Arrival Story:
When I was just 7 weeks old, this nice lady found me in the middle of the street being beaten up by a big old alley cat. I was too sick to defend myself. She took me inside, but then her eyes started watering and she got all stuffy and full of snot just like me! So she gave me to this nice man named John who lived upstairs. He saw that I was very sick, so he gatherd up what little money he had, tucked me in his jacket and took me to a strange place. It was a long and rainy trip. At the strange place they gave me medicine and told him how to take care of me. He brought me home, and he and this other lady gave me the nasty medicine every day until I felt better. I decided that even though the medicine was gross, I liked these humans. They became my Dad and Mom. When I got better, they let me run around and play and I met Poe. He helped raise me and showed me how to be a cat. I lived with Dad for a few years, and now I live with Mom. They "broke up" (that is a hard concept for a cat) right after I was found, but they stayed friends for a long time so they could both take care of Poe and me.

Bio:
John Rambo, or Dad, as I called him, passed away in December of 2003. . Poe, Mom, and I miss him terribly. He was a great friend to human and feline alike. Lenore was put to rest on July 18th, 2008. After two masectomies, she was losing her fight with breast cancer and missing her best friend Poe, who passed away in April.

My diary got picked!

I'm so excited that my diary made it onto today's picks!

I feel like i should use my 15 minutes of fame to do something pawstive. In light of my recent cancer surgery, I want to share some advice for all of my kitty friends and their humans, and even the dogs out there.

Massages are important! Not only to do they feel great for us pets, but they let the humans find scary things like lumps or wounds before they get worse. Humans, try to massage your pets daily!

If your kitty or dog doesn't like massages, give them lots of treats while touching them all over. Eventually most animals will associate touching with good stuff and let you massage them.

 

Cancer!

I know i don't update this thing much. I need Mom's help, and she's really busy.

The bad news is I'm a cancer kitty :( When I went to the vet a few months ago, she found lumps in my breasts.

The good news is that the lumps were removed! I had a partial masectomy (they only took out 2) and they haven't come back yet. Mom checks me a lot to make sure. The vet took my blood (and shaved my neck to do it -- the indignity!) and said the cancer didn't metastize or something that like that. It was a big word the would have meant the cancer spread, but that didn't happen so for now I'm ok!

 

Absessed Tooth!

A couple of weeks ago i had an absessed tooth. My face swelled up and i looked like Popeye with one squinty eye. I tried to play it off by eating and carrying on like usual, but mom saw it and sent me to the vet.

Then mom and her human friend that lives here shoved pills down my throat twice a day for two weeks straight. I didn't deserve that! I was the sick one here!

Being chased and caught and then violated like that raised my stress level and i puked a lot. The humans had to clean it up. Serves them right.

Now i'm all better, though, and i've forgiven the humans for their mean behavior.
