When I had a new kitchen installed in 03, I had a slim one installed to store wild bird food and his boxes of dry food for his nightly sprinkle. I opened it at 10 pm "on the dot"! and there was a spider so I swept it out on to the kitchen floor with the edge of his dry food box. He ate his...

That my computer is playing up in a major way so if I disappear I'm not necessarily dead :-) It freezes up, the cursor disappears and it won't even switch off on the power on/off button. I have to unplug it and computers do not like this. I might have to take it to the computer repair shop and...

Ten years ago, I got my first cat, a polite young girl named Betty. We fell in love and were together for three happy years, years that defined both of us. At around the same time, Suz got a little kitten named Spicey. And Suz and I and RPCA found in common a love for our companions. I found out...

I found this article on NPR.org. http://www.npr.org/2013/04/30/179845420/a-cartoon-tribute-to-cats-and-the-poets-who-loved-them?ft=1&f=1008&sc=igg2 I just love the idea of a book filled with cat poems, titled 'I Could Pee On That'. Jane - owned and operated by the Princess Rita

My neighbor, owned by Schwartzie, mistakenly bought pate style FF. Horrors! To compound the problem, it was beef, and poultry. Schwartzie insists on fishy food and gravy. So she gave me a bunch of FF. Woo hoo! I don't know why she didn't just take it back to the store to exchange it for...

If anyone is interested, Orb, winner of Kentucky Derby is listed as "favorite". We are sending purrs that all horses and jockeys are safe from harm. The weather report said it is a wet track. MLB and TuTu

Duffy has gotten into the habit of following closely behind me when I head for bed. I sit on the edge of the bed to turn the light off, and I have to be careful because I find that he has leapt onto the bed even before I stretch my legs out. I don't want to kick him, so he gets the right of...

Got up this morning and fed the cats...well a cat actually as Bonnie was eagerly waiting for her breakfast but no sign of Sarsi. Went into the bedroom and there was Sarsi curled up on a box by the window. So I said "Sarsi, breakfast!" Not a twitch. Dave said "That's odd" and tapped the base of...

Today is Holly’s 18th birthday. She has passed another major milestone! She is half-sitting/half-lying beside the keyboard as I type (her usual position when I’m at the computer) and looking up at me with her gorgeous gold eyes. Her paws are dangling over the side of the keyboard tray and...

How is your problem you had with your neighbor and the wall????

When I fry minced meat I always drain the fat off into a mug. It sets overnight and somehow when I get there is evidence of claws in the fat trying to get it out. Boyfie claims it is absolutely, no way in the world himself. Like he would ever do such a thing. He claims mice have done it while...

With the vet's help Leroy went to the rainbow bridge yesterday. His slave felt he was in pain and should be relieved of this burden. I sent her the rainbow bridge poem. I am trying to convince her to get another cat to keep Shasta company. ---MIKE--- In the White Mountains of New Hampshire...

A friend's older cat Leroy has stopped eating and is acting like Amber did. She can't get a vet appointment until Tuesday. He is 17 years old and his teeth are bad. Purrs are needed for his recovery. ---MIKE--- In the White Mountains of New Hampshire (44� 15' N - Elevation 1580')

My neighbor sent me a text that a cat had been run over on the next block and she thinks it was Buddy, a pretty feral young lad in the neighborhood. I happened to be biking home from, of all things, root canal, and when I got to the scene of the crime there was a very dead cat in the road and I...
