Even after her second "spaying", Shadow still caterwails all night. This is
*not* making her a popular cat with Joel. She also flatly refuses to use the
litterboxes, much preferring the kitchen - right at the place where you'd
stand when working at the sink. This does exactly ...

Apparantly there has only been 19 posts to RPCA since 8am (my time). Usually
there's over 100 - is there's something wrong with NIN?

Jill,
I tried to send you an e-mail but it was blocked by your ISP for 'abuse'.
Any way around it?

I saw Jim yesterday so I could ask about Benj.
He's not crossed the Bridge yet after seeming to go downhill for a
couple of days when he came back from the vets he perked up a lot. The
apetite stimulant the vet gave him seems to kick started his apetite-

I call her, "Poohbee"...  She's my senior member in this household.  She'll
be 15 in about a week or so.  I have noticed lately that the litter boxes
have HUGE pee clumps in them.  At first I thought it was two or three cats
peeing in the same spot, but it's not.  It's just Pooh. ...

As you know, Shadow is an abandoned cat.
I'm taking her to TED tomorrow (and abusing the credit card) because her
night time opera is too much for any of us to take, and her
passive/agressive thing is confusing Suki no end (ie, she yowls for a

Wandering around Youtube I stumbled on a lot of videos with cats
confronting deer. Some of them were like 'Whoa! Huge mousie!', others
tried to make friends, but this must be the most bizarre one. I don't
know what the other cats are doing there, maybe waiting for their spa

On this cat slave's knee.

I'm taking some time off to deal with some issues that I don't want to talk
about here, but please know, I will be lighting some candles, praying and
sending love hugs purrs and bright blessings to all.
You're free to e-mail me if you'd like.

I got to thinking of Biskit (I don't know why) and wondered how she is.
I remember the sad bedraggled little thing you dragged out from under a
car. It's so nice to see how they bloom with a little TLC. We have that
'before' and 'after' pictorial evidence on kili's Miss Pua and ...

I've been out of town on business, so I've been unable to read much of
the group all week. Purrs to all in need, specially Pat and Abelard, I
heard they needed extra purrs.
Now for the selfish part, Tom emailed me this morning saying that the

While I'm here, may I ask that you add Hobbes to your purr list.  Last
night I looked at him and he looked snarly with one side of his lip
raised up.  When I finally got a good look (holding down a 23 lb cat
isn't easy), I discovered that his left bottom fang is possibly

I called Ginger-lynn earlier this evening to leave a message that I
was thinking of her and believe it or not she returned my call a few
minutes ago.  Unfortunately I wasn't near the phone so I didn't get to
talk to her but she left a groggy message.  She made it through her

Four years ago, today,  a lovely young stripey lady  AKA "The Kitty
With the Surprise Inside" moved in with me, even though she was
dubious about the benefits of  having me for her hoomin. WHich is to
say, she complained all the way home from the shelter in the car,

Remember the two stripey kittens we had last summer?
Sissy's new name is Mobic (Mobie)....she is now the only cat in the
household,
her new owner is a middleaged nurse. (Hence the name. I think it's
