    Are you kitten me?

    A big welcom to you, and to Arthur, Loki, and Thor! I love that you are willing to open your heart to these feral guys, and you've already made SUCH big strides with them. So, rest easy about purchasing Arthur...you ARE rescuing two more!

    Adopting a cat when my lease says I can't have more than one

    Crossing my paws for you! Your therapist is more likely to realize that you can have FIVE cats, and only one of them is an effective ESA.

    Friend's cat scatters dry food EVERYWHERE

    Sometimes the easiest solutions are the hardest to see. For the "food in the water bowl," MOVE THE WATER BOWL a few feet from the food. Works like a charm. She'd have to pick the food up and literally drop it in the bowl.

    What's For Dinner? - 2024

    Lunch will be either a hot dog sandwich, OR scrambled eggs with peppers and onions. Dinner will be the hamburger steak that I just wasn't up to dealing with last night. LOL, I had toast, instead.

    From feral cat to domesticated cat - Progress

    Oh, EXCELLENT! He's such a brave boy, with a lot of help and support from you! Yes, I really think that the joys of human hands will come in time! I take care of, as best I am able, three feral tom cats (all neutered now), and the elder two will sometimes allow me to stroke them. Took me...

    Adopting a cat when my lease says I can't have more than one

    Let us know how this goes. I have found that a 504 accomodation for ESAs tend to move fairly quickly, once the doctor's letter is in place. I hope this is true for you, as well!

    Next time you are seasoning cast iron, make sure the oil has a HIGH smoke point, OR try seasoning at 250 for three hours. That's what Gran told me, lo, these many years ago, and I've never forgotten.

    Y'all...I filled my tea kettle last night, turned on the stove eye, and FELL ASLEEP! Totally ruined the tea kettle. Thank goodness for Walmart +. They just delivered a new one, along with the few grocery items that I had forgotten to put in my order this month. I really should NOT attempt to...

    What's For Dinner? - 2024

    Lunch will be a hot dog sandwich with cheese and onions. Yes, the craving got bad enough that I ordered them delivered. I did need just enough odds and ends to get free delivery. WHAT??? you say? A hot dog is a weiner on a bun. A hot dog sandwich is two weiners cut in half length-wise...

    Sorry but just gotta vent on animal rescue related charities

    I quit donating to World Wildlife Federation a few years ago after receiving a very slick brochure from them, and noting the very prestigious Park Avenue address listed. I then checked to see what percentage went to causes, and what went to overhead. It was obscene. I also learned that...

    I saw one in action last summer, in a yard full of lawn "art," and it seemed to do very well, cutting around them. I'm sure it was on the high end, price-wise. Again, I'd have to win a lottery to do this, and I'm NOT holding my breath! Again, lottery pipe dream, but...I'd love to have a BIG...

    Lunch will be waffles, and dinner will be a chicken patty with mashed potatoes and greens with pepper sauce. LOL, I'm choosing meals by my condiment cravings again. I just REALLY want pepper sauce!

    New feral cat - is it Pauli or Paula. / It's Paula and we have kittens.

    When it comes to Bertus, I am reminded of the advice I was given here when I was struggling (and lost the war) to transition my girl to wet food, "The very best cat food is the one your cat will actually EAT! The most nutritionally complete, balanced food in the world does no good sitting in...

    Kitty doesn't want the other's to have attention so much. Wants to be at the center.

    Believe me, I know how difficult that can be! We're almost hardwired to get that little bit of love in, aren't we?
