5 years ago, I rescued a dog and named her Lily.  She passed away suddenly and a friend of mine sent me an arrangement of lilies in her memory.  I had no idea then that they were toxic to cats and I cut the stems and out them in a vase.  My bridge kitty, Sissy, go one of those stem pieces and...

Blue has been on Methimazole for about 2 years now and has done well...on and off.  We have had some crazy medication issues, but everything seems to be regulated now.  However, over the last few days, Blue has started vomiting (pretty much the entire meal) right after he eats.  He is very...

My black beauty - Juno Regal Rex My 13 year old son is taking a photography class...and this is what he took of Momma Kitty.  :) Pictures of the rest of the crew to come.  :)  

Long time, no post for me.  I saw the senior cat contest on my FB page and just had to enter my old man, Blue.  I thought I would share some updated pics.  If you remember us, you probably remember the little baby kitten I bottlefed and named "Mr. Meowgie."  When he was little and I gave him...

Here he was the day I got him: He was barely 2 weeks old and was abandoned by his momma.  I bottlefed him He grew into a handsome young man,.. Fiesty as all get-out His tail got REALLY poofy... And he got really poofy too! Here he is at 9 mos old.  I can't believe he was once...

Blue, my "old man" started with a thyroid problem in December of 2010.  We started him on medication (methimazole) and he wasn't getting much better.  We did more bloodwork this past December and upped the dose. (from 10mg per day to 30 mg per day).  He was doing great, but still not gaining...

Blue was trying to get water out of a cup.  He started licking and I thought it was cute that he just couldn't quite get to the water, but he kept trying.  While I had the camera going, he figured out a way to get the water!  What a smart "old man" he is!  Blue will be 15 in April.  Apparently...

Chloe being really lady-like Rexy lovin' on his daddy Meowgie doing some stretch sleeping Blue sleeping all curled up Chloe again...see a pattern with this girl? Rex too right up where Chloe left off with the modesty.  But...he's smiling...  :)

I wanted to make a donation to our local kill shelter on behalf of a pet, so I went today and found the one I wanted to "sponsor."  The problem is, that is only half the battle with this place.  Once the neuter fee is paid, the cat becomes a "$35 adoptee."  Someone still has to see him, fall in...

What meowmy???  Whatchu lookin' at?  You neber see'd a kitty roll round in his catnip before???  hehe

Blue woke me up this morning by jumping on the bed and purring at me.  It absolutely killed me to put that pill down his throat to sedate him and then put him in the carrier given how stressed the trip to the vet made him yesterday!  :(  But I know it is for his own good.  He is at the vet now...

Good news first:  Meowgie was neutered this morning and came through the surgery just great.  He is resting at the vet now and waking up and will come home tonight with my husband when he gets off work. Not so good news:  Blue is declining in health.  I knew he was, but having it confirmed just...

My baby Meowgie is headed to the vet tomorrow to be neutered, microchipped, and given his rabies shot.  Blue is headed there for his "senior cat blood panel" to check his thyroid.  I am a nervous nelly and worried to death that something will happen to Meowgie during surgery.  I am paying extra...

I took Percy to a local vet (not my normal vet) this afternoon because his eye has been mildly swollen and red for the last day and a half or so.  She took a look at him and said she didn't see a scratch, but she thought that was what had happened.  She gave him neomycin (sp) for his eye, but...

My cats ADORE this box bed and it is HUGE.  We ordered it from www.auntieemcreations.com (board member, Amy's (momofmany) store and it came last Friday.  I moved it to the area under the cat tree because the cats kept scooting it across the floor when they would play.  Since I moved it, it has...

I am not sure if this is the right forum for this, but I thought it fit here because it is just a general sharing.  :) I live in a small, rural area and it has been hard for me to get access to quality pet foods without driving quite a distance or paying a lot in shipping.  When I switched the...

I posted a pic of Meowgie and Chloe last week and got lots of fun responses about floofy tailed kitties.  I'd love to see yours!!  :)  I will add some more here of mine...with tails puffed out...too.  :) Momma...about a month ago.  She is acutally MORE poofy now than she was then!!  AND...she...

Meowgie is getting so big and pretty!  He is going to be a floofy tail like Chloe and Momma kitty! And...speaking of Chloe floofy tail, here she is getting her turn in the hammock.  :) My cats have loved this one piece of furniture more than anything else they own!

I knew my meowmy instincts were right...I just didn't know the right place to look. :(  Tonight, I was out in the garage giving momma and percy their nighttime canned food and I went to pet her and felt something hard.  I parted her 3 inch (truly...sooo long) fur and dug to the skin and found...

Momma Kitty is one of my two indoor/outdoor cats.  She has run of the land during the day and comes into the garage at night. They have a litter box and food galore and a cat flap so they can come and go as they please.  She catches things in the wild - like the red bird whose head and feathers...
