Texasdeb | Wednesday, June 18, 2003 - 09:33 pm     Makes me want a baby (kitty). DH put his foot down though & said 3 dogs & 3 cats are enough. I have a dbl level of this same type of cat thing for my "babbies". They seem to have outgrown crawling in & around it but still do their clawing thing on it - saves the furniture. |
Halfunit | Saturday, June 21, 2003 - 07:54 am     Good Saturday Morning Cat People!! Wheezer and Kitty, relaxing.
"Hey Wheezer! Stop tickling me!!"
"Fine then, I will lay on the floor and be my fat self!"
Shinobi thinks she is above the hijinx and just poses.

Weinermr | Saturday, June 21, 2003 - 08:00 am     I think I'm too "into" Star Wars. I always think of Shinobi as Obi-Wan Shinobi, the Jedi cat. LOL |
Sia | Saturday, June 21, 2003 - 08:23 am     LOL, Weinermr, that should be added to the "How do you pronounce?" thread!  |
Lobster | Saturday, June 21, 2003 - 09:23 pm     Half, great pics! I just love Mainecoons. And Shinobi looks so regal and all-knowing. I have to go with Weinermr, "Obi-Wan Shinobi" |
Pamy | Sunday, June 22, 2003 - 11:39 am     Sia, i love those new babies!! The pic of Liz is so funny, you can just tell she is pissed! lol Half..OMG!!! Those pics are great! You need to post the tickle pic in the write a caption for this pic thread. All your babies are so sweet. |
Pamy | Sunday, June 22, 2003 - 12:34 pm     Anyone know what happened to the click to feed the animals thread? I cant find it |
Pamy | Sunday, June 22, 2003 - 12:42 pm     nevermind, I found it! |
Conejo | Wednesday, July 02, 2003 - 12:49 pm     As some of you might know my 2 outside female cats had kittens about 2 months ago. They had a total of 10 kittens and I have given 3 of them away to good homes. Well, last night I came home from work and all of the kittens were missing. I thought that maybe they were just sleeping under the back porch since it was hot out yesterday. When I went outside a couple of hours later, there was still no sign of them (the kittens) just the 2 mother cats. Same thing this morning - no kittens - just the 2 mother cats. It's like they just vanished without a trace. Anyone here ever heard of anything like this happening? |
Jeep | Wednesday, July 02, 2003 - 01:29 pm     Conejo, yes I have. When I lived on a farm, the mother cat would move her kittens to different places sometimes several times. Hubby said this was to protect them from predators. So hopefully momma just moved them somewhere else, maybe futher away than you think. Look again. I'm hoping for the best! |
Jeep | Wednesday, July 02, 2003 - 01:38 pm     And talking about lost kitties, I lost my poor Bunkie yesterday to the Rainbow Bridge. I took her to the vet to have a syst/tunor removed from her side. It was huge. The surgery was quite involved and long and she had breathing problems from the anesthesia and died during the procedure. I was too shocked to be mad at first, but the more I think about it the angrier I get. Hubby told the vet that she was an older cat and didn't want him to do very invasive surgery, but he did anyway, taking too much time and even removing part of a rib. I don't think he used good judgement on an older cat. I am hating myself for taking her there. I should have just let it alone until it gave her real problems. She could have been with us a bit longer. She was not in pain. I have a notion to write a firey letter to the vet, but I know it would not do any good. And I lost my beloved Birdie just this past January! Enough! On the bright side, I still have Fred and Casper left. However, they hate each other. Casper and Bunkie were best buddies. She will be lost. Fred is a fat Tom and he doesn't care as long as he can bully somebody. And when they are gone, I have sworn to no more pets. It hurts too much and I don't trust the vets around here any more. They aren't like the ones we had years ago. They seemed to really care. Just my rant for the day. Sorry. |
Weinermr | Wednesday, July 02, 2003 - 01:47 pm     {{{{{{Jeep}}}}} I'm so sorry. |
Curiouscat | Wednesday, July 02, 2003 - 04:36 pm     Oh no, Jeep So sorry to hear about your loss. {{{{{{Jeep and family}}}}}} |
Whoami | Wednesday, July 02, 2003 - 04:55 pm     Awww {{{{Jeep}}}} I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. |
Moondance | Wednesday, July 02, 2003 - 06:50 pm     {{{Jeep}}} There are no words... you are in my thoughts Conejo... get the Mom, find those kittens and get their pockets picked ASAP!!! |
Ophiliasgrandma | Wednesday, July 02, 2003 - 07:00 pm     Jeep, I'm so glad you know about the Rainbow Bridge, but be sure to take a look at Revelations 5:13. I get great reassurance from it whenever I have to send a beloved pet on ahead. Hugs, OG

Pamy | Wednesday, July 02, 2003 - 07:34 pm     Jeep..I am so sorry to hear of your loss. Don't feel guilty about taking your baby to that vet. It is not your fault. Bunkie knew he was loved by you and that is all that matters. |
Theowl | Wednesday, July 02, 2003 - 07:51 pm     Jeep, I'm so sorry about your Bunkie!! I know what you mean about not wanting anymore after these are gone. My hubby won't let me get anymore "kids" after mine are gone, because I'm a basketcase when they are just sick. You might change your minds, though. Give your other "kids" a hug for me, especially Casper.  |
Sia | Wednesday, July 02, 2003 - 09:15 pm     Conejo, I so hope you find your little kittens. Mamas do move their babies when they think their little ones might be in danger. Jeep, I'm so sad to hear of Bunkie's loss. You can't second-guess yourself, or you'll have no peace. Hugs and prayers for you, Jeep. Take care. |
Spygirl | Thursday, July 03, 2003 - 06:24 am     I heard a terrible story this morning on the news about the horrible killings of cats in the Denver and Salt Lake City areas. Please keep the guys inside for a while till they figure out who the sicko is... |
Conejo | Thursday, July 03, 2003 - 07:40 am     Jeep, I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. I know all too well how painful it is to lose one of your babies. Well, when I got home last night, one of the little black kitties had returned home. A couple of hours later another one showed up and by the end of the night a total of four had returned home. They just seem too big for the mother cats to be moving them - yet too small to wander off on their own. |
Twinkie | Thursday, July 03, 2003 - 07:49 am     Jeep, I'm so sorry for your loss. I also know too well how painful it is. Just know that its alright to grieve. Everyone, please keep your babies inside. There are some very sick folks out there. |
Babyruth | Thursday, July 03, 2003 - 08:05 am     (((Jeep))) I'm so sorry about Bunkie. |
Jeep | Thursday, July 03, 2003 - 10:29 am     Thanks to everyone for the nice thoughts! I've calmed my anger down a little bit and focused on making sure Casper is OK. It's very obvious that she's looking for Bunkie. They used to eat from the same bowl, head to head. When she sees no one there or Fred there, she just walks away. So I had to feed her treats last night and she did eat a bit this morning. Fred is oblivious to it all. OG, I will read that this weekend. Thanks! Conejo, I'm glad your kitties are starting to return. I hope everyone is OK. Love to everyone! |
