As there appears to be no "cat talk" perhaps we can discuss the weather. Here in the Rockies, it is just like summer -- today. Don't know how long it will last. I heard one report about snow on the mountain tops. Best wishes to all. MLB

Got a wonderful surprise today!!! The foster paw of The Kitten came over and told me I could take him home today! Yeah! He's eating and drinking on his own, and using the litter box. The paw said that they kits rarely fed off mom anymore, anyhow. So he's home. He's so darn cute!!!!! The Moose and...

I've been participating on this ng since 1999, and yet I don't feel that there is anyone here who likes me very much, or values my contributions. I don't know why that would be, though - I'm a genuine cat-lover, I respond to other people's posts, I have a good sense of humor, and I respect...

I had to give the masters Advantage this evening. Gosh darn it, are they *****ed*!!!!!!! They don't even want their night dish of wet food. They're in hiding. You'd think I killed them. :-P kili

Lenny and I were shopping for the necessities of life this afternoon. After stocking up on pudding, cheese, spinach and vodka, we found ourselves in the pet aisle. Standing in front of the cat toys. Our three adult cats don't seem to care that much for toys... they'd rather lounge on the cat...

This morning we caught the mother cat. She is now in the cage with her kittens. They are now laying against their mother. The tiger kitten was purring when we first put the mother in with them. Last night DH was petting the kittens and this morning I was petting them. We think the mother was a pet...

I've noticed the more authentic (ie, not in a "cooking healthy/ light/ lowfat/ etc" book) cornbread recipes always call for shortening to coat the pan. Would it be a disaster to use spray Pam or something instead? I just don't have much use for shortening, so I don't see the point of buying any...

We had a fairly successful week with DH finishing 3rd in his national championship race with the Sports Car Club of America at MidOhio Sportscar Course in Lexington, Oh. The weather was terrific for the most part and visiting with friends was a lot of fun. Of course I missed my babies but called...

I get that too....I see the reply and think....what the? Oh well. The mothership must be doing the rounds...after all it is that time of year Purrs Angela and Gizmo "TJ and The Dust" wrote in message

Hi all: A friend of mine has rescued a tiny stray kitten - only 3 or 4 weeks. She has three concerns: feeding, worming, and constipation. If any of you have any insight, I'd appreciate it! I'll also call the TED late tomorrow and see what he says. We are travelling and out of town until then. ...

In 2001 you wrote a beautiful story for Helen about the Shard of Helen's Heart that Schroedinger took with him to the Rainbow Bridge and followed with a Part II about Emma's Shard. It is as beautiful as the Rainbow Bridge story if ask my opinion (ok, I know you didn't ask) :) Every time one of our...

A cat tree! The girls have never had one but it's one of those things that I really thought they 'should' have, only they're so expensive... we went to Walmart today and noticed somebody had a cat-tree-in-a-box in their cart, so we went over to the pet section and had a look and it was only $30....

Just in case someone is even slower on the uptake than I am, check out this Firefox theme. I just downloaded it and it looks so much nicer than the default. https://addons.mozilla.org/search.php?cat=30&app=firefox&appfilter=firefox -- Marina, Miranda and Caliban. In loving memory of Frank and...

Thank you everyone for you purrs and prayers for Angus. He passed away in his sleep last night while still at the emergency vet. They haven't been able to determine exactly what he had, but suspect a neurological problem or virus. Angus developed tremors yesterday. They will be doing an autopsy...

I know that everyone is nearly purred out, but could you spare a few for a couple of my boys? I've been begging the husband for years to get rid of the mini blinds in the small second bedroom. He just blew me off. Well, this morning (at 6:15 am no less), he found out why I didn't want the mini...

I was wondering if anyone on the list here has ever tamed a feral/ semi-feral cat? And if they had some recommendations or guidelines for going about this? Thanks. Fuga

I'm sorry -- I've gotten distracted and honestly I couldn't keep up with rpca and and and .... Well anyway. Those of you who remember Oscar, I would love it if you could send some purrs her way. And I thought you would like to know. She was eating great right through Saturday morning. Finished...

I had to do it. The neighbor's cat is just shudderingly gross. They said they would send out the proper authorities to investigate. I feel guilty because the neighbors are gonna *know* it's me who called and we're already not on friendly terms, but I had to do it. I've mentioned the...
