Well the gas furnace is on the fritz and needs either replacement or a miracle repair. My cat has been generously using the 2 electric blankets upstairs. When I am at the computer, my cat will try to sqeeze beside me or behind me and eventually push me off to the side.Now I put this chair next to...

Turkey Day is now over -- and my question is -- what happened to 2004? Where did it go? I'm just getting used to writing the new numbers in my checkbook! Christmas cards are beginning to arrive and each one is opened wth love, ohh'ed! and ahh'ed! over, shared, kissed and enjoyed! You are such...

This morning I found.... ....a RAZOR in my SHOE. Explains the clicking noise I heard last night, eh? It's a good thing I keep the safety sheath on razors, or the surprise could've been even more unpleasant (and messy) but geez, you feed them, you clean their litter, you serve their every whim,...

Talk about naughty kitties. FSP stays in the cat house at night. When I let her out at 7.00 a.m yesterday morning. She tore inside, fed her face and then vanished. Normally she hangs around the house or sleeps in the shrubs near the backdoor. I began to worry after a few hours, it was unusual...

Does anyone else's cat get all pitiful and needy when it rains? My Bartleby, a large, very strong "alpha male" type, gets all pathetic when it rains. He doesn't go outside, so it's not like he's all sad that he can't go out. He gets very lovey with me, curls up on my lap, meows...

I am so excited! If things work out tomorrow, I'm getting a new truck. A metallic blue Canyon. The salesman is a smart one. He sent me home with it last night. You see I currently drive a GMC Typhoon. GMC made them in 1992 and 1993 and only made about 4,000 each year so there are only a limited...

Shortly before I woke up this morning I rolled over and put my hand on Persia's side. I fell into a dream where I thought I'd opened the door and she dashed out! It was so realistic I grabbed at her in my sleep to keep her from running out! She squeaked; I woke up. She was standing on the...

Some of you may remember that Ding went walkabout a while back. I know not if he actually got out, hid in the basement, or visited the Mothership, but it clearly was traumatic. He's always been the most timid and submissive of the three. He is, however, slowly relaxing and interacting more. The...

Steve, just in case you would be interested in this-- The State of Oklahoma passed a bill that would allow the purchase of a Spay/Neuter car tag. The tag will cost $35; $20 of it goes to an Overpopulation Fund. Also passed was a check-off box on our state income tax return that you can allocate a...

Sometimes I walk into the room when Stinky is half asleep, and he will just flip over and show his big white belly. When I skritch him, he makes a whole variety of noises, except very muted down. Tiny, barely audible little prrs, trills and chirps. It is so adorable. Theresa Stinky Pictures:...

Many of us know the joys of exercising with a playful, curious or affectionate cat(s) in the room. Stinky will sometimes watch, and sometimes even demonstrate the correct way to do what I think I'm doing.;) But when I lie down on my back to do crunches, or relax after a yoga session, he has no...

Okay, Persia went nuts over the cat fur again! G Made me laugh; thank you! Jill

Two bouts of destruction tonight. It was my fault. Christmas cactus (almost blooming) tumbled to the floor. It was my fault. Curtain rod with its bracket pulled free from the wall. It was my fault. You can never leave tempting things at kitten level. Curtains, wicker stands for potted plants. It...
