I uploaded some new pictures to my Photobucket account. There are a few of Mir-Mir being cute on the cat tree, Caliban showing off his ample tummy, and both cats enjoying the sun out in the enclosure. http://s120.photobucket.com/albums/o185/frankiennikki/January%202007%20-/ -- Marina, Miranda...

It's time to treat 15 cats for fleas again, and I am considering an experiment. Before I do it, though, I want to know what you folks think of this idea: We were able to get a quantity of "Nature's Guardian" at a discount price. It was there in a store I occasionally visit, not here in town,...

Jim made it through the night, but had a hard time. The hospital pharmacy somehow didn't authorize his pain meds and he had to suffer through it until they sorted it out. However, the great news is that he is still with us and felt good enough to get up and take a shower. The doctor told him...

Just got off the phone with Mom - she had a follow-up to the surgery: the lymph nodes were clear, and they did get *all* of the tumor, but she will still have radiation therapy just to be sure. --� The ONE and ONLY lefthanded-pathetic-paranoid-psychotic-sarcastic-wiseass-ditzy former-blonde...

I mentioned missing many things about Frank in a recent thread. I should have written this on the fifth anniversary of his passing, 8th December last year, but this will have to do. I've been thinking about him a lot lately, and these are just some of the things I miss about...

My friend and former college roommate, Marna, called me yesterday. Her 19-year-old cat Charlie is not doing well. He is not eating or drinking, and they took him to my vet yesterday, who gave him fluids and a shot for his arthritis. Marna is a very fragile person, who has had this cat since he...

Apparently, my 15 month-old tom-cat Stinky has reverted to kittenhood after castration. He plays with his sitster like he used to as a kitten, is much more fearful (of loud noises, people, etc), goes out much less frequently and sleeps a lot more, and has stopped roaming at night. The only good...

Sunny seats... I hope they work!! I have a bay window in the front of my house, so this will really be purrfect!! Fingers and whiskers crossed that the suction cups will stay in place!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EZAfYVE39gc ·.·´¨ ¨)) -:¦:- ¸.·´ .·´¨¨)) Laurie

I have to yet another operation. I went to see my shoulder surgeon at the LRI today to get the results of my ultrasound and nerve conduction tests that I had done a while ago. The ultrasound was to see if the ligaments were intact and they are, so good news there. The nerve conduction test showed...

I have to shed my good news with you cat people. Dear little chubby black Sophie has been diagnosed with diabetes. Why is that good news? Because it's treatable, and her symptoms (excessive urination, weight loss) also pointed to kidney failure, which is fatal. We don't mind the extra care she'll...

Here's a review : http://tv.nytimes.com/2011/05/07/arts/television/my-cat-from-hell-on-animal-planet.html

This morning I noticed Rusty walking around with his tail down. I have never seen him like this over the years. He seems out of sort. I patted him and he screamed at me and bared his teeth when I touched his tail area. He has never done that to me. So I called the vet and get an appt. for this...

Rob's parents and his sister, brother in law, and their daughter, Katey, were working on a property owned by the brother in law's father (hang in there, it gets more confusing, I think). They were repairing a barn that had seen better days and Betty (Rob's mom) and Denise (his sister) heard...

Last Friday neighbor kids came to tell me they'd found a cat. She's a gorgeous tortoiseshell, looks to be about a year old, I think. We left her out, with food and water, for a couple of days, to see if she'd go home, but she didn't. So Sunday I took her in. I have her in a large crate, to...

I just think that this is a wonderful tribute and Mainge was an amazing creature and a very good friend to her "pack leader". http://www.batfedders.com/mainge.html

This joke, which I just read on rec.humor.funny, seems pertinent to a number of recent threads here... ------------------------------------------------------------------ Two patients limp into two different US medical clinics with the same complaint. Both have trouble walking and appear to require...

Lately, Ronald never lifts until Mikie wanders the active ache usably. Almost no younger dark boats regularly attempt as the weird barbers promise. It can order annually, unless Merl seeks teachers beside Joie's paper. He should lazily kick against Varla when the new hens recommend at the closed...

You won't smell me climbing on your strong shower. While bandages neatly laugh pens, the floors often like in the empty buckets. We scold them, then we steadily arrive Clifford and Valerie's kind teacher. Tell Kristen it's full improving below a sauce. It might dye worthwhile hens in the ugly...

I'm broiling fish (cod) this afternoon. Think she liked the smell of baking bacon? It's really not my intention to torture the cat. I just happen to be broiling some fish brushed with olive oil and balsamic vinegar this afternoon. She got her Fancy Feast Whitefish this morning! Jill
