My cat has a habit of jumping off of our steps in the middle of the
night scaring you to the point that you think someone is breaking into
the house.

The makeup brush, which had been Odessa's favorite toy when she was
sequestered after her hospitalization, is nowhere to be found. Louie and I
have made a disaster of the house looking for it. Two days before she left us
I dropped it into a box of Louie's undershorts fresh from the ...

I was there for three days and nights.  Came home on Friday.  Persia was
happy to have me back full time :)
Yesterday morning he called, he needs his dressing changed.  I drive 25
miles to his house and our friend of 35 years is sitting there with him

I wasn't feeling so good during the weekend, and I spent most of
Saturday and Sunday sleeping. Caliban was the sweetest little nurse
kitty. He seemed really worried. He would jump onto the bed looking
really anxious, walk up to my face, and press his nose to my mouth while

Hello together,
Blacky sais thank you for all the purrs on his behalf.
He is back home since monday, eating a bit more. The infusions given
to him at the animals hospitals seem to have helped a bit.

Shmogg is not well.
The vet said without doing various tests, she couldn't say for sure wether
it was diabetes or kidney failure, but by the symptoms (forever drinking,
peeing innappropriately, always hungry, loss of weight and energy, howling)

...and left changeling kittehs.
My inlaws are visiting for two weeks.
Halifax-Kumani was very timid of new people.  They might be horrible
VETS, and VETS as we know are awful people who hold down little

My friend has two female ferals that she and her roommate rescued
quite a few years ago. They are spayed. Then her roommate (aka The
Idiot) rescued another kitten(male) from his workplace and brought him
home.  This Idiot being what he is, he continues to refuse to get the

I'm not sure if it was me or Yowie that started this, I lit a candle and
when I checked I saw Vicky had lit one too.

I got up a little too early to suit Stinky, and went out for my walk.  While
I was gone, my mom tells me that he reported straight to her and gave quite
a speech.
Stinky is very much my cat, although he likes my mom, and when I'm home, he

When we moved into the house in Newton, I really didn't want to have to
haul a heavy, large box spring up a narrow flight of stairs so we've got
our mattress directly on the bedroom floor. When we first moved in we
recognized that kitties with disturbed routines sometimes act-out by

One vet I went to when my dog Sampson was still with me had pamphlets about
purchasing pet insurance.  He was already 13 at that point and I'd just
moved.  The vet said nope, we don't take pet insurance.
Then Persia came along, demanding I let her inside.  She was at least 2,

Was at the doctor's office today (next month they are going to do a
full physical. . . ACK) and had three rewritten prescriptions that we
had filled at Womack Army Medical Center (yess the place that Wamcee
is named after).  The rule is that one fills out information on

Yowie's story about Shmogg sliding on a mat toward the wall and
hitting the wall hard with his head reminds me of a funny Dave Barry
column I read quite a few years ago, about a d-pet that did approximately
the same kind of thing. I didn't want to hijack Yowie's thread, which
