For a while now I've suspected that Natasha is having trouble seeing the surface of the water in her water bowl (recently diagnosed with developing cataracts). I sort of think this is partly why she's always putting her feet into her water bowl (it's white), because there have been a few times I've...

As some of you know, DH has had some major problems this year. He is still having some, although he is better. The problem now is that he is ADD, works full-time, and he is frustrated at not having anything in the way of fun/relaxing things he can do. He's ADD, so he gets bored easily, which...

I'm really aggravated at Dateline NBC who is doing a 2 hour piece on , the man who shot John Lennon. The whole reason he murdered John Lennon was to get some sick sort of fame for himself. I wish we could have put him under the prison for the rest of his life and never once mentioned his name. ...

I lost my mind for a moment (OK, a moment that has lasted 54 years), and told my family I would bake a pecan pie from scratch for Thanksgiving (the only other thing I'm cooking is my beloved Cajun cornbread stuffing - my daughter will be cooking everything else, thankfully). So now I need a really...

Man oh man, those were mighty healing purrs that y'all sent for Abelard with his tumor! As of this morning it was GONE. Repeat: Not There Anymore. What on earth happened to it?? Do we have a Feline Remote Psychic Surgeon in our group? There's just a little depression where it sat, surrounded by...

Lilly-Whiskers has found a new use for my legs. I am an "interactive climbing tree". She charges at me as fast as her little legs will carry her, and tries to see how far up my body she can get. It was cute the first time she did it and reached my shoulder, although it hurt like hell. After the...

NEW RULES New Rule: Just because your tattoo has Chinese characters in it doesn't make you spiritual. It's right above the crack of your as@. And it translates to "beef with broccoli." The last time you did anything spiritual, you were praying to God you weren't pregnant. You're not spiritual....

wanna know my secret it won't cost you a dime

Many years ago a Kentucky grandmother gave a new bride the** following recipe for washing clothes....** 1. Bilt fire in backyard to heat kettle of rain water.** 2. Set tubs so smoke wont blow in eyes if wind is pert.** 3. Shave one hole cake of lie soap in bilin water.** 4. Sort things, make 3...

Hi all, I just returned from the hospital - my husband Carl passed away this morning. For the past few days he's been visited by every friend who could get in to see him and there was as much laughter as tears. If there is a good way to leave, this was it. I want to thank everyone for their purrs...

Another story about my cats. This time Shamrock. He just taught himself to play fetch. 'Bout time. He stole the nose pads with a little black dot nose from one of my pair of footies that have little kitty faces glued on to a pompom head at the heel. Scarlett probably disconnected the pompom from...

Since I got back from my short trip Persia has been so ultra-clingy I don't know what to do. It's okay that she wants to snuggle when we sleep. But she's at the window when I'm out, meowing when I come back in (I'm never gone more than 15 minutes). She wants in my lap constantly. She has to be...

Here it is November 15 in the *NORTHERN* hemisphere and our temperatures have been in the 80s all month!!!! As much as I love Houston, I *HATE* Houston weather. We're supposed to be getting a "cold snap" tonight - it may get as low as 45F - *GASP* better get out the tire chains!!!! ...

Want to know my secret?

We've had a cold snap here - in the teens-twenties F - so in order to *not* blow a fuse (or worse, start a fire) by running multiple space heaters on the back porch for Betty, Barney & Bam-Bam, we moved them into our bedroom. Kept them in the carrier for a couple of hours, until they got over...

I just farted

People that smoke around their cats and force them to inhale those toxic fumes are irresponsible, ignorant jerks that don't deserve the blessing of a feline companion: Are asthmatic cats allergic to humans? Some felines sickened by cigarette smoke, dust and dandruff, study finds LONDON - Cats are...
