I got such a good deal on Naiya's Nail Caps today that I just had to come and post! They had the "Holiday" pack, which are red/green, on clearance for $5. These things usually sell for $20! These are obviously left over from last year's Christmas stuff, but what was really funny to me is that they already have this year's Christmas stuff out, so they would have fit right in! But, I won't complain about a deal. And I really don't have a problem with her having holiday colors any time of year. That is how cheap I am! She is getting big, Bandit. Sometimes I look at her and can't believe how much she's grown. She's still the same behavior-wise. She was sick one day this week. She just laid around pathetically all day. I was so worried and missing her kitten behavior. Then the next morning she was back to normal and I couldn't believe I'd actually missed the craziness! She's such a little goofball.

Julie, you might try a site like Froogle or Bizrate that will give you comparison prices from different sites. Also, I found the Litterbox Central forums to be very helpful for choosing a litter box/litter. There are postings there about just about everything litter-related. On occasion, people post used automated boxes for sale, too. (and if you are okay with used, you might want to try Ebay or Craig's list, too).

btw, Bandit, I've got Leia, Cdbga has Naiya. LOL I need to take some new pics of leia. We've acutally pulled out the water bottle to use on her when she gets on our new kitchen table. She never got on the old one, probably cuz it was covered in stuff, but she has started getting on the new one. The water bottle seems to do the trick. Leia gets her stitches out friday. She's doing well. How long have your vets kept stitches in?

Hi Everyone--just came in to read posts and catch up, as I haven't been here in a while (over at the never-ending BB chat). Just wanted to say to Tater--I don't know where you live, but I live in an extremely dry climate. I moved last year to a home with refrigerated air, (rather than the good old swamp coolers everyone has here). Everything--people, furniture, pets--has become extremely dry. My cats actually have dry-skin dandruff. I'm working on setting up a humidifying solution, at least in the bedroom. This is probably not relevant, few people live in as dry a climate as I do. Just throwing this out there as another possibility for the itching. If this is the case, a bath is not a good solution. Loved everyone's posts & pictures! I came in with the idea of catching up, hope to post more later . . .

Plasmacytic Lymphocytic Stomatitis Ever hear of it? My oldest, Wheezer, was diagnosed with it yesterday. She hasn't been eating, even after a full dental cleaning procedure last week. She received an 'allergy' shot yesterday, which is supposed to help her get back to eating a bit until we figure out how to tackle this. Ultimately, it looks like she will have to have all of her teeth extracted.

Aw, poor baby. I'm so sorry HU, but she should get along fine without teeth. At least I'll bet she won't look as silly as my DH without his dentures in his mouth.

lol, OG. Doncha just hate it when our babies get sick. I'm torn between waiting to see of meds help, or just making the appointment for extraction, even though all of her teeth are in great shape. <sigh> My brain knows she'll be ok without teeth. I am just having a hard time convincing my heart! I believe the salt in canned food is driving her crazy when it hits the sore spots. She will pick at tuna, which is less salty. I think I'll cook up some chicken for her tonight. I'll have to swing by the pet store too and see if there is something soft for her to eat without a lot of unnecessary ingredients.

HU, why don't you contact Dogdoc for her take. You know she won't give you any shuck and jive, just the straight poop.

Sorry also to hear about Wheezer, HalfUnit. I haven't heard of that condition. Ironically, I just came in to post about my own cat, Figaro. The vet found a growth in his mouth, and removed it along with two teeth. Food is a huge issue, because he loves his dry food and can't have it. He seems to be hungry, but wont eat more that a few bites of canned Fancy Feast, so it may also be the salt in the wound. I'm having much more success with BABY FOOD. I get the tiny jars of the meats--Beef & Turkey. Ir requires no chewing & has no salt. Hope this helps Wheezer! I've also had more success with fresh crabmeat, though it has natural sea salt in it. I think it's because it's his favorite treat. But that could get very expensive!

This is my first picture post! (other than the test site) I finally learned how to use my digital camera. Figaro is my older cat. He's my best friend & companion. This is after the surgery, when he had to wear this bonnett to keep him from tearing off the pain patch. He looks like a morning glory!

Hypoallergenic cats - only $4,000 bucks and a two year wait. LOL!! Cat Lovers Lining Up for No-Sneeze Kitties I'm very glad not to be allergic. I'm not sure what I'd do without my kitties.

Retired, that's such a sweet picture. That's the dog I want, pure nurturing & love! Gina, my daughter is allergic, but only when she cuddles them too much. But sometimes, it's worth it to her, lol. Me too, glad I'm not allergic!

Spanky is a computer expert! I adjusted the picture so it is a little clearer.
