Lunatic by
Gracecat
I haven't posted much recently, so ya'll have missed this past year of cat
antics but one stuck out yesterday that tickled me.
Tic (Jody calls her Luna, I call her tic-tic) was outside for a couple hours
yesterday. I walked outside and she came waltzing across the drive with a
baby lizard tail...

Urgh! Cat Frustration..... by
kilikini
A few months ago the cats discovered that our shower leaks and the wood trim
by the tub is rotting. What fun it is to shred the wood AND the drywall.
What started as a finger hole is now progressing to be about 6 inches tall
into the drywall. They can just about crawl into the space. I've...

[OT] Turkey Tricks by
Pat
If you're like me, you like leftover turkey, but you don't like how dry it
gets, and all the gravy is long gone. What to do?
I take the unfinished carcass and put it back in the roaster, add 2-3 cups
of water, put the lid on and heat it up on top of the stove. The water makes
steam, which brings...

OT Update on the Store Down the Street by
jmcquown
Some of you might remember I was dismayed at the manner in which the store
down the street, quite convenient, had gone downhill after the original
owner of 20+ years sold it. Long story short, bad produce, nearly empty
shelves, freezer units constantly going on the fritz, expired cheeses...

Whitebait OT by
Bev
Before telling this story I need to explain about whitebait.
They are a New Zealand delicacy, tiny little fish caught in shoals with nets
in certain seasons, usually near river mouths. I have seen Chinese
whitebait but don't like them as much as the New Zealand variety.
DH is addicted to these...

Hi-res kitty shots by
Karen AKA Kajikit
Santa Claus brought me a brand new digital camera, and he came a month
early... I was playing with it yesterday and taking shots of my two
favourite models, Scouty and Silver while they were washing each
other, and then later when Silver was playing with the camera strap...
I've got a lot to learn...

Fluffy SP is unwell by
Bev
Poor Fluffy, she picked the weekend to get some nasty bladder infection. I
had to take her to the vet on Sunday as she was spending most of her time in
the litter box.
He gave her an injection and I have to give her pills for a week, something
I am not looking forward to as getting pills into her...

My Third Essayby Qui Gun Kit by
Pamela Shirk
Why is it that something that you do will be ok with one of the gang and get
you a face whipping by your own mother? Cap'n Pine Cone esq. has been
teaching me SO much. He taught me to grab the d-thing by the tail and hang
on as he runs through the house. He taught me to sneak up to SSG Huey...

Cleaning out the litter box by
Hans Schrøder
I think I have got control over what my two Devon Rex cats, Teti and
Tinùviel, eat and drink. They are indoor cats, and by that they don't go
stealing food anywhere else.
So, after having taken care of them for about four years now, I am
convinced, and somewhat confused: They eat and drink less...

OT - Help! Gift suggestions urgently needed by
Yoj
Two of the newsgroups I subscribe to have a Secret Santa gift exchange every
year. It is a lot of fun. The gifts aren't supposed to cost more than $15,
and, since people live all over the world, it's good to give something that
represents the place you live.
I live in Southern California. Both...

[OT] Why we love children - humor by
CatNipped
A kindergarten pupil told his teacher he'd found a cat, but it was dead.
"How do you know that the cat was dead?" she asked her pupil. "Because I
p*ssed in its ear and it didn't move," answered the child innocently. You
did WHAT ? ! ?" the teacher exclaimed in surprise. "You know," explained...

It's official!! by

Miss Lilly-Whiskers was officially adopted by clan Miles today. All her
paperwork has been signed off by Cats Protection, and I am now the proud
slave of a 2lb fur ball. :o)
The other cats seem happy about it too. Tiger was playing "chase and
pounce" with Lilly for well over an hour this morning....

Another boat adventure for Cinder and Rosie by
Annie Wxill
This weekend Jim and I went by boat to a marina about 20 miles from here.
At our speed, that is about 3 hours.
We planned to take Cinder and Rosie, but not sure about Friday's weather
forecast of wind and rain. That could make crossing the bay a little rough.
It would be fine for us, but we are...

Anyway, for those on the card list, cards to USA addresses went into

SNOW! by
Helen Miles
His Royal Feline Lordship Tiger is utterly horrified. Last night,
Cardiff had the best part of 3" of snow. This now means that himself
will get cold feet if he even so much as gets out of bed, let alone
sticks his nose out of the back door. He is appalled.
Of course, it's *MY* fault that there is...

Don't mess with Basho by

I was holding Basho on my chest while pretending to watch TV last night.
He was getting all kinds of cuddles and every so often I would blow
gently into his face. He then tried to nip me in the nose, but I moved
my head back just in time. This went on for a good 15 minutes. I had to
rearrange my...
