gay kitties
I have had cats all my life and I have never experienced this before. I rescued a himalayan neutered already and about 8 years old and he constantly is jumping on the back of my other male neutered cat and biting his neck. I know dogs do this for dominance, but I have never seen cats do this. The himalayan is low man on the totem pole, so I don't think it is about dominance. The other one just sits there and takes it for a few seconds and then throws him off, but not really bothered by it, very bizarre, glad to hear someone else's cats do this, have any thoughts on why?
One of my kitties
I'm trying to learn how to post pictures. Hopefully it works

Don't forget to spay and neuter! There are agencies that can help with cost.
Help feed the kitties too! sm

New litter of kitties..in my CAR
So we were getting ready to go out last night and as my son is getting in the car, he sees one of the outdoor cats under the front seat...in the process of giving birth. (I left my window down after telling everyone else to keep theirs up so the cats would stay out!) I now have 4 teeny tiny kittens under my car seat. My question is would be all right to move them? Thankfully I don't have anywhere to go this morning. I've had a lot of cats over the years, but never ran into this before.
I got you beat, when little my kitties had
their own bedroom with everything their little hearts desired. Their tower, their litter box, their toys, you name it and it was theirs.
Probably would not have kids, rather kitties
Oh babies are pretty nice but then they grow up. Motherhood is not all its cut out to be. I have loads of good times with my animals.
I had the SAME problem with my kitties...on a few different occasions!
Turns out, it was ALLERGIES. The vet simply gave ours allergy shots, but you need to take him in to r/o anything further. My money's on allergies, however. This happened to two of our kitties, and at different parts of this year.
Good luck!
Keeping kitties off the counter...
I have always had good luck with this. Cover your counters entirely with aluminum foil. Tape it down. Leave it a day or two. The kitties absolutely hate the feeling of the foil under their paws and won't go back. I have even used this on the back of a sofa and it worked there too. The picture of you sitting there by the tree, in wait with the squirt gun is priceless. All this kitty talk, I'm getting ready to go to the shelter and get me another little furball of love. Wise
tips on rehoming kitties
Pleeeease go to the petfinder website--I'm not sure if this site lets you post url's, but you can find if if you search. You can look through listed local rescue groups there. In the meantime, DO NOT GIVE AWAY "FREE TO GOOD HOME" because that frequently ends up very, very badly. Either charge a fee, or do a home visit to check out the people you give them away to. Preferably ask all sorts of good questions to find out where the cat will be housed, are there other animals there (if so, spayed/neutered? up to date on vaccines? what would they do if they had to move or something and could not keep the cat?), etc.
At the very least, if you're giving the animals to your local humane society, look into that society's euthanasia policies. If you're in the south, those cats could be gassed to death, which is not a fun way to go. If at all possible and you're determined to drop them off somewhere, please drive them to a no-kill facility. Those are my tips (and I've done a lot of animal rescues and transports--I just can't do them right now). Thanks for thinking of them--lots of people don't bother....
I use Advantage 9 for my smallish kitties. I didn't think - sm
I needed flea-treatments since they are both 100% indoor-only cats living in an apartment, but every few months to a year,they'd suddenly become infested. It happened with my past cat, too. I finally figured out what was happening.
It was ALWAYS after I'd been away for a while, and the pet-sitter came to take care of them, which included grooming, etc. She's not uncleanly or anything, but she does take care of a LOT of animals all over town, because that's her livelihood. So obviously one or more of her clients had a flea problem, and it only takes one to jump from that animal, to the pet-sitter, to one of my cats to start the problem all over again.
So NOW, I apply Advantage before planning to leave them with anyone, and that seems to do the trick.
I have 2 kitties too who love sitting under the tree. However,
my question is: Where did you find the Wii????? LOL
And so will my doggie Tasha. She loved kitties. sm
Her fave was chasing them and then letting them chase her. I lost her when she was 14,too. She's been gone for 3 years but I still miss her.
If you can upload your pics, share with us your pooches and kitties!!! nm

Poor you!
Right now I'm trying to transcribe for ESLs who dictate that way, and add whole sentences in prelude to something that actually means something. Stop with all the filler guys!
Oh, poor guy. sm
Sorry I referred to him as female before. (I've had too much coffee today - I seem to have energy, but no focus.) It is stressful to try to watch them all the time and to be worrying about them all the time. I sure hope he'll be okay.
I actually meant to give you this website in my other post (like I said, no focus!) It seems to cover pretty much everything about canine epilepsy, and I really like the advice way down near the bottom "Living With An Epileptic Pet." http://www.canine-epilepsy.net/basics/basics_main.html
I think there are e-mail lists for people with epileptic pets too, which are probably very supportive and helpful.
I wish you both well. Please let us know how he's doing.
poor pup!

Poor cat
I'd rather have Scooter Libby living in my neighborhood than these 2 girls or you, all 3 who apparently cannot see where the problem lies.
Oh no! Poor you! :-(
When I lost a filling NOTHING took the pain away and I loaded up on as much Tylenol as was safe. The best thing I found was liquid Anbesol, the strongest strength they make, soaked on a piece of cotton gauze...the kind with like a webbing around it, put right over the tooth. I also remember staying plastered pretty much the whole time with whiskey high balls.
I hope you feel better soon! Nothing worse than dental pain, in my opinion.
Poor Puppy--sm
Wow. I feel so bad for the puppy (I call all doggies puppies no matter what size or age they are). I did not realize that pets could get or have SLE. I wish you the best for finding something to control symptoms. give puppy a pet for me too.
Poor baby!
I hope you can figure out what's going on with her.
Thank you for caring for that poor dog. sm
She must have been neglected for a long time.
With her coughing up mucus, she probably has pneumonia and needs antibiotics. She also needs dental work.
You might want to feed her some ground beef and rice. You should boil the beef, not fry it (no seasonings)and add it to cooked rice that has no seasonings. This is what my vet prescribed when one of my dogs was sick. It should be easy for her to eat this. But please get her to a vet ASAP.
She probably has some kind of allergy that is causing her to chew herself. Or she might be doing that because her teeth hurt her.
Poor fella...
I would have said, "Honey, I have a 15 minute break at 8, let me "talk" with you then." Throw the poor guy a bone! lol
Poor thing...
Try the packaged oatmeal bath specifically for itchy rashes. I did this with my little one, who is now 18, and it really seemed to help with the itching. You should be able to find it at the pharmacy or ask your pharmacist. Maybe even a little Benadryl will help her rest and keep her from itching as well.
Wishing her a speedy recovery and prayers!
Poor animals!
A ''crate'' is just a nice term for a cage. How sad to cage a dog or cat.
Poor thing is very odd looking...
an excellent singer though!
Poor kid.... I felt bad for him
I agree that he surely didn't measure up vocally to the others. He seems like a nice kid, though, and even most adults couldn't take being talked about the way he has been. I really felt for him up there. I hope he has a lot of fun when they're on tour. I think he's going to be getting the biggest reaction from the crowds.
Oh, poor hubby. Now he has to do all the
driving of kids, cooking, laundry, vacuuming, etc. until your ankle heals. 'Cause you know, you're supposed to elevate your foot so it can heal.
No need to get mad - just apologize to him when you have to ask him to do all that stuff, LOL.
He'll never do that again.
:oD
House poor
I would not buy this home, and I'm not sure the bank would allow you to buy it anyway at your current incomes. Banks used to use the 28/36 formula (no more than 28% of income for house payment and 36% total for car loans, credit cards, etc.). Nowadays, they've relaxed those guidelines which could explain the skyrocketing foreclosure rate right now. As someone else posted below, babies and children in general cost lots of money, even for their most basic needs. I would try to find a smaller, older home instead.
You poor dear. I know exactly what you are saying.
I have 4 children with my husband. I don't even like leaving them at home with him. It's not that he is abusive but I just feel like I should be there in case he starts his antics with them. They are pretty tough though. Even at their early ages they have him figured out and sometimes I think they cope with him better than I do. They have this wonderful ability to mentally block him out that I wish I had sometimes. They just act like he isn't even in the room. I guess God takes care of them b/c they are the innocent victims.
Ha! I might suggest that to the poor
folks who still work there. This woman would probably put them on KP duty, though.
;op
Poor Thorne
He is just looking for love and now he is getting played by Donna (who in my opinion looks like a tramp and is acting like one). I do agree that the look on Stephanie's face will be priceless...and then she will lunge at Donna and try to kill her....good times, good times!
Oh your poor daughter!
I know exactly the humiliation she is feeling and can totally relate. What that 'teacher' said and did is just wrong. I can only hope she didn't mentally scar your daughter for the rest of her life.
I got my first period when I was in junior high...was wearing a white skirt to boot. I heard giggling and normal noise of all us students transferring to and from class but had no idea people were laughing at ME. Finally, halfway through the day, an older girl who I had no idea who she was, pulled me into the bathroom and said that I may want to go to the nurse's office because there was blood all over the back of my skirt. I actually took off my skirt, washed it in the TOILET WATER, and hid there the rest of the day until the final bus left and walked home, probably at least 5 miles, completely destroyed.
For such a 'normal' body function that no one should be surprised about, why on earth did no one bother to tell me about it, rather humiliate me like that? ...and yes, it messed me up for life.
That adult needs to have her naked behind paddled in public in front of all her peers to even come close to feeling the humiliation your daughter just felt. Go right to the top and defend your poor daughter.
Aw - Poor Lil Ole You - Jealous, huh? (nm)

Poor things! sm
You must be heartbroken. How sad! You did the best you could.
Oh goodness! Your poor mom!
Sort of have a similar story but my MIL was the one calling about my DH. She took DH to the ER for a severe attack of Crohn's; I stayed home with the kids.
I am dead asleep and MIL calls at 11:30 p.m. and says "we almost lost him." I asked what she was talking about and couldn't figure out what was going on. She tells me she thought he wasn't breathing, starts lecturing me about how I should have called her sooner to take him, that none of the triage staff would help my DH and she called 911 from the ER waiting room. I was far too disoriented to drive there as I had taken a sleeping pill. I felt pretty helpless.
She phoned me again at 6:30 a.m. She apologized for calling like she did.
He did indeed have a severe Crohn's flare up but his BP was fine as well as all his vitals. She insisted that the triage nurse falsified his vitals. Next time I'll call an ambulance for him instead of her.
I hope your dad is okay today. Saying a prayer for you and your family (if that is okay).
Aw, you poor thing!
My dad was once with my mom and their grandchild, and I guess mom was pushing my niece on a swing and dad sat down on a bench. Well it was a warm day, and naturally he fell asleep. Next thing he knows, park security is asking him to move along, like he's a vagrant. Or maybe his snoring was scaring the kids - I donno. :op
Awwww poor little guy!
His eyes seem to be saying, "Why are you humiliating me like this?"
You poor thing!...
You are just stressed out!! I can't say that I have been in the child support and visitation situation. But I do hope things get better for you. Not to say I don't have stress just not the same you have. I have stress with having work to do on the computer and having to do everything around the house. My hubbie drives a truck and isn't here and has a kennel of beagles and plus I have household chores. My pit bull impregnated my beagle who is at the vet as we speak getting an abortion and being spayed so we don't have to worry about this. I have a son who is 10 who if you don't sit down and make him do his homework he doesn't do it. It just seems there is so much to be done and I am the only one to do it. Laundry, cleaning house, cooking, helping with homework, feeding dogs. Don't forget the MT work pilig up you have to have done by in the morning. It gets stressful. Hang in there!
Oh my! Poor you and your daughter!
The first hint that the other mom was improper was saying you were not "a good Christian." That in itself is verbal abuse and shows where her daughter gets it. Proves to you that your daughter is truly being bullied. Great you talked to the teacher. Tough you can't be there with your daughter to make sure she is safe. When someone bullies my 7 and 8 year old kids, I tell them to first say "stop." Then if the person continues to turn and walk away. This is what I learned in abuse counseling. This goes for any situation young, old and in between. On the phone same thing. Say stop and then if they don't say, "I am hanging up now." to give them the heads up. It sounds like you and your daughter have good hearts and unfortunately bullies can smell that out. Happened to me my whole life, and every day I have to remind myself the rules of true friendship versus a wolf in sheep's clothing. I will send happy thoughts your way. And please, don't ever accept this "you are not a Christian," stuff. I am a Pastor's wife who rarely goes to church where he preaches anymore because of hearing that type of thing and I am trying to tell the ladies to "stop." Well they do not, so a lot of members leave. That's another story about bullies. Different forms and different disguises, same MO.
Good luck to you!
Oh those poor little critters!!! LOL nm

That's a poor article.
That article is written by a self-proclaimed expert writing on a conspiracy-theory website. It's mostly made-up nonsense.
If you want information, find something better.
My poor old doggy had seizures
and died from one. He went to the vet that day and she put him on medication. I called her and told her he was having more seizures and she said to double his medication. That night, he had a seizure and did not come out of it and died staring at me. I felt so helpless that I could not do anything to help him. I loved him so much.
Now I have another doed that is only 2-1/2 and he is having seizures about 1 every 3 months. He gets very scared and I have to comfort him. He wines and gets under my feet, can't stand up, drools, shivers and goes stiff.
And, btw, I am one of the working poor, a member of

Yep and no one else is after poor Anna Nicole's
tee heee
Poor Miss Lily!!
Your poor pup has really been through the ringer with health issues. I hope she gets better soon for ALL your sakes! Keep us posted, sending prayers . . . .
Oh geezzz....that poor woman was...
several bricks shy of a load:
Schoedinger further states in her lawsuit, "The (FBI) agent in question advised her that the situation appeared to be highly organized and most likely higher level, such as a racist organization." Furthermore she states, "Throughout this conversation, she learned that there was no time that the Defendant (Bush) ever stopped watching Plaintiff, nor did he stop having sex with Plaintiff. The sole concern of the Defendant and his representatives was whether Plaintiff could actually recall whether Plaintiff could actually recall, the individual sex crimes committed against Plaintiff and Plaintiff's husband, utilizing drugs.
Section VII of the lawsuit states; "Whether or not Plaintiff's husband was raped remains in question, as Plaintiff was drugged after she was raped and her husband was drugged before her rape. Plaintiff can only state that these men purported to be FBI agents raping her for the purpose of covering for how many times they had drugged her and allowed the Defendant to rape her in the same manner."
So, if you want to believe that George W. Bush and a gang of FBI agents drugged this woman and her husband and raped them both...more power to you.
Clinton was accused of rape too...by Juanita Broaddrick. Far more credible, especially to those of us who know Juanita.
I love that phrase "Bush lied." Prove that he lied. As to murdering Vince Foster and troops being killed in a war...I see a big difference. How about the 3000 that died on 9-11? I suppose they don't matter either. Take yer pick. And don't even go there that Hussein had nothing to do with 9-11. He enabled AL Qaeda from the get-go and would have continued to do so, and his agents were in touch with Mohammed Atta before he flew a jet into one of the towers. Bush didn't say that...Czech Intelligence did. Yep, very convenient to just spit "Bush lied" without a thing to base that on. But..hey...he cannot send troops to war on his own. Your elected COngress authorized it. The Senate Intelligence COmmittee got the same intel Bush did and they voted for sending troops anyway. You can deny it all you like. It is in the Congressional Record.
Cut the poor woman some slack.
Who she had sex with or didn't is no one elses concern. Most humans make mistakes, I know I have. I just hope she has found the peace that she lacked in life and that DL grows up feeling loved by Howard and Larry. I also hope Anna's mother never gets a finger on that child.
Poor kid; two nuts for parents :(

Homeless has nothing to do with poor credit.

Poor little rich girl!
With all Paris' money - can't she get a chauffeur to take her partying?? HELLO?? She deserves much more than she's getting!
