ita, you were in my dream last night. And you wanted four sugars in your coffee. Waaaaaay off-topic.
I also had a great place I was living in in Greece. (Hi Raq!)

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Kathy, best of luck. If it is any consolation, Devi still hates Mister Kitty, but no blood. And as for the tortie interloper, the hostility came from the tortie, not my guys, but no blood. Sometime detente is good enough.

I keep thinking that maybe I should feed her more, since she finishes off her evening half cup usually by noon at the latest the next day, leaving her with no food until I get home after 7:00
Kathy, I'm sure she's fine. Honestly, if she's not gobbling the whole thing when you put it down, she's not starving. Lucy pretty much always has food in her bowl (or on the floor around her bowl, really) but she mostly only eats in the morning and at night - the food level is exactly the same when I come home as it was when I left in the morning. A few hours of no food is not going to harm her.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil
She bitches when I get home, and yowls if I make any sidetrips from the front door to the kitchen to feed her immediately, but after eating a bit of her food right away, she's fine. The weekends are fun because she likes to push back the feeding from the 24 hour interval I like to keep it at--when she decides she wants her food and meowing doesn't get it, then she'll jump on top of whatever flat surface is nearest to me and starts pushing things off of said surface. A few minutes of that, and I'm usually scooping food for her (yes, she has me trained very well!).

Kathy, I don't know if you give her wet or dry food, but I'd highly suggest free-feeding of dry. There are recommended amounts on the bags, and just...steel yourself against the whines. I figured out MK gets about 1/2 c/ day, but honestly, I just fill up the bowl when it is empty.
The wet food is a spoonful at shot times, so really, not necessary. But, oh, the whining! You'd think they never eat.
Bottom line: cats manipulate.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
EAT IT! Dinner now, silly.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh, I had an interesting cultural thing earlier -- I went into the deli across the street, and was randomly wandering, so the deli guy was like, "what's up?" I said I wasn't sure what I felt like, and he asked if I wanted sweet or sour.
