I've just been doing a bit of weeding in the garden. Every weed I pulled out, Baggy pounced on. I'm very greatful, apparently weed greeblings are even more dangerouse than newspaper greeblings. -- Adrian (Owned by Snoopy & Bagheera) A house is not a home, without a cat.

Well that second kitten had probably gone to a new home already, because I never heard back from his slave. But now I found a way to find my dream kitten and help poor homeless kittens at the same time. On that same web board where I found the other kittens, there's a woman who periodically...

Like Mithu, Carolines S's babe, HRFL Tiger went for all his shots and 6 month check-up today too. Unlike Mithu, he peed all over the vet, bit the tech and was generally obnoxious. He's in good health. We also met Mabel for the first time. She's a very scruffy, creaky ex-stray tabby, who moved into...

This afternoon, Dennis and I went 1 town over to have a seafood lunch at the beach. Unfortunately the car died on the highway halfway there. Some total electrical failure. We fiddled with the fuses for a little while but nothing was happening, so Dennis walked to a nearby Chevy dealership. They...

According to today's comic, it is the famous Garfield's 27th purrsday this Sunday. Didn't know he has been around for that long. Can't wait to see what he will do on his purrsday and what purrsday presents he is getting. Rusty, who is getting a new litter box for his purrsday and annivesary,...

Please hold prayers for Girly. Send her lots of love, warmth, peace, and healing. She is quite thin--not sure why she isn't eating. I feel it is a comfort and safety issue. She makes her self quite small and is very timid. She shakes the whole time I am holding her. Still doesn't come out and...

Well, Captain might have killed his first insect today. At least, it's the first insect he's dispatched since the kitties were adopted back in January. I first saw him attempting to eat said bug, which was about the size of a winged ant, on the kitchen floor. (I didn't get a good look at...

We have two Juvenile Delinquents, a Bodhisattva, and a little Hussy!!! I never expected it from Odessa. The girl's a flirt! Now I know why she likes to play with me and get get a few Mama-cuddles, but is all over men like nobody's business. She will roll all over Louie and our friends Jeff and...

It rained hard all night and was still raining this morning. The cats were in and had their breakfast. It was a bit chilly so I lit the fire in the kitchen and they both soon snuggled down upside downy head style next to it. This afternoon the rain stopped, the sun came out and dried up the...

Unfortunately, the Memphis show looks like it's going to be a bust. The way they've got it set up is odd from the outset. Last night was "by invitation only Preview" (allegedly invitations were sent to the area art patrons) or $20 at the gate. No one showed up. Having the show during the day on...

I was in Big W at lunch doing a spot of shopping. Suddenly a woman ran out of the toy aisle screaming "what do I do what do I do?". She went back into the aisle, and came back out holding her daughter, perhaps 3 at the most, who had blood gushing down her face and was crying loudly. A crowd of...

Well, the bitties and Li'l Bit had their first TED visit yesterday. The new paw for Gizmo and (formerly Tuxie) Norton has been down for a visit, to "bond" with the bitties. Originally, he had planned on calling Gizmo Ralphie (get it? Ralph and Norton? Honeymooners), but decided that Gizzie is...

I'm planning to make some chicken and salad for tonight; a nice, light meal for a hot day. I have stuff for the salad: mixed greens, tomatoes, avocado, orange bell pepper ... what I don't have is a clue about salad dressings. Mom claims she makes her salad dressing by mixing "olive oil, cider...

Well, some metaphor like that kept running through my head, as Ding lay on top of the laser printer, and kept rolling, a little closer to the edge each time, to do upsy downy head. He actually managed two rolls that appeared to defy gravity before falling off, to the strains of "I told you that...

I posted a while ago about a friends cat, who had to have organ biopsies. Hurrah! Results indicate he is ok, no cancer yet! Some abnormal cells in pancreas but could have been due to severe irritation. -- Sandra

The two went to get vaccinated today, and Spot had a followup visit to see check her progress. The two sang to each other coming and going. Course LB started, and I guess Spot was singing harmony. This was the first time Spot seemed upset by riding in the truck, in the past she has taken it in...

Mischief here, and I'm calling out to all cats in a plea for help. My meowmie has done a very bad thing. The other day I was surveying my domain and saw this intruder out on the wall. I whined and puffed out and tried to tell Mama Kristi that there was this intruder. And do you know what she...

Hi, When I first subscribed to this group, I expected it to have more stories about the prey brought it by our beloved cats than anything else. It doesn't though. I guess there must be plenty of these stories about. Perhaps they are so common they seem a bit boring now? Mognusticat...
