Well, he did it. He got into the paint. Actually, he went and jumped up on his favorite windowsill while the paint was still wet. He got it on his paws, his butt and tail, and made little white pawprints all over. So here's where I need help! How do I safely get the paint off him? Turpentine...

Well we made it to our friends Lori and Dave in Bristol Virginia, and am taking a couple or three days rest here before delivering Mike back to Job Corps and heading back to the chaos that I know has gathered back home. We had to have Rob ambulanced to the hospital in Aurora Colorado, a suburb of...

Hi all, I'm afraid I'll be having newsgroup withdrawal as I'm going to be leaving tomorrow for Sarasota to visit a few days with my mom. I'll be back late on Monday night. I'll probably be online once more later today but otherwise purrs for all who need it; I'll miss you. Also, could I ask...

My son called and told me he's taken a job that requires him to be away three weeks out of every month, out of state, all over the country. I am going to have to take Bosley I guess. I now have 8 cats. EIGHT CATS. Eight cats. I can't believe this. Bosley is not going to integrate well. He's bossy,...

Hi all, A lady named Liz Chase contacted me recently, introducing herself as Janice's best friend. Liz and her husband live with Norma now, in Janice's apartment. (Norma upstairs, Liz & her DH on the 1st floor.) Liz has very kindly allowed me to post the message she sent me to rpca, so that we...

Persia is obviously better! She's been rippin' and rarin' around the house since about 6:00 this morning. She killed another box :) I'm tired just watching her. Question: How can a single cat sound like a thundering herd of elephants? :o) She was bounding all over the place, then demanded to...

I posted two pics of Blizzard, my white RB kitty, on ABPA. I think they were the last pictures I have of her before she went to the Bridge. It looks like I woke her up from taking a nap in my lap. She was such a sweetheart, and an accomplished lap fungus, as well. I still miss her every day...

You've seen the pictures, now read the awful truth about this bad-ass cat... Bandit came to us with an attitude. One day I opened my front door and she just ran past me into my living room. I turned to stare at the little 6-week-old kitten and she stared right back at me with her big green eyes....

I know Harvey likes to go on the deck. I know Harvey likes to bang on the glass to signal he wants to come back in. Still, late last night, while watching the History Channel, I heard 'bangbanganbanga' and I thought one of our neighbors had flipped his lid and was trying to get through the screen...

Decided to put together a 2000 piece jigsaw on a table , instead of on the hardwood floor. Much less space to work with, but easier on my body. My cat of course was curious, and took a few stabs at the pieces as I sorted through them.She knocked a few onto the floor, I chased her off, no problem....

.... over me. Finally got round to going to see Troy last night. Brad Pitt and Eric Bana certainly are eye-candy for the ladies. PHWOAR! ;-) Cheers, helen s (still in need of a cold shower several hours later) --This is an invalid email address to avoid spam--

Some of you have had problems keeping special-diet food separated from kitties with different dietary needs. It can be daunting, can't it? Hobo is diabetic and on a high-protein diet. He has a special prescription DM food, both dry and canned, and fortunately likes it and eats both with gusto. ...

Didn't have too much trouble getting them into the carriers, but Mischief really didn't like the box. She took a dump before I could even get out of my parking space at my apartment, cried the ENTIRE way, and when I took her out, I found she had peed on the towel I put in for her. *sigh* Oh well,...

I can't believe it. Our largest cat is a wimp! True, he is a young'un, only a little over a year old, but he's such a wimp. We discovered a leak in the water heater closed, so we called a plumber. Said plumber came and replaced a shower stem that was leaky. He did a lot of noise, because the old...

Over to alt.binaries.pictures.animals for a post I put there. If you don't get abpa, and want to see something adorable, write me and I will email it.

For those of you who would like to see how much TK has grown, lately, I've updated my yahoo photo album with the best of the new pictures of both Mama and Baby. =o) Follow the Yellow Brick Link! http://f2.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/prince_nigel_h/album?.dir=/11f2 Melissa

A lovely box arrived today, with another inner box as well, bearing some inconsequential goods for me. I hoped the boys, Snowball in particular, would have their customary good time with the treat, but no such luck. In the morning S had been to TED for his booster FeLV etc. injections as he's...

Angelmaine Pericles, red tabby Maine Coon, whose ancestors are US champions, has asked me to wish all his cuzzins in the ol' country the very best for their annual holiday. May there be many extra helpings of treats to mark the occasion. Filensio Snowball, blue bi-colour Ragdoll, who also springs...

Poor mouse. Jean.P. Tigger wrote in message .. .. Poor Cali has been up about 48 hours mousing. She's had the odd nap here and there, but she's looking pretty bleary. She takes her mousing ...

Mostly it is about some name changes: Eenie has become Ernie, it's more of a stand-alone name, besides, I can almost see him saying "You know whaddeye mean, Vern", or making cookies with the other elves ;). I have yet to hear him meow, but I have heard him grunt (maybe it was just a belch - hard...
