I didn't know it was your birthday too. Hope you're having a good one! Busy day, today. -- Joyce There are 10 kinds of people in the world: those who understand binary and those who don't.

She is two years old today, my little summer solstice cesarean section baby cat! This is the kitten the vet "Wasn't sure would make it" because she was so tiny at birth. Some joke, as she's definitely the dominant cat, around here! When I pick her up she feels rather like a soft and cuddly brick....

Okay all, I just have to say it, it's Nina's first birthday! My little summer-solstice cat, who was a premie kitten delivered by C-section and weighed three ounces at her birth, came into the world one year ago, today. =o) When I went to pick up Francesca and the kitten the next day, her entire...

Hope you have a good one. -- Adrian

We don't really know how old she is; the vet guessed based on her teeth 2-3 years when I was enslaved. Being a woman, I went with the younger of the two :) I therefore proclaimed her birthday, and certainly the anniversary of when she insisted I become her slave, as 1/6. So, a little early,...

I'm looking over at "Smokey" on the couch. Smokey's been an inside boy for over two years now. He's lying on his back with all his legs in the air and his eye rolling around to check me out upside-down, since the back of his head is on the pillow and his mouth is in the air. Smokey was once a...

It's been 3 years since Buffy's former owner, Carol Morgan, passed away. There was an invitation on the online community where I live for adopting her cats. She had a Tonkinese (or was it a Burmese?) cat that bullied Buffy and some other cat (never heard much about it). Buffy was the orange...

May all the cats and catslaves of Canada have a very enjoyable holiday! Jeanne Hedge, as directed by Natasha http://www.jhedge.com

Happy Canada Day to all Canadian catslaves and readers of this newsgroup from a former (-84-88) employee at the Canadian Embassy in Helsinki, Finland (now living in Vantaa, right north of Helsinki). -- Christine in Vantaa, Finland christal63 (at) gmail (dot) com photos:...

After going out for a bike ride with Nathan this afternoon, I mowed the lawn. Why, oh why, does grass grow so *XX!!** quickly!! Anyhow, I have a happy Waffles. She is out in the garden, rooting amongst the grass cuttings for mousies. Her tail is high, her whiskers out, and her eye wide. She is...

In my new apartment, I have an enclosed patio with high fences (my catbuddy RJ has no front claws -- due to his former owner). So now, RJ loves to go out and sit comfy on the patio and sniff the scents. And now, since I've been here for a couple months, there's this squirrel who forages around the...

You may remember a certain feisty calico called Chatter that did a swap with my new kitty Cleo? Well, Chatters adoptive mommy called this morning. I was concerned because I expected something to be wrong. Instead, she raved on and on and on about how Chatter was the perfect cat for her elderly...

Velcro is a snuffly cat, and has been for the several years we've had him. He is also hard to pill. As a result, he gets his drugs tuna flavored or transdermal. We have now learned about Lysine (an amino acid) that should shortcircuit the herpes virus that is apparently causing him so...

dh whipped some whipping cream tonight, about 12 oz, we were going to have strawberries bananas and w/c, but it was bitter, it smelled ok to me when he asked me to smell it but once whipped was rather more like blue cheese, very mild,... so the cats had their own treat while i had a smoothee...

It got up to 75 yesterday, so I opened the office & bedrooms windows. She was delighted! She spent hours cycling from one to the other. I almost hated to close them at bedtime, but it was predicted to get down to Freezing. I had hopes that she'd wear herself out, allowing me to go to...

Well it's not been quite the same this year as usual but the cats started the day with Sheba and had sardines for lunch Then whilst half the World were stuffing turkeys I was stuffing mousies with DaNip-they both loved their new mousies and has a great time with them then they got more Sheba and...

We had a delightfully quiet little christmas at home with the girls, and I took a lot of photos, especially of them enjoying their catnip-sprinkled christmas stocking... http://home-and-garden.webshots.com/album/555406681VAmKfu I hope your Christmas was half as enjoyable as ours...

The calico girl checked out pretty good at the vets. The tests so far are all negative, and he doesn't see anything wrong except "she just needs a few groceries." She's still going to have to be isolated for a while, just in case, but it sure is encouraging *so far.* He gave her the first round...

I just got the news that there are no rips or tears with any of the tendons, the bone has repaired fine and the rest of the test have come back negative. SO NO SURGERY I am dancing a jig right now. If I would have had to have surgery they would have cut my inner foot from my big toe running...
