We've had those terrible thunder storms and they really frighten little Peaches..... she hides in a closet so I'm careful that a dorr is always open a bit. The storms don't bother Badcat.

Yikes - I have the TV on and the weatherman just said, "Violent storms moving in this afternoon".

Nancy, Peaches goes to the safest place in your condo, she is one smart cat!
Maybe once or twice a year we will have a thunderstorm and our Princess
goes under the bed! Hopefully the violent storms won't do any damage!!

We have to stay out of their way.
In bed I can't move my legs if it will disturb a cat.

Nancy, I have a bad back but I never try to push a cat away! No wonder my back really hurts when
I get up. Suki is the only that growls if I move, the other ones just know I won't lay on them. lol lol

I spent yesterday afternoon in the basement trying to organize, sort, investigate, yadda yadda, the many, many, many boxes of 'stuff' in the basement. Those cats had a ball --- they helped.
I don't know what I'd do without them.

Okay, here goes!

This is China (age 21) sitting ON Catrina (age 11) - these two girls hate eachother and all other cats...

Zinny - my beautiful, 17 year old Siamese, whose best friend is Susie, my foster basset hound mix.

Woohoo, I made it work. Good morning, Nancy!

Thanks! The story on China: she was dropped off at the local humane society this past Christmas eve, because her "family" decided they wanted a kitten instead of an elder stateswoman...the vet tech called me, knowing I have a fondness for the senior animals, and she didn't want this poor old gal to spend the holiday season locked in a cage. I agreed to foster her, but a couple of weeks later I made it permenant. (And no, we did not send a kitten home with those heartless people!) She's doing great.

Erica, What a wonderful person you are! Looks like the cat enjoys sitting on
someone's lap too! China and Zinny do not look old at all! I am glad those
heartless people didn't get a kitten either!! I'm sure China had the best
Christmas ever! God Bless You!!

Thank you, Carol. Yes, China does like to sit on laps, and she's a talker, to boot - when she comes up to find a suitable lap, she likes to discuss her day, and expects you to answer her, as well! Although Siamese cats are known to be talkers, the only time Zinny actually makes his wishes known is when he is sitting by the fridge waiting for someone to put ice cubes in the water dish...

Romeo had his yearly check up yesterday and they called to let me know that he is healthy no parasites or heart worm,Thank God ! He wasn't too keen on the shots or blood work but as always loves the girls in the Vet's office giving kisses to all that came close enough.Our Vet gave him kisses too!We picked a good name for him "Romeo".
