Miss Moneypenny got FIVE teeth pulled yesterday. They were quite nasty. After sleeping off the anesthesia, she devoured an entire can of food by herself and is already acting like a whole new cat. I have a sneaking suspicion that her bout with hepatic lipidosis last year may have been brought...

I have $10 to my name... haven't recovered financially from last month's $2500 vet excursion, and Little Cat's chronic eye infection's acting up right now too, so HE went to the vet Friday. I've still got a syringe. Guess I'm going to try assist feeding her again. This is so disappointing...

Yaaay! I completely understand your excitement over that first nibble. :-D As long as he keeps it up, he's bound to be out of the woods! E

I don't think I'd ever buy a purebred, but I admit to being squarely in the Scottish Fold camp. I might adopt one from a rescue group someday, if one ever comes up. They neeeever do.

I live in Las Vegas. What are these "seasons" of which you speak? I think it hit 80 today, which seems to me to be more temperate than usual for April, but it's hard to tell. Any day where it's not 115 is a good day here.

Yummy! I sort of "accidentally" discovered that drizzling rum over the marshmallows before putting it in the oven is super-yum. It's my new "secret" thanksgiving trick. Grilled artichokes?

Heya, thought I'd share my two cat story with you: I introduced Little Cat (male) to Moneypenny, who had been the sole queen of the household for years. She was 4, and he was 8 months. When I adopted her, she had been in the shelter with her 7 month old kitten, and all of the notes on them...

Hmm, if we're going to go into previous cats, I had two others: Shadow - was my childhood cat and was solid grey. Rather unimaginative, I know, but when he got to be a big ol' 20 pounder, it was a bit funny. Havok - My best friend found him as a lost little baby under one of those big central...

I still think this was a very silly protest on her part to my going on vacation without her. Hmph! I might be too scared to go anywhere for summer break now - though this has put such a dent in my finances that I guess it's not that big a concern anyway. :-P

Hey there - for what it's worth, I never added anything to the a/d besides water. It was 25ml of water mixed with a can of a/d, and I did the water flushes afterwards (about 10ml). I'm glad that my story is helping you out. I have a suspicion that just giving their bodies something to process...

Calico, because she has three colors. Tortoiseshell would be two colors only. (I think)

Back from the vet - Moneypenny's bandage is off, the infection's dried up, and she's gained a whole pound since Thursday! Vet told me to keep her on antibiotics for another week and stick with the denosyl for a month, but that I don't need to come back for six weeks. Yay! We didn't do any...

I really like all of these. The flowers one is a neat touch incorporating my user name a little! Thanks again, everybody. I'll swap em all in and out.

Crab Cakes - SUPER yum Pickled Okra?

Hey, thanks! Great job!
