There's a box in one of those Christmas gift bags. The bag contains a box with a porcelain tea set my oldest brother gave me last Christmas. And the box is in a bag. So after a year of it sitting here (I didn't have any place to store them.) Persia decided hmmm, it's a bag and it has ribbons...

I have neglected my aquariums for a bit now so the algae got a bit deep and the plants are neglected and I have a bit of excess energy today and got irritated I couldn't see the fish so I took the tops off and started scraping. I waited a bit long, so it is a bigger than usual job and I am taking...

It seems that about every other year a cat story like this makes the news. Usually it occurs in some NYC apartment. Not this time though... http://apnews.excite.com/article/20041106/D866412O0.html

Tanada, did I miss something or should have I received our holiday card list last weekend? It's entirly possible that I missed it. It's been pretty crazy aound here. --Kim and Lucy

Dear Baha, I have tried phone calls to your machine. Emails bounce. Getting hard to get a hold of you. As I remember, you've got some computer parts. My friend Kath is scheduled to get out of the nursing home in "a couple weeks". And I'd like to build her something so she can also search the news...

I just received the 2nd edition of the Christmas card list. Pam noted some differences from the first, but missed noting that my address is on the 2nd edition is because of an address change. I'm going to be moving soon, and to save on the amount of mail I'll have forwarded I asked Pam to change...

Ping seems to be making himself at home more and more every day. He's getting that kitten-energy back, playing with the occasional mousie and wailing on the TED doll (yes I have one - it's ancient, dirty (I've washed it and all that cat-slobber is on it permanently), and I managed to find another...

I had a rough evening last night so my roommate decided to treat me to pizza, which I have not had in over a month We ate in the living room, and I grabbed roll of paper towels. Now this roll had previously been in my roommate's bedroom, and had been found partially shredded. Guess it was deemed...

The other night, Cleo Carrington Smith reacted in a strange way to something my partner Robert did. As a back story, I have a "flying carpet" that I sit on to watch TV, as I don't like sitting in chairs. I am a "floor dweller" and Cleo Carrington Smith has got quite used to me doing this and...

The other night, as we lounged on the couch quietly watching TV, Sweetie came tearing down the stairs at light speed, turned hard to avoid slamming herself into the kitchen cabinets, did a Bugs Bunny claw burnout on the tiles (why they weren't flying loose behind her and hitting the fridge, I'm not...

As I write this, there is a very contented cat being a wrist rest for my right hand. It makes it 7478 sort of hard to type. Well, now she's laying on my right hand and I'm typing under her -- it's a little easier. I can't deny my dear twenty year old Lady Jane Grey anything today, she gave me...

How about this? One of my two Devon Rex cats, Teti, found a new way of having a good time this morning. We were playing as usual, me trying to catch him, him running two feet ahead of me until he surrendered and asked to be picked up and cuddled. But today was different. "Great Balls of Fire" with...

Arrrrrrrggh, the daily grind. I hate to say it, but ever since school started back up again, there haven't been that many animals. In one sense that's good, you don't have a ton of dogs to walk. On the other hand it gets quite boring after a while. Then I'm finding myself trying to find...

I really should be studying.......... But Imp is in a frisky mood. I know that when his tail starts twiching, so I grabbed the laser pointer. He immediately started to chase it. Even though he's done this before......... The red bug had to DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This concerns d-pets, but you can apply it to cats, too. Well, some of it, anyway... :) Joyce ----------------------------------------- Thanks for our small-brained friends Eileen Mitchell San Francisco Chronicle Saturday, November 13, 2004
