Well it's Sunday, May 8th, and we will be sailing in a week.  The gang
plank is down and the perishable stores will be loaded by Wednesday.
The crew members are doing all they can to batten down their places on

I think the machinery here is on it's last chip, so to speak. The screen's
losing its ability to do red, but then it is three years older than dirt. I
haven't been here in a good week or so because Louie and I have been
spending our evenings trying to get a new one built. (yes, ...

Ok, so one day I want some grass, right?  So I ask Mom an' Dad if I can
have some.  Except there's no answer cause they're not home.  And I
really want grass.  So I jump onto the kitchen table and use it as a
runway to reach the BIIIIG high shelf where Mom keeps the catgrass.  So

Does anyone else"s cat do this?
I'm always seeing Stosh cleaning Brandy, usually immediately before or after
a wrasslin match. He'll try with the other ladies, but Roxie will run and
Odessa will smack him and cuss him out. (Cusses like a sailor, that one. I

I was feeling awfully sentimental today so I thought I would post the
stories of how Simba and Pepper came to own me.
After graduating college two years ago I moved to Kentucky with DH and
decided I needed a pet to spoil.  A former roommate of mina had a cat,

I am so tired of hearing Kitten On The Keys.  Somehow Stinky and his
buddies transported his piano over to the mouser and set it up in the
galley, which is also used as a living space when we're not eating.

How do I get my jealous dog Eddie to stop snapping at the new, tiny
kitten Buffy?
Buffy just wants love and cuddles and for the big hairy things not to
intefere with her busy schedule of poinging.

Hey, remember back in mid-March when I wrote about one of the
neighborhood cats who had apparently had her babies. I had kind of
hoped she would use one of my carriers which I fixed up with towels
and had on the patio, but she had them somewhere across the street,

I am incredibly relieved! She's home safe and sound. She was picked up by
the city animal control from an address three doors up the street from me,
and it must have happened very shortly after she made her escape. I could
have saved myself an anxious weekend if I'd called Friday ...

Very beautiful and detailed Cat Shirts
Cat Shirts made from 100% cotton and are hand-dyed, high quality
garments. All shirt designs are made from water-based inks. The
printing process gives these t-shirts a soft feel; unlike the heavy

I am so stressed out it's not funny. I had a job interview with the
Environment Agency on Thursday last week, and the interview was an hour
long rather than 40 minutes, which everyone said was a good sign. At
the interview, the guy said he'd let me know in the next few days. It's

I was in Pets-at-home (a large pet store like Petco) earlier. I decided
to buy some catnip for the owners.
I have never given catnip to Cleo, and I had no idea what her reaction
would be. As I sprinkled it on the carpet, Pandora and Tiger were

I put out fliers this afternoon and his owners called for him (they live
right behind us, catty-cornered).  I gave them all the print-outs from the

their pets (but given his flea-ridden condition, I don't ...
