I really need some assistance- I hope someone can offer me some.... I have a 4 1/2 year old cat. I got him from a friend when he was about four months old, because she could not handle him, with a baby coming and a two year old. Anyway, since he has come to live with me, he has moved five...

After hydrotherapy today - which went better than last week, I decided my car, Mr F, was not parked quite as I like him to be, on my drive. Like June left him. It's difficult to get into my drive as there is not a drop kerb in front so I have to go up my neighbour's one and do a skilful...

A new addition to my feline family! Apparently he was in a household with several cats, and then the people moved away and abandoned all the cats. Somebody trapped them, but he had been on his own for quite a while, and is rather thin. As I was driving home, I tried to think of a name for him. ...

OK, you're desperately trying to lose weight for a big event, maybe a sister's wedding, and event you really, really want to look good for. Taking chocolate off the table for the ladies... what's the one food item that, no matter what, no matter how restrictive your diet it, even when you're...

(This is a long rant; I apologize in advance.) You know I want to sell this house. The realtor I'm working with is very knowledgeable about the housing market where I live. He said I would need to have it completely cleaned, including the carpets. Get it in "showing condition" so he can list...

Imp came to see me this morning!!! He hasn't done that in a while. I'm half awake when I sense him behind me. I roll over slowly and start scritching the side of this face. he leans into my hand and eventually flops onto his side. This continues for a moment, with him rubbing and leaning his...

I stumbled across this article about the healing powers of cat purrs. It appears to be from 2003. http://www.bksv.com/2798.asp For those interested in odd, amusing and interesting science news, this blog (where I found the above) is great: http://www.improbable.com/ Cheers,

I was just wondering - is non-alcoholic eggnog (specifically Borden's) bad for cats? I just know that Little Feet will want to sample a little when I open it. Hugs and Purrs, Mark -- Proof of Sanity Forged Upon Request

Eve woke up from her nap burning up, scorching hot, panting and heart racing. I yanked her up, went to the ER and just got home... No pnuemonia (butchered that spelling), little bronchial infection maybe... blood drawn, x-rays, antibiodic, breathing treatment, and two teaspoons of steroid later,...

Just curious. Names are funny things. I know people ponder long and hard about what to name children. My mother confided in me she was going to name me after both of my grandmothers, with a hyphen. Hannah-Lena. OH NO! Thank goodness she came to her senses! As you know, Persia found me (it was...

For some reason this morning Buffy is very vocal. When giving her scritches I noticed her ears and her paw pads seem exceptionally brighter pink. (She's an orange tabby.) She isn't usually this chatty, either. I just noticed this much brighter shade of pink. I've tried looking up these...

What are they? I bought some today in the bargain bin box at Tesco, half price. They were in an opaque bag but by the feel of them they are very large prawns, shell on. I can always make a meal from prawns - I love them. Tina

I've let Ginger-Lyn down and Rob as well. We got our SS rebate in the bank today. It was half what we were supposed to get. Worse, I'm in the hole cash wise. So I checked out the account and there is a $950.67 withdrawal that I know nothing about. I'm going to see what is going on, but in...

Call me a troll but I am crying my heart out right now in sorrow. I had heard and read some facts about mass production of meat but the knowledge was purely conceptual until today. Before you post any recipe, I dare you to watch this to the...

All our cats have rhyming nicknames, plus a few more. Kumani: Tawny-Kumani Sweetyface (allegedly the good one, she always looks innocent) Kumanimus Prime (Transformers joke) Tyche:

It has been one week since Skeeter was diagnosed with CRF, so it was back to the vet for a recheck. Some of her levels were down slightly, but her white count was up, so the doctor put her on a stronger antibiotic. Skeeter has not been eating much at all, and has lost 1/4 pound in the past week. ...
