    Does anyone else suffer from horrendous migraines?

    Eek! I sure hope my 3 don't inherit their Daddy's migraines... They're still only 6, 7 and 9 so too early to tell. The oldest does get the occasional headache. Yikes, I'd hate to see them have to go through it too. Hopefully my non-headachyness will cancel out my hubbys...?

    De-Sexed Male Cat "Performing" on me!!

    Jaffacake, I had a good giggle over that picture - you're right. He does NOT look impressed! chowchow, if Swee'Pea was fixed late too I guess it would make sense that she would do the same thing too. I know it's not the same instance but when Isaac wants to play with Gibson he will do this...

    Does anyone else suffer from horrendous migraines?

    I rarely get headaches. I got a few wicked ones while pregnant though. The kind that last for days and you end up crying during. However, I have watched my DH suffer through cluster headaches and migraines since we've been together (14 years). He didn't even know he had migraines - I was the...

    De-Sexed Male Cat "Performing" on me!!

    Well, I'm not too sure myself. One time I decided I just had to see if he was genuinely - ahem - 'ready' so I put my hand under there and - yes, indeed - it was so. lol and eww. I don't know if they are able to complete the job though but then why do they get down and clean??

    De-Sexed Male Cat "Performing" on me!!

    lol, this keeps getting better and better! I haven't gotten Gibson a stuffy yet. I've taken to just pushing his rear end down. Half of the times he just lays down and it's over, the other half he gets all huffy and tries to continue or jumps down and gives himself a clean 'down there'...

    Is Gibson Maine Coon?

    Ya, I think you're right. Interestingly, I looked up Norweigan Forest on wikipedia and it says: "They are rumored to be the early ancestors of the Maine Coon and the long-haired Manx." "They are very large cats with adult males weighing 13 to 22 lb. Their hind legs are longer than their...

    Is Gibson Maine Coon?

    Aw thanks! I guess we've had him about 6 weeks now and he's becoming more and more a lap cat. He's getting the 'shelter' life out of his system and becoming a house cat again. It's funny - we are in on the west coast of Canada and anyone who sees him says they've never seen a cat like him...

    How Many Inches of Snow do You Have?!

    I don't know - I am on the southern west coast (wet coast) so don't get much snow here. I spent 3 years on the prairies and almost went mental with all the cold and snow. I think the people in the snowy places just live a different lifestyle and if it's all you know/have grown up with, then...

    What is it with my cats and TVs??

    Gee, my first thought was - 'wow, nice tv'! Cute kitty too! Isaac likes to do that with the computer monitor too. So many interesting things to chase.

    Is Gibson Maine Coon?

    Ahhhh, that makes sense. Well, he is that isn't he?? lol. I looked up Cymric manx and that would seem to fit his description, with the mane, longer back legs, rounded face/profile, wide spaced ears. I had noticed that he is a really good jumper which happens to fit too. Thanks everybody!

    I got a new coffee maker this week!

    Hey! We just got a Hamilton Beach Brew Station for Christmas!! It's not the deluxe though. My parents took pity on us, with our old cheap thing we had. The door to the coffee ground holder thingy wouldn't stay closed so once the water started running through it would swing open and make...

    Is Gibson Maine Coon?

    Thanks everybody! I guess I posted this in the wrong place and it was moved so I never got any reply notices! Yes, his tail appears to be legimitately stumpy. I read up on Manx online and he fits the 'dog of cats' profile. I wondered about his big 'ruff' and all that hair. He is very...

    How Many Inches of Snow do You Have?!

    This is bizarre - I watched the news and it seems like everyone in Canada and the US is getting heaps of snow...except for us! It's a little cloudy here but we've just had cool with sun or cloud and rain. I'm not complainin'
