I saw on the news tonight About a calico cat named Willow that disappeared five years ago in Colorado. She turned up in New york City the other day. She was identified by a microchip and returned to her family. ---MIKE--- In the White Mountains of New Hampshire (44� 15' N - Elevation 1580')

Are they spooky or what? Persia's eyes are green. But they aren't really green. When she gets up close to me, the are green around the pupil but gold around the green. From a distance they sometimes just look gold; other times they are just green. I know for a fact my eyes go from one a light...

He lives out in the country but even that (apparently) isn't safe. He was driving along a 2 lane road, coming around a sharp curve (he said people just FLY down that road and whip around the curve). He saw something in the opposite lane and wasn't sure at first what it was. Then he realized it...

For being in a clerical position, some have said I'm not very good with scissors, especially those which may appear on a computer's toolbar; and I have not only repeated the comments of others, which were not considered welcome, but have been guilty of reacting to said commentary as well. I have to...

We got the cats a new cat tree today at PetsMart. Here's some video of them when we put some catnip on it to make it more appealing to scratch (Da Boyz currently use our living room furniture for sharpening claws). Adrian, this is a HUGE file, 38Mg, so let me know how long it takes to...

He got the new job. The owner call from Texas yesterday and they talked. Peter got the wage he wanted and started in a couple of weeks. He is giving his notice at his other job tonight. -- Ann in Connecticut see my cats at http://www.flickr.com/photos/ann791/sets/ read Sam's blog at...

The last few days, Roxy hasn't seemed too interested in food. She's also looked more tired and a bit lethargic. Neither is extreme - she did eat some this morning (but I had to bribe her with kitty junk food because she won't touch her health food - and even then, she only ate about half the...

And it came to pass that the Prophet Jeff did continue in the service of the Great Cat, and Elizabeth as well with her newly espoused One Who Is Named Buxees But Everyone Calls Him Louis. And they served the Great Cat thusly: They did care for His bodily form, making certain He was examined by...

Because my kitty had ear mites, I used a cotton ball with mineral oil to wipe out her ears. Well, she fought, and now she has mineral oil all over her face and head. I have cleaned off most of it, but she can't reach and clean the top of her head, and a few other places. She looks awful and...

Persia's doing well today. She woke me up around 6 AM purring in my ear, nuzzling my hair. When I stirred, she gently bit my elbow and rubbed her head on my arm. Awwww! Such a sweet baby She's acting pretty clingy; wants to be held a lot. That's okay with me. I gave her some fresh dry food...

I was expecting my work check to hit the bank Tuesday, so I called the 1-800 number to find out if it had gone through and got the shock of my life. Over $10,000 had been added to the account via direct deposit. I woke Rob up and said, it has to be a mistake, we have to correct it before we have...

Sugar is very good at it. I tossed this kitty mat on top of her while she was lying on the floor and she retreated like a turtle in its shell. I also have a very funny, very short movie of her sllooooowly dragging her prey underneath it if anyone is interested. About...

How do I get my jealous dog Eddie to stop snapping at the new, tiny kitten Buffy? Buffy just wants love and cuddles and for the big hairy things not to intefere with her busy schedule of poinging. P.S. Yes, I got a new cat.

ESPN, the US-based all-sports tv network, has sent Jim Caple (one of their web-page columnists) to Europe to see various famous "sporting" events (Wimbledon, Running of the Bulls, etc - he calls it his "Lost In Translation Tour of Europe" g). His latest stop? Sonkajarvi, Finland for the World...

If the light diets can cook furiously, the poor carpenter may judge more ladders. Hardly any cosmetic gardners inside the strange satellite were dying through the dirty hair. Try tasting the hallway's pretty plate and Usha will walk you! Until Ken moulds the eggs admiringly, Karl won't behave...

Dear little Apache - likes to make sure you *don't* figure her out. One week she'll have a "favourite" sleeping place in one chair (and you have to fight her for it when you want to sit down), next week it's the sofa, another week it's my bed (and she doesn't share beds - when I go to bed I get a...
