That's the difference between lurkers and newbies.
The lurkers have seen this before.
It's true and I'm loving it.
Waves to fellow lurker Maggie!
Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

Our wings are not tired.
It is going to be very sad to say goodbye to this thread.
Hi Maggie!

Hi Maggie! Loving the kitteh tales. I can't have cats because I live in a rented place (and the other half is a dog person), so I have hamsters as substitute cats. They're not quite as much fun (although my current teeny dwarf hamster runs so fast in her wheel that she regularly falls out, and then gets back in and repeats the process again and again. All evening, we hear "brrrr BUMP.... brrrrrrrr BUMP...... brrrrrrrrrrrrrrr BUMP...")

All is well that ends in pizza.
Sounds like that Hamster needs a training wheel.
Or maybe she just likes the flinging.

So this thread turns into a pumpkin on my birthday. Talk about an anti-present.
I hope we end this thread by saying delurkers are welcome to delurk any time, they don't have to wait for October...

Always Anti-fascist!
Baseball is good for Olbermann's um, cockles, so even though I still don't grok it, that's good enough right now.(I need a fan to explain stuff someday, preferably not with his depth of knowledge, but basketball is not as subtle.Many times announcers become excited about things that I don't even notice as things.) I do think I understand cats, but maybe that's what they want you think.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
Welcome, Maggie! Jings, that's an impressively low ID number thingummy!
Man, this thread was a GREAT idea!

Ann, that's a ferret.
I thought dogs were supposed to be the uncritical lovers.
It depends on the cat and the human. It helps to keep in mind what cats want. Food, clean litter box, cozy place to nap, lack of sudden loud noises, attention when and as they (and not you) want it, play opportunities, and you've gone a long way. The tricky part is figuring out the priority each cat places on each of those things.
