There is the latest of B & C, one of Joy in LA (notice what she is wearing!!!!). The picture of the tree in the Alaskan Garden is interesting. They planted a dead tree upsidedown and used its roots as a sort of umbrella garden. They looked...

Scene: my computer desk, 8 am eastern time, USA. Cast of characters: Myself, Gabby, ETwo and Isaac. The printer hums, and it gets the attention of Isaac, who stands beside it and watches the light flicker on. Gabby, wondering what Isaac is doing, climbs on top of my printer to get a better look....

Zooming away at 100kph, and suddenly a bird (a crow? a seagull? a magpie? something decently sized, not a sparrow or finch) decided to fly low across the road. Didn't even have time to react more than to say "No!", and swerving or braking would have been more dangerous to us (Joel & Cary were in...

Sending purrs for Victor's mom and for Tweed who are both having surgery today. Good thoughts and best wishes that everything goes well for both dear ladies. Hugs, CatNipped

You are going to hate me for this but it's a great way of wasting time. Sliding the pieces is really tricky although you can turn on the help. The part that amused me is that you can send cat pix and such to your friends and confuse them also,...

Two weeks ago, on saturday morning, my husband and I woke up to Louie sporting the third eyelid halfway up on his left eye. Only the left one though. We thought perhaps he had scratched it or something during the night, but rushed him over to the vet anyhow. Turns out it was a tooth that needed...

There's been so much real tragedy lately that I've quite lost my natural optimism & enthusiasm for life. Wonderful heartwarming events such as our lurker's donation to Hannah Eve's funeral do much to redress the balance (I'd like to add my humble thanks & admiration to those already expressed for...

Someone sent me this link. It's a tiny, tiny kitten that someone is hand-raising. It can't be more than a day or two old! The photos are really good. http://www.livejournal.com/users/fimbrethil/344936.html Joyce

Mega purrs for the time of the next hurricane visit. ;-)) I think a very good idea the next time there's a hurricane alert is for Baha's phone to be out of the wall socket... "Oh dear MIL, I'm *so* sorry we didn't get your calls, we had a fault on the phone line.. " Having to be respectful to...

Hi All, I've edited my Yahoo Picture Album for those interested: http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/prince_nigel_h/album?.dir=/11f2 New Nina Pictures, Yes! She's almost three months old, now and a fuzzy, adorable terror, she is, too. (Well, perhaps she's not as dangerous as Sammy, yet. G But my...

Sweetie was asleep on the couch, head on one of her front paws, other front paw over her nose, looking very cozy... except her back toes were all splayed out. For a long time. So long I had other things to do and couldn't keep watch on her toes. Silly kitty. TBird ----- hmmm

Yes, it is a kitty milestone. I bought a nice new humidifier this afternoon and there is a nice new box that it came in. Mattie (short for Matereka), unfamiliar with boxes let Stripey Thing have the box for a long time and just batted at him from the outside. That was cooler than snot as far as...

Grace, how are you doing sweetie? As hard as it is to get through, the wake and funeral is when you have the most support, the most family and friends around you to help you. It's afterwards, when everybody has gone home and back to their lives - that's when it gets really hard. It's every...

I really should be working on my lab reports, but I gotta write this. Mischief is curled up on the couch but her feet are sticking out. From my desk I can see the pads. One thing I just found adorable with Mischief when she came into my life was that all of her pads were gray except for one pink...

When I got home this afternoon Little Bit was very talkative, which is kind of unusual. As I've mentioned before, there are just a couple things which usually get her going - a dirty litterbox or wanting to go outside. It sounded like her dirty box complaint, so before I jumped in the shower I...

As with humans, our kitties all have varying degrees of smarts. My beloved Vanilla (RB), who was with me for 18 years, was a kitty genius. Her photo: http://www.waas.us/images/cats/vanilla-01.jpg Vanilla was a real sharpie, and could figure stuff out easily. On the other hand, my present cat pal,...
