Since our move back to Cardiff from Edinburgh last week, HRFL Tiger has been busy establishing who is "da boss" in his new abode. The kitchen door in the house we're in now, is old, vicotrian, and when it shuts, is still loose. Tiger arrived, and worked out within about 3 minutes, that if he...

The furry masters are off to see their new TED on Tuesday. I've been unhappy with the vet I've been using for a while. It's a big mixed farm practise, and the small animal vet we usually use has gone on maternity leave so now we tend to get different vets every time we go. The thing that made me...

I came back from walking Bonnie, my d*g (and the bane of HRFL Tiger's life) earlier. Without realising I hadn't shut the front door properly, I went and made a cup of tea. The cats are ABSOLUTELY NOT EVER allowed outside the front of my house because the road can be very busy, so of course HRFL...

I spoke to Alfie's new mommy earlier. It seems that one very tiny 2lb kitten has absorbed all the lessons that HRFL Tiger saw fit to impart, and is ruling his new house with a very firm iron paw. Apparently, he's trashed the curtains, peed in the plant pots, shredded several toilet rolls, thrown up...

If we have any RPCA-ers in Tokyo, please could you email me? leopardusweidii - at - yahoo.co.uk Ta muchly, Helen M --

As you know, a while back I had foster kittens with very bad flu, who all found great homes. The people who adopted the pair of kittens Flannagan and Lola, have had me on "speed dial" on their phone as they had never had cats before and ring me up for advice fairly regularly. This morning, I was...

Dear All, I need advice. I am well ****ed off with next doors Jack-Russell-from-hell. The Fracking thing keeps yapping & barking and disturbing my nap. To add insult to injury, the ******* chased me twice this morning when I was out doing my rounds. I of course smacked it in the head with all my...

Please can HRFL have some purrs? My little boy has a temperature of 104* and is feeling pretty lousy and being sick - to the point he was sick 4 times this evening so ended up seeing the ER vet. It's thought that he's picked up a nasty bacterial infection or stomach bug. He's had some antibiotics,...

I've had Pandora for 4 1/2 years. In those 4 1/2 years, she's progressed from being a mega fraidy feral who would run when I walked into the room, to a semi confident madam who whilst very shy, will let me stroke her whole body as long as I don't take too many liberties. Recently, we've moved onto...

Folks, If you could keep sending good thoughts and vibes Dark Tigers way, I'd be most grateful. :o) I posted a while back about Dark Tigers big break re. ice hockey on TV... Well... The TV executives LOVED the pilot!!! The want a face-to-face meeting in London ASAP!!!!!

Haven't been posting for a while as I've been too busy to do more than lurk on RPCA, but I have to update you all with the latest Miles news... quite apart from Robbies adventures in DC whilst my parents came back to the UK.. I should have seen it coming.... I really should. It's not like...

Last night I lost my heart. To a tiny half-starved brown tabby stray cat. He came to me via a rescue group in Cardiff who had begged me to look after him as a favor. The person dropping him off with me said that he had been caught on a notorious farm scavenging and existence in a feral colony...

Thanks for all the purrs guys. Unfortunately, there was nothing anyone could do because the poor little chap had no bladder control left. I made the decision to have him go to Rainbow Bridge rather than live without dignity confined in a cage. I'm gutted. Helen M

I have a new foster cat (didn't take long lol!) who is a very sweet, very talkative little calico. I've named her "Chatter" as she has something to say about everything! She's also a typical Calico in that she is very certain about what she wants! Anyway, her back legs are completely wonky in...

Chatter the Calico has left home, and my ex-foster kitty Cleo got home tonight. :) The reports I got from her adoptive mommy was that she had spent the entire 6 weeks she had been in her adoptive home, hiding under the bed, sneaking out for food late at night, biting everyone and just generally...

I live in the house that used to belong to my Grandma and that my dad inherrited when she died 2 years ago. Nan was very into her "charity" work, in that she donated to everyone and everything. Therefore, even though she has been at rainbow bridge for over 2 years now, we still get all the junk...

His Royal Feline Lordship Tiger is at it again. Between us and next doors garden is a 5' high wall. I live in an old fashioned victorian terrace house, which I inherrited from my grandma about 2 years ago. Next door lives a wonderful old lady who has known me since I was knee high to a grasshopper...

I had a sureal moment this evening. I was talking to some RPCA friends in Yahoo IM conference earlier. And then it struck me where my friends actually physically were. New Zealand, UK, Washington DC and North Carolina. I was like WOW! The internet really does bring different people and countries...

We ended up back at the ER again this evening. HRFL has been feeling crappy all day even though he's not being vomiting, so I rang them for advice. They said bring him in for a check. We saw the same TED and vet tech as last night (who were really kind), and they checked him over thoroughly. Then...
