I live in a dorm. No cat jumping on my keyboard... I miss my cat.

On a side note we (the city of El Paso where I am currently not located) had a mountain line prowling some of the neighborhoods that were built a bit too close to the mountains. From my understanding several people are missing pet dogs and one person was very lucky that he had a VERY large pet dog (forget the breed) or alternatly that it wasn't hungry (the cat that is) as he was walking it and they ran into the cat.

Hrmm... that was almost a year ago. I wonder if anything has happened with that since then. Some of the people wanted to hire someone to kill it.

Had found a cat that had been living in my neighbor's front bushes for quite some time- she had a little cleared out area where she was hanging out at.

I used to feed her periodically, but finally just adopted her in until I could find someone to take her.

She was the friendliest orange tabby-cat I have ever met! She would always like to hang around me while I played on my computer, and adored being pet. But she wasn't in very good shape, and was very thin and was always drooling.

Finally, I got in contact with a stray animal adoption/clinic place, and the owner told me that she had hypo-thyroidism, which accounted for her being thin. The owner decided to take her home so she could have proper care, and because the owner just loved that cat too.

When I asked them about why she would always drool, they said that the cat would get so excited about being pet she would drool! :^)

They also said that orange, striped females are rare in cats.

No offense to anybody here but besides the fact that they make cute sounds, cuddly, and just has a face that you can't frown upon, cats are the pets from down under under.

They really don't obey you,
They really can't be trained,
They make bad... stuff around,
and... they... scratch... horribly...



Dogs are the way for me

Speaking of cats...

My cat Spoogy might have just saved me from a dangerous situation. I was washing dishes and listening to music pretty loud when I saw my cat dash out onto my balcony, which he does when something interesting is happening. I don't usually make anything of it, but I took a quick look out from the kitchen and there was a person just below (my balcony is about 2 metres off the ground). I just thought it was someone walking their dog as usual...but two minutes later, the single lady next door comes banging on my door...someone was just on her balcony!

Lucky for me, if it wasn't for my cat, the guy would probably have came onto my balcony and since my door was nice and wide open...who knows...

Cats do the darndest Things

My 1 cat Boots, does somethng similiar, if my wife is in laundry room and someone comes to the door, he will run in and get her, taps her with a paw and then heads for front door. he also plays marbles, tag, hide & Seek and chase. you chase him, tag him then run away, he will chase you, jump up, tag you with paw, then take off running so you have to chase and tag him again...or tag him and hide he will look for you, touch yu with paw then run and hide himself... This is the honest truth, strangest cat I've ever seen,

be careful, be very very careful
look to the sky
its "THEM"

just some ideas mac

Yeah, Spoogy likes to play fetch with these toy mice he has. It's kind of funny because we keep them in a low cabinet and he'll go open it and bring one out to me to throw for him. Of course, he always seems to do this just when I trying to take over the universe.

This is factually incorrect. The meat on cats' hind legs (the only meaty part of them) tastes like liver, with a particularily rank aftertaste that you will get from the meat of any carnivore. You may find reference to cat meat in the south eastern US where I have heard it called 'roof rabbit'

Now dog meat tastes a whole lot better, in fact just like oily chicken. I suspect this is due to the omnivorous nature of dogs. I wouldn't reccomend the tongue but that is mainly my Western dislike of eating anything that has slurped on a dog's genitalia


Re the reference to the "original" Growltigga looking like a mountain lion, she is not quite that big but I did have to contribute toward vetinary fees of £600 Last year after next doors' Alsation went for her and ran into that ol' famous GT razorblade whirlwind - result Alsation 0, GT about 634
