Lots of you folks publish kitty pics on Yahoo photo albums, and I always have a problem viewing them. I have to click away an error message from IE(6) every time. It says: "Your current settings prohibit running ActiveX controls on this page. As a result, the page may not display correctly."...

I rescheduled the one from last week for my SSDI claim because honestly I woke up and couldn't deal with making the 35 mile drive through major traffic. Today I told myself, yes, you *will* do this. I called for directions and the man gave me directions down a very busy road but at least with...

I've been reading Tad Williams' Otherland series recently. I read the first two books several years ago, but I lost interest. This time, I made sure I had all four on tap so that I could blast through them. You really have to pay attention to these books, which feature an enormous cast of people...

Basho has been barfing a lot lately, so last night I decided to put him on the scale (he seems skinny). 7 pounds. That seemed too little for me, but Tom thought it was normal. So I called the vet's office and left a message. They called me back this morning and said his last visit was Dec 2003 (I...

The bitties are growing like... well only kittens can. They're getting more independant all the time. When they first moved in they stuck together all the time, when I found one I'd find a pile of kittens since they were always together. Also, when momma Spot called them, they would all come. Now...

Decided to splurge a little bit on cat toys (Amazing how you can be broke, but are willing to spend money on toys for the kitties) First is a mousie that hangs from the door frame from an elastic cord. Mischief took to it immediately and spent lots of time batting it around. Imp sniffed at it...

It's official! I am very firmly wrapped around a little itty bitty paw. ;o) An adoptive mommy came to look at the kittens to book them tonight. They did the whole "cute widdle kitten" thing, and I persuaded the adoptive mommy, Elaine, that "Of course, 2 are better than one..." ;o)She decided on...

I have been missing my Sassy so much lately that my husband took me to the shelter last night to look for another kitty. My life feels empty without a furbaby. That have nearly 30 kittys, both bitties and adults,looking for homes. I was nervous about going to look at them, but when I got there...

His job's gone again. And once again it was less than a week after his so-called employers assured him that everything was well. They're all a bunch of !@#%$^&*(&^Y%$#$%^*(*&^%^*()_O*&^%$%^*(*&^%# scumsucking bottomdwelling SOBs. I just went to the doctor yesterday and I'm supposed to see a...

I will be working at a doggie daycare from noon til six when i work weekdays and from nine til six on occasional saturdays. I talked to another mother that lives nearby whose son is in sarah's class and she will pick her up with her children and watch her til chad gets home between five and...

I want to thank all of you here who posted messages, sent prayers, purrs and good thoughts, lit candles, and/or helped out with Sabra's medical bills. All of it means a great deal to me, and I love you all for your caring and compassion. Sabra's inhaler is still on the table, where I haven't been...

First off, no cause for concern. =o) This was routine checkup stuff. I took Pan in to have his blood sample taken as his medication needs to be monitored, and took Francesca in for a check up and her yearly FELv (or whatever the heck it is) innoculation. Nina stayed home and held down the fort....

Victor, were you able to get him in today, or will he just keep his appointment tomorrow morning? -- Hugs, CatNipped http://www.PossiblePlaces.com/CatNipped/

Just wondering because it hasn't had any replies... Here's my favourite photo of the bunch - Scouty lying on the desk and lazily reaching out for the camera strap. http://client.webshots.com/photo/313527214/348407262luKfzT -- ~Karen aka Kajikit Crafts, cats, and chocolate - the three essentials...

Hi everyone, Flippy forwarded me an email from a Janet Hayward on Sunday, who was asking Flippy for permission to use one of my stories in a book of hers. Flippy of course said it wasn't up to her, and Janet needed the author's permission, ie, *mine*. So I wrote a nice e-mail to the address...

For the last several years, after the tech crash and losing a really satisfying job in the corporate research center of Nortel Networks, I've been hanging in from contract to contract, some literally micromanaged at the level of hours. I've also run into the proverbial shaft when I took a...

We have two great cats, both originally strays, so we have no idea how old they are. We asked our vet when we had them *fixed* etc. and she says it is rather difficult to tell... does anybody have any bright ideas that would help us get at least a rough idea? We have had Sox a few months longer...

I like to bring home abandoned and thrown away things from work. I'm a terrible packrat. Most of the things I bring home are things like cardboard cartons I use for storage, bits or complete pieces of equipment I like to tinker with, (I'm very god at repairing small machines, etc. ) and other...

Just got back from TED with Spot and her kits. This visit wasn't really for a checkup, but for Dr Haney to look them over and get his pick of the litter. He pretty much pegged their personalities after just watching them for a couple minutes. They're old enough. about 10 weeks, now for them to be...
