Persia and the Stale Cat Food by
jmcquown[_2_]
I was cleaning out a cupboard and found a couple of small half-used bags
of dry cat food. Friskies and something else. I guess I bought it when
Persia started dropping weight fast and we didn't know yet what was
going on. I just wanted her to eat.
Well, I scattered some of this old stale...

Nipsy gets his teeth cleaned - productive and expensive day by
dgk
I brought him into the vet because he was sneezing a lot. I've been a
bit clogged also so I guess it's allergies although I don't get them
too much. I never used to get them at all but I'm getting older and
that's one of those joys that come with aging.
The vet said that his teeth need cleaning...

jmcquown see inside by
John Ross Mc Master

This is a big success AND very English.
One is planned for my city, Vancouver, and will somehow reflect our
West Coast love of animals. i think there will be more of a tie-in
with humane education and cat adoption centres.

Diagnosis is either inner ear infection or some kind of lesion on the
brain; it's unlikely to be a stroke since he's only 7 or 8. He has
something called Megaesophogus which is very rare in cats and mostly
occurs in...

I don't know which one of it was, as it was the middle of the night, all
four of you were on the bed, and it was pitch black.
But needless to say, I woke up to your loud hacking and throwing up.
