Baby Bea's 1st Mousie by
Pat
Went out today and left the door closed with cat flap set to "In Only" so
Bea wouldn't get out. She's one of the four (out of seven) who have yet to
figure out how to open the cat flap to go out when it's set this way. The
other three are Baby Eyes (who does not care), Eli and Abelard (who...

Purrs for the 3 Stooges, please. by
Magic Mood Jeep©
No - not the ones from TV, the ones that laze about my house more often than
not.
Ernie, Mimi & Moe have their yearly checkup in less than one hour. TED will
tell me Mimi is fat (her nickname is not Butterball for naught), and that
Moe is peachy and Ernie is huge (weighs a full 2-3 pounds more...

Ouch! Mind the fang... by
Victor Martinez
I was having a love-fest with Issa this morning and I have him a good
peck in the face. He turned his face just as I was making contact and I
ended up with his fang on my lip. Ouch! He's got sharp fangs!

Claudius is here (Pics up too) by
Exocat
I brought him home yesterday lunchtime. Only 1 miaow during the
40-minute journey, which he spent snuggled up in the nearest corner to
me of the large-dog-sized carrier.
Raki the d-pet rushed up to greet me as I hefted the carrier indoors.
Claudius hissed, arched his back and fluffed himself up...

Save A Cat by
Lovie Dovey
Hello.:^)
I hope this isn't considered spam or illegal. I was unable to find the
rules for discuss.
I've taken in a lot of strays in my neighborhood that have wandered into
my kitchen through a propped open pet door. I've been able to get many
adopted out but I was up to 18 cats in my small house...

Mere huntress part II by
Marina
While I've been in town, packing, moving and unpacking, the cats have
been looked after on the island by their Grandmeowmie. She even moved
down into my shack so 'they wouldn't be lonely at night'. (Yes, they
have her firmly wrapped around their little paws. She spoils them like
she would any...

Prissy -(First 'owner' ) by
Shirley B.
I've mentioned before that we had another Siamese years ago. This is so long
ago that it was right before we were married (and we're celebrating 30 this
year!) Someone had abandoned her (she was about 1 yr old) in the hall in
our apt building with a bowl of food; so they may have deprived her of...

We've been RESCUED!!! (long) by
Mischief
Today was our fifth day of imprisonment. We were taken out and put on
the scale again and fed our food. It seemed like another day of
imprisonment.
But this day was different. Now it was our turn to be tortured!!
First I saw Mayhem taken out of her cage. They held her down while
they clipped...

Boyfriend gets the rat by
Christina Websell
Boyfriend likes to join me every morning when I feed the chickens, to "help"
me. Suddenly there was a little skirmish near one of the huts. Then BF took
off up the path towards the house and I could tell he had caught something
and had it in his mouth.
He took it into the kitchen to show me. A...

Help! Da TED said we're too fluffy! by
Karen AKA Kajikit
I think da scales were lying... or da TED-lady was. She made us sit on
the metal box and she said that I'm too fluffy since I'm a year old
and I'm as growed up as I'm gonna get. She said I'm 14 pounds...
Silly's the greedy one! She eats way more than me and she steals off

Fosterers: Stand and Be Recognized! by
jmcquown
Some unknown folks emailed Sherry, thinking she was taking Angel to the
shelter because of her "antics". Angel was a fostered kitten, ready for a
forever-home.
If you foster cats, please stand and be recognized!

Angel's Last Photo by

Well this is it. She's going to the shelter in the morning.
I swear, she has been so nice today. I didn't feel well and she cuddled
up on my chest while I laid down all afternoon.
I got her stuff all together ready to load in the car, and she went
over and sat on the turbo scratcher, looked so...

O&C snippets by
Susan M
It's been a little while since I've been anecdote-y about the boys. Summer
is harder for that since they spend so much time lounging outdoors and
killing mice that they're a little less playful and more independent.
.... or so I thought. I realized that I hadn't even tried to play with...

Angel *Likes* the Spray Bottle--So Now What? by
[email protected]
Can a 9-week-old kitten be incorrigible?
What do I do now, buy a Super Soaker?
NEVER seen anything like it. She thinks it's a game, runs full-force
into the mist, runs around the room, then back up at the spray bottle.
She is a curtain climber, a leg climber, a plant digger, and a toe
biter. ...

Samson hates peppermint by
Debra
Have you ever seen a cat recoil and look totally horrified from just a
smell? It's so funny! Samson does it every time I try to pick him up
right after I brush my teeth, or if I have just chewed a Rolaids, or
had a starlight mint! He absolutely detests the scent of peppermint.
It is especially...

Warning about dangle toys attached to scratching posts by
MaryL
This is a duplicate of a message I just posted to health+behav. The message
in h+b was written in response to another message, but I feel very strongly
about the dangers of those cute "dangle toys" that are often attached to cat
trees and scratching posts.
Please be *very* careful with those...

UPDATED Update on John's Mom :) by

Cantankerous woman that she is, she told John yesterday to just take some
furnishings and stuff over to her apartment at the nursing home and "let's

Major rescue operation in New England by
Pat
Do we have any members/lurkers who want an Aby (like Abelard) or a Bengal
kitty?
A very unfortunate situation has developed. A rescue is underway for around
150 cats - Abys, Bengals and Aby/Bengal mixes. I don't have details but I
suspect it might be a breeder shutting down.
The Abys and the main...
