This morning Dennis and I were lying in bed and Vino was between us.
I reached out and petted...Dennis!  I was running my fingers through
his hair and scratching his head.  After less than a minute of this,

This time it is me rather than Rusty who needs purrs.
My eyes have been bothering me. Yesterday they started watering.
I don't know whether its from allergy or lack of sleep, or eye strain
from too much computer use.

Has anyone heard of the above diet book?
I have been researching "holistic" things I could do that might help me with
my fibromyalgia.  Happens that this guy was on "Oprah" on a show about the
new anti-aging technology.  He claims that the signs of aging are caused buy

.....insist on making silly noises to us cats?  It's quite funny but at
the same time humiliating to hear such primative baby talk.
*sigh* If only hoomins could possess the higher intelligence to

That Omar!  He knew something was up this morning; it was time for me to
take him in for his bloodwork again and I blew it....I knew I should've
blocked the doors off to our bedroom but he got that look in his eye before

Tonight these guys showed up to spend the night because they missed a
ferry.  They had 3 big dogs with them, and I said, let them out to say
hello to Holly, because Holly and I know these dogs.  But Tweaker had
never met them.

Otis has been a real PITA lately, as I've posted.  The thing is that he's
been licking his lips a lot again and I suspect that he might have some pain
in his mouth.  If you all recall, he had that condition where he gets those

Ms. Willow smacked down a cat at least twice her size.  This is according to
reports from my dad who she is staying with until tomorrow, when she comes

yummiest tummy?"
My tummy is NOT yummy.  It is soft and furry, but NO ONE is allowed to
touch it.  Imp and I both agree on this.  Tummies are meant to be

I always thought of cats as being totally aware of their surroundings,
even when asleep.  Well, this morning Maryweather was meatloafing on
the cat shelf at the north kitchen window - perhaps she was planing
her next hunt, but whatever, she was totally imersed in her own
