Of Winged Kittens In the meadow by the Rainbow Bridge A saint is taking care He's handing out the kibble And brushing poodles' hair He scritches all the kitties' ears And makes the ferals tame He even feeds the bunnies Saint Francis is his name

Once a year, a 3 year old small dog (chihuahua-foxy-cross) goes into 'false pregnancy', and begins producing milk. Each time, the good little dog raises a litter of kittens! http://www.stuff.co.nz/life-style/cutestuff/4400012/Maternal-dog-raises-kitten-litters or: http://tinyurl.com/2bwxnw3

I've read this before, but not for several years: "When the baby Jesus was lying in the manger he started to shiver with the cold. Mary covered the baby with blankets but still he kept shivering. Mary then ask all the animals to move closer to the manger so that their body heat would warm...

I managed to get a pic of Lorelei on top of her cat tree. I thought that was hard: getting it uploaded to Flickr took over an hour :( Here's the link: http://www.flickr.com/photos/ingold321/5328621165/lightbox/

Kyla telephoned me to tell me that her computer has died, and is going in for repair. So, she can't post here, nor send out the LOL cats she normally does. I lost my access to Usenet through my ISP, as is so common now. I set up an account through eternal-september.org

The hospital called my Mother today, and moved the date of her heart valve replacement from Feb. 14th to Feb. 2nd. It's a long story why. But, if anything happens, and my Mother can't get the heart valve replaced on that date, then there are no other dates available, for an indeterminate period of...

So far, so good: my elderly Mother's surgery, to replace a failed heart valve, is STILL scheduled for Thursday, Feb. 2nd, in the late morning or early afternoon. Thank you for all the purrs and prayers you have already sent: they have been working VERY WELL. Please keep them coming. I don't...

My elderly Mother has been in failing heath for a long time; she is 89 years old. She still lives alone in the big old house I grew up in. It has 4 levels, and 3 flights of stairs. She is having a LOT of trouble with the stairs :( About a month ago she was diagnosed with atrial stenosis. That...

I was Kenzie's third, and last human. I adopted her from a family whose young son had developed severe asthma. They were DESPERATE to find a good home for her, but they wouldn't even turn her in to a no-kill shelter: they wanted to be sure Kenzie went to a home they approved of. One of my two...

I must not be getting all of my Usenet posts, because I didn't see a post about the candle site for Tigger. But I did a search, and found it, with candles lit by people from RPCC. I saw that Kyla was going to start a candle group, but I never saw a post about it. In case other people also...

Be Safe in the Surf Australian beaches are magic - they're clean and big and free ... but they can also be very dangerous. Here are some basic precautions to help you enjoy your time at the beach: http://full-travel-review.blogspot.com/

Hello everyone, I was on this group a long time ago, but some of the people back then (just about 10 years) got mad at me and cussed me up and down until I finally just left. They were mad because I had a female cat in heat and let her get pregnant. She had a grand litter of 1, who we still have...
