One cat is company. Two cats are a conspiracy. Three cats is an attempted takeover. Four or more cats is a complete coup!

5 GOOD REASONS FOR HAVING YOUR CAT NEUTERED

DID YOU KNOW...

Images brought to you by

'The smallest feline is a masterpiece.' Leonardo da Vinci

'Dogs come when called. Cats take a message and get back to you.'

'Of course, every cat is really the most beautiful woman in the room.' Edward Verrall Luca, essayist

 

A morning kiss, a discreet
  touch of his nose landing
  somewhere on the middle
  of my face.
  Because his long white
  whiskers tickled,
  I began every day laughing.

'Dogs have owners. Cats have staff.'

'In the middle of a world that has always been a bit mad, the cat walks with confidence.'

'Cats make one of the most satisfying sounds in the world: they purr ... A purring cat is a form of high praise, like a gold star on a test paper. It is reinforcement of something we would all like to believe about ourselves - that we are nice.' - Roger A Caras

"Of all the [cat] toys available, none is better designed than the owner himself. A large multipurpose plaything, its parts can be made to move in almost any direction. It comes completely assembled, and it makes a noise when you jump on it." -- Stephen Baker

PHONE FETISH

by Lady Cat, Colorado, (US)

Every Cat is Unique

Of that there is No Doubt

Each with their own Personality

To say what they're about!

 

After I lost my beloved Sweetums having shared Purrs and Love for 19 years ~ My Heart Shattered and part of me Died as She left me ~

I heard her last Purrs and final Heartbeats as my own heart was breaking. That was on Halloween 2007.

I considered having NO more Cats! Just me and my Pomeranian & Arabian horse. But as Friends said to me... 'Cat, Can you imagine a home with no Meows?' I knew they were right but the idea of another Cat in my arms was an idea that hurt too much ...

December 13th: Phone call from Persian Breeder (#13 = My Fave Number!)

She said she had a litter of 3 Black Male, Black Female (sold) and......

A BLACK SMOKE FEMALE  (I did NOT want a Male!)

Black Smoke has been my favorite but I never was lucky enough to breed one or buy one...

When she told me how high up in the mountains she lived, far from me... My heart sank because I did not want to drive that far and that high up....

She then said:

'I have NO problem bringing her to Boulder!'

December 16th...

AshAvAri Arrived!

AshAvAri is a STAR Name

(My own & a REAL STAR in our Galaxy, Named for me when a friend bought a star from the Cheon org...)

Her full name is: AshAvAri Ashanti of Atlantis. A lot to live up to! And....she has! At 4 months old she WON an online Cat Beauty Contest over hundreds of entries! I was shocked!

She is a pure Extrovert - Brave - Bold! NO fear resides in her at all! She meets & greets all Visitors!

She adored the Pomeranian and would jump all over Cowboy, but he wanted NO part of that!  Only has Paws for Me

I soon noticed her ‘Oddity!' SHE HAS A PHONE FETISH!

As soon as I take the Phone from the Cradle and place it on the bed as I watch TV she immediately jumps up and pulls it to her, covets it,  and goes to sleep ON it!

At times I can hear her Stomach Ringing and I have to gently pull it out from under her.....

IF she cannot have the phone her next object of love is THE REMOTE. I call this a Plastica--Mania!

She has another odd habit that NO other Cat in my life has ever had - SHE IS A LICKER!

She will Lick (Groom?) on my hand up to the shoulder IF I do not stop her! Non Stop!

She will lick my nose if I lower my head near her face....

I know that Dogs lick on their person

But... a CAT?

Would enjoy hearing from anyone who relates to any part of this story.

A Cat's Prayer'

Lead me down all the right paths,
Keep me from fleas, bees, and baths.
Let me in should it storm,
Keep me safe, fed, and warm.

Let the sun shine where I lay,
Keep me young so I may play.
And most of all ...
Bless the people I adore,
And guard me from the dog next door.

Lisa Malone

 

PRAISE FOR THE OCTOBER 2005 MEWSLETTER Thank you very much for another wonderful Mewsletter.  I look forward to it each month, and this month was especially fine.  There is enough in it to be able to read at leisure over several days, which sets it apart from many more compact sites, which are finished in a few minutes.  Your Mewsletter is more of a digest, which I can go back to for something new over and over again.  I appreciate very much the work that you put into it, and the contributions of all your feline staff.  Thanks to Ricky, I may even take up yoga. 

All the best from rural Belgium, Jared Kline
