Trouble is the only cat I know who talks to ceiling fans! She chatters at it the same way she does when she sees a bird outside the window. She's been trying to get that thing since she was 2 months old, now she's over about 4 years old. You should see her head follow the fan movement when it's...

For those of you who might remember, Pirate was a beautiful, shy, FIV+ rescue kitty that I was extremely lucky to find a wonderful home for in 2003. I keep loosely in touch with his catslaves, Diane and George, who have Pirate and two other FIV+ rescues, and this is what I heard from George this...

She is determined to be in the correct window when the first rays of sunshine come streaming in. The correct window isn't in the...

John has to go to Orlando to do a training course at the end of the month and he wants me to go with him... which sounds like a great chance for a mini-vacation and to see his family (who live there), until my mother brought up a valid point - who will look after the cats?! It's only a three-day...

Well, it's that time again, Dennis gets back from Myanmar on Wednesday. I'm going to Bangkok a day early because I'm picking up my wedding ring which I've had re-set in white gold.

With all the things John is dealing with in terms of his elderly mother, he still found time to put some stuff in the mail for me :) Okay, so it's early. Better early than never, right? He found the CD for the soundtrack from 'Cold Mountain' and sent me that. Our favourite track is, "You Will...

Last Christmas we had some mixed nuts in the shells in a bowl by the tree. Cleo found them. She might have thought they were her present. She scooped out one, then another , and a third. An English walnut, an almond, and a pecan. She batted each one a few times and then decided to play with...

DH has had a bad back so hence the entrance of the Lawnmower Man. He whipped around the lawn and did the edges while '3 you know whos' investigated his van. He offered to take away any extra rubbish so van and trailer were soon full. I paid him, he departed, then a while later I checked on the...
