Abelard is still barfing more than normal, so I called the vet he saw before. He was not in (his mom had a stroke - little wonder, she must be around 100 years old) but spoke with assistant. She said he probably needs more antibiotics, and I should call tomorrow. So I called the other vet in...

Cap'n Pine Cone took a deep breath. He took in the sea air and then the odor of delicious food. "That smells wonderful Persia." he said, "What are you making?" Persia stopped stirring the immense kettle. She took out the spoon and gingerly took a taste. "It's a surprise, Sir." She wrapped...

Hi A while back I mentioned this place where I've had 2 job interviews and been turned down both times. I also mentioned that there was a third job there that was the one I really wanted and I was hoping for a case of "third time lucky". I've got an interview for it on the 31st so please rev up...

Annie, Jim, and the Cruising cats are stuck at South Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, while the GENESIS is being worked on. The generator is down and is giving them fits. As you know, the generator is what keeps the electrical parts of the ship, including AC, going while the ship is on the move....

http://www.nbc10.com/health/9515335/detail.html This kitten was born on July 12th in Ohio, USA. The vets seem to think he/she will survive (isn't that a rare occurrence for these mutations?). I haven't been able to find any further updates about the kitten since this article was updated on...

It was so hot last night, that ALL NINE CATS willingly followed me into the only air-conditioned room, promptly flopped down on the bed and floor and napped. And so did I. Ginger-lyn Home Pages: http://www.moonsummer.com http://www.angelfire.com/folk/glsummer (homepage & cats) ...

I noticed Oscar licking one of her hind paws a few days ago, but just thought it was kind of cute. Until DH pointed out last night that it's new behavior and might indicate an injury. And that's when I remembered that I'd stepped on her a few days ago. She's not a big fan of having her paws...

First, blanket purrs to anyone who requested them yesterday. Although I was on line for a while, I was off after that, and had to mark everything read. I got a new computer, and once I set it up to receive newsgroups (one of the first things I did G), I couldn't sort through the thousands of...

How many months ago did I order that soft, cushy pyramid shaped bed for Persia? The little stinker *finally* decided to get into it tonight!!! http://community.webshots.com/album/552400110NBaanm Jill

Miss Chloe has been sneezing for the past couple of days and I'm a little concerned. Her eyes are clear, her behavior is normal, she's eating, she's drinking, she's playing, her litterbox habits are normal, but I hear about 3 rapid sneezes every hour or so. Anyone have any ideas? Since she...

I brought Lindy home from TED's office this afternoon. She's very glad to be home, but wants to know where the food is. I usually keep dry food down all the time, but the vet said I shouldn't give her anything to eat until 10:00 this evening. She didn't have to have any more teeth out, but...

Joanne worked for me today and gave me an update. They've sent her home. Her tail is not fractured and she has pooped and peed. She has also eaten a bit. It is more of a crack fracture than crush fracture. She is heavily medicated. Joanne and her four children are taking turns keeping an eye her....

It appears that they have fixed the a/c in my little red car. It cools down very quickly, and gets very cold when it runs. This is better than when the original compressor worked, so I'm thinking we'll be okay, if I can go more than two weeks on this repair (grin). Yay, cold air! Hugs and...

Still no news from the vet but one of the nurses phoned me this morning and said she had eaten last night and again this morning plus she had used the litter tray. I phoned this afternoon and was told that the blood results have come back but the vet hasn't had time yet to have a good look at...

My 'half-wild' foster kitten is a big fraud. Tonight she wanted to cuddle, wanted to have her tummy tickled, decided that she DID want to play with the catnip mouse, and was generally cute as hell. She doesn't hide, and even when she doesn't want to cuddle, she wants to be near me. She can...
