Amber's bald spot by
---MIKE---
I noticed yesterday a bald spot on Amber's left side. It's about the
size of a quarter. I suspect that Tiger pulled out some hair. It's not
bothering her. See it here-

OT Photobucket by

I have been trying to join photobucket for the last half hour. I enter
all the data and then I get "There was an error in your submission.
Please confirm the captcha code in the box." What the hell is that?
How can I contact photobucket to ask? I am about to give up!

Happy Birthday Amber by
---MIKE---
Today is Amber's 16th birthday. She is doing well. The Cosequin has
made her walking and stair climbing easier. She is eating very well
right now. I may give her some catnip later but she doesn't usually eat
much of it.

OT--ISN'T THIS A CAT GROUP??? by
---MIKE---
I am getting discouraged with this group. There are too many off topic
posts and very few posts about our cats.

Try "Cosequin for Cats". It's helped my 17 year old female (Amber).
You can order it from Amazon.com.

Morning routines by
---MIKE---
Amber and Tiger are creatures of habit. They have a series of morning
routines that rarely changes. When I get up I tell Amber to wait on the
bed for her hug (she usually sleeps on my bed). I go upstairs (that's
where the living room/kitchen is) and Tiger meets me at the top of the
stairs. ...

Bedtime routine by
---MIKE---
About 9 PM I turn off the TV, go use the love glove on Amber and tell
her how good and beautiful she is. Then I head down stairs and tell her
it's time for Friskies (indoor delights), a snack that she likes. She
goes down stairs and I give her a sample. Tiger is there and he wants
some too. ...

Happy birthday Amber by

Sweet Amber is 18 years old today. She moves slowly but is eating,
pooping and peeing like a champ.

Taurine supplements by
---MIKE---
I am thinking of getting some Taurine powder to add to Amber's food.
When I make my lunch, both cats demand some of the deli turkey and when
I have chicken for supper they demand some of that too. The result is
that Amber doesn't eat as much cat food as she should. I'm happy to
see her eat but...

Tiger is at the vet by
---MIKE---
Early this morning I took Tiger to the vet. He needs a rabies shot and
a badly needed "butt shave". He has to be sedated for the shave because
he doesn't take kindly to being "messed with". That means he didn't
have breakfast and he will probably be a terror when I pick him up at
5:30. ...

To answer some questions: Yes, Webtv keeps long (read 300) posts at the
top every time a post is added. I was frustrated by this and took it
out on Kyla. I apologize to her for this. Webtv has other advantages
and I much prefer it over my computer.
Tiger is doing just fine now BUT he still...

The first hummingbirds arrived at my feeder today. This a year to the

Amber is hard to convince by
---MIKE---
When I feed Tiger and Amber, I only put about 1/3 of the (6oz) can out
at first. This is because Tiger would eat his whole half at once and
promptly barf it up. Amber eats a little, leaves and then comes back
for more - usually five or six times. When the can is empty, I tell
Amber that it's all...

Who says that cats don't smile? I caught Tiger in one of his good

Re-Naming a Cat by
---MIKE---
When I got Tiger at age four months, his name was "Tweedles". That
wouldn't fit a 24 pound Maine Coon! He responds to his name when he
feels like it.

Judge David Young by

On today's show a woman was suing a taxidermist for botching a job of
freeze-drying her dead cat. She wanted the cat's heart returned to her
so she could make it into a pendant. The judge awarded her $2,000 for
pain and suffering. He was very sympathetic but wouldn't it have been
better to...

Today I am going to the hospital for a colonoscopy and an endoscopy to

The purrs worked - thank you. Everything went very well. The only pain
was the insertion of the IV. I don't remember going to sleep. I woke
up less than an hour later in the recovery room. Two polups were
removed but everything looked ok. When my ride arrived I went with him
to the cafeteria...

Cosequin for Amber by
---MIKE---
I have been adding Cosequin to Amber and Tiger's food for about a month.
It's really for Amber who at 13 seems a bit lame. The way I feed them I
have to mix it in the food for both of them. Amber seems to be moving a
little better so I will keep it up. (I am taking
glucosamine/chondroitin for my...

Trying new cat food by
---MIKE---
I am trying EVO - a canned food by Innova. It's cheaper than Wellness
and seems to have similar ingredients. There are no by-products and no
grains. The cats love it (almost too much) - cleaning their plates
quickly and wanting more. It's about $10 less for a case of 24 cans.
For the time being...
