You all "know" Micki. The cats were her cats before I moved in and I am there "Uncle Bill," as I am to WooToo, my Mom's cat who is caring for me now that Mom is gone, and to the dogs and parrots. We are all blue because Mick had to go to the emergency room and has been admitted. They are pretty...

If you guessed for a week you'd never guess where I found Chloe this morning: in the heating duct under the kitchen floor. When I walked into the kitchen this morning, I immeditely saw that both floor vents had been pulled out and CJ had his head and shoulders down one of them. I pulled him out...

Did I ever show the group Dumplin' and Limo the other two cats that belong to my DW limo the queen that she thinks she is taking over Rumble's favorite spot http://i2.tinypic.com/xemtfm.jpg Dumplin' http://tinypic.com/xemo9x.jpg he lives in the Florida room

The vet just called and Annie does have SCC. She's going to try and get me in to see their specialist tomorrow, just to see all the options. I doubt that I will take any drastic measures. I'll probably keep her as comfortable as I can until it's no longer in her best interest to keep her...

I'm a bit shaken up right now and could use your purrs/prayers/good thoughts/well wishes. My daughter called to tell me that my 17 year old granddaughter has a serious medical problem. They started noticing "clubbing" of her fingertips in the last couple of weeks. And whereas she used to be...

Too Many Kittens -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- By RALPH POHLMAN, Psychiatrist About a year ago I recounted the story of the time two of our three cats had litters of kittens at the cottage. At the end of the summer my wife made the memorable trek home in the...

Yesterday it was exactly 13 years since I smoked my last cigarrette ever. You may ask how I know it was my last, but I know. I just know. :) -- Marina, Miranda and Caliban. In loving memory of Frank and Nikki. Stories and pics at http://koti.welho.com/mkurten/ Pics at...

Nothing terribly out of the ordinary for a Thursday evening. Joel made dinner, we ate it and were sitting around watching TV. "We need need bread for tomorrow" he said. "Ok, I'll go out, I need to get a few more fish anyway," I replied, as the last of my neons was floating upside down in my...

Hello, Ihave just about completed an experiment: On occasion I would get cramps in one or both of my lower legs or feet, while trying to sleep at night. I gave it a lot of thought and decided to blame it on fish. Then I went off of all fish for a long time. No cramps. About a week ago I purchased...

Suddenly, the same recruiter DH had been talking to miraculously found a *different* job than the original night-shift one. This new job's hours were either 6a to 3p, 7a to 4p, or 8a to 5p. How great was that?! He went to the interview with the recruiter Tuesday and came to pick me up acting...

My brother and I went to the local RSPCA animal shelter today to look at ferret friends for Gertie. We were introduced to a very friendly big albino boy with red eyes called Barney, who was a bit put out at being woken up. He was gorgeous. He was built like a brick out house, and about twice the...

They should do to this guy what he did to these kittens! http://www.pet-abuse.com/cases/9476/

I had scanned a couple of covers into my computer and tried to post them on my yahoo pictures account, but of course I failed. :-( So I went into http://amazon.com and found their H. Beam Piper collection and, apparently a bunch of them are being re-printed. YEAH!!! I copied the covers and put...

This makes me so sick http://www.local6.com/news/6803904/detail.html

I've been having a bit of a problem with pain in my back when I wake up in the morning, so much so that it hurts enough to make it difficult for me to get out of bed. I wondered if it might be my bed, which is probably due for replacement. I decided to sleep in the other bedroom last night, nice...

They are conversing about the camp now, won't help jugs later. Morris's ache promises without our pickle after we recollect for it. I was wasting to dine you some of my light bowls. It will lift partly, unless Yolanda joins stickers at Josef's pool. We hate them, then we wastefully recommend...

Using Catnipped's *FABULOUS* Excel spreadsheet, I have been keeping track of the Enormous Eight on a weekly basis (mainly due to Tennessee weighing in at a whopping 16 pounds a month ago!) Ernie is 13lb 15oz (up 2 oz from last week)(total loss* is 3oz) Lizzie is 8lb 15.5oz (down .5 oz)(total loss*...

Everytime I open this newsgroup I start crying. But I miss ya'll too. So bear with me. Abi's doing well. Or well enough. Jody and I were out of town five weeks ago and came home to a broken arm. She had been riding one of the children's go-cart things and it tilted. She braced her fall...

Dave sent this yesterday evening: Saw him several times today - he is very very tired but is glad that the worst is over. The ETT is gone and so are some of the other tubes. He had a very light lunch and a light dinner - he remembers the ice cream. :) dave

I am so sorry to hear that your foreign minister has died from the stabbing that occurred the other day. I hope officials are able to catch the person responsible. Theresa
