Mischief

So I lost my job last friday and spend the next day updating and email

Coyote Scare by
Will in New Haven
I was bringing the dogs out for their walk the other morning and it
was not quite dawn and raining, not great visibility. However, the
dogs alerted me that something was going on. Samantha, the Shi Tzu
puppy, was barking in a hostile manner that I have seldom heard from
her before and Bear, the...

OT - Facebook Problem by
CatNipped[_4_]
I don't know if it's because Ben had to rebuild my computer and went from
IE7 to IE8, but since them all my "log in" pages keep logging me out like
every 5 minutes. I have to keep logging in and logging in and it's a PITA.
Has anyone else had this problem and solved it?

OT - Distraction? by
CatNipped[_4_]
When you are unbelievably bored, or in a situation you hate and can't
stand to live through (being a bit exaggerated here), what do you do for
distraction? Solitaire, crossword puzzles, other games? Day dreams,
bad TV sitcoms? I'm really in need of ideas.

Hugs,

Boyfie notices a spider by
Christina Websell
running across my carpet. He gets into kill mode and chases it but it
disappears under my computer desk.
Next day it appears on the wall, too far up for him to get it. He watches
it disappearing into the folds of my curtains and knows he just has to wait
until it comes out.
I have a horror of...

Where do your owners sleep? by
jmcquown[_2_]
95% of the time Persia sleeps with me *at night*. In the mornings after
breakfast she joins me in the living room, where the computer is. She
curls up in the sunshine but is always in a position to watch anything
interesting out the window. When the sunny spots gradually disappear,
as they...

Looks like a Thyroidectomy by
jmcquown[_2_]
The vet is checking into other medication options, but it looks like Persia
is going to have part (if not all) of her thyroid removed. She's been doing
well but she's allergic to the Methimazole. The vet is going to call me
later this afternoon. Looks like I'll be putting my pretty grey baby...

Four kittens to TED Monday by
Pat[_4_]
Guinivere, Arthur, Johnny and Joey are going to be de-sexed in the morning.
As their foster meowmie I am worried, of course. I think Dave is, too.
We are using a new (to us) vet who kind of far away (40 miles), because her
fees are lower. She has a good reputation, but is mainly a large animal...

TED's verdict on Kitty Farmcat this afternoon. by
Christina Websell
She did not maintain the slight improvement I saw which caused me to cancel
her appointment last week. I said I would give her over the weekend and she
how she went.
She hardly ate on Sunday, no matter what lovely food was provided. Monday
morning she ate nothing, Monday after work I phoned...

Cat Sitting (again) by
jmcquown[_2_]
Last time the neighbor asked me to cat-sit I wound up in the hospital!
Let's hope that doesn't happen this time.
I'll be making sure Schwartzy and Fedders are fed and watered and clean
their litterbox. They are indoor/outdoor cats but she particularly said she
needs me to make sure Schwartzy...

OT Economics by
ScratchMonkey
Being a math geek, I found this site really impressive with all the charts
and explanations of the current crises:
http://www.calculatedriskblog.com/
It seems to have a lot more useful info than the fluff I see in the paper
and certainly much better than TV coverage.

Need ideas for cat toys by
jmcquown[_2_]
I'm trying to keep Persia active. Keep in mind there is no PetCo or
PetSmart store within 50 miles of here. I love her but I'm not driving over
100 miles (to/from) just to buy cat toys. So I'm shopping online.
She loves the little toy mousies I get from Walgreen's (that's only 12 miles
away...

OT. Frances Drake has died by

My lovely Muscovy duck has passed away unexpectedly.
When I went to put him away safely at night the other day he did not race me
in for his chopped apples and bits of bread which he loves. I had to
encourage him into his hut.
The following morning he was not keen to come out, but he did and...

Nutritional remedy for Abelard by
Pat[_4_]
Since my last post about Abelard having raw skin and eating dirt, he's been
getting 1/2 t. of powdered kelp twice a day with his meals (he only eats
soft food, since he has very few teeth). There's been great improvement.
I got a bit worried when Sherry mentioned infectious anemia, so I...

H1N1 by
Cheryl[_5_]
I just thought I'd start a thread without 'pig' in the subject.
Actually, we don't tend to call it 'pig flu' here, we call it 'swine
flu' (when we don't say H1N1). I don't know why the difference, but I
hadn't seen the 'pig flu' name until the last thread.
Anyway, I know perfectly well you...

My nasty neighbours by
Christina Websell
Those of the wall and drop kerb disagreements seem to have disappeared over
the last few days. There are always five cars there. Zilch. No cars.
I suspect they have gone to India for a while (I hope so) or maybe their
house has been repossessed (which would be even better) but I don't think...
