ok, so i have allergies and i readily accept having cats fostering cats and working in the shelter with cats.......... and i know my alergies are getting worse, i have been having wheezing in my chest and runny nose sneezing, the whole nine yards.. so i went to the dr to get something for the weezy...

She's so sweet! She loves to have her ears scritched. She purrs loudly. https://s2.postimg.org/tna4hctgp/buffy_ears.jpg And I am stared at in return: https://s2.postimg.org/afe7ox5wp/hi_you.jpg

It's just me and the two cats, and they have shown a marked reluctance to hold each other down while I trim claws. So how does one person manage a claw clip on a reluctant cat? I have in the past tried to wrap one in a towel (prewarmed for his comfort) but I can only manage maybe two claws that...

I'm sure there are those of you who remember my father and the sagas of him and his cat Charlie. Well, they are all over as of about two hours ago. My father succumbed to a septic infection. I spent the evening with him as they got him transferred from the ER to ICU. He died several hours later....

Hi everyone, Many of us here know how effective the power of purrs can be, and how remarkable things can happen when we as a group purr collectively. I wondered if we could have a collective purr session at a specified time tomorrow, to send our concentrated positive purr energies towards Tweed,...

Although nothing will ever replace real books for me, it seems to me that an e-reader would be the best bet for traveling, as opposed to taking a large number of books along. Since my kids are taking me to Australia in October, I'm seriously considering getting an e-reader. So far I'm leaning...

I was feeding Bruiser and Maya some tuna just a few minutes ago when Bruiser brushed up near a lit candle and his fur caught on fire. He never even realized he was on fire but a patch of fur was burning. It looked like he had a zippo lighter burning on his flank near his tail. It went out with a...

Did you ever just think that the world just constantly produces countless new cat toys? I was awakened last night by the wildest kitty soccer in recent memory-- sounded like a dozen cats-- with extra scuffling and sliding-- donuts and burnouts-- on the hardwood floor. I turned the light on, and...

Great news, I got a job today! I'm so excited! Here's the whole story of how it happened. It couldn't have been easier! Dennis and I have been driving around the area a bit looking a houses trying to get ideas for what kind of house we want to build. We found this one house we really liked and...

This morning Jim's parents called and asked if we would drive them and Charley to the urgent care animal hospital, as Charley was in really poor shape and they didn't want to put him through any more pain. Rob and I went with them to the vet (a really cute little lady) and stayed with him while he...

Hi all My ginger moggy Simon could use a few of your purrs at the moment. He’s 20 years old and for the past year has been on medication and having regular vet checks for chronic renal failure. The medication has really helped improve his quality of life up till now, and although he’s been...

description from you who eat it, and a source to purchase if there is one in the us, Lee

I had to take the furbag back to TED today. His eye just isn't healing up. After 1 week of goop in the eye 3 times a day it is much better but he is still squinty and the membranes are red. So now TED gave me a script for eye drops. Had to fill them at my pharmacy. These need to be given FOUR...

I learned this morning of a terrible thing. The U.S.A. has banned, yes *banned* the importation of vegemite, to the extent where they are searching Australians entering the USA and confiscating their precious vegemite (black gold). This is apparently because it contains added folate (a B vitamin)...

3:45AM - I was awakened from a sound sleep (which doesn't happen every night) to the sound of howling. Buffy?! I turned on the bedside lamp, grabbed my glasses and my robe and went looking for her. I have never, ever, heard Buffy howl before. I found her staring out one of the the glass...

... Nikki must needs squeeze into it. The photos aren't very good, but I had to darken them because the flash made evrything glaring white. You can just make out the edges of the box, though Nikki covers most of them with her body. ;o) Why, oh why do they do that?? It's like the smaller the...

I've just advised someone on facebook to lie to get into a cat hoarders home. When Boyfie had his dreadful injury last year, the first thing the vet wanted to know was "can you afford this?" Otherwise he'd have been a gonner.. So I said yes.I kind of lied at the time. I knew it would be...

Well, the vet finally rang me. She'd had a difficult patient before Frank so it took her this long (it's 3 in the afternoon here) to get around to him (guesswho's been on tenterhooks the past 6 hours?). From the new X-rays and the old ones, and examining him while he was lightly sedated, she made...
