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.
JANET F FAURE |
| '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
Garfield: 28.03.86 - 12.06.06

TECHNICAL PROBLEMS
Lady Cat, Colorado, (US)
When I
first overcame my Techno-Phobia and got Webtv to be online I never dreamed how
it would affect Sweetums! The usual routine of lying on my bed in later
afternoon and evening to watch TV and cuddle with her was suddenly altered!
This
Alteration of Routine was NOT Accepted by Sweetums very well at all!
Her time
was being interfered with due to her 'Human Possession' (Me) who was NOT
devoting the usual time to lying on the bed providing her 'Cuddle-Pillow' (Me).
One morning
I came out to the living room and turned the WebTv ON ~ Nothing Happened! After
trying several more times... I examined the WEBTV Unit!
OMG! Out of
the entire house, Sweetums had chosen to throw up IN the Unit! Short-Circuited
it!
Was it
INTENTIONAL? We will never know! (I suspect it was!)
But one
thing is for sure ~ Mission Accomplished! I could NOT be online that day.
When I
exchanged the unit which was still under Warranty at Sears ~ Trust me...I did
NOT tell them that the Cat threw up in it!
When I
returned home with the new unit I placed it in a different location where I knew
she could NOT get on it at all!
I knew that
our time together was Precious ~ and goes by way too fast ~ so I spent less and
less time online and more and more time cuddling with Sweetums.
I had 19
Love filled years of Purrs. Being a Feline (spirit/soul) myself... Sweetums was
My Feline Soul Sister!
I had some
of her ashes put into a Black and Silver Pendant...to wear close to my heart.
I never
washed her favorite pink rug ... I wanted to keep her essence and smell that was
connected to it ... and I placed it on one end of my water bed.
After
losing her at Halloween 2007 ~ I would often hug that little pink rug ... as the
Tears flowed endlessly.
What cruel
twist of fate is it that our beloved animal companions never outlive us?
Why do the
Heartaches and Pain make us feel as if part of our own Spirit has died?
One answer
may be:
Their
Leaving Opens Another Door For Another New Companion To Love
Is it truly
better to Love and Lose than Never to Have Loved at all?
Listen to
the song THE DANCE by Garth Brooks - it says it all.
I may have
missed the pain
But I would
have had to miss the Dance!
RIP My
Sweet Lady Blue
Our Souls
will unite one day again
Lady Cat,
Boulder, Colorado

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.

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 |
