I have a 6 year old indoor neutered male.  Whenever I go away - for an
hour or two even - and come home, he leaves his little puff ball by
the door.  What does this mean???  Is this like the outside kitties do
with real mice???

I made this video and showed it to a few friends, and they thought it
was hilarious, so I figured I'd share it with all of you.
I trim Lynxie's claws before he gets "sharpies" as I call them, and
have been doing this since kittenhood. Doing this has several

Let's see, in our 31 years together, we've been owned by
20 cats, and only one had a litter!
Hmmm, let's see if I can remember them all..
Murphy, Maxwell, Phoebe, Foozle, Capt. Nemo, Howard, Wendall, .

At 1.15 this morning a car alarm went off for 10 minutes and we called
the person concerned a lot of rude names. Sarsi hated it, she got out
of bed and let us know in no uncertain terms that she has sensitive
hearing!

For the first time in maybe 4 years or so, instead of being woken up by the
sounds of Cary stirring, I was woken up by paws on my shoulder and a loud "I
want breakfast" meow.
It was 6:42 am, approximately 17 minutes before The Yowlet usually wakes me

Pets can have very beneficial effects on their owners. They're
stimulating, entertaining, and can even improve the general health and

stress. As humans, we often seek companionship and we find that easily

We talked about my Dad. He's slowly improving.
I asked about Four: He's moving around more, but seems happy to be
there, and doesn't want out. His wound is healing fast. She's very
busy and is reading RPCA but too tired to post.

As I learned from Cat Fancy Magazine, and my vet, improper dental hygiene
can lead to a Cat getting kidney problems.  You might want to check your
local Vet and get some toothpaste they have there, about $12 a tube, last
time I bought some, and a finger toothbrush, and brush your ...

I've just been out to feed Shadow, I was giving him some scritches and I
heard him purr for the first time. He's so much more relaxed now, I'm sure
he's benefited so much from being neutered.

They are getting a tiny bit braver each week.  It is slow going but kind of
fun.  They are so sweet with each other; it is like they can't even get mad
at each other when they try.  They have their own personalities,
nonetheless.  Frank will touch his nose to my entended finger ...

Francesca reporting. Today, Meowmy's Meowmy came over and she and
Meowmy did a lot of what Meowmy calls Hows Werk. Grand-Meowmy sat in
Meowmy's chare for a while furst, so of course, I had to check her
out. She's not bad at ear scritching and stroking me, altho not as

Watch out, guys.  This is the real thing!
I received a message today warning about a virus distributed when someone
opens a "postcard" that supposedly was sent by a friend.  I just checked
this out on snopes.com.  The virus is real, and it's destructive.
