Beautiful hair - but it kinda reminds me of My Pretty Pony dontcha think? Besides, the shampoo $$ would put me in the poor house!
If this woman ever declined a date because she had to wash her hair, we wouldn't see her for a month! :rotfxko

My BIG WHINE TODAY is that I lost me 3 paragraph post this AM, SR just quit on me!!
same thing happened from my work server...I *know* it's not on my end, I'm running off T-3 line....but slow-poke SR keeps timing out.
I hope everyone is doing well.....I had great postings this AM, but NOW i've forgotten them? i did have to chop some fur off of Fandy's tail, it had remnants of litterbox glued in and I don't deal with THAT!
Information on baby-cat "little Ozzy"...has long hair! he is just 3 weeks old. Just like his Uncle Fandy-cat....his brother/sister....(Hannibal and Clarice) are destroying Barb's new couch...(this is the *biological* mother, my friend who sells me the kittens.
I am TIRED!

Sir Raven here is a real wack-a-doodle...like alot of kitties, he likes to drink from the faucet in the tub or from a glass (he refuses to drink from a bowl; it has to be a drinking glass - he must've been in recovery in a former life).
This morning, after drinking from the faucet, he hops into the tub (not unusual for him) and proceeds to chase his tail while in the tub - his little head was be-bopping from one side of the tub to the other...he didn't care...I was on the floor in hysterics.
Boy, he found the right house when he stumbled into my driveway as a stray; it must've been the scent of psychosis that attracted him to me...we were made for each other...

I KNOW I'm feeling better cause I had enough energy to vac and mop the filthy floors! Got the washer fixed in less than ten minutes. Only cost me fifteen dollars for the knob. Yay! Now that the floors are clean it's time for a shower.
The first time I could stand upright long enough to take a shower in the last week... it's about time

Good gravy, I can hardly keep up here.
Zipperman, I remember Juanita, she was before Thelma-Lou and Barney used to sing that awful Juanita song.
Teach, congratulations on the weight loss, that's fantastic and so good for your health. You inspire me to get that last 10 pounds off. And you will look fabulous in a bun, and remember a bun is a good place to store your pencils.
Perfect day here, sunshine and warm breeze. I just can't find a whine anywhere. Workin' on that.

HB, check out my post in Cat Fanciers (social groups forum) with a link to Cats In Sinks. Hilarious.
I have a mental picture of your kitty going in circles in the tub!

my cats prefer to drink out of the shower too...never mind the fresh bowls of water I leave them....if I clean the glass doors with Windex after showering, I have to close everything up tight....i have a new bathroom with that nice rough mini rectangular tile on the floor of the shower...Fandy just loves to roll on it dry to "scratch" his back...
one night I was using the facilities (see Bam, delicacy)...I had that feeling someone was watching me....I looked inside the shower which has a built-in granite seat and THERE THEY WERE....sitting in the shower looking at me.....3 of them, 2 on the seat and one one the floor....(no privacy at my house)....and yes, they unroll the toilet paper for "fun".
my other Main Coon cat Wylie-Coyote (who passed)...used to steal the make-up brushes and dunk them in the water dish...
Least, i loved the Moscow cat circus too....there is another great website called "stuffonmycat.com

Fandy, I have a habit of locking the door now. He (the cat) graduated to opening doors (not just pushing or pulling them open) a few months ago. He loves the kind that have a straight handle instead of a circular knob, because all it takes is a leap. But he is figuring out how to turn the knobs. He has also torn shower curtains too, another reason for locking the door before he can get in there. The playing with tissue is one of his favorites - same with crumpled up packaging or tin foil. It's just like intricate toys vs pots/pans for a baby. The stuff already there (or before it hits garbage/recycling) is what is appealing. Sometimes I wake up to find him and one of these "footballs" next to me - an indication he patiently waited for me to wake up to start another chase for him, or he just likes storing them in the "pride" next to his less adequate cat friend who needs to be coached on hunting (me).
He is half angel, half terror. His latest is jumping up and getting into kitchen cupboards. It would not surprise me if one of these days he suddenly opens a cupboard and appears inside while I am at the sink.

My Toby loved the bathtub too. If I took a bubble bath, he'd hang over the side and whack the bubbles with his paw.
And if I'd pour a bath and leave it, he'd just hop right in and play and then hop out when he was done. Crazy cat, but I sure do miss him.

There is always an empty space after a beloved animal friend dies. I have to reassure myself that in God's Meadow (where they go) everyone is well and young and whole and happy. That's where I want to go when I die - to The Meadow to be with all my departed pets.
No whines today, actually feeling quite a bit better. Even cleaned the house and walked the dogs! If I'm well enough to walk the dogs, I'm well enough.

Bam - how many of my 5 kittens shall I send your way?
Teach - That's some nasty business you're having to deal with. It sounds like you got some sleep, though.
I've been having the same trouble with SR, for the past 2 days.
I enjoy reading about all the kitty exploits!
