The things this cat seems to understand and do constantly amaze me, especially considering he's only been here a few weeks, and he's only about 6 months old. Incident after incident.
Insomniac that I am, I've been awake all night. Suddenly I realized I hadn't seen Deja Vu most of the night...
Just about 10 minutes ago, my guys came in for their late-night treats (they absolutely live for Temptations) and as she's been doing, Snowflake came to the door, where she knows I'll throw her some (I always try to tempt her with some from my hand, but so far she wasn't ready to do that. She...
First, know that he will be seen by a vet within the next day or so. I'm just wondering if someone has seen this kind of thing before.
Last night while petting Little Big Man, I thought I felt a lump on his side. I wasn't 100% sure because he's skinny, but he didn't feel the same on both...
It seems the recent infestation in this area of brown marmalated stink bugs from asia have found their way to my little part of the country, and into my house. I am finding quite a few every day.
On the same page I have a link for here, if you scroll down, there is another similar but called a...
Petco is having a pet photo contest for their 2007 calender. You have to submit a photo of your pet and tell them how your pet has made a difference in your life.
They also ask for a $5 donationto the Petco Foundation, which I'm assuming is a charitable one. Since it's Petco, I'm sure that...
I have been trying to find one of those cat laser light toys, but it has to be one that I can turn on and it will stay on. All the ones I've seen so far you have to keep the button pushed down for it to work.
I have pretty bad carpal tunnel and can't keep the button pressed.
Maybe I haven't...
There was a thread earlier on the subject of why cats try to cover up their food when there is some left, or they don't like it.
Tonight, while I was eating my dinner, Little Big Man came up to investigate. He smelled my dinner, decided he didn't like it, and started to cover up MY dinner...
This was a sentiment that was inside a sympathy card I received from the cousin of someone who was very special to me, and who died a number of years ago. I have never forgotten it, and it has helped me though all the other losses in my life since then. It said,
Eventually we forget that they...
First, Snowflake is still doing great Slow, but great. Although she won't yet come to me, and will leave towards another room if I stand up, she'll hang out a lot right outside my bedroom door if I'm in bed or sitting at the computer. She likes to eat with the others, and their food is also...
In my surfings I came across this website called "The Bad Kitty List." It is a list of statements, a la Bart Simpson, that you would insist your cat write a hundred times on the blackboard for their endearing (?) naughtinesses (is that a word? LOL).
The site has some really funny ones under...
They brought Little Guy and Rocky Rockette home today after being s/n, and honestly, I'm concerned about Little Guy.
As I posted a week or so ago, he had unusually large testicles, and the way he was cut left him looking a bit strange, like he only has one. Is that normal?
My other concern is...
I posted yesterday how much I missed Rocky and Little Guy because they had been taken to be "snipped."
They're home and although a bit stunned, are okay and hopefully will continue to be. In fact, I was very proud of them. I was told they were so good, well-behaved, affectionate and friendly...
I wasn't sure where to post this, so I'm posting it here.
About 10 minutes ago the woman from my rescue group drove away with Rocky and The Cat Formerly Known As Bosely lol (His new name, and his official one because it is now going on his records, is Little Big Man because I couldn't...
I live in Southeast Pennsylvania (also near Delaware, New Jersey and parts of Maryland), and I found out about a feral colony that might be living not too far from me, and I will be going to investigate in the next couple of days to see if it's there, how many, etc.
My problem is this. I can...
I hope you enjoy this one. Lots of helpful and fun info here...

Like, did you know that if you sptray endust on the wall behind your stove, and buff it when it dries, after that any grease splatters will clean up easy with a paper towel? I didn't. lol
I have never seen this before,and Bosley seems healthy, and nobody at the rescue seemed concerned, but I am still curious, and wondering if this is anything to be concerned about.
I know it is extremely difficult to tell male from female cats. In this case, however, there is no mistaking that...
Some archeologist, 5,000 years from now, when they unearth my apartment, is going to state it was a center for a pagan religion that worshipped birds.
He or she is going to state that because of the hundreds of colored feathers hanging from sticks they are going to find because I can't figure...
I got impatient waiting for my friend to lend me his camera, and I saw one today for $20. You get what you pay for lol. They will be better once I get better lighting and get used to the camera, but in the meantime, I have some current pics of Rocky (he's just about 9 mos now) and some of...
Well, at least in my eyes. LOL
She's taken to laying on the top of the back of the sofa near the window and looking out. But only, of course, if I'm not in that room. If she hears me even stand up, she's down and behind the sofa in a nano-second.
Today I had to go into the living room to get...
Seymour, who's being a really good ambassador, had been hanging with her in the kitchen, when suddenly he come in to me in the bedroom to be held an petted. Snowflake, meowing, followed him, but stopped at the door (as usual).
She watched as I picked him up, petted him, kissed him, and he...
