There was a tapeworm segment (still alive) in Eli's (black) fur, so it was
easy to see. So the whole clowder is getting Drontal shortly. I can't bear
the thought of infested cats! I hope eliminating the worms makes them all
feel better and eat less.

I know this is a terribly minor problem so I feel a bit guilty asking
about it... but the power of the purr is strong and I could use it!
My eye has suddenly got sore and red this afternoon... there's nothing
visible in it and I can see just fine, but it hurts! Can I please have

Lilys latest model shot. ;o)

HRFL is off to TED for an all day physical tomorrow (Tues).
Please could he have some purrs that things aren't too serious? He's
been *OFF* and lethargic for the last couple of weeks, and so TED and I
have decided to do a full physical on him, starting with an ultrasound

Hello...
I know it's been a long time since I posted. Since I'm a catless
catslave I haven't had much to post about, but I'm still reading the
group every day and purring along with everyone else, even though I

Both Dennis and I went in this morning to visit Vino.  We were there for
over 2 hours.  He visibly perked up to see us.  Also, we took him into a
quieter back room and took his e-collar off, so he liked that.  He stood
up and "peed" and we saw a bunch of little clumps moving down ...

Sorry to miss you Sunday - the PC threw a sh*t fit and I couldn't get
online.
Maybe we can try in the week?

Cleo has not been using her box.
We thought we smelled urine in the basement in the past but could never find
it. About six weeks ago we finally discovered that she had been using a sofa
in the basement for her litterbox.  We cleaned it with Nature's Miracle and

This morning I picked Tiger up from the vets.  His mats were all shaved
off and now he looks naked.  All his beautiful hair is gone.  He weighed
in at 22.3 pounds but he doesn't look fat in this picture.

had a great time (understatement)
Dropped the felines off at the boarding cattery the day before we left, and
that evening Nathan did a new PB for a 10-mile time trial, of 22 mins 15
seconds. So we left for France with him on a high.

Today, Dennis went to the vet and visited with Vino again while I was at
work.  He stayed with him for 2 hours again.  Unfortunately, Vino's IV
had come out of the vein at some point during the night (nobody is there
24 hours, they have someone coming in every 4 hours at night) ...

Wednesday night the bitties show up, and I agonize that my digital
camera is broken.  I'm forced to take pictures with my phone, send them
to my roomate, who access them on her computer and then sends them to
my email.

We let them have one last romp together then put Trouble, the black and
white bitty into the carrier.
His brother, Chaos is looking a little confused.  I've always wondered
how kitten cope with being raised together with their brothers and

I looked in my Palm Pilot and saw that "Cats shot" was in there for
yesterday!  Luckily, TED didn't take that literally ;-)  Fred took the boys
in and I missed their annual check up for the first time in 10 years.  I
gather that they were marvellously well behaved.

I've added some pictures of Rosie and some of Big Tabby sunbathing to
my cat album.
