Hi all, This is not a life-threatening situation, but I feel terrible about it, nonetheless. Today, Pan and I were in the kitchen, and I stepped back at just the wrong moment, not realizing he was right behind me. I've stepped on plenty of little paws in my life, but until now, never with...

My indoor-outdoor cats just suddenly became strictly-indoor. Beginning today. We had our Christmas dinner today (nurses in the family have to work Sat. & Sun.). Because of the hustle and bustle, it was later than usual when DH started rounding them up and making them come inside. The sun was...

First, we are sending purrs to those in need. I have not been able to log onto my server for the past four days so I am going to try to catch up in the next day or two, but in the meantime, there are hoomans and cats alike that need purrs and we have identified those posts and are sending the...

A friend of mine has a computer attached to her big flat screen tv, so we downloaded it and watched it at her place tonight. The kitty was cute. :) But I didn't like how it was turned into a debate between science and faith, because I don't think it's about faith, in the religious or metaphysical...

The fact my husband spends much of his time on the road without injury or incident. That even accident victims can sometimes count on a miracle. I'll have enough money to splurge selfishly, enough food to waste without thought. (spoken with a mild amount of shame) Mutt is a very healthy senior...

Last night, /proud momma my daughter took her first tentative crawls in the -forward- direction. (Backwards has been mastered for some time.) Hopefully she is gaining some confidence and skill while at daycare today. The cats don't yet realize what they are in for :) I've been scrambling around...

I wanted to make a candle group for a kitty named Polly, and I couldn't figure out how to do so - can anyone help? Polly went to the bridge today, after being doused with gasoline by a 12 year old boy - neighbor of Polly's slaves. She was 14 years old. I would just like to get that kid by...

My son called and told me he's taken a job that requires him to be away three weeks out of every month, out of state, all over the country. I am going to have to take Bosley I guess. I now have 8 cats. EIGHT CATS. Eight cats. I can't believe this. Bosley is not going to integrate well. He's bossy,...

I'll never figure out cats. When Waffles was alive, I could always tell who had used the litter box, because Pickles would never bury her poop. Now that she's an only cat, she does bury it. Go figure. Joy Joy Unlimited Colorful Crocheted Critters Photos at http://www.PictureTrail.com/joy9

Boy I hope this works... A certain nitwit by the name of Stormin Mormon tried to reconfigure this monstrosity of a machine we have, and we've had nothing but trouble since. I can get only a few messages before the window starts reading "message can not be displayed." I have so missed everyone,...

In article , Fred Galvin wrote: It was a short story, in a magazine or maybe an anthology, probably from the fifties or sixties. Cats and dogs originated on the moon. They migrated to earth when their last big war...

So, I went to see the kittens in person today, and did bring a camera and did remember to charge the batteries, so here are even more kitten pictures. And yes, the big scary hoomin who is about to eat one of the kittens is yours truly. Go...

I would like to request purrs for Linda at the passing of her beloved companion of 18 years. Leon adopted Linda when he was a year or so old. He passed to the Bridge yesterday after being relieved of his suffering from advanced cancer and diabetes. Linda is heartbroken. Rest well little fellow. ...

I used to like the Rocky Mountain PBS, but then they decided that they would have pledge drives through every single really good episode they show. I just stopped bothering, except for the rare shows (like the Memorial Day Concert). Smokie Darling (Annie) (Quoted from the Sci-fi...

Ok. So I had to look back to her records to see how long she's been with us. May 17th was her spay. It seems like it's been a long haul but I guess not. She now spends my work days in her own room; weekends out with everyone else. She still needs to learn where to eat but in her room is fine...

Hey everyone, I've been so busy with classes and work and trying to get the newsletter it's been a little hectic. I had to drop one of my classes because it was getting so crazy. So my best guy friend invites me over on Saturday. I had just finished a 7 am -4 pm shift so I was dead tired. He...
