A candle in the wind

Friday, September 28th, 2007

The tiny, flea-ridden orange ball of fluff was placed in my hands , As I held the kitten fleas jumped on my arms, evidence of someone’s neglect and/or ignorance. We shared an instant connection, her and I. She reached out with one of her polydactyl paws and tapped my arm. I sensed her message was […]

Prowler has passed. Her pain has ended, now ours begins. I will miss you my orange slice of purrsonality. Thank you for brightening our lives.

The vet is puzzled (so what […]

Drinkwell Pet Fountain

Monday, September 24th, 2007

My Drinkwell Pet Fountain gave up the ghost this morning. The cats love this pet fountain, and it performed for years faithfully. But today, the motor just burned out it gave two feeble sounds and quit. I now need to find another one.
Prowler isn’t doing well. She is back to just dribbling urine again. I […]

Prowler is hanging in there
