I have mentioned before that there is a black neutered boycat that lives two doors away who hates Boyfriend. He is often in our garden showing off his superior age and strength, he's quite a big cat and has one of those "in yer face" personalities. He is very confident that he is just "wow!" If...

Yesterday I was awoken at 4 a.m. by the noise of a cat fight and galloping feet. KFC and Boyfriend do have their ups and downs but they rarely actually fight although it has been known, once or twice, and always in the night. I briefly considered getting up and going downstairs into the cold...

Knowing the power of "Purrs" I am asking for some for my father who had a major heart attack today. I am going to visit him and will update you when I know something. Any purrs you would care to send his way would be appreciated. Thanks! Diane

Boyfie came in from rat patrol on Monday evening and went straight to bed which is not unusual. What was a bit unusual was the look on his face. I don't suppose anyone else would have noticed except me, who knows him so well. When he didn't get out of bed for his breakfast yesterday - well,...

Well, she's back, and with another batch of kittens (another 4, one black & white, one grey/white striped & white, and 2 grey/black tiger & white), again in one of our basement window wells. Their eyes are open, but they haven't gotten the acting of walking down pat (I watched them for 5...

Thank you all, here is the latest. When I phoned again to see how Kitty was, I was told she could come home!! because she had eaten a good meal, her temperature had returned to normal and they thought she would be happier in her own surroundings. I have to phone a report in tomorrow and the...

I haven't got a clue how to solve a certain problem, and it's not one that I can resolve alone. It's very hard for me to ask for help with this, too, but I'm praying that one of you will have an answer for me. It's my house, which is so dirty and disorganized that even the cats hate it. I plug...

Dag nab her little britches, Miranda is home! I was feeling really hopeless last night and cried myself to sleep. Around midnight, a little paw came pawing at the covers for me to lift them and let the cat in. Expecting to feel Caliban, I stroked the little body that slipped in, and instead of...

That I got back from my day trip to London by 8pm tonight (much better than Blackpool, sez he, when it was 2 a.m. and he was dying from want of food) and he never moaned a bit about it tonight. I haven't been to London for more years than I like to remember. The weather was awful, it threw it...

All the time I've had Nanki-Poo sequestered, I've had a bowl with a combination of Friskies and Science Diet dry food in it, and a bowl of water in his room. In the meantime I've tried tempting him with various canned foods and baby food. The dry food dish has been untouched - until this morning!...

This is another entry in the Vet tech journals, but it's more of a vent. I have this co-worker Mike. He's been in the field for 15 yrs and has been with this clinic for 3 years. He is funny at times but he is the BIGGEST SCHMUCK I have ever seen. He's one of those guys that makes you wonder how...

We had visitors to-day and someone remarked thoughtfully that there was a cat on the roof. Our lounge looks out onto big beams that criss cross a U-shaped area. Bonnie was busy balancing on the beams like a tight-rope walker and yowling. I laughed merrily. "She's always doing that," I said. ...

I added 2 new pictures of Sam to his photo album. Girl kitties don't look at the second picture. Ann -- read Sam's blog at http://kittens-3.blogspot.com/ see pictures of Sam at http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/ann791/my_photos

I usually spend the early morning sitting in the recliner next to the open glass door into the back yard with coffee and newspaper. The cats will come and go as they see fit and will often just pause on the porch to see what we are doing inside. And I'll talk to them when they pass by. This...

TED finally called with the thyroid tests today. They came back A-OK. So his thyroid is good, his kidneys are good, his liver levels were elevated, his eye isn't healing up, he lost a tooth, he has a galloping heart beat and high blood pressure. Could just be heart disease. Not much we can do....

Maya woke me up early this morning by pushing the fish food containers from the stand to the floor. She is our official "gravity tester". I went back to sleep thinking nothing of it. Some time later, we woke up to the sound of something crashing around under the bed. We figured it was just the cats...

That she no longer likes her renal food. Which is brilliant because I just bought 48 pouches from the vet for her at an enormous cost on Friday!! sigh She's fed up with it, I think. She preferred to hoover up Boyfie's pouch of ordinary food salmon/trout this morning. The vet did say to me...

I'm going to the doctor tomorrow or the day after (I'm working three insane shifts: 12 pm to 8 pm, 11 pm to 6:30 am, and 7:15 to 1 pm - close to 24 hours straight of awake working.) I can't find any info on the net: I don't even know what to search for. Anyone here have an idea? --Constant...
