So ... I get home from work one evening ... I'm sitting on the couch

television news. I feel a 'tap' on my shoulder.
It's Cosmo, and I can feel the couch vibrating from his very deep

The abscess is flaring up again... I can't get an appointment with the

"meowma?"  I've been up too early for too long.  Already fed her, so
apparently now it's time to go back to the big warm sleeping place and
snuggle with her.  'Tap tap' and big eyes... she doesn't care what day it
is, Thanksgiving or not... come back and snuggle!  I'm such a slave.. ...

The other night DP was on call in the hospital overnight and I flicked
on the alarm clock without looking what time it was set to.  It was set
to 6 am, ugh.  Well, I didn't have to be up for another two hours so I
was going to go back to sleep...

Paulette has just forwarded me some of the messages that I messed.
My sincere condolences and sympathy to those who have lost their dear cats,
and a special hug to Fi for the loss of her dear husband.  That is never
easy, even when you know it is coming.

It has long been a tradition in my family to share a recipe that will

recipe with my "Cat Family". I hope that others here will share their
special recipe too!

I've mentioned before about my brother and my mom are both dog folks, and
have Springer Spaniels that are at least as spoiled as my kitties. My mom
has become especially close to her dog, Cali. Mom's chemo has been very
