Just wanted to let everyone know that I got Doyle's biopsy results back, and it turned out to be a special form of bladder infection that could or could not be recurring - only time will tell. The vet & I were worried that it would be cancer, but thank goodness, it wasn't. Doyle is back to his normal self, and has recovered quite well - although you can clearly see his fat tummy - I'll have to take pictures to show you guys.

Hey, did anyone else know that male cats have 6 nipples too?!

Djgirl, tomcats have them, too, but they're totally useless when it comes to arousal. No female cat can get anywhere romantically with a tom by fiddling with his nipples.

Does anybody remember my story of Thomas-he's not my cat? Well, I'm calling the vet today to find out if he has been fixed for sure. He is such a little sweety. A lady that came over to the house said he was a tuxedo cat. I guess because he looks like he has a tuxedo on? Anywho, I have three cats now. Pssst...don't tell Patches, my oldest female cat.

Feline Philosophy

Oh greats sirs and mams of furball gathering, below is the condensed version of the cat philosophy handbook

1. Life is hard then you nap.

2. When in doubt, cop an attitude.

3. Never sleep alone, when you can sleep on someone's face.

4. Variety is the spice of life.

5. On day one ignore humans, on day two annoy them

6. Make your mark in this world, or at least spray in every corner.

7. Curiosity has never killed anything, except a few hours.

8. As you go out into the world, remember... being placed on a pedestal is not a priveledge, it is a right.

9. The SOLE purpose of humans on earth is to provide, food, shelter, grooming, warmth, affection, snacks, rubs, scratches, and monetary support of our wills, whims, needs, fancies, lusts, and desires.

10. Any human found not complying to item #9 shall be scratched, sprayed, bugged, harrased, rubbed, annoyed, awoken, and otherwise bothered until compliance is attained.

Gidget, Those pics are so adorable.

I am going to inherit my aunt's cat and dog. Its the first time I have ever lived with a cat and I must say it is very interesting!

He is a beautiful cat (of course) and quite the hunter, and he is also huge!! He is very tall and long. I'm not exactly sure where he came from but I've heard that he was bouncing off the walls when he was a kitten. I renamed him "Newnee" because my aunt just called him "kitty no no".

I'm trying to figure him out but he is still a mystery to me. He is accustomed to hunting all night and sleeping all day. We have a wooded area behind the house and he has much to do.

Anyhow, I have been leaving the doggie/kitty door open all night so Newnee could come a go as he pleased. Well, the other night about 4:30a.m. I hear this horrible high pitched squeaking/screaming. I jumped out of bed to find that my kitty had brought me a live squirrel. I managed to lock the cat in my bedroom and awoke my Mom (who was here visiting) to catch the squirrel. Me and squirrel were screaming and running all over the house. Just like Christmas Vacation. ( I know I am a big sissy cause I have a severe phobia re. mice, rats, small rodents and this squirrel fell in that category.) The poor squirrel ended up hiding under a table in the living room plastered as flat as he could in the corner. I swear he didn't move a hair for an hour and a half. I sat there and watched him until the police could send an animal control officer over at 6:30a.m. We both thought the squirrel was dead so he went to pick him up and the squirrel starts screaming and running all over again. Of course, I start screaming and running too, with my dog on a leash. LOL The officer finally rescued the poor squirrel and said he was going to release him in the park. My Mom was totally humiliated by my cowardice! Oh well.

The moral of the story for me is that I can no longer afford to leave the doggie door open for Newnee anymore. The poor thing is absolutely starving when I let him in every morning and goes straight for his food.

I am sure I will be checking in here for advice. As soon as I can I'll post a picture of him. :)

Sis, that's so funny! I would have been just like you with the squirrel. One of my cats brought me a live lizard in my bed once. Not a pretty site.

Funny story about an encounter I had with a squirrel. Years ago, husband was out of town working and I was spring cleaning in the utility room. We had a door that led to the back yard in the utility room, so I opened it and was throwing out stuff through that door. I stopped a while for lunch and when I came back a squirrel had set up residence on a shelf. He thought he had hit the big time. When I tried to gently move him out with a broom, he would throw things at me! My neighbor and I set up an animal cage, he triggered it every night but wouldn't get caught. He lived with me 5 nights until hubby got home. (I had just closed the door by that point and he was livin it up.) Hubby put on long, thick pair of rubber gloves and literally threw the lil fella out the door.

Ddr, LMAO! I am so glad I'm not the only one afraid of a squirrel. I bet that squirrel thought he was in squirrel heaven.

{Hippy, have you checked out your Vegas thread?}:)

Tappy, if you use styling products in your hair, especially hair spray, the kitten might just like the smell of it. Cats have always rubbed their faces in my mom's hair because she uses hair spray. I don't use any mousse, hair spray or hair gel, so my kitties cuddle me without rubbing their little noses into my head!! LOL, I know it is keeping you awake, but don't you just love the little darling for being so affectionate?

It could be worse, Tappy; my kitten Tori nursed on my earlobe whenever she could get hold of it when she first came to my home. Guess she'd left her mama at too young an age. She doesn't do it any more, thank goodness; I was worried about having a three-inch-long earlobe!!
Tori
Sisalou, I think it's really lucky that you have an animal control department in your area that will send someone over. In the house I owned before I got married I was trying to chase a feral cat out of my house with a broom while screaming, "GET OUT!!" repeatedly. My nearest neighbor heard me screaming, but refused to come over because he thought it was a MAN I was screaming at and the neighbor didn't want to get involved. 'Hey, thanks a lot!!'
