    etiquette advice

    Joshua took his last chemo pill last month. Next week we are having an End-of-Treatment party for him. Coincidently enough, it is also his 6th birthday! Anyway, our priest called the other day to say that he couldnt attend because of confessions and Mass, but that he wanted to take care of the...

    It's a conspiracy! :-)

    Seems I was locked out of the site for a couple days. Every time I tried to access the page, I got the stark-white-page-of-doom saying the page was unavailable. At first I thought just the TCS server was down or something, but after a couple days I thought it was worse! I tried from both my...

    another kitty naming thread

    sort of... I thought I'd take Rianna's lead and get your guys' input also. We are keeping one of our foster's kittens. He is a fluffy (long haired) red with white polydactyl. From the day he was born we were calling him Butterfinger. It seemed fitting because of his color and all his toes -...

    Cat Burglar

    Literally! We have two fosters right now, one whose kittens turned 8 weeks today, and one whose kits are 3 weeks. My husband and I were winding down on the couch tonight watching a movie when all of a sudden we heard a crash in the basement. When he went down there we found a cat - presumably...

    Coble Trinity

    I'm not sure if this is in the right place... it's not really an IMO, but it is regarding a news story. Anyway... Have any of you heard of the Coble family who lost their 3 children in a horrible truck accident last May? 5-yr old Kyle, 4-yr old Emma and 2-yr old Katie. They are now expecting...

    Look well the cat dragged in...

    We received a new foster kiddie last night. I have been wrestling with myself regarding fostering two mom cats at the same time, but when I received the call, I gave in. Twix's litter will be 4 weeks old soon, so I reasoned the worths. She came into the shelter a little dirty, battered (with...

    Oh puh-lease meowmy!

    I took the foster kitties out on the back balcony to try and get some good pics (notice I said tried). I did managed to get one good shot though, of Mr. Roly-Poly; he wanted out to investigate in the worst way! The kittens cried the whole time which only fed his urge... but I exalted him with...

    Here's a new game idea. The prize paid to the first person to guess the answer correctly is a gift from the questioner. If you are the winner... you must Pay It Forward and ask the next question (and purchase the next winner their gift) and so on. There is no limit to the question asked. It can...

    Introducing Twix's Pot O' Gold

    It was suggested that I move this thread over from the Preggo Cat forum... Twix is a long-haired tortie that we are fostering from The A.N.N.A. Shelter. She has a wonderful disposition, and I have talked DH into adopting her after her kittens are weened and she is spayed. Twix's Pot O' Gold...

    How do you read the posts?

    I used to go into the cat forums, then choose each individual forum separately, usually spending the most time in the "Pregnant Cats and Kitten Care" forum and visiting the "Cat Lounge" as I found time. But I always wondered how others kept up with the messages from all the different forums...

    names

    For awhile now, my 5-yr old, Joshua has said that he wants to name one of the kittens Lucky. Maybe he had some sort of intuition. Twix had me up all night digging in each one of her boxes and in her litter. If it wasnt digging sounds it was licking sounds. She hasnt touched her food this...

    preggo bellies

    Thought it might be fun (and easier) to have a thread with all the preggo-kitty-bellies in one place. At least help us pass the time. This is Willow 3 years ago. It was taken the morning before she delivered. She only had 4 babies in that big ole belly.
