If you read my other blog you will know that I want to put more time into blogging and I promised there (as I will promise here) I will update you on the fur-kids lives at least once a week. Lots to talk about. Good and bad. But more later - there is a scary storm brewing out my window and I'd rather not fry my nice laptop!Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07848415546986700318noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1701870754236509488.post-1626830003290717942009-11-23T07:38:00.000-08:002009-11-23T07:51:51.522-08:00An ExperimentHello all!<br />I know, I know, its been a LONG time since I've posted. But now I have something really interesting to post about!<br />We have another stray. LOL. Yes, they just show up. And no I did not write letters to all the strays inviting them to come live with me nor did I pray every night for another cat, "with long hair this time since they are my favorite" as my DH accused. She just showed up, was super friendly, and you all know I am a sucker!<br />So meet the Orphan Cat (OC for short!)<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGQHaDTknDO2xQtxWCR9GO4a5nONr-sKM3sCoBHysvqjuWBW9i1mepkSXI0rvqZI7bn5DRthXHOboNGAfrH0SglJmvmzNnAZifdhIiMhdxDAmvqp62V72HecokkvydamofLHpE0KxzY2JM/s1600/P1040731.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGQHaDTknDO2xQtxWCR9GO4a5nONr-sKM3sCoBHysvqjuWBW9i1mepkSXI0rvqZI7bn5DRthXHOboNGAfrH0SglJmvmzNnAZifdhIiMhdxDAmvqp62V72HecokkvydamofLHpE0KxzY2JM/s400/P1040731.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5407325171535225650" border="0" /></a>She's a beauty, no? The sad part is she has been declawed and left outside to fend for herself with very little means of protecting herself. I am against declawing in the first place. I think with the right training, cats can live in a house and not be destructive with their claws. They just need a place to scratch and consistent behavior modification (in our case, a spray bottle). And as a cat owner, we must have patience. Its a virtue.<br />So back to the experiment! Since I recently got a job (yay!) my first paycheck will be partly spent on getting Miss OC to the vet, tested and vaccinated. Then she will slowly (hopefully) become part of my household. I've had her for a month. We've sent out emails and asked around, but no one is interested in her. Sad.<br />I talked to an AWESOME cat rescue from around my area and they were SUPER nice about giving me advice on breaking OC's outside habit as well as integrating her into my cat family.<br />Here is the experiment part. Three weeks of not letting her go out. Cold turkey. With the aid of some herbal drops. I'll let you know how it goes.<br />Just curious, has anyone used any of the calming agents sold at Foster and Smith or another vet supply? Has anyone tried Comfort Zone? I'm going to need some of these tools when we begin Operation Integration in a week or two. Where are the best prices? What are the best products? What have you had success with?<br />Thanks for your help!Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07848415546986700318noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1701870754236509488.post-24790651141478095742009-09-04T11:34:00.001-07:002009-09-04T11:45:40.031-07:00Buttercup's Flowers<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhccHRSrswy3saiv5HLU78gVCMCNRvGsNJbYqrE7-hbevMHWGAUC1UBDOcsng2k9cGgsXtAU0kglIBKjzQQWtpQkavsHFGs3NnA6_N6HubB8kD9p88j06QmTqYPmppCT99jbmKGvEaonZ1s/s1600-h/P1040670.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhccHRSrswy3saiv5HLU78gVCMCNRvGsNJbYqrE7-hbevMHWGAUC1UBDOcsng2k9cGgsXtAU0kglIBKjzQQWtpQkavsHFGs3NnA6_N6HubB8kD9p88j06QmTqYPmppCT99jbmKGvEaonZ1s/s400/P1040670.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5377682753641105650" border="0" /></a>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07848415546986700318noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1701870754236509488.post-34190952611136708312009-08-26T09:00:00.000-07:002009-08-26T09:06:39.639-07:00Baby Pictures<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2XCBiYh3iMiUUuTvXdwS6dxhqrflIefw5cK21T4Cn3SCMfFJbknoGli4mK1xQ66gizQoU5VW5iVa0fTxHh82xn_Xly5VHr_RKImdKSolcGnuijMMCT9kuqyZFrSimPPWCEYhBb6HG_C-l/s1600-h/sleepyboy.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2XCBiYh3iMiUUuTvXdwS6dxhqrflIefw5cK21T4Cn3SCMfFJbknoGli4mK1xQ66gizQoU5VW5iVa0fTxHh82xn_Xly5VHr_RKImdKSolcGnuijMMCT9kuqyZFrSimPPWCEYhBb6HG_C-l/s400/sleepyboy.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5374304483208345938" border="0" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTKucJiitJ2IEceuLwNoEhYu4kyN0Jq-5VzdyjUox_YHxJyHDf3w-kRHTx2QDMOcPLF5OlcrjIE1WQtEN69KYp-vOgq2vs5DFGVDD_h_Brq3sSWgmBVXpQYspbERV2jGb2UsyKqAWDQUjz/s1600-h/Babyboy.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTKucJiitJ2IEceuLwNoEhYu4kyN0Jq-5VzdyjUox_YHxJyHDf3w-kRHTx2QDMOcPLF5OlcrjIE1WQtEN69KYp-vOgq2vs5DFGVDD_h_Brq3sSWgmBVXpQYspbERV2jGb2UsyKqAWDQUjz/s400/Babyboy.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5374304151639658930" border="0" /></a>Oscar, when we brought him home from Wal-Mart at 6 weeks old.

I had heard of them before, since I tend to frequent <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">PetFinder</span> and look at all the animals that need homes, just in case I see that perfect dog for me. They were at our local <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">PetsMart</span> a few weeks ago with the cutest animals. One was a 5 month old male Beagle and the other was a one year old <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">cocker</span> spaniel. They also had two adorable orange tabby kittens (and you know how I am a sucker for orange kitties!). This shelter is proof that there you can find particular "breeds". They always have a wide variety and sizes of cats and dogs needing homes. <br />Here is what they say about their shelter:<p style="line-height: 150%;" align="center"><i><b><span style="color:#000080;"> <span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:85%;">Orphans of the Storm, Inc. has been matching stray and unwanted pets with new families since 1969.

I'm there now. So here goes:<br /><br />I have 4 cats. They poop. A lot. I have 4 litter boxes, strategically placed downstairs so that if they all have to "go" at the same time, they can.<br />One of these boxes was donated by my parents. It is the Littermaid self-scooping litter box. Here is why they donated it to me: <a href="http://lifewith4purrs.blogspot.com/2009/04/uncle-sam.html">SAM</a>. He is large like a horse and therefore poops like one. The motor in this litter box had to work SO HARD to scoop Sam's stuff that it would actually fling it out onto the floor, where Sam would resume "burying" it in the carpet. I know, funny, right? Oh and I will add that the reason the litter box was upstairs is because Sam was afraid of the basement (where all the litterboxes are). And now you know why his nick-name is Baby Huey.<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi7WoO9B0A8whmciGQymE6Lhfd3CpjnHurJ4WehstJV_Zn9FlezAetA-Nusc8xx__GmAK35Xaz6QsbYR83g6OsVM9GuKgmhhH-hsVj6VQ2JKW6NRNbdweRaNWAEy4Q5RXI6MjZVdSaG-ZZs/s1600-h/babyhuey.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 125px; height: 121px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi7WoO9B0A8whmciGQymE6Lhfd3CpjnHurJ4WehstJV_Zn9FlezAetA-Nusc8xx__GmAK35Xaz6QsbYR83g6OsVM9GuKgmhhH-hsVj6VQ2JKW6NRNbdweRaNWAEy4Q5RXI6MjZVdSaG-ZZs/s200/babyhuey.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5329791001013300562" border="0" /></a>So I have been enjoying the heck outta this litter box. It never flinged poop at my house! Whenl we returned from our cruise, Someone, and I'm not accusing any individual for this may have been a group effort (but I think it was Oscar), pooed SO much on the scooping mechanism that it became plastered in place and the motor burned up. What posseses a cat to poo on the side of something? How is that even possible?<br />So alas, it was with great sadness that I threw out the unfixable scooper and bought a new box (at 20% off!). And the side pooing has not stopped! In fact, last week someone left a trail from in the box, on the lip of the opening, and then one right in front. What the crap, cats?!?<br />*sigh*Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07848415546986700318noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1701870754236509488.post-17674220119027586922009-04-21T11:45:00.000-07:002009-04-23T13:33:14.963-07:00Featured ShelterI consider all of my cats to be "rescued" in one way or another though only two of them were officially adopted through a shelter. There are so many cats and dogs out there that need awesome people to give them what they deserve: a forever home. In an effort to help out, since I am no longer able to foster, I would like to feature a shelter every week or so, as well as a few of their adoptable animals. If you have a shelter or animal you would like to see featured, just contact me and let me know. I'd be glad to do a post.<br /><br />So the first featured shelter I'd like to introduce is <a href="http://animalprotectors.net/">Animal Protectors of Allegheny Valley</a>. They are located in New Kensington, Pennsylvania and they are a small no-kill shelter. I fostered several litters of kittens from APAV and the volunteers there are wonderful.<br />Here are some cuties in need of a home.

Yet, black cats are the least likely to be adopted. Who knows why. It certainly makes no sense in Marissa's case! She is friendly, affectionate, and playful, and would fit in well in any pet-loving household. Marissa is getting tired of living at the shelter, and needs to be adopted soon.<br /><br />Meet Letterman: Male - Solid Grey – 2 yrs.- Neutered<br />This boy is a real comedian, just like his namesake! He sleeps on his back like a dog, and his leg even shakes when he dreams. He also loves to be petted, and rolls around in comical way. He arrived at the shelter completely non-plussed, which is very unusual for a cat. With his easy-going, roll-with-the punches attitude, he would fit into most any pet-loving home.<br /><br /><table align="center"><tbody><tr><td><a href="http://animalprotectors.net/Cats/Letterman/Letterman%201.JPG" target="_blank"><img src="http://animalprotectors.net/Cats/Letterman/thumbs/Letterman%201.JPG" /></a></td></tr></tbody></table><br /></div><br />Something interesting about APAV is they are known as Pit Bull alley. Why they get so many stray Pitt Bulls is beyond me, but in any case they do. These dogs get a bad rap when with the proper homes and owners they are perfect little angels. I have a friend with a pitt mix and she is a sweetie!<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;">Hector is a one and a half year old male pit bull mix.<br /><br />Volunteer Comments:<br />When Hector first came into the shelter, I thought he was scared because he was so quiet and didn't bark, jump, and go crazy like his kennel mates to be let out. But that is just him. He is very calm, pretty quiet, and sometimes a little bit shy, but he is very loving and just wants love and attention. He loves his walks, and loves to be petted and get love. He also likes to sit on the picnic table and give kisses. I think anyone would be lucky to adopt him; he will make a great pet.<br /><br />Great dog. Very friendly. I believe he knows sit and paw (not positive though). Loves to give kisses! I would love to have him as my own.<br /></div><br /><br /><table align="center"><tbody><tr><td><a href="http://animalprotectors.net/Dogs/Hector/Hector.JPG" target="_blank"><img src="http://animalprotectors.net/Dogs/Hector/thumbs/Hector.JPG" /></a></td> <td><a href="http://animalprotectors.net/Dogs/Hector/Hector1.JPG" target="_blank"><img src="http://animalprotectors.net/Dogs/Hector/thumbs/Hector1.JPG" /></a></td> </tr><tr><td><a href="http://animalprotectors.net/Dogs/Hector/Hector2.JPG" target="_blank"><img src="http://animalprotectors.net/Dogs/Hector/thumbs/Hector2.JPG" /></a></td> <td><a href="http://animalprotectors.net/Dogs/Hector/Hector3.JPG" target="_blank"><img src="http://animalprotectors.net/Dogs/Hector/thumbs/Hector3.JPG" /></a></td> </tr><tr><td><a href="http://animalprotectors.net/Dogs/Hector/Hector5.JPG" target="_blank"><img src="http://animalprotectors.net/Dogs/Hector/thumbs/Hector5.JPG" /></a></td> <td><a href="http://animalprotectors.net/Dogs/Hector/Hector6.JPG" target="_blank"><img src="http://animalprotectors.net/Dogs/Hector/thumbs/Hector6.JPG" /></a></td></tr></tbody></table><br /><div style="text-align: center;">Roper is a two and a half-year-old male pit bull mix. Roper and a companion, Allie, were abandoned on a wintry day, tied to a post in an Alley. Roper is much more outgoing than Allie with a very bouncy and energetic personality. This adult male would benefit from a strong, alpha-type owner.<br />Dog Walker Comments - Roper is a very sweet, energetic dog. He was exceptionally good for his bath. He can pull while walking, but he will stop when told to. Although he seems a bit hyper, I believe he will make a good pet for someone.<br /><br /><br /><table align="center"><tbody><tr><td><a href="http://animalprotectors.net/Dogs/Roper/Roper-2.JPG" target="_blank"><img src="http://animalprotectors.net/Dogs/Roper/thumbs/Roper-2.JPG" /></a></td> <td><a href="http://animalprotectors.net/Dogs/Roper/Roper.JPG" target="_blank"><img src="http://animalprotectors.net/Dogs/Roper/thumbs/Roper.JPG" /></a></td> </tr><tr><td><a href="http://animalprotectors.net/Dogs/Roper/Roper1.JPG" target="_blank"><img src="http://animalprotectors.net/Dogs/Roper/thumbs/Roper1.JPG" /></a></td></tr></tbody></table></div><span style="font-size:100%;">Thinking of adopting a rescued Pit Bull?

I didn't realize that even looking through the shelter's list to post about them would be so touching and difficult for me. Please remember to spay and neuter your pets to help cut down on the stray problem. Also if you aren't able to take another pet, please consider helping your favorite shelter in other ways. Volunteer if you can. You don't have to have contact with the animals if that is too hard. You can help them with paperwork or help them fundraise. They are always glad for anything you are able to do.<br /><br />Remember that by adopting a homeless pet, you are saving a life!<br /><br /><span style="font-size:78%;">Info on animals listed here is directly from the shelters PetFinder site.

Its me, Oscar here to let all the kitty readers in on a little fun secret: it is time for the humans to do some Spring Cleaning! For those of you who aren't familiar with this practice it is the purrfect time for us clever felines to get into a little extra mischief. It is also the time to hoard all the things you don't want washed and/or tossed! The Keeper of the Cans began (KotC) her Spring Cleaning this weekend. Here are some signs that Spring Cleaning is near:<br />1. KotC started looking more anxoious and worried each time she looked in the pantry.<br />2. Boxes fell on the KotC's head when she opened the cupboard.<br />3. KotC starred at the cupboards and pantry for large amounts of time while scratching her head.<br /><br />If you are able to catch these warning signs you will then see the following happen:<br />1. Large black bags were filled and left all over the kitchen, which Buttercup got yelled at when she started to lick them. I'm am scratching my whiskers as to why she licks all plastic in the first place.<br />2. My paper bags which I had formed into a nest disappeared from the pantry floor.<br />3. New hiding places were opened. And a warning for all of you. No matter how excited you may be to explore these new hide outs, don't ever let the humans catch you in a compromising position. Little Bear crawled in the spinning cupboard undetected and got to explore for ten whole minutes. I, on the other hand, got caught looking like this:<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWOzJ67lag7EKM6lWf0ZG7AyJG2IYZRh5DAqfyPZG6Tc6_yZKcsYxNi640eYCnffdiE7HY_dUbXG1FoDKZ_TQmqfFIkPAbwetHYsKR7JngbHy1VbxGotUhkgm2GEs-ccdlhn5lS8N9hIDD/s1600-h/P1040288.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWOzJ67lag7EKM6lWf0ZG7AyJG2IYZRh5DAqfyPZG6Tc6_yZKcsYxNi640eYCnffdiE7HY_dUbXG1FoDKZ_TQmqfFIkPAbwetHYsKR7JngbHy1VbxGotUhkgm2GEs-ccdlhn5lS8N9hIDD/s400/P1040288.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5327215130968133074" border="0" /></a>I just hate it when they get pictures of me looking curious and adorable.

Sammie is a big beautiful Polydactyl kitty, meaning he has extra toes! At the last vet visit Sam weighted over 20 pounds so now he is on a diet that consists of almost exclusively canned food. Oddly enough, the canned food does something for a cat's metabolism to help them lose weight. Don't you wish there was chocolate that did that for people?

But without further ado, here is my eccentric little princess Buttercup:<br /><br /><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dwaN8VqKx2hBfspL35tSJNDJqfGP5j6cUtj14mU5zxaGS6moQ14cemnruL0A4pDRK4sGNpBWFLi3ph7ETKYiw' class='b-hbp-video b-uploaded' frameborder='0'></iframe><br /><br /><br /><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dwaUoYM7z6mfTB3SGxmO8FEz4uinwpMXqj9chfhOcmDdK0-Aj1L673uyID7mvMFuqsB8C2gc-umQKRXwq-fHg' class='b-hbp-video b-uploaded' frameborder='0'></iframe><br /><br /><br />This habit can get a little annoying, especially when you walk through the kitchen and step in a puddle, but it is getting better. We have changed to bowls that do not tip over, so at least <span style="font-style: italic;">some</span> of the water remains in the dish. She used to do this with the water bowl that had the huge reservoir bottle on it. She'd push it with her head until the bottle would come off spilling a gallon of water all over the floor. Now <span style="font-style: italic;">that</span> was a mess to clean up.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07848415546986700318noreply@blogger.com1
