It's been a long time since I have posted something here on the Cat site. I am an old member from back in the mid 2000's. Since getting my teaching job in 2006, I haven't been able to be on here as much as I would like to.......
My story started out with adopting Mittens on Jan. 1, 2003. We...
Hey everyone!
I have been extremely busy since August. We found out about our little girl in August. We started visiting her on Halloween and she finally moved in during Thanksgiving week! A true blessing!! She was finally placed into our home on Dec. 1. In 6 months, we will be able to...
I went to visit my friend, Larissa, in Alabama last week. While I was there, I met up with Cindy (KittenKrazy)!! It was a great day! Cindy made all of us a catered lunch, which was so delicious! We had chicken salad croissants, with pasta salad and cheesecake! We spent the day at Point Mallard...
After struggling with Mittens' weight since the day we got him (1-1-2003), I have to say he finally made it.
My baby weighed in at 25 pounds when I first got him and today during his annual vaccination/check up, he weighed..............
11 pounds!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I can't believe it! Here is the...
So, I have been contemplating when I should tell you guys....so now is the time!! I wanted to wait because I wanted to make sure things were going smoothly first........
Zack and I are in the process of adopting...no...not the furry ones. We are adopting our first child(ren)!
We've been...
I have a friend that is adopting an older child (9 years old, not a baby). Do people have showers for parents that are adopting? What's the custom or etiquette of all of this? Thanks!
Oh my! I checked the weather just now for here (Houston) and we are suppose to have sleet throughout the day. Brrrr! This is very rare for us! Last time we had snow was on Christmas day 2004 which is beyond different! I hope my students are bundling up nicely. Our school is an open concept with...
Ok, so here it goes...I have a concern and need your thoughts/opinions!
My husband and I moved into our newly developed neighborhood in Dec. 2006.We have had issues with some of the children in the neighborhood (ages range from 8ish-18ish). One day, I caught one little boy shooting a pellet gun...
I logged on here last Friday morning about 4am and we were starting to get some Tropical storm winds. Friday we prepared our front and back yards and got as ready as you can get for a Hurricane. Well, you cannot prepare for this no matter how hard you try.....
At 11:07pm on Friday night we lost...
Mittens is on Revolution and my dog, Watson is on Comfortis and Interceptor (for flea prevention and heartwork prevention). I have ordered from 1800petmeds before and had no trouble with getting and using the product. I have heard that there are other online pharmacies that don't require a...
I love this season's Bachlorette! Those of you that are also obsessed like me, please write who you think DeAnna is now engaged to! What are your opinions?!
I wish she wouldn't have ditched Graham so early, I think he would have eventually opened up to her.
Mitten's story goes back 5 years, but I am going to fill you in on the last 6 months. Ever since Mittens had a PU done in December of 2005, he has had infections one right after another. For the last 2 years, he has had only 2-4. Since January, he has had 4. He just finished Clavamox last...
With Mitten's urinary problem getting better, the vet made a point that Mittens does need to lose another 5 pounds or so. When we got him in 2003, he weighed 25 pounds. At the vet on Saturday he weighed 16 pounds. In order for him to groom himself properly he has to lose the weight. Until then...
Most of you know the background of my story...to make it short and to the point....Mittens started with frequent UTI's and then eventually he had to have an emergency PU done in December of 2005. He has had about 1-2 infections a year since.
Last month, he developed a real nasty one where you...
Not sure what is going on, but when I click on the yellow icon that looks like it has a mountain on it, a popup comes on my screen and I cannot upload any pics. Have I missed something? I haven't been around a lot lately...is this new?
I have had some issues with private messages before, and I think I am having them again. I have sent some private messages and I don't think they have gone through. How can I tell if they are getting them or not? Do we still have the receipt function still on here? Does anyone else have this...
Back in October when Zack and I were house hunting, we came across a beauty who was only 5 weeks old at the time! She came out from the bushes next to the model homes we were browsing through...and we felt so sorry for her, we took her home and gave her to my mom for her birthday. Here are some...
With the death of my father (he died from a massive stroke) on April 10, it has been a very hard six weeks. My stepmother has been very ill with being in and out of the hospital since last summer. She has very bad digestive problems and hasn't been able to eat solid foods for about a year now...
