Scarlett is one of those cats that "finds" things downstairs, and brings them upstairs to the livingroom where I am. Lately, she's brought me a sock, a couple of empty toilet paper rolls, a full toilet paper roll (not shredded, just bitten), a rock (from a candle display that has polished rocks on...

I was looking through my wardrobe for a fresh blouse late yesterday. It's just your ordinary wardrobe, with a higher top shelf stretching across the top of the clothes rail. I had taken off my blouse preparatory to chosing another. Something hit me so hard I was almost knocked off my feet. ...

I just saw a news blurb that said Abu Dabi gave 100 *million* dollars to hurricane Katrina relief. There have been *BILLIONS* of dollars donated now. I reiterate, every single member of my family and all of my friends were totally wiped out by Katrina. *NOT A SINGLE ONE* of them have received...

We are having storms in Scandinavia, too. Some people have been killed in Norway and Sweden, none is Finland so far. Some 10,000-20,000 are without electricity in Sweden and Finland, flooding in Norway. It's supposed to die down by tomorrow. Purrs for all affected, hope our friends in Sweden are...

Nothing hit right here, thankfully, but I did run over to the neighbors' to hide out for a while. I was kind of scared on the way back because the view was different from up the road, as it would be if something had blown down or away. Sure enough, a big cedar tree was demolished right next to...

LO 2U All After weeks of getting by on a very clunky old machine MH (My Hoomin) has taken delivery of his repaired laptop. Not that there's room for it on his lap 'cos I'm there (when I want to be that is). He asked me & my seniors to purr for Abelard, Yowie's mum, and others in need. I'm happy...

It's starting again - huge t'storms here. Please purr for our safety. I have to shut down the PC for now, so it doesn't get fried, and take cover as best I can.

Just got back from TED and I'm still in shock. How can a it be, so early in his life? I noticed it yesterday, a lump on his shoulder. It was clearly not normal so off to TED we went. He doesn't want to remove it unless it gets bigger, so I'll be watching it closely. On the way home it occurred to...

Does your cat stare at you? Of course. That's what cats do. Ever wonder why? Flippy has just added a short article to her great website, Flippy's Cat Page, that tries to answer that question. There are also photos of three kitties who've mastered the art of staring at humans. Perhaps you'd like...

My mother had her hip replacement operation on Friday morning. She was back in the ward by noon, the surgery going without a glitch. She was kinda out of it for the rest of Friday as you'd expect, and Saturday left her feeling very tired and croaky because of the tube that has to go down the...

She had clumps of poopie under her tail, and she was even better about it that her brother was. Only a few low moans as I lowered her into the water, then she was fine with it. Of course, Tommy was there supervising, and Abelard also managed to get himself shut into the bathroom this time, so...

Purrs for all who need them. I've been gone since Thursday and got back home today. Tired, but happy! And Persia is happy and Peaches is happy! And the vet where I boarded them didn't forget to give be back their food, Persia's collar or anything else! YAY! Of course by now I'm an expert and...
