Daisy is slowly integrating into the household. She holds some of the other cats at bay by growling. She’s become intrigued by Tarzan. Tarzan, of course, mostly ignores her. She has tried to play with Rossie, and Rossie steps away and looks at her as if to say, “Please!” Daphne … Continue reading →
Week 4 was a leisurely part of the trip. We rode the California Zephyr from Reno to Chicago. Once in Chicago, we rented a car and drove to Wisconsin to spend a few days with my mom and dad. They are doing well. Our visit with them was probably the … Continue reading →
Ajax is guest posting this week, sharing his story of unexpected solitude. I’m not going to say how it happened. Suffice it to say sometimes I follow Dad, and this time I did. Mom and Dad were gone to two and a half days, and I found myself in an … Continue reading →

I have a couple damaged carriers, … Continue reading →

Other than our sad news about Nick earlier in the week, the cats’ lives have been quiet. At one time this week, we had four cats lounging on the tower at the same time. I think that’s a first. Rossie was in the bottom “bunk.” Lady was in the middle … Continue reading →
This morning the risk with outside cats became a reality for our household. As near as I can pinpoint it, an hour and a half ago, Nick was running across the street toward the house and got hit by a car. He was killed instantly. At 9:40 this morning, Mr. … Continue reading →
