Please do! I picture Oberon as a sweet orange kitty? I guess that's because we have a few people here who have orange boy Maine Coons. Actually, I don't know what he looks like. This friend has never invited me inside her house. One day recently, she was talking about her cats, and I said, "I have a feeling I'm never going to get to meet these cats, am I?" She said, "You're probably right." Apparently, she is a terrible housekeeper, and with 7 cats, even a good housekeeper would have trouble keeping up, so she's embarrrassed to let anyone see her place. I think that's too bad. I've had quite a few friends who were horrendous housekeepers, and while it's not totally pleasant to be in their homes, I don't think any less of them as people. One friend of mine had about 15 cats in her apartment. It was a very large apartment and some of those cats went outside part of the time, but the place was still a mess. Of course, it didn't help that she was a total OCD hoarder and her apartment was the kind of place you had to cut a path through junk on the floor just to walk around. And it smelled of cat pee, dust and mildew, making my asthma kick up. Not a great place to hang around. So we didn't hang out there. But she was still a great friend. I don't judge people on their housecleaning skills. My place is fairly neat, but hardly house beautiful! Anyway - a digression from the main point, which is that I have no idea what color Oberon is! (But I picture him as a brown tabby.) Joyce |

wrote in message ... My friend's cat Oberon is very sick - he suddenly lost weight and got listless and wouldn't eat. He's been in the animal hospital for a few days, getting biopsies on various suspicious spots (on x-rays) and internal sores. The vets think he has cancer, but no conclusions yet. My friend is still waiting for the biopsy results. Oberon is her favorite among her large brood of cats (7 in all). He's a Maine Coon, very affectionate, and well-loved by all the cats in the household, some of whom are pretty scrappy with each other (he's the peacemaker). Any well-wishes for him would be appreciated! Joyce my three purrers are on the job. Brenda |

I've looked online at some tropical island prices though, and most of them are out of my price range, plus you then need to get one of those planes that can land on water. What we need to do is pool our moneys together (the group) and buy an island. They sell them in Minnesota as well as in the Caribbean, I understand. Anyway, we could then have the catslaves resort where we and our cats can vacation in peace. Yeah, right. But it's an intriguing thought anyway. Pam S. |

Hey, wasn't there a plan to do just that some time ago among the then-regular chatters? I'd forgotten about that, but now that I'm reminded I think it's a mighty good idea. IIRC, though, only four-legged guys were allowed. Sorry, Tak. ;-) ------ Krista |
