My Indy ate Friskies cat food for most of his life. I believe that it is the best out there but have no facts. On day we ran out of his regular food and not wanting to go the distance to the regular store I went to the quick store and chose Whiskas. He likes to eat it and won't eat his usual food...

Congratulations! My grandmother quit as you have, cold turkey, and was rightly quite proud of it. Afterward though, she said she wished she hadn't been forced to quit (she quit after having a heart attack), not because she missed smoking but because she thought people who quit because they wanted...

So.... our dishwasher died. Kinda. It sprung a leak. Cheaper to get a new one, so we did. Got a great deal through employee discount on a GE discontinued model, about 40% off!!! We were able to get a fancy model for the price of a cheapo one. Bad news, delivery folks won't install. Called plumber,...

Skeeter has made the trip to the Rainbow Bridge. For the past several days, she would eat only if I put a few pieces of dry food in front of her. She still ate very little, and later she threw up everything she had eaten. She was getting progressively weaker. Last night, rather than spend the...

If there are any nurturing purrs to spare, can you send some for a tiny kitten who was found on the street yesterday by a friend's children who live in Belgium? It's a little black & white baby, and was alone on the street. She has been to the vet with the kitten and they think it is no more than 2...

The results of Crackles biopsy has came back and he has cancer. He has only one option which is a very expensive surgery on his ear and only if it hasn't spread to his lungs. An xray would determine if its gone to the lungs. The operation would have to be done by a specialist and I was told would...

While I was trying to go to sleep about an hour ago, I heard loud noises in the carport. I went out with a flashlight and found a huge possum, frothing at the mouth with a very hostile demeanor. Normally possums in the carport do not act this way, they just sort of ignore me or run off. Not this...

First somebody called me and aked for 'kaYla.. I replied, there's no kaYla at this # and hung up on her. You don't pronounce my name right, you don't get to talk to me. Period!! Then, I keep getting these calls asking for my deceased (since 1991) MIL. Some cretin just called and asked for her, and...

I don't know what my meezers name was before I got him, but the name that keeps coming to me for him is "Duke". He is a large cat - very long and very tall and probably weighs in at close to 13 pounds. His whole stance is BIG and his attitude is surly although in reality, he is a sweetie. He will...

Thanksgiving. Yeah. I'm thankful I'm back home. I'm thankful I'm not being bitched at and lectured all day long. I'm thankful I'm home where Persia loves me and snuggles with me and doesn't tell me everything that is wrong with me. Or everything that is wrong with everyone else in the family,...

A knock at the door yesterday afternoon. There's this guy standing there with a smile on his face and a young lady (12, 13?) who is scowling; she never cracked a smile. He said, "Hi, remember me?" Uh, yeah, you're the guy who bought some clothes from me at the yard sale two years ago." ...

I'm absolutely desparate. I am going on day 10 of a sinus/migraine/which led to tension and back to migraine cycle. I am taking what seems like four billion drugs that don't seem to be helping. I just took one I used to take a long time ago and while you are supposed to take it at the onset of...

Went to the pet store for some cat food. While I was waiting to pay, I spotted a package hanging on the wall, Peered a little closer. It said "Adjustable harness and lead for iguana". A pretty bright red harness, wrapped around the picture of an iguana. I didn't know they made them. Special for...

I'm very sorry to bother you guys again with my personal life and depression, but this isn't something I want/can talk to anyone here (RL) about and I just need to dump it somewhere. My former ex- brother in law called me today asking about Eric's guitars and he wanted them for his son, Eric's...

Hi All, After much urging, and promising to take care of myself for at least a week (Not just laying around like a slug and failing to do my heart exercises), my DH, Lynda, has joined us as a lurker. She says to say *"Hi!!"* and that she will write something soon. She loved Theresa's tales and...

I was just scratching Biskit and thought she had something in her fur on her lower side. But it's a very hard lump not far from where she had the surgery to fix that benign tumor thing when I first got her. I wonder if it's scar tissue or something? It's really hard, you can move it around. She...
