You'd think, having 12 cats, that I have *all* the answers. Wrong. Why is it, that whenever I'm scooping the litterboxes, the cats follow me around? Kittens especially. On several occasions Bam-Bam or Barney has stuck his nose, or entire self, into a litterbox as I scoop it. Once Bam-Bam very...

I will not watch American idol tonight I vow

I've got an essay with the above title up at my new blog, http://denisenoe.blogspot.com, and would like to what some cat people think of it.

I am watching American idol I can't stop watching but it is giving me a headache can't stop laughing at these people who know they can't sing worth a crap

Too Many Kittens -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- By RALPH POHLMAN, Psychiatrist About a year ago I recounted the story of the time two of our three cats had litters of kittens at the cottage. At the end of the summer my wife made the memorable trek home in the...

How is that, you ask? DH's employer has sent him to the Medical Design & Manufacturing West (http://www.devicelink.com/expo/west06/ ) convention & conferend in Anneheim CA! I dropped him off at the airport yesterday morning, and he's gone until Thursday! The convention doesn't actually start...

My parents have just adopted a 6 month old labrador. She is a yellow lab called Treacle (she was already named - appropriate given our cats names :) ) When we visit my parents we always take our 3 girls with us. We are visiting this weekend. My mum is arranging to borrow a stairgate so that...

Kitty FC has changed her mind about the new beanbag bed. If I offered her her old sheepskin back in exchange I'm sure she would now refuse. She absolutely *loves* it and it being winter, and she being an old lady, she is hardly ever off it. She darts outside quickly for toilet duties, gets off it...

My all time favorite game has always been 'fetch the bottle cap'. Last night, when the hoomin sat down, I politely asked the hoomin for a game. Hoomin Note: this means Sammy brought over a cap, dropped it on my foot, reached up and wrapped her arms around my arm until I stopped what I was...

Among horsepeople it is known that sometimes the vet does not "get everything" when a colt is gelded, and you end up with a gelding that behaves more like a stud. I don't know if this is a remediable situation in a horse or if the same thing can happen with a male cat, but I was thinking it could...

Hi everybody! It is a well-recognised fact that felines are experts on sleep. In this week's Housecat Wisdom, Mr. Fleez' answers the question, "What can I do to...rest at night?" Not an unfitting subject for a cat, I'd say. ::grin:: Stop in and take a peek. As usual, there's a cute pic of...

Take-out food seems to have special drawing power around here for The Boyz. Few things I make at home are as magical as the pizzas, the take-out Mexican. The boxes and bags with the special, steamy smells coming out of them. O Rapture! I have a Mexican take-out near me which makes amazingly...

RPCA folks first met Abelard July 10, 2003 with my first post to the group. At that time he was already a year old and I've never posted about how he came to live with me in the first place. So here is that story. It started with a lawnmower. I needed one, but I hate the kind that make noise and...

I am having cataract surgery on the 31st. Any spare purrs and prayers would be greatly appreciated. Lily's mama Lydia -- Irulan from the stars we come to the stars we return from now until the end of time

I asked Purina to send me the nutritional values of their Fancy Feast cat food. Here is the information that Purina sent to me. http://www.possibleplaces.com/Fancy_Feast_Values/ or here is the same data in an Excel spreadsheet http://www.possibleplaces.com/Fancy_Feast_Values/FancyFeastValues.xls

Guess what, guys, I got a Roomba! You know, the robotic vacuum cleaner. It sure is cute as it zips around the room, bouncing off stuff. But someone here doesn't agree. We've got one thoroughly freaked-out kitten here. ;) OTOH, the Big Dood remains totally cool. ;) Theresa Stinky Pictures:...

Take advantage of a great deal

And she took some pictures (she didn't think hey were good, because she had to use the flash, but I think they're so much better than any of mine). http://flickr.com/photos/45867313@N00/ Caliban is such a babyface! :oP -- Marina, Miranda and Caliban. In loving memory of Frank and Nikki. marina...
