Some time ago, I got a new chair in the living room, a swivel rocker. Due to circumstances beyond my control, the living room was packed with stuff for quite a long time (about four or five months) and the chair was inaccessible--to humans. The cats got to it without problem, and I ended up...

To start off with I have four cats; Asia, Princess, Ra, and Spot (yes, Spot is a cat). They're almost three years old (birthday February 2), and the one I'm worried about is Asia. Let me explain. All right, the last few nights everyone has been going to sleep at a decent hour (except me, who...

For my birthday (back at the beginning of the month) I got an ice cream machine, and last night I made my very first batch of ice cream that I got from an online blog written by someone who has the exact same make and model maker I do. He recommended a base of: 2 cups whole milk 2 cups heavy...

This thread is all about bread, and bread recipes. Please share--I love bread.

There is a feral cat clowder that lives up by my work. They fish in trash cans, get fed by customers and people who live in the trailer park behind the store, and someone has taken almost all of the adults up to the shelter to be TNR'd. (I know because the shelter here notches the ears of the...

Okay, so I was browsing my Youtube channel when I realized--I have a lot of cat videos here, so I thought I'd post them here, on The Cat Site. Here goes. This is Rose. Rose hunting something. AWM and Rose playing. Cats fit into the darndest places, don't they? Rose used to suckle...

First of all, our house has six cats; Rose, Slipper, Princess, Asia, Spot, and Ra; and three humans; RB, AWM, and me. The problem child of this thread is Slipper. Cats love tight spaces (not sure why) and Slipper is no exception to the rule. All of them like getting in boxes, sleeping in the...

To start off our house has six cats; Rose, Slipper, Spot, Ra, Asia, and Princess. It also has three humans; RB, AWM, and me. A few weeks ago before a series of rainstorms that we were worried would flood the region, we were working in the yard and turned the wheelbarrow upside down to keep it...

First of all our house has six cats; Rose, Ra, Slipper, Princess, Spot and Asia. All of them have this problem. It's that time of year again--time for the trees to be leaking sap (I know, several of the cats have sap in their fur). They don't like being brushed, they don't like being wiped down...

To start off with our house has six cats; Rose, Ra, Princess, Slipper, Asia, and Spot. Last year AWM, one of the three people in the house, changed her job from the post office to working for Uber, and last week was Master's (golf, for those who didn't grow up in the area), and working became...

To start off with, our house has six cats; Rose, Ra, Slipper, Princess, Asia, and Spot. Ra is the problem child of this thread. Another thing is that I've been collecting fairy figurines since I was ten, and my collection started with fairies that I got from the Dollar Tree (I didn't have much...

To start off with, I don't know if this is in the right thread, but here goes. Our house has six cats; Rose, Ra, Slipper, Spot, Asia, and Princess, and Ra is the (big) baby of the thread. I spend a lot of time with the cats, and I've literally known five of them (including Ra) since the day...

First of all, our house has six cats; Rose, Ra, Princess, Spot, Asia, and Slipper.  So, I've known for quite some time that my cats are hunters. Last year around this time they brought in birds, a couple months ago Rose brought in a lizard and they've all brought in assorted insects for hunting...

To start with our house has six cats; Rose, Princess, Spot, Ra, Slipper, and Asia. They are all problem children for this thread. The other thing you need to know is that I make things. Normally I make yarn blankets and comfort quilts, but my grandmother asked me to make a couple of receiving...

This is a book that I won in a contest on the site. I read the book and I was struck by several things that I wanted to share. (Not certain where to put this, so I started a new thread.) Since this a book about how cats can inspire us, I thought I'd take a picture of it with a cat (and the...

As I was going through some of my threads and subscriptions, I noticed that a lot of people have quotes about cats in their signatures. So, I decided to tell everyone my favorite cat quotes and let them tell me theirs. So, here are a few of my favorites. I wish I could write as mysterious as a...

I thought about putting this in "Behavior", but it's not really a problem--just puzzling for me. Let me backtrack. Our house has six cats; Rose, Princess, Ra, Slipper, Asia, and Spot. The cats are indoor/outdoor cats. Asia used to have an odd little quirk; she wouldn't come back into the house...

A little bit of back story--I've been cooking for the house for years, and primarily I make desserts and roasts. Yesterday I was making custard--which is something I should  be able to do in my sleep. The custard was--horrible. The first batch curdled, the second batch tasted like sweet...

To start off with my house has six cats; Rose, Slipper, Princess, Asia, Spot and Ra. Princess is the baby of this thread. The first thing you need to know about Princess is that she's not a cuddle cat. She loves to be pet, but she doesn't like to cuddle. You can imagine my surprise when, on my...

First of all our house has six cats; Princess, Rose, Ra, Spot, Asia, and Slipper. Last month I used some old egg cartons to start a seedling bed, and recently brought the seedling beds out of the windowless room they were  in (to keep the soil moist and warm) to the dining room table, where they...
