Black water animal? by
Bill Stock[_2_]
Sorry, for being away so long, but I've been in the bush. OK, not really, but the creek trail is as close as I get.
Anyway, I was walking over on of the many pedestrian brides along the creek trail and I spotted two small black creatures playing in the water next to a rock. I did not stop to take...

Floki is getting very grabby by
Helen Wheels
Floki the kitten's going through a grabby stage now. Whatever I've got
in my hand, he wants it and grabs it with his little paw if he can.
I want the plate, he says. I want the cup. I want the mop, the pen, that
pair of scissors. I want your headphones, your socks, your pen. And
especially, if...

Anyone hear from Joy? by

I haven't seen a post from her in quite a while and am hoping she went
to the Facebook group instead.

Fun With Buffy by
jmcquown[_2_]
I always know when she wants to play because she starts batting golf
balls around. I sometimes rue the day I ever gave her a golf ball to
play with.
There are cat toys all over my living room. A couple of plush toys
filled with catnip (Velcro closures, refillable. I store dried catnip
in...

Now that Helen and Dan have come back... by
jmcquown[_2_]
everyone has left the newsgroup? I could keep constantly talking about
Buffy but I sure don't like feeling like I'm talking to myself.
Anyone got any anecdotes to share? Cats haven't stopped being amusing
in the last few years, have they?

Buffy found a new place to sit by
jmcquown[_2_]
She climbed up on the back of my desk chair while I was sitting in it.
I grabbed the camera and voila!

I guess this is what it would look like if cats could take "selfies". ;)

Ravenous kitties by
Dan Mahoney[_2_]
We feed our kitties both dry food and wet food. We leave dry food down so they can graze (but have to put it in a puzzle bowl to keep Ranger from scarfing it down too fast and puking), and I set out three dishes of wet food for breakfast and for dinner.
A couple months ago I noticed that Sammy had...

A bit about Trixie by
Helen Wheels
Trixie, my older cat, is slowly getting used to sharing her house with a
younger cat. She was six years old when I adopted her from the local
shelter, and she's been with me for two years now. I've no idea how she
ended up in the shelter.
In summer she's a medium-haired stripey tabby, greyish...

the latest on Floki by
Helen Wheels
Floki's latest trick is climbing up the kitchen cabinets using the
drawer handles as a ladder. He doesn't get up on the countertops
thankfully, but he's worked out that he can see what I'm doing if he
stands on the lowest handle and grabs onto the top one with his front
paws. I think I'm going...

Nice Play Session with Buffy by
jmcquown[_2_]
I furminated her highness and after that she felt very playful. I got
the fishing wand toy out of the hall closet. I had told her to "stay"
in the living room but saw her peeping around the corner... thinking I
couldn't see her. LOL It was too cute. Sorry I don't have a camera
built into my...

A display of tinyness by
Dan Mahoney[_2_]
A little over a week ago I was informed by Nancy that we need another cat. When I questioned the wisdom of adding another, her reply was "Or we could get another dog". Ok, another cat it is.
We found a tiny little black and white girl named Benni. The shelter says that she's 3 years old, but if I...

A slight Ooops by
jmcquown[_2_]
I have been doing some house cleaning today. Got out the big sucky
monster, which of course Buffy hates. She ran and hid.
I picked up her little cushy pyramid bed and took out out front. To
shake off the dust (her fur) and clean out the inside. More fur. She
sheds terribly, despite...

Just Trying to Annoy Buffy ;) by
jmcquown[_2_]
Turnabout is fair play. Buffy ignores me most of the day. She can
snooze right through me being gone for hours at a time and not move from
one spot. Doesn't even notice. But even when I'm stretched out right
there, reading a book, she's taking a nap. I know cats sleep a lot, but
come...

Smokey is ringing by
Bill Stock[_2_]
I was trying to find my phone the other day, but it was nowhere in site. So I said Alexa, where is my phone? Next thing you know, Smokey starts ringing. She lifted her head, WTF.
I think Smokey dislikes my phone, she says I spend too much time on it, that I could be spending with her. She has...

A masterful BCT by
Mahoney, DC
Saturday Nancy and I went out running some errands. When we got home I
thought it strange that Benni wasn't hanging out at any of her usual
places. When I get started feeding everyone their dinners, no Benni.
After both of us searched the house thoroughly, we figured she must have
slipped past...

The Big Loud Sucky Monster by

aka the vaccuum cleaner. Hoover, if you prefer. It actually is a
Hoover branded vaccuum cleaner. :)
I vaccuumed the living room. In the era this house was built there was
usually a formal "living room" for entertaining. My parents didn't
entertain. They still built a house with a very...
