Pumpkin is a big fan of crumpled receipts. They make very economical toys, since they're free and tend to accumulate. Recyclable, too. RussianKitten, it's good to hear that you're confronting things head on. Do keep us posted, and don't forget to post cat pictures.

Rehoming them would only continue the vicious cycle that you've been through already. But you know that already. Focus on the happiness, and keep it near to your heart. It's powerful. And I say that it doesn't matter whether you deserve them, and that whether you do or not, they're yours, and...

This show holds a special place in my household. Caruso's one-liners are truly epic.

I don't do much out of the ordinary, but I usually take echinacea daily... I don't know whether it actually works or whether it's just a placebo, but it seems effective. Other than that, I try to avoid dehydration, eat fairly healthy (plenty of fiber, fruits and vegetables). I'm not against flu...

Those three are adorable, beautiful cats. I hope for the best for you and for them. When our animals love us, that love has a way of being unconditional. They don't judge us, they don't fault us, so long as we provide for their needs, provide some play time, and show them a shred of affection...

Pumpkin got her name because of her eyes. My GF first saw her in the late afternoon, and in that light they looked very orange... pumpkin colored. Zero was named by one of the other tenants in our apartment at the time... named after the dog from The Nightmare Before Christmas. Naming a...

Reminds me of Bratkartoffeln (pardon the google translate), which I usually make for Thanksgiving. Serve something tall, dark, and alcoholic... My way: boil (or microwave... if time is of the essence), fry with cooking spray (olive oil) & onions & garlic. Plenty flavor, without adding too much...

Wow, frightening! I've had migraines nearly that bad before, but only if i'm really tired, dehydrated, and at work... only to a point where speaking is difficult, but not impossible. I hope your neurologist can help...

Zero's nose changes a bit, too. Well, the pink half does, anyway. If he's really relaxed, sleeping, etc., it's usually paler, but it gets redder, more flushed if he's playing or being crazy. After a long session with Da Bird or the laser pointer, it's nearly red. His pink toes also change a bit...

I've always been doing the same thing... I'm a classical musician. So, my first work, when I was 15, was for the Salvation Army; they recruited brass ensembles to play next to their collection buckets during the Christmas season. They always liked to find high-school kids that could play well...

Hmm... Actors: Sir Ian McKellan, Brian Blessed, James Earl Jones. But that's a hard choice. My honorable mentions would have to include Patrick Stewart, Simon Pegg, Christopher Lee & Peter Cushing (if you haven't seen them as Dracula and Van Helsing, you should), Ewan MacGreggor, John...

we have a 2 quart dispenser and a fountain (cheap blue one from petco). two cats empty the dispenser weekly, and we have to top off the fountain every other day or so.

'86 VW Vanagon. Not the camper, just the 7-seat version. I still drive it nearly every day, has over 200,000 miles so far. Didn't know /anything/ about auto maintenance when I got it, but that changed quickly.

Pieces seem to be around 1/4". This is probably overkill but it may be useful to somebody... I should add, Pumpkin likes to crunch it, but Zero mostly just swallows the pieces whole.

It's refreshing to see kitties get rescued when evil things have happened to them... she sounds like a total sweetheart, and she's very lucky to have found you! Vibes for you that she can be made healthy and whole, and have a home somewhere.
