I find it interesting what people name their pets and how they selected a specific pet name. Mine are both pure black and litter mates. At first we were gravitating towards names that would fit black cats one of which was Amos and Andy just t o name one. They ended up with the names of JJ and Mojo. JJ was short for Jimmie Johnson (my husband is a NASCAR fan) and Mojo was named related to blues music, which we attend a blues festival every year in Main ...

I'm thinking about volunteering at my local animal shelter, but I'm having conflicting feelings. I'm a MAJOR animal lover, and I'm not sure if I can see animals in those conditions with nobody to love them and still be able to function and sleep at night without bringing them all home with me. I have 3 dogs and 2 cats of my own, and definitely would not have anymore room for another animal. I just want to feel like I helped and did a little bit of good for t ...

If so, what was the experience like for you? Did they help you with job, food stamps, finding a place to live? Or did you just stay there till you could get yourself out of your mess. Just wondering. ...

A few days ago our volunteer coordinator at our local animal shelter sent out an email informing us of a new program to help the dogs. I wanted to share this with everyone, and maybe if your shelters don't offer it, you could suggest it. The program is called Dog's Day Out. Any volunteer at our shelter who is a dog walker (must show up regularly) and has had at least one year experience at doing so, may now take a dog out of the shelter for an entire day. If enough people take adva ...

My husband and I married for about a year. His niece is having a baby. I am happy for her but have only seen her twice and got invite to baby shower, out of state, couldn't go, ultrasound of her baby on the invite and yesterday got 52 pics of her pregnancy pictures. If she and spouse happy, good but people should realize not everyone cares about seeing pregnancy pictures and as far as ultrasound, that would be just like me looking at someone's xray that I don't even know and could ...

I also joined Etsy, using my domain name. May I say...I wasn't terrifically impressed with quality of items for sale on Etsy. There were some phenomenal things....and then not so phenomenal...and the not-so-phenomenal stuff was selling too (maybe they just sold to their friends. I don't know. It didn't seem like it). So I guess that's a hopeful sign... ...I also have a *fun* job now, part-time, it is great to punch in, work, and voila! you get p ...

Maybe Michelle should have fed them one of her delicious lunches. ...

Bring me food, the kids ask their parents. We're still hungry. This is high school, mind you. My second grader eats more than this. Link ...

Yesterday a right-leaning website called Twitchy ran a picture of George Zimmerman in a suit and tie next to what they claimed was a picture of Trayvon Martin with no shirt and sagging pants. Twitchy is owned and operated by Michelle Malkin, a conservative pundit who is a frequent guest on Fox News. The picture of Zimmerman was real, but the picture of Martin was not. IMO, they have sunk to an all-time low this time, falling all over themelves trying to discredit a dead teenager w ...

How distinguished he looks here, huh? ...

No, I don't mean putting them in a sack with a brick and throwing them in a river... but how do you keep them from hanging around your home? My next door neighbor has started putting food out for strays and now there are 3 half grown kitten-cats that are hanging around not just her apartment, but mine too. Yesterday I sat down my groceries on my front step while I got my key out and they were nosing around my bags. Then when a few minutes later when I went to take out trash, they followed m ...

Hello all. Was wondering if anyone out there in MT land knows of an exotic shorthair cat breeder? I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks so much and Happy Thanksgiving!!!! ...

Usually my 3 cats come running when I give them treats. This morning 2 showed up, where is the other one? I have looked all through the house. Where in the world do kitties go when they just want to be alone, a kittie retreat? If they do not want to be found, usually that is what happens. I have looked in every nook and cranny, behind TVs, behind furniture. I know that kitty was just here this morning. He sits outside my bedroom door each morning until I appear. Now poof! ...

I never liked them but got this one when my mother died and I love this cat now. She goes out the doggie door and pretty much acts like one of the dogs. There's a stray cat that keeps coming over the fence and I finally figured out it was coming in during the night and eating all the treats and food left in the kitchen for my cat. Last night I heard mind screaming, got downstairs and the stray cat had attacked her. Mine hid for a long time and finally came out of hiding. She has some s ...

Over the years my cats have been on different dry and canned foods: Science Diet, expensive stuff from the vet that I can't recall the name of right now, etc. One of my babies has some allergies, resulting in sneezing and some colon issues. But overall they are healthy cats. A new Pet Club opened next door to the Wal-Mart, and I have been buying dry food there in large (30 lb. or so) bags to save some money. Plus they have a $5 off coupon on the back of the Fry' ...

Has anyone else noticed that ever since they invented "Windows" keyboards, your cat can screw up your computer in all sorts of strange and wonderful ways? In the old days, the worst thing that Rocky Rhodes could do by strolling across my keyboard was to reboot my computer, and that took some doing (stepping on control, alt, delete at the same time). Now, Rocky can make my screen disappear, mute my headphone, etc. because Windows keyboards have all these extra function keys. Heck, for all ...

Any pet lover got some advice for me? I got a boxer pup when she was 10 weeks old and we have cats. She never really paid much attention to the cats. Well, now all of a sudden at 7 months old, she seriously tries to KILL the cats! She attacks them and will not stop, I have to restrain her and hold her and she STILL tries to get to them. I love her and don't want to have to get rid of her, but the cats are my kids' cats and they love their cats as well. &nb ...

Thread below was definitely best ever. I had forgotten about my drooling baby. She passed away December 2012 when she was 18 1/2 years old. After reading the post below, I remembered the day I woke up when she was 9 years old, she was sleeping on my chest, and there was not a puddle on my chest. So she learned to swallow when she was 9. I used to have kleenex boxes all over the house, and when I would pass her off to someone I would hand them a kleenex. Also u ...

Ok, maybe not shaving my cat but here is the rundown. I have 4 cats, 2 with extremely long furry coats and they shed so much that I am almost drowning in fur. Just kidding about this but it is a lot that my hubby tells me to use the commercial vacuum we have to get it up. I did have a company that would shave the cats down about once a year but now they do not have groomers there any longer. Some places will shave but they require for your cats to have shots including rabies and from what I r ...

My ole guy is 17. He is fine during the day, but when I go to work at night, he cries and cries and seems so needy. I have 2 desks together, he sits on one at my left arm and keeps grabbing me so I cannot work, until he finally gets to sleep. I know cats are nocturnal, but I thought they were supposed to sleep something like 20 hrs a day, especially older ones. ...

Soon I will be working 3 jobs, and my 2 house kitties are already bored (they can't stand each other so don't play together, etc.). They already have a TON of toys (both interactive and not) as well as a tall cat tree and multiple scratching posts, but I need something else to help alleviate their boredom. Artificial aquarium? Videos of birds, fish, etc.? Your ideas would be most appreciated. Thanks. ...

We've been taking care of a feral cat for 2 years. She finally trusts us enough that we can pet her. She surprised us with 4 kittens 9 weeks ago. They won't let us touch them yet, but they were getting closer to us, within inches, this past week. There are 4. My favorite is the deep dark gray runt. He/she is the only one we haven't been able to get near and is so timid. He/she wouldn't even play with the other kittens that much, just sit and watch.This morning when we went ou ...

Besides taking the vacuum cleaner and sucking these brats up in the cleaner, how can I do this. Every morning bright and early, around 6 or so, they stand outside my bedroom door and meow for their breakfast. I have tried sitting out food late of a night so maybe that will carry them over until I want to get up and it is not 6 in the morning. I do not start my work day until noon so I try to sleep until 8 or so because I watch TV so late of a night. The nights my husband is home there is no prob ...

We recently had new carpeting put in. We have 6 inside cats, none ever sprayed in the house until now, and now they all are. They just back up to a wall and/or a cabinet and let go. This is not a bladder infection problem, just an attitude problem from what I am reading. Has anyone had any luck in reversing this type of behavior? I am using "guaranteed" sprays to clean and discourage them but it is still happening. They do still use their litter boxes somewhat, but not as much as usual. Thanks ...

This is funny and wanted to share. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=TyXJ1sAQtaY ...
