Duffy had his physical exam today, and TED said it is *perfect.* He said it is very rare for a cat of Duffy's age (16) to have test results like that. He had stopped eating for awhile, but it turned out that he needed dental work. Two molars were removed (and the rest of his teeth cleaned and...

Someone stole my bicycle from my workplace on Monday. There's CCTV images of him leaving the site, but it's a "rear view", so not much help for the police. I've spent several hours looking through images from sixteen different cameras to see if he's been caught anywhere else on the 93-acre...

Those who are not American and could not resist reading my post that had the title "Americans only" grin I'd have had to have a look myself, tbh. Tweed ]

I've noticed we have a fair share of regulars on this group with "additional needs". Not "disabilities", but "additional needs". Not "special" needs, either - just extra requirements. We've got vision and hearing impaired, we've got mobility impairments. Then we've got people like me with...

http://icanhascheezburger.wordpress.com/files/2009/03/funny-pictures-cats-may-be-here-to-eat-brains.jpg My parents had new neighbors in TN back around 1975 who invited them to a "cocktail party". Turned out they were soliciting neighbors trying to sign them up to sell Amway. They weren't...

I just heard on TV that Ted Kennedy has passed away at age 77. I didn't hear the "how I liked the Kennedy's. I guess that leaves Caroline the lone surviving Kennedy. RIP Teddy. Kyla

Hi Lee! Under here I will put the recipe series. I've taken into account: minimal space for storage, reasonably lower fat, 2 burners, 1 medium stock pot, a 1.5 quart pot with steamer insert, and a frypan. I ignored the microwave except most of these will neatly make 4-6 servings so that would...

I can barely move, even a deep breath is excruciating. No idea how I managed this... I dragged myself to the chiropractor who diagnosed a sprained muscle in the back. Chiropractors here can't prescribe drugs and I couldn't find the remainder of pain pills from my last dental extraction. (Aspirin...

Hi Victor Are you still running a fund for Ginger-Lynn's vet bills? If so can you send me the details- I am not fantastically rich at the moment but I can scrape a little something together Lesley Slave of the Fabulous Furballs

I really wish I could get a good, close-up photo of Persia's eyes. She's frequently lounging right next to me on the sofa as I read, or leaning up on the sofa to tap my face (usually my nose!) if she wants something (food off her "schedule"). Her eyes are truly gorgeous. There is an...

I don't know if it's the winter blues or what, but I am so tired and spacey these days, it's hard to keep up with much of anything right now. It looks like the landlord has got the building sold, as long as the loan is approved. Sigh. I get the feeling this one is not such an understanding...

Pong goes to his new home! sniff He's still a "strange kitty" around here, but that won't mean I won't miss him. :( But it is for the best - we caught Ping *spraying* the other day! Fortunately, he was on the dresser and only got the mirror, so it was easily cleaned up.

Miranda caught a mouse in the enclosure this morning! I don't know how it got into the enclosure. Must have been via the manhole or maybe it squeezed between the netting and the wall. Must have been one of these suicidal mouses we've been talking about. To deliberately squeeze into a cat...

I hope this message makes it...seems some of my recent posts have not shown up, and I'm starting to feel like I've been booted or something. but anyway... We will be picking him up from Marilyn's tomorrow after her service, and from there to the vet to get his routine screenings. I understand she...

I have mentioned my friend Matt who has asked to be rehoused because of his chronic epilepsy, which due to stress is out of control. At last count he managed to get the council to agree he might have priority becasue of his health problems and his landlady agreed to hold off turfing him out on the...

"O J" wrote in message ... Hi All, Some of you may remember that I wrote of my little Persian, Roxy, who was kept in a garage when she was a kitten and didn't know how to play when she got here. Lately, she's been...
