If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Mine hasn't either - I'm not even popular enough to be getting the DM virus that's going around. Oh well.

Always Anti-fascist!

Their whole world view resists dissension. Also, this cool new logic thing popular with draft-dodging peace freaks such as ourselves.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

I'm amazed at the ability of the Bushies in their attempts to whitewash the past eight years. John Yoo and John Bolton have an op-ed in the NYT stating (get this!) that the president should have less authority and discretion when it comes to international affairs. For those two to be saying that is the ultimate in chutzpah!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

But the utter defensiveness over Bush's turd of a presidency never ceases to baffle my ass.

Isn't this mostly the "dead-enders" who still think Bush is/was doing a good job?

Yoo and John Bolton have an op-ed in the NYT stating (get this!) that the president should have less authority and discretion when it comes to international affairs.

Makes sense. They just forgot to add the "...when a Democrat is president" part.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Mine hasn't either

Me neither! Unpopular twitterers unite!

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

In general higher protein and less carbohydrates is better for cats. they are carnivores. However, higher fiber is also good. Mostly, though it is just good for them to get lots of water and not gain to much weight. keeps the kidneys working and diabetes prevention. And if you are talking kittens - you have a pretty good chance they will eat what you give them.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Perkins the cat actually won't, He throws up most of the brands I've tried from the supermarket, but refuses to eat any Science diet and most of the Iams I've tried.

He likes Trader Joes though, and most of them don't make him throw up.

“Not dead yet!”

We give Jack the Purina One Naturals.

But then again, Jack will eat anything, including power cords, so clearly, not a discriminating palate.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Actually, it was someone that went to my high school on Facebook. I really need to unfriend some of those people. I specifically state in my info that I am a bed-wetting liberal crybaby and yet, they still get offended when they read something in my status that reflects my political views.

Ann, that's a ferret.

But cats in kidney failure are supposed to have lower protein diets. Because protein is tough on the kidneys.

Yes, Teddy was on one of those for a while. We still have a few cans left.
