		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Skittles mom in Va is taking care of a disabled kitty
Long story, but the rescue lady has been very nasty, 
this poor scared little girl is partially blind, and needs help
some of what Skittles mom writes...
She has been through a lot and is partially blind so she scares easily. She is living in a crate at my house...and that is actually where she is happiest. I tried moving her into my room and she was very upset. She loves being pet and when she is at her most trusting, even asks for belly rubs. 

She is in Northern Va.
If anycat knows of someone trustworthy to thae this poor scared disabled girl, please paw mail Skittles, or myself, i will forward
Purrs for little Evie
She deserves a goods loving home


Hopeful purrs, 
The catfather]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ OK, Here's what we know

Kitty went to the Vet
Vitals are good
she weighs 9.7 lbs, kitten is 8oz

However.......
They did an x-ray...a radiograph

her uterus is distended, and firm

the vet believes that, 95%, that there is either another kitten, deceased in there, or an unexpelled placenta

She will need surgery

Miss Samoa's mom is doing an auction for kitty

and we thank her deeply for it

as of now, Kitty shows no signs of distress, is eating and nursing

Please purr for her.

Very worried purrs,
Blizzard]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ I's hats to asks, but wees needs purrs, for da kitty next door
Her name is Kitty
She is pregnant, had a few friday, so far, only 1 survived
However, they took her to vet yesterday,, and there are MORE still inside
he said she needed a c section, as her canal was too small, or the kittens were too big

he heard 4 more heartbeats, so 4 more are in there, dat woulds make 8 total
1 that's still alive, and the 3 that didn't make it
Now they say this is not her 1st litter, and never had problems before.
They, nor daddy has da money for a cesarian...12-1500$$

Daddy says if something happens to momma, he'll bring kitten HERE, and care for it, feeding every 2 hours. Think dats right.

Any sugguestions, thoughts?
Prayers definately needed for Kitty, though


Please, Please, Spay/Neuter your furkids!!!
Dis breakin daddy's heart agains.

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Christmas is a very special time. Especially for us this year.

This has been a very tough year, and as you know, daddy has no family anywhere close

However, this, despite everything, has been one of the happiest.

Why?
Because of YOU!!

Catsters, who came to our aid, who helped us thru, and who made it possible for us to have a Catmus.

We are humbled by this, and are grateful beyond words.

So, i raise this Niptini to you, our wonderful furriends.
You truly are,
Gods gift to us all!!


With a humble heart,

The Catfather and the Taneytown Crew


God bless us all, each and every one

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ a poem from one of daddy's cat sites

For everyone missing their fur babies this Christmas, a wonderful poem... tissues required.

THE NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS AT RAINBOW BRIDGE

'Twas the night before Christmas, at Rainbow Bridge too.
We Bridgekids were thinking as always of you.
We'd seen how the holidays weren't bright this year,
Heard you whisper so often, "I wish you were here!"

We know how you wish you could just stay in bed
And sleep through the holiday lying ahead,
When all celebrate with their loved ones so near...
Unless they have loved ones on this side this year.

But we're no less alive here, on the other side.
If you could just see us, you'd've laughed and not cried.
The dogs all in harness, pulling the sleigh.
The cats all in Santa hats pointing the way.

The pet birds all flying back over the rainbow,
Bound homeward in spite of Earth's darkness and snow.
All the pets that you've lost, pets for whom you've cried,
Flying home on this Christmas to be by your side.

If you feel warm fur brush you when no pet's around,
Hear a soft bark or purr, just a ghost of a sound,
We're trying to tell you we're visiting this way,
And our visits, even rainbows, can be on any day.

But for Christmas we have something special to do,
A sleighful of happy dream visits for you.
On doggy, on kitty, on winged friend and ferret!
The love that you lavished, we mean now to share it!

We're fetching that love home, the way we once played,
With the closeness we shared and the memories we made.
Our Earth lives with you were too short for us, too,
And on this Christmas Eve we have so much to do.

So all through this night as you sleep in your beds,
Sweet visions of furbabies dance in your heads.
This one special night we can bring you Home for a while,
Your true home in Heaven, where again you will smile.

Over the rainbow you'll fly, for a short while this night,
Hours that you'll be happy, hours that will feel right,
Hours to cuddle and hug us, to run and to play,
Before the return to Earth in our magic way.

And when you awaken and face Christmas Day,
We pray you'll remember your trip on our sleigh,
But in case you forget, just remember our love.
Remember us watching you, your angels above.

Sending love wrapped in rainbows, shining and bright,
Love that will guide you through the darkest night,
Love found in each memory unwrapped through the year,
Replacing dark sorrows with Christmas cheer.

Leave the toys to St. Nick, we Bridgekids bring dreams,
Sweet visits to remind you all is not as it seems
When you look all around you with tired Earthly eyes.
If you saw as we do, there'd be joy and surprise.

There are furangels waiting by those Christmas trees,
Always there for you and hearing your pleas.
We're never more than a thought away from your home,
You're never forgotten, you're never alone.

Nor are we alone here, with our Rainbow Bridge friends.
We know only joy here, the celebrating never ends,
And after our reunions with you Christmas Eve,
We Bridgekids will party like you'd never believe.

But we'll slip away often to be by your side.
Sitting there watching you, eyes open wide,
Praying you'll be able to catch a glimpse of us, too.
But whether or not you see us - Merry Christmas to you!

Cindy Morgan (2007)]]></content:encoded>

i hope this posts, been getting entries disappearing all weekend, or error 4

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ This is an alert for all east coast kitties from Virginia to Maine.
Sandy is coming, and guys...this one means business. Mid Atlantic states are likely targets, but all need to be prepared

If you are told to evacuate, please be sure that your humans have made plans for you. Most hurricane shelters do not accept pets, ( though i defy anycat to call mees a PET!!)

If you are staying home, be sure you have enough water and food for us, not just the humans.

Purrs that this nasty thing goes away, but think the chances of that are about as much as Panda not hissing (snicker)

OW!! What was that for??? Cat has no sense of humor!]]></content:encoded>

My Buddy.  Squeaker.

WAAAAHHHHHHH!!!


* From Daddy*

Squeaker has been drained of fluid 3 times in a week.. he won't eat now, and has told me, in his way, he's ready. 
So, if he is here friday afternoon,,,we will make that final journey. A vet will come here, so he passes at home, in peace.

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ editorials like this makes me cough up hairballs!!!
http://www.catster.com/lifestyle/cat-photos-abused-posting-facebook

Telling us not to post animal abuse, or pics of poor kitties on death row.
Hey, editorial writer!! Yous knows how many kitties been rescued because of crosspostings, just like that??? let me tell you....LOTS

People who do that are doing the kitties a service. some find furrever homes in da 11th hour because of it. 
My daddy crossposts daily, and i's loves him even more for it!!

and as far as animal abuse pics go, yes, some are gory, most very unsettling. but postings like that have gotten laws changed.

I's sorry if it offends your sense of taste, decorum, or whatevers. but anything we can do to help is great.
Ignoring the pics/not crossposting, and not thinking about it does no fur any good

Come on...get with it

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ from one of daddy's cat group pages...
very fitting.

I wonder if you see me?
Can my little voice be heard?
I'm waiting here so patiently for you to come and take me home.
I'm young, I'm old, I'm playful, I'm tired.
I've had only one wish in life and it's very simple too,
to be loved and treated kindly, by someone just like you.
I'll give you my full attention.
I'll love you unconditionally.
If you'll just stop and listen,
you'll hear it's you that I'm speaking to.
So please stop just a minute and turn your eyes my way.
You'll see I'm looking for you and beg that you'll come today.
Sometimes I start to loose hope as the days and weeks wear on.
My voice is one of thousands.
I pray that mine is heard.
Dear Lord.....please let me be loved by someone.....please help me find a home.
Sincerely.....A Shelter Pet]]></content:encoded>

He was going to have an xray this morn but the vet didnt want to stress him out anymore. The next 24-48 hrs are critica 
they have ruled out URI's. if fluid biulds up in the next 24-42hrs then there is nothing else that can be done. If he makes thru to thurs he will be having an xray to see what is going on but there is a strong chance that the cancer has returned.

Please purr for My little buddy, He's been through so much. And his Mom just lost Ollie a few months ago.

I feel so helpless, We Want to help!!!

â€śI Am Always With Herâ€ť
 
And God Asked the Feline Spirit,
Are you Ready to Come Home?
Oh Yes, Quite So, Replied the Precious Soul,
â€śAnd As a Cat, You Know I Am Most Able To

Soon, Replied the Whiskered Angel, For You See, I Must Come Slowly,
For My Human Friend is Troubled and Sad and She Needs Me Quite Certainlyâ€¦
 
Doesnâ€™t She Understand, Asked God, â€śThat You Will Never Leave Herâ€ť
That Your Souls Are Intertwined For All Eternityâ€¦
That Nothing Is Created or Destroyed!
It Just Isâ€¦Forever and Everâ€¦
 
Eventually She Will Understand, Replied the Glorious Cat
For I Will Whisper Into Her Heart That I Am Always With Her!

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ I am home...finally. Everycat has been checking me out, and seems happy i'm back, except for you know who. (Panda, give the hissing and growling a break....PAWLEASE!!!)
I want to thank all my great furriends, who purred for me, and wrote comments, left gifties, and sent daddy messages. Is good to be loved!!

On another paw, this has made mees realize, dat i's getting OLD!!!
So, i'll be on da lookout, throughout catsterland, to select my successor as Catfather. This kitty will be tough, but loving, with a big heart. One who cares about EVERY cat here, and anywhere, to carry on my work, when my time comes (hopefully not for many years...but, i will be 16 this year)

So, if you feel eyes watching you, it may be me, seeing if yous has what it takes to be da next Catfather!!!]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Blizz is still at the vet. he is now awake, and off the iv, we've ruled out FIP, Liver failure, Pancreatitis, and most cancer. now leaning towards either a rare disease, specific to angoras, or something genetic. 
He drank a little, ate a few bites of kibble, didn't touch the wet though. 
He threw a fever late last night, and they added antibiotics, and as of 5:30 eastern, the fever has broken. 
We believe, if we can get him to eat....AND not throw up, he may be able to beat whatever this is. They are sending blood to a lab in dc, for analysys.
Thank you for your purrs, POTP WORKS WONDERS!!!

a very grateful daddy]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ I am at the vet. Haven't eaten all day, throwing up, won't drink. and having trouble using the box. Am very lethargic too, and hiding alot. Daddy and the vet are worried. This does not look good, my friends. Bloodwork will be back tonorrow, but will be staying at the vets. He thinks, there is a very good possibility of liver failure, or even the dreaded FIP. I need some purrs, my furriends.

Please, remembers da less fortunate of us...da ferals. They will bees havin a hard time finding food, and stayin warm. So if yous has Ferals where yous lives, and either has spare food, or some yous won't eat, Tells your human to give it to da ferals, pawlease.
Also, if yous has an old box, old tote...throw some olds clothing dat yous human was going to toss in dat box, ands set it out for dem. I know they will really appawciate it.  Don't has to be fancy, or nothin, a box is better than nothing at all. least it's out of snow and wind.
Bless yous all. and thanks

Winters coming, sooner than you think. Please remember the ferals during the winter, as food is hard to come by!! 
Thank you all for being the kind, generous kitties thay you are

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Ok Purrs are needed for all the furs in Puerto Rico, The islands of Hispanola and Cuba, the Bahamas, and the east coast of the U.S. from hurricane Irene. Massive flooding and power outages in the islands, and the potential of a MAJOR hurricane hitting the east coast, anywhere from Florida to Maryland.  Big purrs that it turns out to sea.

I would like to ask, if your pawrents bought food you won't eat, don't throw it out. if you don't have ferals and strays where you live, send it to Tigger and Sobe's dad. he feeds lots of strays and ferals, and could use it, i is sure. 
Thank mew furriends!]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Dear furriends!! Just a little note to let you know that after this week, starting August 8th, we will not be around as much. We WILL still be here, when we get a chance, just depends on when daddy gets home each night, and how tired he is! The Maryland Renaissance festival starts the end of the month, and daddy has over 200 portable toilets to get down there and set up!! Plus, he will be working Sunday mornings, starting August 28th, thru the 3rd sunday in October! Then he has to get them all back to the yard!
We WILL be here on Saturdays, and Sunday afternoons, and any weekdays that it is possible!!
Remember...bees good!!! The Catfather is STILL watching!!!
Loves to you all!!]]></content:encoded>

He was in the grass, gone. He had apparently been shot with a bb gun. The little guy tried to get here, but just couldn't make it. Guess it happened yesterday, and he crawled from whereever to the yard, and passed before daddy got home. Little kitty, we really didn't know you, but we wish you god speed to the bridge, and that we know you will be waiting for daddy there. Rest easy, little guy]]></content:encoded>

This heat is dangerous, so be suer your humans put plenty of water out for you, and if possible, stay INSIDE, in da a/c until it cools off. For outside kitties, drink even more, and stay in the shade!! We are all purring that our friends : old, new, and not met, stay safe and healthy!!
For da humans. if yous live near a feral colony, PLEASE make sure they have water, and plenty of it!! ( A little food too, if you can spare it, but water is most important)
Purrs to all, and stay safe and cool in this blazing hot weather!
Purrs from the Catfather]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ I brought my lovely Booboo here to Baltimore. We took in a ballgame at Oriole park, toured the inner harbor, visited the USF Consellation, and ate dinner at the world famous Phillips Restaurant! We had the most delicious crab cakes you can imagine!! 
Later in the evening, we took a cruise on the Lady Baltimore, sipped champain, and watched the sun set over the Chesapeake, looking lovingly in each others eyes. We watched the fireworks from the top of the world trade center!!! ( They wouldn't let us in the aquarium!!! Wonders why??? Oh we're cats!!!MOL)
I took my Booboo back to the airport, and watched as her plane took off for Texas, with tears in my eyes. 
It was the mostest enchanting day of mys life!!!

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ This is blizzard's daddy, I'm writing this from the library for him. Our computer MAY be toast! Spent 170$ today, and we still don't have it fixed. Plus, have a hard drive error!! My tech support guy, ( From a site River's daddy suggested), Says ( After 2 hrs on the phone) That the only thing left to try now is a wipe and re-load, so will do that after I get home tomorrow!! Need to get some dvd-r's and a flash drive first!! The gang and I really hope this works, as if the hard drive is messed up, we will only be able to communicate with everycat at the library!! Like others have said, when I'm home, I'm a catster shut-in!!
Here's hoping it works tomorrow, otherwise, this summer is REALLY going to stink!!! ( not to mention, I'll have 6 very upset kitties!!]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Well, it seems that after my "little talk" with Simba about ouchies... Tiny Tot and Lacey think I should be the godfather!! ( I an rather large, after all) But I don't know!!! First, I think Catfather is a better title, and second, Guido would have to make me a honorary italian kitty!!! ( Who ever heard of a Turkish godfather???) Well, what does everyfurry think??? ( Read Simba's diary...you'll see. The Drifter said it worked!!) Purrs Big Blizzard]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ Daddy went to work this morning, and about a half hour after he left, we had a thunderstorm. Now, I don't know why, but even though i'm deaf, thunderstorms scare me badly. I ran all over the apartment, needing daddy to hold me, but he wasn't there. How come he didn't run right home and protect me??? Was I bad??? I told him all about it when he came home this afternoon, and he gave me some extra lovings... (sigh) I guess i'll have to forgive him...THIS TIME.]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[ I've been tagged by my furriend Tabitha. 5 things my human does that annoy me...1-Not being fed dinner at 4pm exactly. Daddy, I don't care if you're still working, I expect my dinner at 4PM. 2-waking me up at 3:30AM. I know you have to go to work, but how about a decent hour...atleast let the sun come up! 3-Eye meds...Do NOT put that stuff in my eyes!!! I don't like it! 4- No more cats daddy...there's not enough room in the bed!!!5- buying enclosed litter boxes! I'm too big for them! I need a big open box! (OK, I know I have 2 like that, but they should ALL be like that! Now, to tag 5 furriends...Casper-116757, Cleopatra-620590, Max-1175543, Nike-145215, and Tanner-1059087]]></content:encoded>
