My husband gave me a print that I had admired at the cat show this past October. I thought some of you would like the style so I'll share the artists website. This link should take you directly to the print that I have, named Christopher Columbus. She has three albums of cats in her main...

Just got home from PetCo. Where they offered for sale deserts for dogs. Little cans like the little cans of cat food in Carrot Cake or Apple Pie or Berry Cobbler or another I don't remember. Eighty cents a can or you can by a box of 24 cans (all one flavor) Even more silly is I actually bought...

If you are sensitive about animal abuse, especially to a beloved pet, don't follow the below link. http://www.theindychannel.com/news/3854652/detail.html The pet *DOES* live. I will add that there is a link to pictures of the animal, and while they give a "graphic content" warning, I didn't find...

Oh how I hate reading these things, but will I stop doing so - NO! I really need to cancel my CNN "alert" for the keyword "cat". Although it sometimes brings up nice little stories that I enjoy, it too often brings up stuff like this (at least thie sickos were fired and charged with federal...

Good news first - Dusty has been rescued. Details he http://www.stagg.hk/?p=211 Purrs for Dusty to be safely re-homed with someone who can help him recover from his trauma. And the filthiest litter-box scrapings for his abusers. Al.

I'm sure Shamrock feels very abused tonight. His Depo shot came in the mail today, and it's a big needle. Plus, he had to get his dose of Clomicalm (daily) and today is his 2x weekly day for allergy shot. I think we're going to give the Atopica drug a shot for his allergies and see if we can get...

He hasn't been eating much of the gooshy food that I've been presenting to him several times a day, yet he seems to be gaining a little weight back. Today for the first time since he took sick, I caught him eating dry kibble from the communal dish. I couldn't ask for a better sign that he's...

I guess the force-feeding got his appetite to wake up, because this morning he showed strong interest in food and tried to eat on his own. Unfortunately he was unable to do it, so he got babyfood again, via syringe. He seems a bit less wobbly today - another 5%, I would guess - and is purring...

IBKFergus has become an official member of the family. Its not something one immediately notices, she wasn't one day a "newcomer" and then the next just another (fur)person I share my life with. It sorta snuck up on me, heck, I hadn't really realised that she had been fully accepted until..... I...

OK, got the police report today. Mike was given a ticket for $10 and $100 court costs for "Failure to Yield." The woman who hit him claimed that she was only doing 45 mph and had hit the brakes before she hit Mike. I'll Post an album of the damages to both vehicles later. BTW she was cited for...

He's out of surgery, the bleeding has stopped but he remains in critical condition at Tulane. So far, they have discovered that our local hospital did not clean his wounds, at all. I could say we're assuming that they didn't believe he'd live so they didn't try very hard. But I'm not familiar with...

Just to keep some who are interested up to date on my friend.. He has a fiance' who obviously said yes this past weekend :). Sometime next summer from what I hear. He's healing better than expected, so now maybe Christmas instead of the first. Today was his first skin graft and it went well. It's...

"Accidents will happen" is the title of a song by Elvis Costello from the late 70's. And as you all know, most accidents happen in your very own home. On February 24, it happened to me... Does this story include cats? Both no and yes. I will explain... On that evening (Saturday 23th of...

We started out for a walk earlier this evening and weren't more than 100' from the front yard when we were spotted by two orange tabby kittens sitting beside the road. They ran right up to us, purring a mile a minute and begging to be picked up. Both are skin and bone but Joey is the more...

We got the cat tree today. It says "some assembly required".... http://www.possibleplaces.com/Tree/ I think this is going to take longer than we thought! ; -- Hugs,

ACK! I typically let the cats have a sniff of whatever I have. Tonight, Apache was in my lap, and looked up at my mug of beer. So I said, 'Why not?' and held it down to her level to have a sniff. Suddenly, a gnat flew down into the mug, and she slapped at it, flinging foam and beer everywhere,...
