First thing you need to understand...it's internets, plural. I plan to vote for you, but I expect a little cronyism. (i.e., I want to be a SC justice!) You are probably overqualified if the latest picks are any indication. I could swing a nomination for Jack, however. He'd vote party line all the way as long as the cat treats hold out. Paul |

I have to agree, and supposedly these new Feline Greenies show up on the tests immediately. (They LOVE greenies, btw!) -- To email (remove annoying hyphens) j-u-l-i at e-c-t-dot-o-r-g |

wrote: Yes I saw your posts about Jack and Jasmine....she is so gorgeous, jasmine looks very similar to her, very fine boned and smallish, except with orange sploges and amber coloures eyes. we had a blue eyed white cat when i was very small, she was also deaf, never meowed or anything, and after she ran away my dad never got another cat. He later moved and doesn't want one now because he doesn't like them killing the birds, but when my sisters are all out of the house and he can keep it inside i might get him another....life without cats isn't life!!! No truer statement! do you have any more photos of jasmine? i'd love to see how she looks now. are she and jack smurgling yet?? Haha, of course I have more pictures! http://photobucket.com/albums/a384/jackjazz/ Latest ones are on page 2, and they're snuggling all the time (when not playing). I bought a cheap cat tree at Wal Mart (35 bucks), and had been warned they were made of cardboard. I wanted to buy a cheap one and see if there was any interest. THERE IS. Unfortunately, the place I wanted to put it has tile ceilings, and with that spring-loaded thing that pushes against the tiles, it's no good. I've got it temporarily in the kitchen, where there's plaster ceiling, but it's not good. First of all, having a cat tree in the middle of the kitchen is a bit in the way. Second, she uses it as a launching pad to land on the stove and counters. So it's going to have to come down and go back to Wal Mart. (It's also pretty flimsy...okay for a small cat, but I think Jack's 17 pounds would kill it...and he seems to know it, hasn't tried it at all, and I KNOW he likes to climb and go high!) I'm going to have to build one from scratch, I'm afraid, and figure a way to mount it to the wall. I'm also considering one from this place...they look great, but are kind of expensive: http://www.kittykornercatfurniture.c...Furniture.html After so many years of boy cats, having a girlie cat is interesting! She only eats when she's actually hungry. I'm used to boy cats who would eat 24/7 if I'd feed them. And she's not picky!!! She's also developing a little, squeaky mrrrp. I love it! -- To email (remove annoying hyphens) j-u-l-i at e-c-t-dot-o-r-g |

I seem to remember you were going to have her deafness checked out what was the result? I did take her to my vet, and she said Jasmine's ears were very clean. But deaf, and she said most likely she was born that way, that it's more common in all-white cats. Her being deaf has turned out to be such a non-issue. The only problem is when she's where she shouldn't be, I can't yell no from across the room, and she's very good about making sure her back is to me so I can't use the hand signal. She's definitely developing some mrrrps and chatter. Not often, but it's cute when she does. Very high pitched and soft. Jack is just crazy about her and now he's licking her back. (She was licking him a lot, and he enjoyed it, but hadn't licked her back until the last few days) He is totally back to being the happy boy he was, and I'm so glad. And she's just a doll....crazy kitten, but so sweet. At night, now, she always gets in bed and curls up next to me. Usually has to play "Get your eye" for awhile, but then settles down and goes to sleep. But the most wonderful thing happened this morning! I woke up to find both of them on the bed, one on each side of me, staring, waiting for me to get up and give them some breakfast. That was what Dmitri and Jack did most mornings, staring at me as I woke up. Jack hadn't done it since Dmitri died, but somehow he taught the trick to Jasmine. (Or else Dmitri guided her and told Jack to resume the stunt because it made me laugh!) It was glorious! -- To email (remove annoying hyphens) j-u-l-i at e-c-t-dot-o-r-g |
