Koala update by Joy
The progress continues. Koala still hasn't let me pet him, but I now have hopes it could happen. Last night I woke up twice to find him snuggled against my legs or hips. The last time he was actually within reach. I put my hand down beside him. Instead of slapping it hard, as he has in the...

My super power by Mark Edwards
Just a little while ago, Senyah was in the kitchen. Little Feet followed her in there, and started meowing at the top of his lungs. I was in the hallway at the time, and asked Little Feet, "Can you meow more quietly? Maybe even silently?" I had to laugh when he looked mournfully at me and gave...

Goofy Just got the scare of a lifetime by Matt Ferrari[_4_]
We were just both out on the patio and this concrete semi came crashing around the corner of the cuddlesac with smoke and dust billowing up as it jammed on his brakes with a loud rumble. (btw I have no idea how he could have been driving that fast on this street?) Goofy dived so fast into the...

Persia & Milk by jmcquown[_2_]
Ah, I miss having a little sweet grey cat meow at me when I open the refrigerator! Persia loved milk. I'd give her a little drizzle of it every once in a while. But it did get to be a trial any time I went near the refrigerator. She always assumed I was getting milk. I'd have to say,...

Melisande - R I P by EvelynVogtGamble(Divamanque)
Alas, a few days at the vet's brought no improvement. Neither the medications (which they managed to administer) nor steroid injections had any effect on the bloody stools. It was a hard decision to make, since she remained in good spirits (although sleeping a lot more than usual) and eating...

Another Persia story: Persia & the Milk Jug Ring by jmcquown[_2_]
This has got to be one of the cheapest improvisational cat toys around. The milk jug ring. :) It didn't take but a split second of my tossing it on the floor before Persia was batting it all over the place. She played with it over the course of a couple of days and I'd toss it for her, too. ...

By the gasmen who are laying new gas mains in my road. First of all, one came to turn my gas supply off at 8 a.m. Boyfie had not long had his breakfast and was cleaning his face and paws prior to deciding whether to out for toilet duties shortly or a bit later when the gas man cometh which...

Last night by Joy
I never thought I’d be thrilled to be waked up from a sound sleep in the middle of the night, but that happened last night. About 1:30 a.m. I woke to the feeling of my feet being repeatedly pounced on and batted. I lay there for a couple of minutes, wishing Pickles would settle down and go...

Persia Tales: Patches of Sunshine by jmcquown[_2_]
My sweet little girl always did seek out patches of sunshine. :) The apartmment where I lived in Tennessee (when Persia demanded she move in with me) wasn't particularly a bright, sunlit place. I did open the blinds to the sliding patio doors when I left for work so she'd have some sunlight...

Scooter doesn't smell treats by dgk
It's pretty weird but has always been this way. Nipsy gently reminds me, over and over, that I have neglected to put out the treats. I drop a few Temptations (chicken) in front of him and Marlo, and a few in front of Scooter. Nipsy and Marlo devour them. Scooter sniffs around, as if he was looking...

Sweetie Pie is better by Mike Mayers
Thanks to the new medications, Sweetie Pie is eating now and acts more like normal. She still has a way to go but I am encouraged by her progress. Thanks for all the purrs.

I Brought Persia Home by jmcquown[_2_]
Today I was finally able to bring myself to make the trip back to the vet to pick up Persia's ashes. They kindly transferred her ashes to the small urn for me. I had thought I'd set the urn on the fireplace mantle, then I had a change of heart. There's a two-tier antique round table in the...

Sweetie Pie needs some purrs by Mike Mayers
She vomited in the litter box on Sunday and hasn't eaten since then. I took her to the vet this morning after chasing her around the house for over half an hour. She got an antibiotic shot and 100cc of saline solution for dehydration. I took her home with a bottle of medicine to give her twice...
