What's with the phonetic kitty talk?
MLB you are much kinder than I am. You know we have handled some serious
issues with cats and, a few dogs. Just because we take a lighter road to it all, doesn't make us.......well, whatever he was implying we were. I really hope his kitty doesn't end up with a serious weight problem and all the associated problems with it. 0 "MLB" wrote in message ...

I've come here in the past, and don't remember this foolishness. Rec.pets.cats.community has used meowchat for as long as I remember. I'm not all that fond of it either, but tend to lurk here anyway. There are other rec.pets.cats groups too. For example if it's health issues you want to look into, check out rec.pets.cats.health+behav. You know what? I think the health+behavior group is the one I've used in the past. I think I'll go there. Aside from its being more geared toward the advice I'm seeking, I can't stomach this so-called meowchat. Ridiculous. It's exactly the sort of foolishness that gives cat owners a bad name. Thanks, Christine. BTW, I used to date a Fin. She and her sisters were born there, but grew up here in the states. They all had Finnish names that were a bit of a challenge for my American tongue. Her parents' names were really tough, but I have to admit, I did a pretty good job with them. In fact, the first time I met her younger sister, the sister remarked on how well I pronounced my girlfriend's name. (Most people didn't do too well.) Thanks, again. -Dave Don't go away mad -- some of the group are nice and have a playful spirit. MLB |

It requires two things that a self-righteous asshole like you doesn't have: imagination and a sense of humor/playfullness. Maybe I'm plonked so you won't see this... What I always find interesting is how easily offended people in the internet become when they're criticized. My sense of humor is just fine...but grown-ups using this moewchat is the equivalent of talking to each other in babytalk. It's childish, so grow the hell up. If you don't like it here, don't visit or ask our advice. As I already said, I'll be heading over to the health-behavior group. |

Maybe you need one of the health groups or rpca. We rather enjoy meowchat here and I am sorry it is below your standards for fun. However, we are interested in your kitty and hope you will post when you figure out the source of the problem. It may just be a growing thing. Lots of luck. So while I do (really) appreciate your concern for my cat, I simply cannot abide the meowchat. Honestly, it's not playful; it's hopelessly childish. You must know that. Don't you? Would you accept people in a child-rearing newgroup using babytalk? I doubt it. BTW, I've spoken to the vet, and it's really looking like my kitten is just a little piglet. I'm just going increase his daily amount of food to make him satified, then try very gradually reducing it to the proper amount. |

Yes but a a@@hole by any other name is still an a@@hole. Just because I
don't like something doesn't give me the right to rip it apart. We kitties fout it wuz funnie dat himself kept readink thou him said him hated meowchat. Ah well, it is da seazon for forgiffing not beliddleink so as Whispering Willow Walker would say. Led him stew in hims own mess anna stay oudda mine fishtank.
