Odessa definitely has got it in for me. This morning she horked up a loogie
on my boob that was big enough to sweep away a semi. The attempts to clear
her poor little throat, combined with the act of picking her up, dosing her

As you know, cats that roam freely outdoors are exposed to the dangers
of predators, cars, lawn fertilizers, etc.  However, cats can enjoy
the sights and sounds of the outdoors in safety if they are given
access to an outdoor enclosure.

We celebrate purrdays, annipurrseries, and other celebrations on the
first Monday in September, AKA Labor Day.  I can remember Labor Day.
Most of the time my brain is a LITTLE fuzzy and I have more memory
problems with less excuse than my DH.

Here's a cat anecdote that's taking place in Alaska.  I'm not sure if

@ss rain outside.  Heather calls me on the phone and say's "Mom, I

She's been doing this for a while now and I wonder if anybody else's
cat does it. I have an old hairbrush that I used to brush Woodgie with
when she was a little kitten and had first come to our house. I've
since gotten two "cat" brushes. That's ok (more or less) with her, but

Does anyone know where Christy Burelle is? (I think that is how her
last name is spelled) I would like to know because I am wondering how
Tucker and the gang are doing.

Most of you will have read of the unfortunate duty that Julie had
to perform. Might I suggest that someone else volunteers to be
the keeper of the card list? GaDragonfly must have a lot of other
matters to deal with right now.

I cooked myself a small turkey yesterday so I could eat it cold through the
week.  I made myself a particularly nummy sandwich this evening-- turkey

Dot usually likes to have some elevation in her napping spots, so
you'll find her on a shelf, or at least a chair.  Or right now, on my
lap with her cheek resting against my belly. :)
Dot doesn't hide anymore.  She's even taken up Betty's old habit of

everyone up for doing cards again this year?  I don't see any reason I
