In the night a bigger cat met my neighbor's -- the one he trained to pump his brain into my rosebed. Fur flew and ugly low tone meows were heard. Next day the back of the neighbor's cat was badly mauled. They rushed him to a vet: Two surgeons operated

Today is my 9th anniversary with my Meowmie. I also turn 10 this month. Meowmie said it is a BIG milestone. Many times she wondered whether I can make it to my 10th purrsday as I had a history of FUS. But here I am, still kicking. I didn't get any present from Meowmie. She said she already spent...

This afternoon I was napping on a sunny window sill on my hammock when Meowmie grabbed me and stuffed me in the carrier. Right away I know we must be going to TED. Sure enough, we went outside. But instead of waiting for the metal monster in the lobby, Meowmie took me to a bus stop and put me on a...

Meowmie is starving me on purpose. This morning I waited forever for my breakfast, only to get 2 teaspoons of my canned fud mixed with water. Meowmie said my stool was too soft to her liking, so she is giving me a fast. Fast? I can't run fast if I am starved. I weigh only around 8lb, so by no...

Meowmie doesn't pat me, won't let me sit on her lap, won't even let me go near her. She rubbed cream on my ears and bathed me with this pink stuff. She stopped forcing pills down my throat, but had the vaccum monster roaring all the time. My room smelled like bleach. Worst of all, she dragged me...

This morning I was taking a nap after breafast. Next thing I know Meowmie grapped me and locked us in the barfroom. She used a wash cloth to give me a sponge bath with that Nizarol shampoo. This time she didn't just bath my ears, but my head and neck as well. She kept putting the wet washcloth on...

I used to sit on Meowmie and we both like it. But these days Meowmie won't let me do that anymore. Yesterday I jumped on her lap while she was on the computer. She said No and put me down on the floor. Said we both have ringworm and should avoid contact to reinfect each other. She even wore gloves...

Meomie just bathed my head with this pink shampoo that TED told her to use for ringworm. She hasn't dare to try to bath my whole body yet. I have sharp claws and teeth. Now I am walking around with a soggy head. At least the sun is out. I hate the hair dryer. TED said I had to go through this...

Even though Chico is TED's cat, I would like to ask you to purr for him. I heard he needs another eye surgery as he has a cyst behind his eyes. He already had eye surgery before. He kept me company while I was in jail at TED. He is a senior white Himalyan and is getting more fluffy since the last...

I have an upset tummy and Meowmie said we are going to TED in an hour. She already bagged up my 'floor sample' and litterbox sample to take to TED. She emptied my litter box to collect pee for TED. But I don't feel the need to pee. Hope TED won't stick a tube under my tail to steal my pee. I hate...

Any of you who have slaves that like opera? My Meowmie just decided to give opera a try. She is playing some opera CDs. When the singer hit the high notes, I want to twitch my ears. Good thing I can sleep through anything. Rusty

Just overheard Meowmie talking on the phone. She is going to drag me to TED on Monday for needles. shudder Is there any place I can telport over to hide so Meowmie can't find me on Monday? Help anyone? -- Rusty
