(OT) Thunderbird by
jmcquown[_2_]
I really like Thunderbird as my newsreader. It quotes text
appropriately, which people have bitched at me for years about (not
necessarily on RPCA!) for using Outlook Express and Windows Mail. "Use
a real newsreader!"
But someone mentioned Thunderbird trying to "take over their email".
I'd...

Libby and Custer by
nik Simpson
Custer wasn't to sure what to make of Libby at first, but he's started
playing with her, which involves complex games of tag. At one moment,
he's chasing Libby, then it's the other way around which is funny given
that she's about 4Lbs and he must be pushing 15lb. BTW, here's a picture

A candle for, Dulce Mae by

Mark Edwards' Dulce Mae sadly went to the bridge today. It was a great
shock, Mark thought at first she was just asleep on his pillow.

[OT] Attn UK People: O- and A-Levels? by
[email protected]
So, I'm not from the UK, but as far as I can tell, Jess was going for a LLB, which is a sort of law degree. When he says B L L B, the first B says the grade she got, and the other three letters describe the degree. He says that she's going to be a solicitor, which is a kind of lawyer, so that's...

Pics of Persia by

I saw two cats... by
MatSav[_2_]
Whilst I was on Summer Camp in Wales with two Scout troops this
year. One was master to the farmer whose field we were using, and
one was just sitting in the street, outside a bank, of a small
local town - getting skritches from anyone who passed, and was
prepared to give them.
The farmer's...

Persia's Okay (no worse!) by
jmcquown[_2_]
Sorry for the delay in providing an update on Persia. She's pretty much
the same BUT she's not throwing up the k/d kibble. I am still mixing a
little FF in with the canned k/d to make it more palatable. I'm to just
keep an eye on her and call the vet if I notice problems. She's been...

Shave is gone by
dgk
My neighbor Serene has (had) six cats. One all black one was Shave and
he was unique in that he was allowed to roam the street since he was
just miserable if they kept him inside. He would pretty much come and
go as he pleased and I'd often see him sitting on the air conditioner
waiting to be let...

Another Vet Visit for Persia by
jmcquown[_2_]
The vet tech called. The vet is coming back tomorrow to draw more blood
and urine so they can do further tests. It's possible there is an
with her pancreas. Or it's possible the kidney
failure is more advanced than they originally thought.
It costs quite a bit for house calls. But even...

Dot's song by
Takayuki
Dot has squeaky "Eeek" and a breathy "Eck" sounds that she uses when
speaking with me, but I've noticed lately that she has a very respectable
megaphone meow that she only uses when I'm out of sight.
I went over today as she was meowing in the hallway, and I finally saw what
she was seranading -...

Dual Head-Butts by
jmcquown[_2_]
I'm cat sitting for my neighbor, as you know. I went over a while ago
to feed them and scoop the box. Here's what happened.
Schwartzie and Fedders met me in the kitchen. I dished up the FF and
the kibble. Schwartzie sat on a chair by the kitchen counter. He
looked at the food dishes. He...

A few weeks age I got a cube for the cats at a tag sale. This one has
only one hole in it. They can get into it to play or sleep.It has nylon
sides. Lucy Lu will reach up from the outside of the cube and push on it
to flatten it and it will stay flat.
Even I can't get it to stay flat. I'm...

Breakfast - A Battle of Wills by
nik Simpson
The new kitten (now called Libby, since I already have Custer) is
determined to dive headfirst into my morning bowl of cereal, fighting
her off is quite a challenge, and one that she is winning at the moment ;-)

I seem to have inhaled a kitten by
Jack Campin
I have a godawful cold which has gone down into my lungs.
Every morning when I try to breathe through those gummed-up tubes,
there is a sound from my lungs exactly like a tiny kitten meowing.
It's loud enough for other people to hear.
(At other times it's more like a fax machine inside my chest. ...

8/10/2012: Persia & the Prescription k/d by
jmcquown[_2_]
I'm still very concerned about Persia. If she "nibbles" at the k/d
formula she's okay. If she eats like a normal hungry cat, she throws it
up. It simply does not agree with her. (She doesn't have diarrhea
anymore, which is a good thing.)
At daybreak, just minutes after I heard her throwing...

BCT after surgery by
Cheryl[_3_]
Hi guys. Purrs to all in need and just checking in to see what's what
and tell you a silly story.
I had a spinal fusion a week ago Friday so my mom has been here helping
take care of me and my cats. A few days ago I couldn't find Bonnie
anywhere! I hadn't seen her since I'd gotten out of bed...
