Here's a Hint for Static electricity and cat fur by
jmcquown[_2_]
It's the time of year where I live when static electricity due to the
changing of the seasons and shedding combine to make a keyboard with a
cat nearby a *magnet* for fur.
Here's the hint. Rub a dryer fabric softener sheet over the keyboard.
It actually picks up cat fur while leaving behind an...

Another thing about Static and cats by
jmcquown[_2_]
Things stick to their fur. I had something made of styrofoam, it was
packing material for something I received and I've repurposed it for
years (before I adopted Buffy) as a sort of window shade behind my desk
in the corner. This time of year. So the sun doesn't blind me.
Unfortunately, it...

I can't Change the Earth's Orbit by
jmcquown[_2_]
What is there to say? Cats love puddles of sunshine.
This time of year where I live the sun shines into the living room early
to mid-morning. This is where Buffy loves to play and then find a sunny
spot to take a nap. On various pieces of furniture or on her (ancient,
inherited from Persia)...

Buffy & the Plumbers by
jmcquown[_2_]
Yesterday, I had a plumber come out to unclog the master bathroom sinks
and to remove the awful pop-up stoppers that are the cause of all the
issues! Call me a luddite, I want rubber stoppers in the sink.
Now, I never know how Buffy is going to react to people who come into
the house. There...

Happy Valentine's Day, Buffy! by
jmcquown[_2_]
I found s stash of bright orange whiffle balls (the size of golf balls)
in a drawer. I tossed one out amongst all of Buffy's other toys. She's
been having a blast bapping it around.
Last night she meowed and made a racket after she'd bapped both a golf
ball and the wiffle ball underneath the...

We have fleas by
dgk
Well, someone apparently has fleas, and I guess that means we all do.
I don't see any, but a follow up to Nipsy's ear surgery shows that he
still has some issues, and the doc thinks it's probably fleas. Great.
It's my fault. I did give them Frontline before letting the start to
go outside, but...

He's made it! by
Lesley Madigan
Despite the number of times he's been threatened with strangulation/shooting/ having his balls removed with a blunt rusty knife (less effective a threat after the vet removed them) etc,
Despite the trail of destruction in his long legged clumsy wake (he appears to have little control over his legs...

No, Buffy! by
jmcquown[_2_]
I guess I'm basically talking to myself here. Everyone else seems to
have fled to Facebook. Sorry, not a fan.
Anyway... I put away the holiday decorations, one of which was a red
glass bowl on the table in the living room. Filled with fabric
ornaments. I put the holiday cards on the table...

Ha ha ha :) by
Patrick[_2_]
My PC suddenly developed a ~1 second beep, which I had to silence by
muting the sound.
I Googled 'one second beep, got really worried !
I suddenly realized that the sound is that what occurs when one of my
two cats walks on the Keyboard.
GER-ORF there I says!
No I won't says the cat (She's a...

Freshening the water bowl by
Takayuki
Sometimes, Dot and Buster will sit hopefully next to the water bowl,
apparently waiting for it to be refreshed or refilled. I'm sure you've seen
your kitties do this too - it's important to keep hydrated, after all!
When Dot and Buster ask for water bowl service, I'll typically ask them a
bit...

Bob Catt? by
Ann
Does anyone know how to contact him? He usually post every day on
Facebook but hasn't posted in about 2 weeks. People that are on Mooch's
page and follow Bob Catt on his facebook page are trying to find out if
he is okay.

Buffy and the Deer by
jmcquown[_2_]
You probably know there's a golf green behind my house so I don't have a
large back yard area. This doesn't stop deer from wandering around
between my yard and the golf course area. Lately they've been frequent
visitors out back. They wander around nibbling on clover.
Buffy pays little...

Buffy Freaked Out by
jmcquown[_2_]
She didn't really freak out. But she did wonder, WTH? I got chilly
last night so I pulled the bedspread halfway up. (It's usually folded
down at the end of the bed.) She was startled. What's this? Something
has changed. Oh dear, I don't think I like this.
Sorry, Buffy. As much as I love...

The fence is up! by

I had a fence put in my yard so I can let the cats out. Once the fence
was complete (wood, 6' shadowbox) I had to line the top with chicken
wire to keep the cats from just climibing out It isn't perfect - there
is an Acadia Palm in near the fence and the cats could climb that and

A stuck kitty by
Takayuki
When I was getting out of the shower yesterday, I heard a repeated, throaty
"Owwwwwww". I wasn't concerned, as it sounded like what Buster occasionally
does while patrolling the hallways.
But then, I noticed that it was coming from where my desk was, which was
odd, because that's one of Buster's...
