true. I have had them run off for several days, then show up hungry.

Cats are usually good at finding home, once they want too.

nice! can't wait to find out what is being shipped...

pooflady wrote:Okay, I have to ask, what was it about February that you couldn't see each other?

It was just a bad month with work schedules for both of us. We could just never make it happen.

I guess no matter what others go through it always seems worse when it is you going through it. I always took comfort in the fact that others had faced adversity due to long distance relationships and made it work. When I was sitting in the US Embassy in Montreal for the final interview with the consulate and o.k. to move to the US ( I mean everything depended on the 5 minute interview) and marry Mrs. Ice I was with about 300 others in that room who had gone through exactly what I had. I took strange comfort in that.

I understand why he went out the window, he had be checking out windows for the entire year, but why leave?

Because it is a cat.
Odds are it didn't wander too far and will be back.

errr...last post?

Hoo boy! Is Scratchy male or female?

Been up too long, see you alll tomorrow.

Put some flea and tic stuff on him and fed him. He is now ignoring us!
At least if he gets out again, we know he can find the house.

YAY!!!!! So glad the kitty came home.


and...



we told ya!

dontwantaname wrote:Glad the bell didn't fall off. He know damn well how to walk and not make it make a sound, but he had it making noise.
Now he is meowing. I don't know why.

He is telling you all about his adventure!

Flip him over on a white towel, and pet his tummy fur the wrong way. Fleas will hop off and you can see them easily, treat.

Glad he came back! I worry about my cats, do my best not to let them outside.


I'm tired...night all.

Woo-Hoo! So happy for you. You'll sleep better tonight.

Edit: Did you notice, she called him Rusty and not "the dog"?

I'm glad he's home dname.

It would have been my fault.

before he could get lymes.

The lymes would probably go well with that tequila he probably had while he was out catting around....

or at least a celebratory drink.

Yes that is a shame, she's earned it!

After a jog? umm ok.

Of all the things I miss by having kids, the mattress in the living room and living from that spot is one of the biggest. Orc and I were both excited when that was the favorite memory in the movie version of The Curious Case of Benjamin Button which we finally got around to watching. It's not really anything like the short story at all.
