I once had a roommate who couldn't understand why I would have a pet instead of using the money to improve the conditions for humans. I spent about $30 a month on my cat, she sent her money to Save the Children or some other charity like that. How do you explain caring about a pet to someone...

When I got Charli, I was told she was a boy. She had strong stripes along her spine that looked like a train track to me so I named "him" Choo-choo Charlie. By the time we found out he was a she, I was already used to Charlie so I just changed to spelling to look more feminine. It doesn't...

Oh, and my friend's cat Archie practically knocked me out of my seat trying to get a strawberry sorbet popsicle out of my hand

My current cats don't seem much interested in human food, but I did have one who liked green peppers off pizza and rice with butter and soy sauce. I found this out both times because the cat was begging, and I tried to show her that she wasn't interested in what I was eating. Wrong on both counts!

How nice to get such a warm welcome. Here is a picture of my babies:

Many years ago -- seriously, close to 20 -- I was a new parent who had just moved to California where I didn't know anybody except my husband. I found The Cat Site in its then-incarnation and met a bunch of like-minded cat lovers. Well my baby is now 22 and I am divorced, but I got to thinking...

I would love to post photos of my kitties, but I have trouble taking pictures of Momo. He is all black and comes out like a blob in photos. I notice some of you have quite dark cats but manage to get good pics. How do you do it? Is it possible with a phone with no special features?

When I was still married, I asked hubby to do all kinds of things like that. Now that it's just me, I don't even make that little startled scream, I just take care of it. You'd be amazed at what you can do when you have to. You'll be fine. My daughter (6 years old) brings me bugs all the...

Lorie, that must be very scary for you! Some few other thoughts: I expect to tell my daughter she can always call me. Even if I am aggravated to have to go out at midnight to pick her up, I'd rather be annoyed for a couple hours than have something terrible happen to her. I think you could...

Very cute piccy!

I'll bite. I've done similar projects in the past, this could be interesting.

How funny that your cat is so protective! Maybe it would be a good idea to put her in the bedroom when boyfriend comes over to get your daughter. Maybe if she doesn't see them leave it won't be such a problem. Is she just upset with boyfriend, or is it any friend who picks up your daughter...

I think cats just like to be high. Mine like the top of the wall unit. Opie looks very happy. I love the white up his nose to his forehead!

I think cats tell you what they want to be called. One day you just wake up and you know. She's very pretty and all that soft kitten fuzz!

Wow, that was very cool. I've never seen that kind of cactus make a flower before. It is odd-looking in its bud state. I guess since the desert is hot and dry during the day, it kind of makes sense to close it up in the morning and protect the delicate blossom. I wonder what the seeds are like?

Poor little shorn sheep! It makes his head look huge. But I'm sure he is much happier without all the choking and matting.

(((Debby))) I'm so sorry. To see such a promising life cut short is heartbreaking. Of course you are sad! But his suffering is over now. I hope they are able to make a diagnosis, I think there is a great deal of closure from knowing what happened. Peace and hugs

How is a black raspberry different from a blackberry? Okay, it's a little silly, but if I don't ask I'll never know.

I miss having kittens so much! What a cutie, and such an intelligent little face. I want him!
