So I woke up a few hours before normal out of a crazy dream. I was still eighty percent asleep and I didn't want to fall back asleep because I knew the crazy dream would just continue. Suddenly, there is Harvey, being all purry and loveable. -Being- eighty percent asleep I thought he maybe sensed...

Never belittle the comfort offered by a cat - she has no words, but by small touchings, and buttings and leanings, she shows her love for you - and tries to distract you from your sorrow. - Pam Brown Thank you for all your kind words and purrs; I'm back at work, and have managed to 'procure'...

....while it is still on my foot! I have my feet up on a footrest (actually the CPU of an old Mac, LOL), and Roxy suddenly seems fascinated by the smell and taste of the bottom of my foot. It's a very weird feeling to be licked by a cat through a sock. I wonder what I stepped in...? Joyce

Hi Helen, I never got your email with your phone number, don't know what happened. But we're in Perth now (YAY!!!) and got a cell phone #, so if you want, you can call me at 041 036 8780 or email me at badwilson at yahoo dot com. Dennis is writing the first exam tomorrow afternoon, so get all...

I'm *not* complaining, I love it! Granted, Persia has always been a love-bug. But since I got her back from the vet on 6/25 after her bladder surgery (and my trip out of town), she's been especially clingy and lovey. She's been waking me up promptly at 6 AM every morning (when did she learn to...

Some people said things, and then:- Mark Edwards added Fluffy always steps back about three more feet when I come out. If I try to sweet talk him, he pays close attention, but all attempts to show him that my hand is empty, and that I am a nice person, make him wary. So I always end up telling...

Well Jake did his best yesterday to get even with Charlie for his fondness for classic fireworks and all the stuff he's blown up over the years. (Past years, we didn't set off any fireworks ourselves this year) Charlie went out about 10 am to run some errands and when he got back asked where Jake...

I was killing time this morning, and happened across this cute little gif of a kitten napping in a strange place http://www.stat.purdue.edu/people/chong/img/cat.hammock.gif -- Steve Touchstone, faithful servant of Sammy, Little Bit and Rocky Home Page:...

will my sig show up this time? or will it continue to be missing in action for unknown reasons?

Last week I had a bad cold. I feel much better now but my youngest indoor only cat is now sneezing and doing little kitty coughs. So far Psycho, my oldest, hasn't gotten the cold yet. But did I give the cat my cold? Is this possible? Thanks. Bob -- Somewhere in Texas a village is missing it's...

In the aftermath of the tornadoes in Nebraska, Iowa and Ohio (purrs to all), I am reminded of one early morning a couple of years ago. I live on the outskirts of Memphis, TN. I had *no* idea the new tornado sirens talked. I woke up one morning around 3:00 AM to a raging wind and major storm. ...

Here's a local story (RealMedia video) about a cat that accidentally got Fed-Ex'ed by a woman who owns 12 cats. They show various shots of her cats lounging around the house, and they're very cute. It's not clear in the video which cat is the actual cat in question, because they were too busy...

Hi guys: I took these pics at 10 AM so we're only a few hours into it. It's not going to stay long but it sure is pretty so far - only a few hours into the snow too! A couple pics in there of a few days ago when it was hot and green too. Even one cat related picture! Enjoy! Susan M

This has nothing to do with the mouse the other day. I let my cats out on the balcony. I keep an ear out and if they start to make any noise I bring them in. Years ago Peepers discovered he could get on a couple of boxes outside the bedroom window and meow lightly to get my attention. It is so...

loves it when I mow the lawn. Just finished doing the task. All the while I was out there, the mowing brought up small insects from the grass. There was a pied wagtail (see http://www.rspb.org.uk/birds/guide/p/piedwagtail/index.asp ) following me around feasting away on the insects I'd disturbed....

I was at work today and picking the fur of multiple felines off of a white t-shirt, when something clicked in my mind. I've figured out why cats HAVE to rub themselves all over our clothes. They're leaving tracers so that they can mentally think about us and know exactly what we're doing at that...

Yes, the seasons are progressing, as indicated by the cat-mometer. Where a few weeks ago, it was curled up in a tight little ball, today it is stretched out to luxurious lengths. ;) Theresa My Blog: http://www.humanitas.blogspot.com alt.tv.frasier FAQ: http://www.im-listening.net/FAQ/

My name is Gary Stollman and I am the person who in August of 1987 crashed the live set of KNBC TV in downtown Burbank, California, and forced Consumer Advocate David Horowitz to read a prepared statement about how the CIA and alien beings had replaced my family and friends with clones, and...

Since Eddie the dog can't quite understand that cat food isn't good for him, we've had to do some drastic shiznit. And since I've been metaphorically screwing up all dang day (I blame evil monkeys) the cat food ended up in a disposable bowl on far side of the oven. Harvey had been finished and I...
