-On the first day of creation God created the cat. -On the second day God created man to serve the cat. -On the third day God created all the animals of earth to serve as potential food for the cat. -On the fourth day God created honest toil so man could labour for the good of the cat.

I had a very strange dream. It involved me visiting my parents. I went downstairs (they don't have a downstairs!) and I saw a big pretty fluffy tortie. I picked the cat up and carried it upstairs. What's this, I asked? Dad replied, "That's Jonathan. He's not feeling very well, we'll have...

Saturday, April 16, 2005 We load up the canoe on top of the Land Rover, and head out to a place on Lake Monroe called Pine Grove. There is a public access ramp for the lake there, and it is near the main stream (Salt Creek) that feeds the lake (Lake Monroe is a man-made lake, created when they...

Pippin is now 7 years old, and officially "senior" (not to be confused with "geriatric"). He accompanied me to his annual check-up, moaning and groaning, and occasionally howling. He tolerated the usual pokes and prods: teeth, eyes, ears look good. He got two booster shots for rabies and FeLV. And...

Stinky is really full of pepper today. He began it by clawing the carpet on the stairs, which he hardly ever does. He's had several greebling hunts already, hurked a hairball on my quilt, and made a daring, five-foot leap from the kitchen counter to the dining room table, where he landed right on...

I was sitting on the floor watching my 3 week old kits trying to play. There must have been some greebling hatchling around, because they would toddle along and suddenly start patting the floor, shuffling their feet along like a tap dancer. The greeblitzens must have jumped up and attacked them,...

This is Sgt. Huey here. I have a serious complaint to make about my paw. Tonight I gave him an honor and let him smell my feet. Was Paw thrilled? Did he sniff my feet? NO! He just shoved them off of his face and told me to let him read. PAW IS UNFAIR!!! He finally rubbed my head with his...

We were away over the weekend. We took Boone with us and Oliver went to the kitty kennel as he would not have appreciated the long car ride. When we picked Oliver up on Sunday Boone made sure to lay right up against the carrier and would occasionally look in at Oliver making sure he was OK. When...

Captain and Stanley both LOVE interactive wand-style kitty toys. Captain, in particular, goes nuts for the ones that look like a miniature feather-duster attached to a long wand. He completely de-feathered the first one I gave them by constantly playing, stalking, and fighting with it. So, as...

Mickey is one my my nearest neighbor's cats - he's about 13 years old, and the neighborhood champion mouser ... or he used to be. I have eleven, most of whom don't particularly like Mickey; two of whom get in fights with him from time to time. Last fall, Mickey moved in with me and my cats. He...

Harley is a small Siamese mix. She has the most unusual eyes i have ever seen. They are opal. Whitish, with sparkles of different colors. She lives with Smoky, a big grey boycat. Their prime slave is a sweet man who drives a scooter during the day; saving the electric wheelchair for maneuvering...

Bandit is in my office lying on a nice warm patch of sunshine. About 3 inches in front of her nose is a half dead mosquito. Sammy is lying about six inches away from Bandit, nose facing nose, staring intently at the fluttering mosquito. Every time Sammy extends her paw to grab the...

Has anyone bought one of these for their furbabies? John thought Silver and Scout would love it because they could chase it... so we got one. Only when we took it out of the box and turned it on, they were at first alarmed by the loud noise and the blinky eyes - and then they ignored it totally!...

Hi the My friend asked me a question about cat food and I don't know the question. She has an overweight older cat and a slim 1 1/2 year old cat. The overweight cat is to go on diet food (she ate all the kitten food and the kitten ate all the regular food). My friend wants to know if eating...

I use google email I have 50 invitations to give away for an account. If you would like one email me and let me know.

This is as much for cat haters as cat lovers. All are drawn from personal experience. :) So I thought it would be appropriate to post. Our two cats are in here, perhaps yours are, too? 40 Reasons to Hate Cats http://www.briscoe.org/cartoon/cat_hate/ -- Briscoe Small World, Editorial...

Let me preface this by saying that by now I am the third person and I don't know how many cats to try out this particular thing in a bag. I am hereby convinced that whoever came up with this idea did absolutely no market research what-so-ever. Stripey Thing (3 years old) - has not come within...

It stopped snowing after about 30 hours; but the wind went on and on and on...taking the snow with it. The drifts got bigger and changed shape and location. But the wind is finally down to a breeze and the drifts are stable. The wind-driven snow-dunes look like sculptures in some areas. And with no...

Mom asked me to follow up on all the offers of help for my vet care. She's been taking me and my friends to the same clinic we went to last Monday for five years, but since we've not had to go there often, I don't know if it can be rightly said that we have a long-standing relationship with...
