Hi :)
Been reading this group for years and really enjoy it. I need some advice on
taming feral kittens. Have a pretty serious feral cat situation in my
neighborhood. I've decided to do something about it. We've started catching

Rascal died today. There was no warning. We had had him for eleven
years. We adopted him as a young adult, so don't know his real age.
The vet said she would guess more like 15.
He was a short-haired tuxedo cat with a coat as sleek as seal skin.

For the few of you, 2 or 3, who care or are interested (and aren't being
distracted by troll baiting or flame wars), I thought I'd let you know that
Sammy went through her procedure well.  I ran and got her as soon as they
called and told me she was OK (and thereby missed the ...

Baby Abigail has established a routine of accompanying me when I clean
litter boxes. Inspecting twelve boxes is quite a chore for a tiny
kitten with a limited attention span, but she does a great job.
She knows to start following me when I pick up a covered pail that

I don't remember anybody posting a link to this one.  Rat steals

I caught Miss Emily sleeping, so I grabbed the camera. The dirty look
is both for me and for Little Boy who is out of sight and trying to
grab her beautiful tail:

I put out the leftover catfood tonight, and Meow came to the door. I
haven't seen him in a month! And not often at all since he was
adopted.
His coat is clean and glossy, there are no leaves or burrs stuck to

I have sheer drapes across my back living room wall.  I open them when I get
up in the morning and Persia watches the birds and squirrels.  Lately Persia
has decided she likes to hide in the corner behind them.  All you can see is
her grey face poking out from what looks like a ...

I don't know if the term "kharzi" is used outside of the UK but it's
vulgar slang for the porcelain throne-  it's Sarsi when I'm on it that
cracks me up.
Unless she's asleep or the door is closed as soon as I sit down I hear

There appears to be a small possum living in our carport (which is
enclosed except for a normal sized door). It's not the first one I've
seen out there but it's by far the smallest. I heard this one before
seeing it. It disappeared under piles of junk. I did not see it leave

At first I thought she was sick.  She wouldn't eat her Wellness chicken.
I offered some dry Innova which she did eat.  I don't know if there was
something wrong with the Wellness but Tiger is eating it (but he will

find the thread, so I don't know for sure who started it.  Anyway, I want to
thank whoever it was.  I had signed up to give a speech at my Toastmasters
club on Thursday evening, and as of Wednesday, I ...
