There was this woman by
Christina Websell
Collecting for the Cat's Protection League outside the Pet Shop in the next
village to me. I always go in there if I am there as that's where I got my
last hens from, and they are not great performers egg wise and I want to
look at the hens they are selling for 18.99 each.
I don't carry much...

Pet shaming, Little Boy style by
Mark Edwards
"Pet shaming" (http://cat-shaming.tumblr.com/), attaching a note to a
pet to tell the world about their bad habits, like "I am a
muffin-stealing whore" (http://imgur.com/gallery/eZ7qO) in one picture,
appears to be a new meme. Here's Little Boy's take on...

Mooom! by
Mark Edwards
This morning, as I often do, I torment Apache by picking her up and
chanting, "Kisses and cuddles! Kisses and cuddles!" She often gives
token resistance, and a 'meeeew' or two, before I let her back down.
This morning, she looked directly at Senyah and shouted what sounded
like, "Mom! Mooom!"...

A lasting tribute to a companion and friend by
Corey
Recently I lost my friend and companion Baxter. He was a domestic
short hair cat I found shivering in the rain 12 years ago. He was just
a kitten and he was so skinny his ribs were showing. My wife nursed
him back to health and he became one of the family. He was invaluable
to me after I lost my...

Wish me luck (OT) by
Lesley
I may have mentioned the situation at work- the harrassment over moving me into an office where I don't want to go (long story) and the fact that after next year they will be cutting my wages by £200 a month because they've regraded us to save money although it now looks like some of us will keep...

Shop Cats! by
Mark Edwards
Came across a little run-down gun shop while I was in Dallas this
morning. It had the expected little signs like, "If you're caught around
here at night, you'll be found here tomorrow morning" and so on. The
entire interior could easily be described as 'shop worn'.
As I stood just inside the...

Bast**d cat trick by
ann791
Time for bed and I turn off the livingroom light and start closing
things up for the night. Check the front porch, no cats. Okay close the
door. No cats on back porch. I put the alarm on. I always like to do a
nose count to know where the 3 cats are. Cinnamon, Samwise but no Lucy
Lu. Back into...

Morning routines by
---MIKE---
Amber and Tiger are creatures of habit. They have a series of morning
routines that rarely changes. When I get up I tell Amber to wait on the
bed for her hug (she usually sleeps on my bed). I go upstairs (that's
where the living room/kitchen is) and Tiger meets me at the top of the
stairs. ...

The TED visit by
Christina Websell
I was so anxious that Boyfie should not get a clue about it that I waited
outside for Claire to arrive with Tigger so she didn't ring the doorbell.
Unfortunately she was late as Tigger had done the star shaped thing and she
couldn't get him into his carrier for ages.
I told her not to speak as...

Bedtime routine by
---MIKE---
About 9 PM I turn off the TV, go use the love glove on Amber and tell
her how good and beautiful she is. Then I head down stairs and tell her
it's time for Friskies (indoor delights), a snack that she likes. She
goes down stairs and I give her a sample. Tiger is there and he wants
some too. ...

Tomorrow by
Christina Websell
Boyfie & Tigger are going to TED for their injections. Claire will have to
be 20 minutes before to get Boyfie into his box to go there. If he sees his
box he knows it's TED and he is a starfish, even if we can catch him. He
stretches out more than four legs.
Anyway, he has to go there.

The Wall, This is the end of it by
Christina Websell
I have taken legal advice from two solicitors who specialise in boundary
disputes (which is what this is.)
They have both said that while they are prepared to act for me, they advise
against it because a boundary dispute can gallop away into so many legal
fees through pride that you can lose...

OK, my neighbours blew it! by
Christina Websell
Yesterday I heard a lot of excited chattering at full volume near to my back
door over the fence. My neighbours are incapable of speaking in normal
tones for some reason.
I eventually went out to find they were "pruning" two of my trees by
gettting on a ladder and leaning over my fence. Yes,...

Grammar peeves by

Starting a new thread so Tweed won't think we're all gossiping about her. :)

The mistakes that bother me the most are the use of SEEN where SAW would
be correct and the incorrect use of THERE, THEIR, and THEY'RE.
Grammar peeves are like... well, you know. :) Everybody has one....

The Box Maru Can't Enter by

Oh no! (doing my best Pete Best voice).

It's segmented. Maru the box cat cannot access it.

I am popular today by
Mark Edwards
Only Little Boy has been a lap cat lately. Little Feet and Apache have
mostly been avoiding the bedroom.
Well, Apache slowly skootched her way to the bedroom door, meatloafed
for awhile, then decided the bedroom was okay. In fact, she has been
demanding skritches from me all day.
Little Feet,...

Follow-up: Wish Me Luck! by
jmcquown[_2_]
I am unclear as to how best to present my financial information to the
President of the DIC (Dataw Island Club) Board, Dave Muehl. Like many
people these days, I do my banking online. I pay my bills online. I
don't receive paper statements.
Anyway, Dave said I should email him the...

I met with the President of the Board of Directors and the Membership
Director yesterday to address this ridiculous requirement of having to
be a member of "the club". (My friend and neighbor came along to
provide moral support.) This meeting is my last hope of not having to

Boyfriend's bedroom by
Christina Websell
It's his refuge so I rarely disturb him if he is sleeping there but suddenly
he doesn't want to go there and is down in the house with me all the time.
As this is very unusual I decide to examine his bedroom. He's horked a
hairball up on the rug. When I remove it and clean up, he's back in there...
