Yeah   only 30 more to go so they say

Dear rpca folks,
please look gently upon me, I who may seem to be an interloper and I guess
am properly called a "lurker" (although I have posted just a bit here and
there).

I am sequestering myself in the computer room with La Madame and a nice
can of H*m flavored cat food. She's eating quite nicely, Bast be
praised. First time in days I've seen her get at anything with any kind
of real gusto.

Thanks for the purrs and other good vibrations.
I just got of the phone with Jim on Genesis in Savannah, Georgia.
The storm passed with about 5 inches of rain (over 2 days) and a lot of wind

When Brandy had her dental surgery last year, she bounced quite nicely
back, including appetite. Now Roxie has an appetite, but turns her nose
up at whatever we set down. She'll come running for chow and go to her
favorite place (on the stairs) and investigate her dinner, but hasn't

Hi my name is Rosie and I'm staying with meowmie Shirley until I find
a forever home. You're probably thinking why someone as sweet a I am

Chloe, lately, has been over-grooming herself to the point her nipples are

Monday, Jim and I had a most enjoyable lunch with Julie Cook.
We were almost within waving distance a couple of weeks earlier.  She was on
Amelia Island when we passed by on Genesis in the ICW. But, she was on the
other side of the island.

Looks like this new law might just work.  I'm interested that the news
story named the man.

One of the many traditions/routines I have with the cats features Basho,
my morning paper and a window-sill cat bed/hammock. Every morning while
I read the paper, Basho likes to come by, get a quick scritch and then

Just saw a piece on the local news. A house caught fire. They said the
people got out. They were interviewing a VERY handsome fire fighter and
