Gizmo does it again! Another poignant interview.
You sure have some pretty cats Dansy.

[Aquamarine]

LOL!

Wonderful! I LOVE these interviews. Oh, my favorite photo has to be Sylvie on the toilet top!

That's sweet that the cats were kind as the weakest as she was preparing to pass on: that's also unusual. A lot of cats -- it's just their nature -- will start to "hunt" older, sicker cats more.

Really? I never knew this. Maybe this is why Lucy and Bubba seem to be squabbling soooo much more lately. Bubba is 15 and had a tumor-filled eye removed a year ago. Hmmmm.... something to consider.

[iceskater]

Another excellent job by Gizmo. He's getting quite good at the interviewing!

Sylvie and Smokie are wonderful! I also loved the picture on the toilet. I wish I could think of something clever to say about "cats" and "thrones" but my coffee has not yet kicked in this morning.

Have a terrific day.

It's true. They can't help it -- most cats can't anyway. They're half-wild and hunters too. Depending on how well their mom taught them to hunt, they can get tremendous reward from "pretending" to attack and kill another thing.

Things to do: keep the claws of the able cat clipped often and begin to teach her she's a bad cat if she makes any threatening play gesture -- spraying her with water when she attacks, etc.

LOL. Very cute!

Good morning. How are we today?

[LadyX]

"How are we today?"

Not sure about you - LOL - but * I * am fine!!

On my way to the Post Office and grocery store, and hoping for inspiration for what to have for dinner...sigh...wonder if they sell MRE's..:))
That'd be simple enough!

Please do not sic your cats on The Thin Man today.
Poor fellow needs his rest.

[iceskater]

Well, we got Lucy from the Humane Society who had rescued her. She may very well have been quite a hunter before she was rescued. We're not even really sure exactly how old she is.

Without realizing it, we've pretty much done what you recommended. They both get yelled at when the squabbling starts. Then they run off into separate areas of the house and calm down.

[iceskater]

You have posted some truly adorable pictures. Thanks! I especially like the kitty in the sunglasses.

[martin_fierro]

Woobies are truly indispensible.

GIZMO KNOWS!

G'morning everyone!!!

[lonestar]

What a cute frog! I spoke to .45MAN earlier and he's swamped - don't know when he'll get to come visit. :-(

People shouldhn't have to w-o-r-k (ugh) on their birthday!

[dansangel]

(((((Meekie)))))

That dog is so funny! Someone here has it hanging outside their cubicle. It makes me smile every time I see it! :-)

[dansangel]

You sure have some pretty cats Dansy.

Thank you ((((((Aqua)))))

I know you are a "dog person" so I take that as a high compliment! :-) Hope your Tuesday is great!

[dansangel]

Oh, my favorite photo has to be Sylvie on the toilet top!

Mine, too, ((((((((Freezie))))))

Doesn't she look like "Queen of the Universe?" LOL!!

That's sweet that the cats were kind as the weakest as she was preparing to pass on:

That would have been Smokie. She's very gentle in nature. I'm not sure Sylvie would have been as kind. We adopted her about 7 weeks after Cookie passed. Sylvie is a spitfire! LOL!

[dansangel]

Sylvie and Smokie are wonderful!

Thank you ((((((iceskater)))))))

Haven't seen you in *forever*! Glad you came by for a visit. Enjoy your Tuesday! :-)

Thanks for the picture of a woobie - I felt like a *dork* for not knowing what it was! LOL!

[FreeTheHostages]

Smokie sounds so nice. Seems, like me, you have cats with alter egos -- it makes for a good match.

[dansangel]

*I HATE cats! Almost as much as squirrels!

That's OK (((((weinie)))) - I still love you! :-)
