Tonight I arrived home before Rusty and went to the back of the house to change clothes. No sooner had I reached the bedroom than I heard a loud crashing sound and all of the cats scattered, tail over paws into the darkest recesses of the bedroom (bravery isn't necessarily their strong suit). ...

I mentioned missing many things about Frank in a recent thread. I should have written this on the fifth anniversary of his passing, 8th December last year, but this will have to do. I've been thinking about him a lot lately, and these are just some of the things I miss about...

Just read a story about a cat in Madison Wisconsin who lives in a tree. We are sending purrs to keep it warm. MLB and TuTu

As some of you have been following the saga of my problems at work here's an update (If you're not skip this) OH sent a letter to my line manager yesterday in which they said I was stressed by the work situation and my stress levels should be reduced, a copy went to the manager who has been...

I actually managed to get a pic of Lorelei looking out of the window. She spends a LOT of time in her cat tree, but I rarely see her looking out of the window: all there is to look at now is snow...and more snow...

My friend Hugh (Slave of Tigger, Chloe and Bandit) has been more or less continously out of work since November 2009 when Threshers off- licences closed. He's just been told he's got a place on a 10-week retail training course, which if he completes it will give him a very good chace of a job...

One of the resident cats, Fozzie, went missing from the shelter I volunteer at back in October 2009. We put up posters, put leaflets through doors at the time but there was no sign of him at all. We all assumed the worst. The shelter had a phone call this morning to say he had been found! ...

A friend at work's 14-year old Tabitha crossed the Bridge on Wednesday night- her family are heartbroken and worried for Martha her sister who is missing her dreadfully...could they have some purrs? Lesley Slave of the Fabulous Furballs

Here is a picture of my RB cat Tiger from 1991. Tiger was abandoned when I found him. http://home.comcast.net/~wrhamblen/pwpimages/img153.jpg. Bud

The number of times I have to utter those three words, through gritted teeth, each evening is astounding. The Yowlet knows all the tricks of the trade, he needs to go potty, his knees hurt, he's forgotten one of any number of his stuffed toys that he *desperately* needs right now, he's hungry,...

These are amazing 'before and after' pictures, taken from fly-overs of exactly the same spots before and after the waters rose. http://www.abc.net.au/news/infographics/qld-floods/beforeafter.htm Its amazing. Yowie

in the next few days to see why he's so desperate for food. Again. Last time I took him, he had blood tests and all was fine. They said he was a greedy cat, and he is. But it's not normal that has a meal and wants another within two/three hours

At first I thought she must be a chihuahua-cross because she's so little and has that slightly bulgy eye look that is more prominent in chihuahuas, but on researching it more, it appears she's quite possibly a purebred rat terrier. She looks so much like these dogs, along with the ever so...

We had all three cats microchipped. I was told at the vet's office last week that there would be a one time charge for registering each cat, included in the $47 fee to insert the chip. No yearly fees. But reading the literature they sent home with me, it says there's a yearly fee of $15. WTF? ...

Just to let my friends here know that I have taken my Facebook page down. I wanted to mention this just so nobody would think they were "un-friended." Also some friendly advice: if anyone ever sends you a greeting card that looks like it might have originated on Facebook, don't open it! It wreaked...

One of my niece's 'feral' foster kittens (she probably went to her new home yesterday). That's my sister she's loving on. http://www.flickr.com/photos/deinin/5300025817/in/photostream/ -- Marina, Miranda and Caliban. In loving memory of Frank and Nikki.

I have finally managed to get a few pictures of Smudge and while not the best they do give you an idea of what she looks like. I've included in her album two pictures of Barnabus. I think it a good thing Smudge is missing a tail otherwise I might have difficulty determining who is who from a...
