    Old Member Trace Tumblebrutus

    Trace and I and the rest of the Jellice Tribe used to be regular members here, but seem to have drifted away over the years. But for those that remember us, I just wanted you to know. Trace's life's journey ended this morning. In his many years he outlived prognosis and beat odds to the point...

    Naughty Cats

    Much of the Tribe has left us to cross the bridge over the years :( . Now days it's just me, Trace, Blondie and the Hobo.

    The "Missing TCS Members" Thread

    I still look in and read up every now and again, but I haven't posted in such a long time.  Most of my posts were photos of the tribe's antics, and we've all settled into the non-photogenic rigors of old age. Those of the tribe that are left still have their moments, but I'm not nearly as quick...

    Mischief of Jellicle

    Thank you everyone :)   Saturday the shelter where I found Mischief held a memorial ride for 2 volunteers who were killed in a car crash 9 years ago.  Our next to last stop was at the shelter, and while I was there, in Mischief's memory I sponsored part of the adoption fee on a lovely little...

    Bijou

    I am so, so very sorry to hear this.  I just found this thread this morning when I stopped in to make a post about losing Mischief.  This makes it a doubly sad morning indeed.  :(

    Mischief of Jellicle

    I've not been on the forum in a while, and this really isn't the way I would have chosen to post again.  Many of the older member of TCS had a fondness for Mischief, and I felt you all should know.  The new morning brought sadness to the tribe. Sometime during the night, Mischief Mistoffolees...

    Name this kitty!

    Macavity!  The swaggering bad-boy from the musical "Cats".  Plus, you could call him Mac.  :)

    Nirvana

    The Tribe's favorite blankie, laid out under a poultry-barn heating lamp.  Nirvana, kitty style.

    Have you ever lived with a cat that had Arthritis?

    I finally found one of the photos I had been looking for. The "Tupper Lair", as it was eventually called, started out as plastic shelves for Turvy Demeter to use as stairs and lounges because of her arthritis.  It was expanded and did double duty once Trace Tumblebrutus came to live with us.  It...

    Have you ever lived with a cat that had Arthritis?

    In her final years, Turvy Demeter (RB) suffered from arthritis in her hips.  She could still jump up on furniture and objects, but when she jumped down, she would sometimes make a little cry, or would "go to ground" for a few moments.  She was less social with the other cats too, acting kind of...

    Cheating

    I just went through the feline version of "lipstick on the collar". At Christmas Dinner, I petted my brother's cats for a bit. Just after getting home, I offered to give Trace some scritches under the chin; he took a sniff (maybe 2), and promptly smacked the straight up dickens out of my hand. I...

    Where's the time going?

    I was doing some straightening up around the desk and came upon "the book". The book where I keep the tribe's info; and noticed that yesterday was the anniversary of Blondie Rumpleteaser coming to live here. >>9 years ago<<. I mean, the BABY...9 years ago. Which would make her 10'ish. My...
