Alright, so I suppose it's time for an update. I've been gone for quite some time now. I think most of you know that my husband left me in August last year, and I've been having to do a lot of couch hopping to try to get by. I finally got a job transfer, so I'm back In TN now. I'm working a...

Thought I would take a moment to let everyone know that I am still alive. Even if some days I kind of wish I wasn't. I'm still homeless. The house project I was working on got canceled. After all the work I put into it, the guy decided that he was just going to charge me over half of what I...

I haven't been able to get online very often. I know a few of you have been worried about me and I can't find my earlier thread to update. I am still going through the divorce process. Right now I'm still homeless, though I'm staying at one place fairly frequently, but still having to find...

Well, I have begun deconstruction of my new home today. (It's not mine, but I've been given permission to do with it as I will.) I did a little work very early this morning (3 am ish) and then got some sleep. Then I got back to it later. So. I'm posting a lot of pictures, little by little...

He told me today on my lunch break that he just doesn't love me anymore and hasn't for a long time. I'm moving out today, won't have internet for I just don't know how long. He's keeping Ginger, but I have to figure out what to do with my other 3. God, I never saw this coming.

So my in laws wanted to bring a truck and trailer up to help us move. Great! fantastic! But KNOWING that I have 4 cats in the house, they brought their dog?! I mean seriously. Like it's not going to be stressful enough trying to keep the cats contained while I get all the boxes on the trailer...

Taking all four of my furbabies in for Rabies Vacs, and general check ups. I'm expecting everything to go well -- other than the fact that it's ALL FOUR going at once. I'm very very glad that Hubby managed to get off work for an hour to come help me with them. (They actually allowed him time...

I know on one of these threads, someone was looking for Bonito flakes for cats. Well I found some online and even though they're a tad expensive, part of the cost funds food for shelter animals. I thought you guys would love to check it out. The site (link to the flakes below) has a TON of...

The move date for me and the kitties is the 22nd of August. It's getting here way too fast! I've got most of our stuff packed, other than the essentials, and the cats all seem to realize that something's going on. They don't want to go outside. They're wanting more attention and reassurance...

Over the next month, the people we rent our home to are going to start showing our apartment. Not only do I feel like I'm being HUGELY invaded by all of this, (I mean, really? I'm packing my stuff to leave, and that's when the house is the biggest wreck possible) but we're not actually allowed...

Ever since she has her kittens when she was about 2 years old (I was only like 14, so I had no control over it) Prissy has been a sensitive, caring nurturing kitty. She started making this loud, "Rowr rowr" noise when she had food, or toys, or wanted to call her kittens to her. This was normal...

It may take us a few months yet, but we are in the process of moving. We are already looking at a property and if we are approved for the VA Loan, we will be getting a home improvement loan as well. We will be putting up a large wooden fence, and getting 200 ft of the cat-proofing fence. As soon...

I understand that she's still a little traumatized from being trapped wherever she was for however long she was trapped. I know that she's going to have some issues, at least for a while, but there are some things that are just worrying me. I've spoken to a vet and he's basically just saying...

Happy birthday Smudgie! A year ago today, you were scaring the crap out of me because Loudmouth was too tired from a long labor to push you out! But you did come, eventually, and I'm so happy to have you! Your Mom has found a new home, but you're still here with me and your two older siblings...

She's going to be such a happy girl. She's been making me cringe when she rubs up against my legs and those stitches drag across my skin or jeans. I'll let you all know how that goes after her apt tomorrow, but can anyone think of any concerns for after the stitches, any questions I should ask...

Ginger will get her stitches out in a few more days, and her course of antibiotics will be over. However, I've noticed that she seems to be having a few tummy issues, including soft stools. I want to give her something to improve her "good" cultures but I don't know when it will be ok to...

Ginger is doing great! She's even been playing today! Her wound is less red and less swollen today. It doesn't seem to be itching or hurting as badly, since she hasn't once scratched at it today. She's put on some weight already, too. She's not all skin and bones today, which is a great relief...

I'm posting for a friend of mine. My friend Crystal has a 5 year old russian blue that vomits about once a day. He's ok some days, but some days he vomits twice. Sometimes the food is mostly undigested, but sometimes it's just stomach soup. She has no idea what could be causing it, and says...

I have a post in the Crossing the Bridge section for my cat Ginger who ran away from the cat sitter while I was on vacation. The cat sitter called me the next day, saying that she had found ginger hit by a car on the roadside, but she was still breathing, so she rushed her to the vet, who...

Prissy is doing great. She had her tail medically removed a while back, and I thought I'd let everyone know how she's doing. Since we had the necrosed tissue removed, she has been an entirely different cat. She went from being a lazy, somewhat distant lap cat to being an energetic...
