I have now posted a few pictures of Ozzy and Tiger in the RPCA Photos group in a folder called "Ozzy and Tiger," originally enough. (Has anyone else noticed that RPCA Pictures is almost full?) I took loads of pictures today, but Yahoo only holds my hand through uploading 6, so there are 3 of each...

Belcourt, North Dakota (AP) - A fifth-grade scientist says cat drool appears to be cleaner than that of dogs. Lacey Lafromboise, at Turtle Mountain Elementary School, earned a trip to the Native American Science Fair in Albuquerque NM by proving her two dogs have more bacteria in their mouths than...

I am new here, but glad thngs are OK. Always scary at vet cuz, pets don't know what's happening to them. I don't know the history but continued good health to Shasta. My photo albums http://public.fotki.com/Sonscere/ "IIt's not love that causes the pain Whenever a heart has been shattered, It's...

I had forgotten to mention this to y'all. You might remember my mom's cat, a funny shaped siamese mix that totally loved me and wanted nothing more than to be held. Well, turns out he's friends with a couple of strays that hang around in their neighborhood. So my parents decided to start feeding...

Ok, it seems that Dennis has a monkey now. I was just informed this morning when Dennis phoned me from Burma to wish me a Happy Anniversary. (It is a sheer miracle that the phones there worked today, usually we never get through in 6 weeks. But to make up for it, the satellite internet...

Okay, I'm a full time student that also works 4 days a week, so I jumped at the opportunity to toilet train my cats. Saving $30 bucks a month would be AWESOME!!!! Even with my employee discount( I work one day doing administrative work for a pet store chain), Swheat Scoop(wheat litter) gets to be...

Oliver cracks me up sometimes. He now listens to the weather radio. We have one of those little weather alert radios that gives an alarm when the National Weather Service announces bad weather. You can also use it to listen to the official NOAA forecast. It goes off every Wednesday between 11...

Last night, I was lying on the couch watching TV. Vino was really agitated, he kept meowing, jumping up and standing on my chest (Ouch, boobs! Why are cats' feet so pointy?) He'd give me one headbutt and then just stand on my chest like he'd conquered me and look about. After a little while he...

I haven't received a single message from the catslaves group since 19 February, and I can't access the group's web page. Did I do something? Should I have done something? Is it something I said? Help me, please! -- Marina, feeling left out

With the rains and cloud cover it has been warmer at night so I was on my patio late last night when I heard cats screaming in anger and challenge. OK with Maya being Maya that is not that unusual a thing, then a cat came flying under the wall and ran deep into the condo. Now that was strange,...

I need some smart rpca advice, please; I have never dealt with a mutli-cat situation, and am not sure what to do. I'd posted recently that we are trying to coax timid office cat Tiger into staying inside more; Ozzy has always stayed inside. It's working; Tiger is still nervous about the Scary...

Once again we have a couple of inches of snow on the ground, and once again Norfolk grinds to a halt with hundreds of school closures. Grrr... Anyhow, the cats are much fascinated by the sight of the birds in the garden hopping about in the snow picking up the food I leave out for them. Great...

He's back to being *our Mike* again, or as his daddy said, "You're back to your old mildly annoying self, Buddy!" We are getting ankle ambushes instead of compulsive pacing! Langorous blinks instead of fixed glares! He's even *playing* in his new box, in which the (very desperately needed)...

My 2 cats have been with me since they were kittens.. one now weighs 18 lbs. and the other 15 lbs. The vet said they were healthy and not to worry about their weights. I have 2 himmies and they tend to gain weight over time. My problem is that I am used to feeding some canned cat food at night...

I'm sitting here peacefully reading posts when all of a sudden, BANG! SMACK! That neighbor's cat is roaming around again. Persia was looking out the window of my (home) office and here comes that friggin cat. Persia charged at the window then smacked at it with her paw. (Scared the crap out of...

This morning, as I was leaving for work, I happened to look at my kitchen window. There was my 7 month old kitten, Chet, pressing the side of his face against the window, looking so forlorn! I went over to the window and pressed my fingers against it, and he rubbed the window like he would...
