I lost my 17 y/o calico a coulpe of days after Thanksgiving. She was my day to day companion, sitting on my feet and my foot pedal, head going up and down, up and down, seemingly not bothered at all. Once in a while, she would wake up startled, look at me and meow as if a question of "what did you say"? I would tell her to go back to sleep, nobody said anything and rub the back of her neck. I miss her sooo much. I have other kitties but she was my long-term friend.

@@ what did I miss? lol

How did I miss it?
xx
I miss
Ideal peanut butter bars. Was an oblong peanut butter bar covered with yummy chocolate. Ideal said they discontinued it because the chocolate melted too fast in the heat or just too fast altogether.
What about Space Sticks & Shaka-puddin. Those were things I had growing up that I miss.
I loved Carnation breakfast bars - they were the best.
I miss it up there.
Used to live in Irwin for 12 years.
Go Steelers!!
Who is that, Miss Lily?

Miss Lily sm
A lab mix that was adopted from animal control and the OP said she had all kinds of problems, throwing up, eye infection, itching, etc. So I was wondering if she was doing better.
Miss Lily
I'm so glad she's doing better - poor baby has been through a lot. It sounds like she's already endearing herself to you and your family and perhaps she's realizing she finally has a permanent and good home! Good for you for taking such good care of her !! 
Miss Lily
Miss Lily goes for her spay tomorrow. My cats will be overjoyed to have the house to themselves. lol. Wish her luck!
Miss Lily
Well you sound like a good mom to Miss Lily. I think you are setting a good example for your children as far as what compassion and love can do and Lord knows it is what this world needs more of these days. Let us know how she does after her operation. 
I sure don't miss my periods *LOL*
Have you seen Little Miss Sunshine yet?

never miss a LOST!
We are huge Lost fans at my house! We didn't think the show shed any new light on things though. Just old stuff we already knew. They said John Locke has been trying to sabotage their chance of being rescued from the beginning, but we didn't really see anything until midway through like when he blew up Mikhail's station and then the submarine. Did we miss something else? Anyway, Locke is being so selfish now. Even if everyone else got rescued he could stay on the island by himself, so why is he trying to prevent everyone else's rescue? And we still want to know why Libby was in the institution!
Miss Lily is MORE than enough for me lol
She has dog aggression issues and went after a guide dog the other day. She's getting slowly better but man....I'm a little burned out with it. She absolutely can't ever be off leash outside our yard. Ever. In fact, I have to tighten her collar up a notch so she can't slip out of it when she is leashed.
The other dog, Casey, will be recouping with me until her drains come out and then she will go back to my sister's house.
I won't miss Dr. Melfi!
She's been pointless recently, though I did like the twist this week that her thinking she was enabling Tony all along. As for AJ, he's getting on my nerves, too. I'm siding with Tony's Italian therapy. Just thwap the kid back into shape!
Little Miss Melanoma -- I know somebody like that...
and she's also a total whack job.
The gulls down here are accustomed to being fed. Besides, once you are done with your stale bread eventually they go away. LMM was definitely the psycho in this scenario, Imho. I think it's kind of fun to watch them catch it in mid air.
Miss Manners, you got it going on!
Just irritates me no end reading these no sense of etiquette posts. Pay for anothers honeymoon? Here is 1 person who would not give $. If you can get an invite to someone to try and shake them down for a gift, then get thank you note to the shooken one. Oh, by the way, don’t need the correct grammer police, just spoofing on this board but not about manners- they really never go out of style and same through the years. It is only people who don’t have enough sense to get in out of the rain that makes their owns. Still tacky.
Yes, you did miss a post but why do you
consider bizarre?
Oh, I didn't miss it...
That's exactly what it is. It goes in one ear and out the other with me.
You Miss My Point
You have missed my point and resorted to attacking me personally by telling me I have a miserable heart. Me thinks you project.
My goal was to point out everyone has a different view of the candidates... some rah rah about Clinton - but she is NOT perfect. Some rah rah about Obama - but he is NOT perfect. Some rah rah about McCain, etc, etc.
You brush off her choice to stay (with far more than just infidelity - do some research) as if it was nothing. My point is that SOME people think it something. By the way - I voted for Bill Clinton... and I think he was a pretty decent president in spite of himself...
Put it this way. I WILL vote for H if she gets the nomination. But maybe, just maybe, there are loads of people who feel just as you do about Barack Obama... that if McCain or Clinton win the presidency... it will be a tragic day for this country? We are all passionate about what we hope and want for this country.
There are simply enough of us Independents, Democrats, and Republicans who have had our fill of the Bush and Clinton clans...
Maybe interacing on this board without attacking people personally is still a possibility. Try. I have a great open heart - even for you. I am sure you have one too.
Again - Peace.
Sorry, I did not miss the point..
you did. This man had been in anger management and quit after she moved back in...all of TWO sessions I think. She does not love him, she has no desire sexually, he MAY beat her again, he obviously has not respect.....tell me what point I missed! She needs to listen to herself and own feelings and move on which sounds like she is ready to do and wants to do. If you've been through this, I am sure you would understand then and only then that no therapist, prayer, God, talking it out, honesty, the list goes on and on - is going to get you through this type of situation. Once you have been beat it is a TOTALLY different story...and seeing a therapist or talking about it is not going to make it a fairy ending!!!
I miss the woods.
I haven't been able to get out in the wilderness for a while. I'd love to get my backpack together and take a week-long hike. I feel so strong and capable and ready to get things done when I come back.
I miss Hayseed..... :( -nm
How come she quit this one? I miss her, too. -nm
Did you miss the posts by the
It sounds to me like she did everything right as the OWNER and they still ended up with a dead cat and other potential tragedies. ANY breed (Not just the pit bull, but any breed) with this kind of earned reputation and documented behavior should not be allowed to be bred any longer for any reason in MY opinion. And yes it is that simple. No gray area here as far as I'm concerned.
oooh, I miss the 70's
If only we could vacation there via a time machine...LOL.
I am so sorry for you and your kitty....

Glad to hear your cat is doing better! Something that may be helpful - I had a cat who made it to 17 yearsw of age. Three years before he passed, he was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism. It was difficult to get him to take the medication by mouth, so my vet suggested getting the med made up at a compounding pharmacy. The med was in the form of a paste that went behind his ear, and that ensured he got the med and we didn't have to hassel every day.

My cat died about 2 months ago. She stopped eating, drank a little bit, just stayed in the closet flat out. I couldn't afford to take her to the vet ($75.00 to euthanize) and I could tell that she wasn't in pain. She purred and let me pat her once in a while, but for the most part she stayed in the closet. She finally crawled to the back of the closet and died, I hope peacefully. I miss her. I want another cat (have had them all my life) but will not get one unless/until I have the money to properly take care of her when necessary. Last July she had several rotten teeth. The vet removed all but 5 of her teeth ($600.00) which I am still paying out. She was about 14-15, so up in years. I feel for you. My gut feeling, though, is to euthanize her before it's a weekend and you can't do anything and she's in pain. You're only prolonging the inevitable, IMO. Take care.
My kitty
Thank you to everyone who helped me through these last couple of weeks with my beautiful cat with bone cancer. We finally put her to sleep yesterday and it was very difficult for us but for her it was very quick and nontraumatic. The hardest part for her was the ride down to the vet's because she hates/hated that part. We then took her to the cremation place and should have her ashes back within a week. I didn't write until now because my heart is still very sad. I still haven't picked up her "things" around the house but will probably try to do that tonight or I may only be able to do a couple of things at a time, but that's okay.
I wrote about our milk prices here and it got me thinking how we probably won't have to buy as much milk now or the whole roasted chickens at Costco we used to buy for her. She would share some with us but it was really Mochi's chicken. She would come running in from outside whenever we cooked chicken too. Plus she would do what we called "praying to the refrigerator God" for something good to eat, she would sit in front of the refrigerator doors and just stare at it or sometimes rub up against it until we opened it up and found something in there for her.
We hadn't been able to let her outside for a month or so so that she could warm herself in the sun, so I think she is very happily sunning herself right now, in no pain.
So sorry about your kitty...
Sounds like you did all you could and provided a wonderful home.
My new kitty-cat's name is - sm
CHARLOTTE! :)
The weekend passed with less hissing & more acceptance by my other cat. I found that feeding them at the same time (one eats on the floor, the other up on the kitchen table) seems to make them relax around each other. Charlotte sleeps in bed with me with her head on my arm, and occasionally communicates with either a little 'silent meow' or else her signature 'quacking' sound. If I say 'quack-quack' to her, she says it back. ;)
Kitty
We have a laser pointer that we play with them with. They go crazy over it.
Also, I have a Roomba vacuum....oh my Lord...worth the money just for the comic relief they provide.
My kitty
I'm so sorry about your baby My cat was 16 years old and I believe she had a stroke. She has been pretty sick getting very skinny and one night she had her head tilted to the side and she couldn't move it. I don't know for sure but I think she suffered a stroke. Unfortuately, I didn't have any say in the matter. She passed away that night in March. It's still so hard for me to talk about. I miss her every day. I'll send prayers to you and your cat that she doesn't suffer and you'll know when it's time I'm sure.
kitty
If you feel that strongly you should go get him. You could take him to a shelter or just keep him. I'm sure you probably could find a home for him yourself if you needed to.
My kitty... see pic hopefully
This is Jory Jack Anthony SkippyJon Jones. :)
kitty uti
Hi - I totally understand your problem. My kitty has had severel UTIs and the doc put her on amoxicillin. It did work for her, but he also prescribed Urinary-SO, which is a special diet to keep the kidneys in good health. It's kind of pricey, but worth it so far. You can't buy it over the counter and have to buy it from your veterinarian. Hope this helps. As all us girls know, UTIs are VERY painful.
kitty ?
Always happy to see a cat lover....the ruler of my house, my 8yo female, occasionally does this. Don't know why. She has always used the litter box since day #1. My little boy is 4y/o and he will do the same thing, may be a copy cat, Boo, Hiss...anyway,I've never figured out why they do this. No pattern, not mad, no fights. Just happens occasionally. If you figure out why, other than just being cats and knowing they can do it, pls let me know.
You are right! I did miss that part! My apologies!
Thank you for pointing that out to me.
Update on Miss Lily
Just lost a BIG long post. grr.
Long story short, she has kennel cough, eye infections, skin infection and hasn't been spayed. She's on 3 pills and eye ointment and we are supposed to keep her pretty confined to the house with nothing to excite her for the next 2 weeks. No going for walks, playing fetch, nada. Keep your fingers crossed that all the meds work so she can finally live like a normal pup.
Could we have an update on Miss Lily?
I hope she's feeling a lot better by now. 
No, didn't miss your point
I didn't miss your point. I'm just saying it's ridiculous for people to be so worried about what other people do and someone else's "morals." I personally don't care if another woman or man has had sex with 100 different people if that's what they want to do and that's what right for them, and neither should anyone else. It's not like other woman are using your body to do the deed with someone, so what do you care?
As far as men go, a lot don't much care in this day and age how many partners their girlfriend or wife have had. In fact, I know a few men who prefer it if their significant other is more experienced, know what they want, etc. Besides, most men are way worse than women are in that department as far as number of partners. Unfortunately, some people are still holding up the double standard that woman are easy if they sleep with multiple men and men are studs if they do it.
A lot of people (mostly other women) have forgotten that women have equal rights and can do anything they want with their own bodies and don't have to be ashamed of such. It's a free country after all, but for some reason people are still finding sex taboo or bad (or anything related to pleasure or feeling good in anyway for that matter). It might not be right for you, and no one is telling you that you have to do it, but if it works for someone else, what's so wrong with that?
How could you not? You might miss out on your true love.

Miss Lily broke my toe.
So my lovely dog Miss Lily, who can't be more than 6 inches from me at all times, stepped on the back of my pajamas when we were walking down the stairs and I fell down a few of them. I broke my toe, just a hairline fracture, and it HURTS! That'll teach me to wear pajamas that are remotely baggy lol.
*This concludes my pity party* 
Oh - I miss Fort Lauderdale (sm)
I went down there from PA in my 20s to stay with my aunt and uncle. I was there for 3 years and loved it so much. It would have been perfect if my entire family would have followed me down. I was homesick and flying home to visit so much that it was costing me a fortune. So, I came home. I miss the beach and just the smell. Darn, now I'm going to be dwelling on this all day! I need to go back for a vacation.
Miss Lily has colitis.
*silent screaming* Miss Lily (my dog for those who don't know) now has a disgusting case of colitis (we hope). She spent all day at the vet on antiemetics and I think I'm bringing her back in the morning for some IV fluids if she won't drink something soon. She has bloody diarrhea and vomiting and is just miserable. This poor dog just can't catch a break.
Poor Miss Lily!!
Your poor pup has really been through the ringer with health issues. I hope she gets better soon for ALL your sakes! Keep us posted, sending prayers . . . .
I will really miss the Gilmore Girls...
I guess I can watch the rest of American Idol, now. But it's just not the same.
I cried all through it, I'll miss it
:(
Mexico is jealous of Miss USA
