    Goodbye Aspen my sweet friend

    My beloved Aspen crossed to the Rainbow Bridge yesterday afternoon. My heart is absolutely broken as I write this and I cannot stop crying, yet I have no regrets as I know she wanted to go. She was so very tired, I looked into her eyes and I knew she was tired of feeling sick and tired of...

    What are the 3 most important things in your life? (Part 2)

    Its certainly hard having to name individuals! 1-My mum 2-My dad 3-my spouse Though no particular order on my parents Though given more spots they would be filled with my brother, my niece, my best friend (like my sister) and her 3 boys.

    What is your greatest wish? (Part 1)

    *hugs* My boyfriend is a two-time leukemia survivor, I know all too well the fear that comes along with that. Many prayers for you and your husband. People say money can't fix everything, but it certainly can help. My wish would be for enough money to help get my loved ones into more...

    Talkative Cat

    Just ignore him, or "talk back" to him Libby is a chatty girl, she talks to us almost constantly. If I don't "talk back" to her or acknowledge her in some way then her "chatting" turns into more of a "pay attention to me" whine

    Help! My cat is sick!

    Need help now

    I agree with the other posters - sounds like Levi either had enough of the attention and reacted accordingly or he was startled If he is a bit of an agressive cat anyway then I'd try the Feliway to see if this helps, or see your vet about possible meds to help with it and also of course remind...
