Cat Ladies dying from stress, and asthma maybe,
but litter, suicide from a virus?

this story is depressing,
oh a PARASITE, hmmmm and my cats sleep ON my pillow and bed.

Time for more research.

LOL thank you SUE,
Before I owned cats, I detested going to a sis in laws for lunch.
Cats were on the tables, and the counters cat hair all over, gross.

My brother and sis in law could decipher the cats expressions and body language.

(i thought they were both crazy!)

Now that I am owned by cats, I understand, they DO have distinct personalities,

What amazed me was that , they can pick up on our moods,
and will gather round to offer compassion,
or run like hell if they sense a bad mood,

Scooping, was not my favorite chore, but, it beats walking them everyday.

I still love my doggy friends, now THEY are EASY to read.

Love you Sue,

Lynn xoxox

Love my cat....will get a pup.....but one step at a time....this adjustment disorder is a pain.

The cat got stuck in the neighbours roller door mechanism and he wouldnt budge....I was shattered......then after a few hours the neighbour had got him out.....I just cried.
He does go outside but like a gentleman uses the kitty litter BEFORE he goes outside.....little bugger.

You must own a kitty litter factory...lol

interesting fact: the strong ammonia smell in cat urine- when accumulated to high concentrations and not enough fresh air- can actually contribute to schizophrenia....http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toxoplasmosis scary....

Thats amazing Nadia...I love the smell of perming lotion...but not cats urine...my boy sleeps with me too Lynn..so does the pup..one sleeps next to my chest and the other in the crook of my knees so I am pinned down.

I think animal lovers are just a more sensitive emotional breed...perhaps we know what its like to be defenceless....I may be strange but I would never see an animal in distress or hungry..

Id have more animals but the toilet training is a bugger and then there is food and they havevto be up to date with injections so if need be they can go into boarding.

Love crazy cat ladies....yay
