Wishing everyone a Happy New Year!
Same from me, Bonnie and Ganzi- quiet season for me, didn't do much Xmas and went to a friends NYE but left about 11.40 as they were going to walk up the hill and watch the fireworks and I had the start of a cold so I left early to be sure of getting the tube back (It runs all night on NYE but later on it's a very restricted service and I didn't fancy standing around in the cold) and was home just after midnight, alas the pub over the road had a late licence so they had loud karaoke and a load of fights broke out outside so I waited for that to quieten down then went to bed.

Lesley Slave of the Fabulous Furballs Oh dear! Well, I wouldn't fancy a noisy night in the pubs much less karaoke. I didn't have a drop to drink. What I did do was finish up watching a 'Downton Abbey' marathon on public television. LOL Buffy was next to me most of the time. I hope you get over your cold quickly. Have a bit of broth and keep warm with the furballs. ![]() Jill |

Wishing that 2018 is a lovely year for you. Sorry I'm late, DH was doing some work on my computer so I couldn't log on. He's back at work now so I've got my computer back. ![]() Judith I really thought I was just talking to myself here. It seems most people have gone to Facebook. I tried it, just don't like it. Computer problems, no fun! Happy New Year! The best thing so far about it is Buffy is incredibly cute. ![]() facing me. (She usually sleeps with her head down by my feet.) She turns on her side and starts purring. Looking at me with those big green/blue eyes. It's the best way ever to wake up. ![]() Of course after she's finished being cute she's all about "feed me". Happy New Year! Jill |

Well, Nipsy may be dying of cancer but so far he seems to be ok. What's odd is that for the last few days Nipsy and Scooter have had some major screaming fights, and I'm concerned about that. Nipsy did have something that showed up a few months back in an xray of his lungs, but we don't know what that was and I'm not having a follow up done because he was treated for an infection and maybe that was in the lungs. If it's cancer, then there's nothing to be done anyway since he's 16 and I'm not going to subject him to chemo or any other drastic treatment. I'm wondering if maybe Scooter is picking up some smell from Nipsy that's causing the fights. We cat slaves don't have much to go on with their health so we sort of have to see whatever clues we get. I'm hopeful that maybe the cool weather has them a bit on edge. It was 42F this morning in southern Florida, which is certainly cold for us but nothing like the rest of the south got this week. We had a league tennis match at 11 this morning and by then it was in the upper 50s so not so bad. We won. Good night everyone. Oh, Baby just threw up. Doesn't look like a wet one. |

I'm hopeful that maybe the cool weather has them a bit on edge. We certainly don't know what clues cats pick up from other cats. I think it's entirely possible Scooter knows something is wrong with Nipsy.

We had a league tennis match at 11 this morning and by then it was in the upper 50s so not so bad. We won. Congratulations on the win! It snowed here on January 3rd. Got a good 3-4 inches here on Dataw/Saint Helena Island. Practically unheard of! The power went out for a few hours. I went out for a walk. ![]() long wool coat with a hood, put on some boots with heavy tread, gloves and a scarf and went out walking around. I haven't seen a "winter wonderland" in over a decade. The flakes were big and fluffy. Thankfully it wasn't a wet, heavy snow. Of course this is not the norm for this area. There is no equipment for dealing with this sort of thing so driving is out of the question. Good night everyone. Oh, Baby just threw up. Doesn't look like a wet one. Awww, poor Baby. A hairball? Or just... upset/nervous tummy? I can't explain it but Buffy has never horked up a hairball. She has very thick fur (for a shorthair) but hairballs have never been an issue. I do groom her using the Furminator tool, but not as often as I should. Persia (RB 2014) had much shorter fur. And a sensitive tummy. When she started making that sound... I never knew what might come up. The worst was a wet bunch of grey fur. gak Thank you, Buffy, for not throwing up. Jill |

There is no equipment for dealing with this sort of thing so driving is out of the question. This is my third winter here and it's the first real winter. Last year winter came on a Sunday. This year we actually have had days where it was under 40F in the morning. It still gets near 60 during the day, but I did turn the heat on once or twice. Nipsy has been sniffling but he's had that before so I'm hopeful that it's just allergies. He is due for a vet checkup so I"ll have to arrange theat. Glad everyone seems to be ok. |
