I have a 9 month cat named Nagin who will actually say hello. He does seem to get tired of having to do it repeatedly though. He'll only say it if you say "Hello" to him upon first seeing him after being out of sight for a while. One other person heard him do this last night and said it was...

I had the most disgusting wakeup ever. DP is gone to New Brunswick for 4 weeks of internal medicine training. He used to get up at 6:30. I'm lucky to be up by 8:30. The cats, particularly Smokey, are ****ed at waiting for their breakfast. For the past three days, I've ignored having cats in my...

going out to everyone who needs them. I got behind, have to rush today to host the Candle Ceremony, and it's impossible to go through each post or even thread! So my apologies for the blanket purrs, but they are there for all who need them. Ginger-lyn frazzled Home...

Hi, For all of you who don't know me I am John, Kajikit's DH. This all came about when everybody gave her advice about intergrating Tessie into the house. Realise by house I mean apartment. I am of the opinion that the intergration needs to happen fast and that we need to let the girls sort it...

FOOD WARNING! This subject of this message may turn you off your food, so don't read while eating! Natasha gave me a bit of a fright Friday night. Around dinner time I came across evidence she'd thrown up food a couple times earlier (no idea how much earlier). Through the next few hours she also...

It is NOT a good idea to have a cat on your chest!!! I'm much much better now, but last weekend i was coughing and hacking and had a lot of times when i really couldn't breathe. And Mayhem, loves to curl up next to my head when i sleep and nuzzle my hands. And when i want to sleep and hide my...

Persia must be feeling the coming of spring. At 6AM she got the zoomies in a big way. She was dashing through the apartment, sounding like a thundering herd of elephants. She'd dash into the bedroom, leap onto the bed then use me as a springboard to leap over me, then whoosh! Back out of the...

I'd like to ask purrs for a celebrated dog, who is missing. http://www.cnn.com/2006/US/02/16/missing.dog/index.html Bohem C'est La Vie, a whippet who won an Award of Merit in the Breed competition at this week's Westminster Dog Show. But a funny thing happened on her way home to California - she...

I was just getting dinner, and left about a kilo of chicken on the bench with the other dinner things while I fed the dogs. I was only outside for 30 seconds, but when I returned the chicken had mysteriously disappeared! I checked the fridge, in case I'd absentmindedly put it back, but no...

Do any of your cats become possessed by evil during rain? Five of mine (thank God cougar is quivering in fear under the couch) seem to have become evil incarnate. Dilated pupils, looking at everyone as if we are all a potential meal (frightening even from a kitten), using meowmie as a springboard,...

Today a 6 month kitten arrived in Holland as a stowaway on a ship coming from Scotland. He was brought to a shelter somewhere and if nobody claims him he may stay in Holland. So if anyone in a port in Scotland is missing a cat/kitten, tell me. I have no idea in which shelter he is, only the region,...

Just when I thought Rusty has been doing pretty good in the past year, something is not right with him. Recently he has been leaving puddles on the floor. At first I thought the litter box was not to his liking and so I scooped the box more oftern to at least once every day. But again this morning...

I was dubious about allowing Nox to write her own quiz after Smokey's model--however, she has a persusive argument about freedom of speech. So, after a little discussion about the illegality of hate speech, I let her write one. However, I /will/ warn you that the following quiz is probably...

She wanted to put up a quiz to see how well-known she is on RPCA. She only has two questions, they're not multiple-choice, if you know Baby Eyes, you will know the correct answers. (1) I just barfed on the dining room floor, what did I do next? (2) How long did I spend doing what I did...
