I've been using the Breeze system for a couple of weeks now, and my reaction is mixed. It is definitely easier to scoop the box, and I love not having the dust from the clumping litter. It is easier to sweep up the very few pellets that get kicked out of the box than it was the fairly large...

Been offline for a week, fixed now. A week ago just about now, a car driver ran over my Courtney just outside the house. Her head was crushed and she must have died instantly. The killer didn't stop, of course. They must have been going far too fast for a suburban side street, as Courtney...

There was a new episode on Animal Planet yesterday. I've never watched this before. Some guy named Jackson Galaxy knows a lot about cats and cat behavior. So he goes to people's houses and tells them how to "fix" their cats. A couple adopted a Sphinx named Mandy. They decided a few years...

In another place, Wafflycat (Helen, a previous denizen of this parish and slave to the one-eyed Mighty Huntress) reports that she's having a surgical procedure on her knees next week (Monday), which will hopefully allow her to return to cycling. I'm sure she'd appreciate your purrs. -- MatSav

There's a mesh enclosure on my patio known as a Kitty Walk. When I got up this morning I found a small sparrow fluttering around inside it, trying to get out. Persia was fascinated. (Hey, what's that bird doing in my kitty walk?!) I have no idea how the bird got in there. I keep it closed...

One of world's oldest cats Miez Maz mistakenly put down by Swiss vet Miez Maz, one of the oldest pet cats in the world, was put to sleep at the age of 33 when a vet mistook him for a sick stray. Read mo...

It's time for me to take Persia for her annual checkup. I just know the vet will want to give her booster shots. That's all well and good, but is it really necessary? She's an indoor cat. (She doesn't even really care to sit in the Kitty Walk enclosure on the patio much anymore.) How on...

Hello, From experience I can now tell everyone the sneakiest thing that can ever happen to you, in your life, is pneumonia: here you are, strong and healthy, head held high, trott’en along there, a doing your thing, and finally you have to accept the fact you cannot breath; “Is this me?”, you say...

A penchant for trying out random crap purchased on Amazon reputedly runs in my family; at least according to my mom. The latest weird thing I just had to try out was this: http://www.amazon.com/InstaMorph-Moldable-Plastic-12-oz/dp/B003QKLJKQ This is a low temperature thermoplastic that softens...

Now is the time for all good men/women to come to the aid of their party -- rather, Newsgroup! MLB

Purrs for my Marble boy, who went to the Bridge this morning. He would have been 10 years on on the 27th. He was perfectly fine day before yesterday, and last night when we got home from shopping, I noticed he was huddled in his bed and shivering, so I picked him up and cuddled him, and checked...

I'd never told you guys the whole explanation of what happened to Ben after I went into a coma last February and the doctors told him to notify my family to prepare them for my death. During the weeks that followed he himself had a heart attack and was hospitalized for takotsubo cardiomyopathy,...

February 2nd, 2012... early spring here in South Carolina. Time for Cat TV! The back of my house is all windows. There are birds visiting, migrating to places north as the weather slowly warms up. I've had a mated pair of bluebirds visiting the suet feeder and partaking of the scattered seed...

i meant that email for the group, sorry, Lee

The best way to describe Tiger is "a feisty love bug". He loves to sit on my lap and get nose touches and head-top kisses. He likes to get on the lower level of the cat tree and be brushed with the Zoom Groom. BUT if I bump him with my leg while walking, he spits. He also likes to get in front...

Most folks would have already seen my request for volunteers to help compile the RPCA Cookbook from all the recipes posted here over the years. However, if you haven't, the idea is that every volunteer is allocated a week of RPCA archives, and they get to go through, find, and save the recipes...

Where,Oh where has my little cat gone? Where, oh where can she be? With her ears so short And her tail so long -- Where, oh where can she be? Testing to see if there is still life on RPCA. MLB
