My cats are wonderful "nurse" cats when I am afflicted - they take turns snuggling with me until I am well enough to feed them!

Off to snooze some more.

Gosh - get well real soon - and fast ...

Currently discovering that you can 'ignore' a moderator or a whole slew of moderators just as easily through the 'ignore user list' as you would any non-greener. Now that will come in handy.

Oh yes indeed. Just because they're in green, doesn't mean they're not mean. And also it's a good idea for people like me who are pitbulls when it comes to certain topics. Keeps me out of trouble when I can't see the raw meat dangled in front of my face.

I cannot believe you are trouble in any shape or form ....

Let's say I'm always one sentence away from profanity and never much more than a paragraph away from an insult.

When it comes to copyright, censorship and war then I'd need an army to hold my tongue for me.

GeoffC · 04-17-2010, 11:42 AM

would that be the jail sentence !

moejoe and I are both refugees from the copyright wars, we try and manage our wounds as best we can, we have met the enemy and we is us, brothers on opposites sides, but brothers never-the-less.

Moejoe! Bro!

Still very photophobic.

Cats are great nurses. Sammy cat spent the day snoozing on my lap purring her little heart out. Very comforting. Spot accompanied me into the bathroom every time I had to throw up. And Goldie stayed on the arm of the recliner all today - within easy petting reach. All were rewarded liberally in their food bowls!

Be careful they don't cuddle up too close. You will only have 4 or 5 hours!

OMG - will having 3 cats cut my time by 2/3? I'm doomed!!

Seriously, cats are very attuned to death. In my experience, both of my late cats seemed to know their end was near and became very "needy" and demanding of affection, and followed me around more closely than usual right before they died. Who knows - maybe it can operate in the opposite direction?

Now I am worried. Mr M was very lovey last night.

But the problem was that MOTH left 3 cotton buds(the ones with plastic sticks) on the floor for 5 minutes. When he went to pick them up, all that was left were two little chewed up strips of plastic. Not even enough to make up one cotton bud.

We didn't even see the cat go near them. Now I am worried they are in his gullet.

My Sammy cat eats anything plastic, cellophane, tape, sticky, or rubbery. I have to be constantly on the look-out to make sure ALL trash gets into the waste basket under the sink that has been child-lock proofed to keep her out. It's a battle, and I'm continually finding interesting objects in the litter box. Fortunately, most seem to travel through.

If the buds were well chewed, you probably won't have any problems. It's the stringy things that cause the most problems.

Yes like the lost piece of dental floss that did not make it all the way into the bin. Someone has a knack of dragging things out. But I was quick to catch that time. Mostly due to the funny noises he was making.
