Tiger does not like "visitors" by
---MIKE---
This morning Tiger was sitting at a window and growling. When I looked
out, there was a beautiful black and white cat (I think). It took off
into the woods before I got a good look. None of my neighbors have cats
so I don't know where it came from. I hope it comes back.

A rare black whisker by
---MIKE---
I find quite a few shed whiskers (and I save them). Tiger's whiskers
are usually white with a black root. Today I found a completely black
whisker. That's the first one I have seen.

Did Amber see a ghost? by
---MIKE---
Amber rarely goes down stairs - only to join me at the foot of my bed or
use the litter boxes. She also only meows to complain during a trip to
the vet.
Yesterday afternoon I went down stairs and heard a meow. I asked her
what the problem was and she kept meowing and leading me to the...

Amber out of character by
---MIKE---
Amber frequently comes onto my bed during the night but usually goes to
sleep by my feet. Last night she came about midnight but stayed by my
pillow. She was purring (she rarely purrs) and wanted to be petted. If
I dozed off, she would touch my face with her paw to wake me up. She
also would...

Resolve "Easy clean" by
---MIKE---
I just bought a Resolve "easy clean" It's a device with a long handle
brush and foam dispenser that makes it easy to scrub stains (from cat
vomit) in a carpet. It's only $15 at Walmart and seems to do the job.

That is a great story. I sent it to some friends and printed out a

was made of Gracie (I was afraid for a minute he was going to try it on
her).

Aggie is not doing well by
---MIKE---
Aggie is the shop cat at the Agway store in Littleton, NH. I stop in
every week to visit her and brush her with the love glove. She is about
19 years old. Lately she has started to fade badly and the store clerks
think she is "on the way out". She could sure use some purrs.

Wellness problem, by
---MIKE---
I just returned two cases of Wellness turkey. Amber wouldn't eat the
food from the cases marked April. I had a case marked June and she ate
that OK. I am getting fed up with the inconsistency of the Wellness
product. For what they charge it should be dependable.

Amber RB by
---MIKE---
About 2:00 this afternoon Amber started twitching her legs. I made a
vet appointment for 3:45. When I put her in the carrier she had stopped
breathing. The vet tech confirmed that she was gone. I left her to be
cremated. I'm glad that she died peacefully. She left a big hole in my
heart. We...

Tiger is a Maine Coon and 23 pounds is not unusual for them. He has
weighed that for a long time.

My house is "backwards". The living room and kitchen are upstairs and
the bathroom and bedrooms are downstairs (in the foundation). The three
litter boxes are downstairs too.
Amber spends most of the time on her heated window seat which is
upstairs. When she goes upstairs she usually goes one...

Amber again by

Most nights Amber comes on my bed about 5 AM and settles by my feet and
purring. Sometimes she will come earlier BUT always gets by my feet.
Last night she came shortly after I put the light out. She laid by my
pillow and kept "poking" me in the face. She was trying to tell me
something - but...

A better litter scoop by

I ran across this at Wal-mart. In the kitchen accessary section they
have what they call a "strainer'. It is the same size and shape as the
litter scoops that the pet shops sell but it is better made and more
rugged. It sells for $3.50. The scoop section is a wire mesh that is
just the perfect...

I have an "Ectropion" in my right eye. This is basically a drooping
lower eyelid. It tends to get irritated and bloodshot. The local eye
surgeon does not do that type of surgery so he referred me to a surgeon
at Dartmouth-Hitchcock medical center. I drove there yesterday (about 2
hours) to see...

My weird cats by

I have a large hummingbird feeder (48 ounce) hanging about one foot from
a window. Inside the window is a large cat tree with a platform about
on a level with the feeder. The hummers are very active - draining the
feeder in one day. Wouldn't you think the cats would go crazy watching
the birds? ...

Amber is showing her age. She is having trouble walking and jumping. I
got her a couple of small "steps" to help her get to her window seat and
to get up on my bed. I also filled an additional litter box in the
living room so she doesn't have to go down stairs to do her business. I
am already...

The subject tells it all. Today I am consuming large quantities of vile

For some reason, Amber refused to eat on Sunday. She spent the whole

She really had me concerned.
