My other "pets" arrived on Tuesday - right on schedule. A hummingbird on my feeder. This is the third year in a row that they arrived on May 6th. ---MIKE--- In the White Mountains of New Hampshire (44° 15' N - Elevation 1580')

The purrs worked - thank you. Everything went very well. The only pain was the insertion of the IV. I don't remember going to sleep. I woke up less than an hour later in the recovery room. Two polups were removed but everything looked ok. When my ride arrived I went with him to the cafeteria...

On today's show a woman was suing a taxidermist for botching a job of freeze-drying her dead cat. She wanted the cat's heart returned to her so she could make it into a pendant. The judge awarded her $2,000 for pain and suffering. He was very sympathetic but wouldn't it have been better to...

When I got Tiger at age four months, his name was "Tweedles". That wouldn't fit a 24 pound Maine Coon! He responds to his name when he feels like it. ---MIKE--- In the White Mountains of New Hampshire (44° 15' N - Elevation 1580')

Who says that cats don't smile? I caught Tiger in one of his good moods! http://albums.photo.epson.com/j/View?u=1777604&a=13746147&p=76023549&Sequence=0&res=high ---MIKE--- In the White Mountains of New Hampshire (44° 15' N - Elevation 1580')

When I feed Tiger and Amber, I only put about 1/3 of the (6oz) can out at first. This is because Tiger would eat his whole half at once and promptly barf it up. Amber eats a little, leaves and then comes back for more - usually five or six times. When the can is empty, I tell Amber that it's all...

oldhickery asked: We have Ruby Throats and Black Chins, here...what do you have in NH? Only Ruby Throats here. I enjoyed your slide show. Was that a HummZinger feeder? I notice that they weren't using the perch. With mine I added a closer perch on two sides which they seem to prefer. ...

During most of the summer, my 48 ounce Perky Pet would be emptied in about 24 hours. The 12 ounce PP, just around the corner, would go for about a week. The climate here is cool enough so the nectar keeps for a week or more. I don't seem to have any bullies. Activity has slowed down a lot so I...

I have had a stiff neck for months. About four weeks ago I went to my usual sports medicine chiropractor for treatment. He did nothing to my neck instead pressing on pressure points on my upper left back. Since then, I have had a strange "tingling"/numbness sensation that comes and goes with...

The first hummingbirds arrived at my feeder today. This a year to the day that the first arrivals came last year. Later on I will have three feeders out and have to make a gallon of nectar about every other day. ---MIKE--- In the White Mountains of New Hampshire (44° 15'...

One of the cats (Amber) had just about torn the small scratching post to shreds. Thursday I bought 65 feet of sisal and Saturday I rewound the post. It looks like brand new but so far it hasn't been used. ---MIKE--- In the White Mountains of New Hampshire (44° 15' N -...

Amelia kitty (aka Tiny Baby and Hoover Girl) could use some purrs. A few days ago she started showing signs of a UTI, so we went to the vet. He confirmed a bladder infection and gave us a prescription for antibiotics. She is giving me a major fight over her pills, but I think that's a good...

cool as out yal find... Dec.22 was the 5th anniversary of the loss of "Fission". She was the best cat anyone could ever hope to live with. Smart, well behaved, affectionate, and sexy as a cat could ever be (I often looked at her waving that beautiful tail at me and thought "Damn, I wish I could be...

I make a 120 mile commute every day between home and the office. I normally take one of two freeway routes, depending on which freeways are congested. Today was an expecially bad day - sig alerts on both of primary routes. This meant that I had to drive about 1/3 of the way on freeways, get off on...

Wait a minute and read this ----- make money with 6 dollars ,easy money no bull I found this on a bulletin board and decided to try it. A little while back, I was browsing through newsgroups, just like you are now, and came across an article similar to this that said you could make thousands of...

Well it was bound to happen sooner or later and i guess its time i try to find a vet to nuter my rufas. All day today he has been trying to have sex with my 3 female cats. The scarey thing is, is that my one ginger doesn't seem to mind that she's got a rabbit mating on her back! I had to break...
