    heartbreaking

    It's been a while since I've posted, but I just found something and I want you all to see it. I'm not sure if it's been seen or even if it's appropriate since it is very truthful, and please delete this post if it is not appropriate. I knew I was touched, and misty eyed, when I saw the...

During the day she is fine and we feed them every 4-5 hours, but at night they sometimes go without food for 10 hours or more. Our other cat is fine but...

I know there is always a possiblity of that with anything you plug in but it is remote. Can anyone tell me if they have a heated bed (that plugs into a wall) and if...

    movies you can watch over and over and over and...

    Just throwing out a topic ... I dont know what it is about those certain movies that you can watch ALL the time. For me, I love Aliens. I NEVER get tired of it.

    Why ask why?

    If a lawyer can be disbarred and clergymen defrocked, can electricians be delighted, musicians denoted, cowboys deranged, models deposed, and tree surgeons disembarked? When cheese gets its picture taken, what does it say? Why is brassiere singular and panties plural? If a word is misspelled...

    switching food bad?

    Does switching brands of food have any benefits, or is it bad? Or does it really matter? Since having amber on Iams for about a year I switched to Nutro. Then after that bag was done I tried the Royal Canin Indoor. Now I have bought a bag of Authority. She eats anything!

    No Vinson

    I was told on Wednesday that my new cat Vinson would not be coming home this weekend. I would have had him here by now. There was not enough volunteers. They said next weekend, that there will be a few other cats travelling up this way, and it will be more worth the trip this way. Needless to...
