Why should last night have been any different?  Why should we *ever* get to
sleep through the night?  It's either a child or a cat but someone wakes us
up at least once.
3 AM today, Otis was curled up in my arms and I woke up because he was

I woke up in the middle of the night last night. It wasn't the cats;
they were snoozing peacefully by my legs. They were spooning, with
Frank's arm around Nikki. Aww! As I peered at them through the dusk, I
saw that Nikki's head was resting on something light-coloured. I reached

I've told Buster that he needs to stay inside this week, while he
finishes his course of Clavamox. Buster has decided that he must take
revenge for my not letting him go out this week.
Thursday, after a long, tiring day, I crawl into the apartment,

I've finally scanned nine recent pictures of my four-footed family, and
uploaded them to my Yahoo photo album.

The ninth picture I  must explain is a snapshot taken of my birthday cake

Ever since IBKFergus has made herself at home here, my bed has suffered a
terrible infestation of bedmice. I"ve asked Shmogg if the bedmice were here
before IBKFergus turned up, and why he doesn't try to exterminate the pests
himself, because I know he's a much better hunter than ...

I saw this at Petco today:

It's a cool idea, except I wish they made it bigger. Even my girls would not
fit in that little box, but I love the "bookshelf" concept. I'm going to try

You know, I'm sitting here grading papers and I just find it bizarre when I
run across a student who talks about the mosques and architecture around
them. Often in class, we have students actively stationed in Iraq and I just
have to marvel that technology allows them to take a ...

OK, when I get upset I clean.  When I get *VERY* upset I start stripping
cabinet and floors, waxing, cleaning out closets.  I've been going at it for
about 10 hours now - cleaning and crying, crying and cleaning.  It's so
frustrating because I don't know what to do - I don't think ...

Put the new dishwasher on before going to bed and found the  kitchen
floor covered with water this morning - it is the second time it has
done this and is still under guarantee, grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
What has this to do with Bonnie you might ask.   She was asleep in the

My name is Jeff, and I am the person who showed Bahadur
that each cat is an individual and needs to be loved.
I have a message from her to her friends--and anyone
else who cares to read it--on this newsgroup.  Though

Here are some pictures of the second burn on Bandit's back (gross warning).
It looks worse than this morning when the hair fell out.  I don't know if I
made it worse by washing the Silvadine off twice - I decided to leave it
alone until I can get to the vet, now I don't know if I ...

Find it very hard to keep up with everyone here so tend to just lurk
silently and read with great interest!  But if anyone is interested you
can see pictures of my beautiful white cat Kiwi at

I just cleaned the litter box and I found a couple of soft, smelly
deposits.  Unfortunately I'm pretty sure it's from Mischief, but I
can't be one hundred percent certain.
I'm not sure what to do.  I could try to keep the cats separate for a

I have studied the health plans to the best of my limited ability.
Insurance is hard to understand, anyway; especially if you don't have
someone there to ask copious questions.
My company offers Cigna and Kaiser. When Open Enrollment comes again

Walked down to the kitchen for another cup of tea
and peeked into the living room while the water heated.
Cheeky was on the back of the couch, where I noticed her about an hour ago,
dozing. Buddha was just below her on the seat of the couch, wide awake and
