I've just been standing in the kitchen, sipping from a mug of steaming hot caffeine and as I did so I was watching the birds in the garden. As well as many small birds on the various feeding stations, I noticed a couple of female blackbirds picking up bits of moss & loose grass in the...

My brother's Springer Spaniel, Maggie, has been a rough time of it. A couple of weeks ago she was diagnosed with infected jowls. She went on antibiotics, which gave her horrible diarrhea. Then this morning she had 3 grand mal seizure in a span of just a a couple of hours. Prior to this she had been...

We were back at the TED this evening. HRFL has had a tummy bug and has been *off* for a few days. It turns out that he has colitis, and possibly a little bit of pancreitis.:o( He's had something to ease the pain, and he seems to feel better, but some purrs for a quick recovery would be gratefully...

Cali has been making it a habit of having some Biscotti every morning before retiring for her daily slumber. This morning the slave was a bit slow breaking her off a piece, so she hopped over said slave and started chewing on a whole Biscotti. :) We're not sure if she likes the Almond flavour, the...

The night before last, I dreamed of h0p. It was so good to see him again. I was at my mom's house in the dream, and it was cold outside. I opened the front door and h0p was there on the front porch. I brought him into the den and he lay in the sun under the front window contentedly. Waking up...

I am not going to have much time this week so PURRS, HUGS, PRAYERS FOR EVERYONE THAT NEEDS THEM Matthew

Shylock's new wife Enid is very ill and is in hospital at the vets as we speak. She seems unable to eat or drink. and has to be re-hydrated, x-rayed and blood-tested. The vet thinks it's possible that she's maybe ingested some metal, like a nail or staple from the soil (earth) as geese...

This is a story about Bom Bom. Bom Bom is a pure-bred Devon Rex cat about a year and a half old. Despite his young age, he has already become the father of a few litters of beautiful kittens, two of them with my ex-wife's cat, Isis. He is such a nice, healthy, friendly and strong cat that deserves...

The vet just rang me with the results on the latest ringworm test (finally!). NO RINGWORM!!! Yay! Whoo! HaPpY dAnCiNg! -- Marina, Miranda and Caliban. In loving memory of Frank and Nikki. marina (dot) kurten (at) iki (dot) fi Stories and pics at http://koti.welho.com/mkurten/ Pics at...

Wasn't it you who has the new "office cat"? I'm thinking I might get one for my mother for Mother's Day, but I've lost your post. Could you post (or send) the url again? Joy

for Kate and Jack. I will be a nervous wreck, of course, so any purs that my little ones have a smooth and uneventful surgery and recovery would be very much appreciated. Ginger-lyn who swore she'd never take in another female cat again after Merlyn's Ordeal! Home Pages: http://www.moonsummer.com

The way Miranda tilts her head at last 90 degrees when she is watching something interesting, like a finger scratching under the covers. Her head tilts and tilts and tilts to the side, and then she gives a big yawn, as if she wasn't interested at all, no, no, not in the least. The way Caliban is...

Well, I found a decent sized hair ball on the kitchen floor this morning, so we'll see if that clears up the vomitting. TED visit was inconclusive. He (Mithu, not TED) had a lot of build-up in one ear, but no signs of actual infection. His neurological signs looked good, blood pressure and temp...

.... To keep your pets confined. I took the day off from work today; to get a break from there, and to get some things done at home. When I went out this morning, I saw a dog on my property. I've seen it before, but in the past when I tried to approach it, it got spooked and I was afraid if I...

She had TERRRIBLE diahrrea last night. I mean awful and it made her throw up. This has happened once before to this degree and putting her back on Hills wd cleared it up but she really had a tough night and none of us got much sleep. Sugar huddled next to me and she even threw up a hairball at...

This morning I woke up to find 'presents' on the floor again. Seems like the spoonful of canned pumpkin I gave him last night at bedtime didn't agree with his tummy. He loves the pumpkin and has them for a long time. He is going to TED this afternoon for his shots so I'll bring along a sample of...

I swear that Lily is a dog. She's been pottering out in the garden this evening and she's found something to roll in. She STINKS, but I am most certainly not going to attempt to give her a bath. Washing the crap off her feet was bad enough. ;o) Helen M (with a peg on her nose) -- Posted via...
