I have two orange/ginger cats named Eric and Sarah. Eric's full name is Eric James. He is a big guy -- 18 lbs./8 kilos -- and is named after the Viking Erik the Red. He is 21 years old. Sarah is named after Sarah Ferguson, The Duchess of York. Her middle name is Margaret, but my Sarah's is...
Cole's cancer had spread to his left kidney, and his appetite had diminished. He was going downhill, and his quality of life was decreasing. His owners said they take comfort in knowing he's at peace, and there's no more vet visits and no more meds for him to take. They loved him enough to...
Cole spent his last few days on a makeshift bed in the tub. Chris and Jess took turns lying with him. They posted Cole and Marm's last snuggle together. Marm liked to groom Cole, and Cole appreciated that. I'm sure Marm knew the end was coming. He sensed it. But Chris said there has been a...
R.I.P. Cole, of Cole and Marmalade fame, who lost his heroic battle with cancer today, October 10, 2021. He was nine years old. His owners Chris Poole and Jessica Josephs made the very difficult decision to euthanize him when his body could no longer tolerate the cancer, and knew it was time...
I have read the entire Panther saga. It's remarkable how far he has come. Angel and Sammie definitely brought Panther to you. Imagine what dire straits he would have been in without you. It's been exhausting for you to be Panther's pediatric nurse, but the small victories have been...
I've had pets for over 50 years. Nothing grosses me out anymore. Worms are not normal for any animals. Email the vet with your questions if s/he doesn't have the time to answer them for you. But listen to the person with D.V.M. or V.M.D. after his or her name. Advice by a non-vet can be...
Principal -- but he wasn't your pal. Was there a paddle in the office when you were in school? There was in mine. It was never used on me, but my dad pointed it out to me at the beginning of every school year. He was in the Navy for 20 years, so he was very strict with me. I didn't like it...
Sarah threw a tantrum because her staff (classmates) were not at her beck and call, and felt neglected when she was not told she was beautiful at least 20 times during the school day. Her name means "princess," and she certainly is that.
Eric is extremely intelligent, so he finished his...

Got a phone call from the principle back when they were in an earlier grade about PDA during nap time. Had to go down and explain that Shade had just came back from spending the night at his doctor so Noka was slightly touchy...
My orange girl Sarah is 21 today. No hitting the kitty bars and getting drunk on tuna martinis!
She was dumped at my former church when she was three months old. I've had her ever since. She's been an indoor girl all these years, and she's fine with that. My orange boy Eric will be 19 in...
