If someone who says they may have your lost cat, releases that cat at your apartment complex, and then refuses to pick it up when the cat is recaptured, is that animal abandonment? As it turned out, the animal she brought LOOKED like my cat, but was NOT my cat. That's what has happened here in...

Here's a photo gallery of cats enjoying their hand-knitted cat beds. I poked around the site a bit, looking for the pattern, but didn't see it... but it's a big site, so if any of you knitters are motivated, you might find the pattern in there somewhere. Lots of kitties in this...

Thanks for reading. I've done a cat tribute page to demonstrate "Collaborative Art" for the undergraduate students in Digital Media here at UC Santa Cruz. The genesis of the page was my two cats Diablo and Anjelica, who died within a year of each other. Since then, we've picked up two more...

To give the Rubble family a bit more to do than sleep, eat, poop & pee, and attack each other (and our ankles :D), we took a few puffballs into the bedroom for them to play with (no, Persia, Weebs still has His Purple Puffball... the ones we gave them are the rainbow colored ones that Weebs doesn't...

We have been searching the newspapers and online for some time now to find another fur child to fill out our family. The last of our poodles died at seventeen years of age a few months ago. She went to join her twin sister who died last year. We still have the two cats. Jake the consummate...

Bev--I suck even worse at this one! Let me know how you do! http://www.bassfiles.net/parachute.swf

Here's something fun to waste a few minutes! You can make her (him?) purr and meow too. :) http://www.broenink-art.nl/maukie2.swf -PatM

The final scab has fallen off Lilly-Whiskers tail where it was cut by the ******* that tortured her, and it appears that the very end of the tail bone is exposed. I have a feeling that when she sees the vet tomorrow afternoon, he's going to recommend partial tail amputation. Please purr for a...

This will certainly drive you mad. One annoying feature - I can't find a start again button and have to reload the darn thing. Bev

Ooops, I said Persia was being too clingy. She must have read the ng, so she spent the night curled up on the afghan on the couch. I woke up - you see what time it is in the US? Not yet 4AM. I spent the entire night in bed alone! I woke up and called to her a couple of times but she was...

To all our rpca friends -- I cannot tell you how much we all have appreciated your kind comments, wishes, and purrs and purrayers on the loss of our dear Omar boy: Thank you all so very much from the bottom of our hearts (both human and furry); with all your candles, lovely thoughts, and purrs...

Yule have to excuse me, I'm not sure what day it is I don't wanna miss the party...I somebody stuck a bird in the oven I am Thankful for friends.

Just to re-iterate, when I made the new map, I thought Jill's RPCA map was no longer working. I was mistaken, Jill's map is working fine: http://www.mapservices.org/myguestmap/showguestmap.do?id=jmcquown Since there is no point having two RPCA maps, I've deleted the 'new' map. Jill's is the only...

This morning I was sitting in bed trying to wake up while I shaved with my electric razor. Sophie climbed up beside me and started nosing around the razor case. After a moment she marched to the edge of the bed and jumped down - and I noticed something in her mouth. It was the clear plastic...

I didn't want to wait until a vet was available, the swelling was getting too big. I started him on amoxycillin and got a sterile hypodermic needle/syringe from Gloria (she has a case of them), shaved the hair off a small spot on his shoulder, washed it with betadyne, stuck that needle in and...

Mom called me yesterday and said my dad is "not doing well". I've already acknowledged he is in early stages of altzheimers. He's a lymphoma survivor and has also had two surgeries for blockages in his legs, one of which didn't "take" so they did a vein graft from one leg and rerouted the artery...
