Vernon has been working on the stable of cycles out in the garage most of today, with the garage door open. He's had various feline visitors coming and going as Waffles, Francis and Marble have been in to check on Paw periodically. Tonight though, he's had another visitor - one of my neighbour's...

Tish has reported in. The trip interstate with Potjie (previosuly known as 'Jet') was uneventful, and it was obvious as soon as they saw each other that Potjie and her father were meant for each other. Potjie has already settled into his foreverhome, gave the d*g a talking to about who's boss (the...

I just wanted to say hi to everyone. I haven't been posting much lately and kind of skimming threads. But all are in my thoughts and prayers. (WAVES TO ALL).

This, I love! http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/cornwall/4609832.stm "Making a bad impression frees cat" "A Cornish firefighter has managed to free a kitten stuck up a chimney for five days - by impersonating a dog. Hours after going to her new home in Penzance kitten Smirnoff got stuck...

I just went downstairs to bring in the laundry and I saw a lady taking a shortcut through the complex - with a very small black shape following behind. She was ignoring it so it obviously wasn't her kitty and I've never seen it before in my life. I took a few steps towards it and said 'here puss'...

I know I've taken a million pics like this, but I just can't resist when I see them snuggled together: http://tinyurl.com/cqvzx Caliban still seems to subscribe to the theory that streetching out while sleeping will help you grow (thanks, Wayne, for pointing that out): http://tinyurl.com/9pwun

Pardon if this is a stupid question (also pardon, but this is crossposted for the most coverage - I really need info on this), but..... How contagious is herpes in a cat's eye? What degree of contact would it take to pass this from one cat to another? Is this virus the same as or related to the...

Silver calmed down in about three hours and stopped hisspitting at her sister... then John came home and he told me to bring the carrier out to the livingroom to see what she'd do. Scouty came along took one look at the monster in the carrier and fled the room... Silly hid under the table and...

In our house, it's Cali, followed closely by Cleo and finally Smokey. This initially caused a bit on consternation with Smokey, as she was the second arrival and Cleo was the third. Smokey would run away and hide at the first sign of aggression from Cleo. But they've all come to a sort of...

Well so far I've asked for purrs a good few times and no new job has materialised Perhaps for a reason as there's one place I really want to work at and I now have an interview (2 weeks today and I am already a nervous wreck!) so can those purrs be spared please? Lesley Slave of the Fabulous...

A while ago, just a few weeks to my memory, I got a PO Box. Paid for 6 months. I kept telling myself I'd check it soon, but hadn't. Well. I finally got my butt into the post office (just a half mile or so from where I work) and ... the PO Box was locked. Seems I haven't checked the damn thing...

Hi, I thought I'd throw this problem out to the group, as you all seem to be so very clever with your animals. I live in a second floor apartment, with windows on all sides and an enclosed back porch. (If you're familiar with Chicago two-flats, you know what I mean.) The apartment gets great...

Persia was growling, but not yowling, so I went to see what was going on. She was peering out the glass patio doors at this tiny tuxedo cat! Pretty little thing with a black & white face, a white bib and long white socks. Couldn't have been more than 6 months old. Persia was a bit upset but...

A couple of years ago I bought a cat toy from the grocery store. It looked kind of like an octopus, with a fuzzy ball and then 8 legs coming out of the bottom. They came in 2 different colors, with this particular one being red and white. I have four cats, and Patty was the only one interested in...

In the apartment building behind mine lives a large tuxedo boy named Zeus. His white muzzle is centered perfectly on his black face, making him a very pretty cat. He loves to snooze on the back stairs, in the sun. When I see him from my kitchen, I call out the window, but other than a faint ear...
