I was wondering how Jean Hobbs was getting on after her heart surgery, I haven't seen any updates for a few weeks. I hope by now she's back home and feeling better. -- Adrian (Owned by Snoopy and Bagheera) A House is not a home, without a cat. http://community.webshots.com/user/clowderuk

I got home tonight around 10:30, and as usual, Smudge was waiting for me in front of the apartment building. But just as I was about to go upstairs, she went running off, and no amount of calling her would get her attention. I finally noticed where she was running to - a woman had just pulled up...

I just received this very sad and very urgent message from Carolyn Jordan (bearcreekrescue(at)getgoin(dot)net). If anyone can help in any way.... ________________________________ A friend of mine in Ohio, has a friend near Houston, TX who needs help with some cats. Her letter is below. There...

DH came over to help me feed cats the other day, because I could barely stand. Of course he got into a**hole mode before he left, but before that, I had him hold her so I could get a good look and see what sex she was. Definitely female. Even weirder, her belly is shaved, and the spay scar...

I had someone who wanted to take her if I wanted to rehome her, but after having her here I'm getting too attached, so she's staying. She even seems to have a little PTSD because she cringes sometimes when I go to pet her. I know that isn't always in an indication with cats, though. Sometimes...

The saga of Internet's problems is continuing. His butt went back to normal, so I no longer have to do *that* duty (thank heavens!). I went ahead and agreed to have him tested for hyperthyroidism, since the vet felt nodules on his thyroid glands. Tests came back in the gray area, but he's on...

When Jane-the-Screamer first arrived 9 1/2 years ago, Otis' world came crashing down around him. That's when he first starting peeing all over the house and developed interstitial cystitis. When Sam-the-Crawler came along, that's when we started to let the cats up on the counter just for their...

Grmby and I do the same work and she was awarded manager of the year this last weekend at our annual fall conference!!! Lee

He came in this morning all damp from the grass, crawled into my lap and rolled over onto his back. That's when I saw and smelled the mess. No idea what kind of poop it was - horse? dog? kitty? - but it was all over his belly. So into the bathroom we went. I put about 3" of warm water in the tub,...

Ok the vet has told me that it is best to limit Rumble to one brand of food since changing his food around can of course change his sugar level. Rumble is a finicky cat real finicky when it comes to his food. I am going to change him to one brand of course which is the best one to do it with...

I live in north central California. And this time of year we are where all the birds that flew south for the winter are hanging out. I know most of the local year round and summer birds, but now I see birds almost daily that I can't identify. A few weeks ago I passed swans resting in flooded...

I was swabbing out Abelard's ears a while ago when Billy got up on the sofa next to us to watch. As soon as Abelard was finished, Billy pushed his way in and *asked* me to swab out his ears (which didn't need to be swabbed at all) just for the *pleasure* of it. But this was just the beginning...

After seeing and listening to Jill's post with the site of Weird Al's (don't ask me to spell his last name, please) ebay song, I couldn't take it anymore and sent him a combination question and thank you letter. As most of you know his concert was one of the few bright lights in a terrifying and...

I have a friend whose 13-year-old kitty, Tyger, is at the vet. They are waiting to hear what's going on, and fear that they may need to put Tyger to sleep. She is asking for purrs and prayers to help them while waiting, and to help them make the best decision for Tyger. Thank you all so...
