
toys and chasing/running from Stanley at will. There's still no sign of
swelling, broken skin, or any other problem that I can ...
