    Need Help with Soft Paws

    Thank you for your suggestions. I'll try keeping him busy. He is very food motivated but doesn't play with toys hardly at all. Catnip though, now he's VERY fond of that! That's a fantastic idea to get him to stop chewing. I agree that something, somewhere will get clawed. He just enjoys...

    Need Help with Soft Paws

    I have two male cats, one three year old and one five year old. For about six months now they've both been wearing soft paws without any problems (we got new furniture and didn't want either of them scratching it accidently). Recently though my five year old (Julius) has started to bite his...

    did you get to pick out your cat? Did you want to?

    Let's see.... Dogs: Honey - My parents bought Honey from a local petstore for us when I was 11 years old. She was an outside dog for the first nine years of her life, then when I moved out I took her with me. She's the best dog ever, I love her to pieces. Cody - We had been toying with the...

    Wedding Problems

    Wow, you guys have fantastic ideas! I would much prefer a small ceremony to a large one, lol. I guess I just don't want half of the world looking at me for more than 30 seconds I talked to Dave about it today at lunch, and he said "If that's what you want, then that's fine." I'm going to...

    Well, the church is kind of out in the middle of nowhere, so it'll be quite a destination!

    Wedding Problems

    We can't afford to live apart, each of us helps pay the bills. He can't move back in with his parents as it's too far from work, it's the same problem with me. Tell me if this idea sounds cheesy (thanks katiemae for the idea!!): In December have a small ceremony with just immediate family...

    Wedding Problems

    Lol, I forgot to add the other reason he wants to get married so soon. We both lost our jobs within a couple of weeks of eachother. His Mom convinced him for a while there that the reason we lost our jobs at the same time was because "God was out to punish us." Now, we've talked it over and...

    Wedding Problems

    Ok, this is probably going to be pretty long, so if you don't feel like reading it please skip on, I won't mind [:P] My fiance and I have been engaged since Valentine's Day (aw, isn't that sweet, lol). I got my dress a couple weeks later (not my idea, future-mil got it for me). We planned on...

    Cat-titude/Purr-sonalities

    The dogs: Honey: Honey is definitely the Marcia Brady of the household. She's popular, pretty, the oldest, smart, and sassy. However, she's also very sweet, a real joy to be around, and has the bossy attitude when she needs too. Cody: Cody is most convincingly a Forrest Gump if I ever saw...

    Hard stomach - Please help

    We found a stray about 11 weeks ago. Dave just recently lost his job and we haven't had the funds to get her spayed yet, but we have had her wormed and she was healthy. Just this past couple of days I noticed that her stomach is getting huge. She's acting normal, still playing and chasing...

    Where were you six years ago today?

    I was in tenth grade, in Art Class. The chemistry teacher came running in, and told my art teacher to turn the tv on, they thought it was a suicide thing. As we were all sitting there watching, the second plane crashed. Some people came to school and pulled their kids out early, I think the...

    Got married, do I take the cat?

    I say bring Abbey to live with you guys. She'd probably love being with you again, and being away from somebody who chases her all of the time. You could always get another cat to keep her company if you feel that she isn't happy alone during the day, but my guess is she'll probably sleep all...

    What was your Pre-Adoption name?

    I don't think we've renamed any of the cats! Julius - got as an 8 week old kitten, named him Julius because he's orange Spike - adopted him from the shelter with that name Spunky - adopted him with that name from the rescue Brady - named from the rescue Amelia - she was a stray, she's the...

    Ill never try bathing him again... Scary little monster...

    We had to bathe all five of our cats this past friday (trying to keep down on fleas, saw one on Spunky so we decided to give all of them a bath). This is how we did it, and we did the squirmy, I-don't-want-a-bath-and-if-I-have-to-maim-you-to-get-away-then-so-be-it kitties first. Spunky was...

    Post a silly joke....lol

    I know a couple blonde ones: How do you know which computer is the blondes? The one with all the white out on the screen! An old farmer has a blonde neighbor. One day he looks over and she's walking up to him. She asks him "neighbor, I just got two horses, but I want to know how to tell...
