Tobermory posted these lyrics: To the tune of "For Free" by Joni Mitchell I slept last night in an alleyway Where my hoomins abandoned me I don’t understand why they did what they did I thought I was family I’m lonely and scared and I’m hungry Waiting for you to save me But the people hurry by...

I think you wrote some great lyrics. Touching. Well penned. And I had to come back and listen to Joni and read them again.

Well thank you, for sharing Joni and your lyrics (and for giving them a happy ending). It made my whole evening nicer, listening to Joni Mitchell for an hour, instead of struggling with the house work, lol. (It doesn't take much to get me to stop and goof off :D

*snif* I once found three 8-week old kittens in a rest stop. They had just been dumped and ran to me and I scooped them up and put them in my barely running car. I was homeless myself. I was living in it. I stopped to talk to the vet in town. I needed an idea how to get them homes right away...

I remember that. 1978!

When I was young, my parents' habit was to get a cat..always female, and let her have one litter ("let her fulfill the life cycle", my father would say) and then we'd spay her. This method led to us having a mother, daughter and grand-daughter...plus a fourth cat, a male stray who slept in the...

You know, it isn't even just the cats that we're seeing...it's the amazing job of photography people did. Use of lighting, context, props, high definition...all made more present and crisp by black & white 'film'. Very impressive. You guys did a really cool thing here.

I got sent to the principal's office - made to walk there alone, not knowing where or what it even was (I was 6, and frightened) - and all because I couldn't help letting out a laugh when the teacher said "poo" unexpectedly (Is that REALLY a get-sent-to-the-principal's-office offense? In my...

Captain Meow is my best friend and my only friend. He and I have been shut in together in a city apartment for ten years. I bring him outside sometimes because I know he needs it, but it's supervised play. Yesterday he chased one of the squirrels up a tree. Tried to go up after it, but he's ten...

Cry. :lol: I love the way this question is worded. It isn't about being five again. It's about suddenly being encased in a 59 year old body. ..Yea, I'd probably be quite frightened! I love the idea of a daily question! ..When I was five, I was listening to Light My Fire and Do You Know The...

I couldn't vote. Every one of these cats is beautiful, and cherished by someone, and i could find a reason to claim each one is the best ever. Thank you for letting us see though. Me and Captain Meow always appreciate visits from the "neighbor cats". Charming!

Oh this is a good article! I'm the one who payed $600 (which hurt because I'm on social security (I'm old)..and you get left alone, so I got a cat. But then I got robbed by a vet who did things I never agreed to, tripling the bill. When I pointed that out, she threatened to keep my loved one...

I had mine neutered (in Massachusetts) 9 years ago, so can't give recent numbers, BUT I'd like to point out, you may get a price quoted, but then your vet may add to it without reason, or even asking - just to help pay for their second sail boat. The vet I picked quoted me $190 TOTAL, for an...

Oh bless you. Thank you. Yea I'm getting a comb in the morning. I appreciate the tips on how to use it. (I dont usually worry about fleas because he's an indoors cat, but..now it seems necessary)

Cats are notoriously fussy about their litter boxes being just so, and if anything is out of place all of a sudden, they may protest by not using it. Also, mine for example, lets me know when he isn't feeling well by purposely not using the box right, or at all. So I respond to that by giving...
