They are only mildly toxic, not as dangerous as we used to be told. Here's a good explanation: https://www.petpoisonhelpline.com/poison/poinsettia/

And why did Lily bite? Because she's a Kat - all the reason you need!

Thanks Karen! I think we'll pass on the old pointsettia again as we do with the tree too. Too much potential for disaster. As for Lily.... 🙄 I have no comment! A very Happy Holidays to you sweetheart!! 🎄

I feel the same way. Every day, I look forward to Pet Talk. I have not been here as long as most of you, but it has become part of my life.
Thank you, Karen and Paul (whom I never had the pleasure to meet here on Pet Talk)

You know you are really pathetic when a girlfriend you haven't seen in ten yrs. invites herself over and she'll be here this Wed. You realize you only have two Christmas cards, and put some of the ones you saved, cuz they are cute out so she'll think you received more cards than you actually did. Then you realize one of the cards is one that she sent you last year. The other one is blank, one that's left over we didn't send and the other one is to my husband from our 2 cats 😸😼🤔

Truly, I have too much time on my hands. My freind is beautiful and would never notice I'll bet. She is a Jehovahs Witness, loves dogs, people and has not got a judgemental bone. I wonder if she'll like my new tattoo. It's a full sleeve and I just got it done 3 and a half weeks ago.....all at once. It's all healed but still a bit itchy. Pet talkers, never do it! I like the result, the artist was the very best professional but it was pure torture. So painful, freaking brutal freinds. I have a very high pain tolerance and I gotta say, torture is the best description. 6 hrs.lotsa blood. Like it now though.

A Poem for Lily

Lily is a feline goddess
She is the queen
There will be no rhyme
Lily does not care
It's Lily's world
Not ours, ha-ha
She makes every rule
She's heartless, she's loving
Her beauty is beyond compare
She's vicious and sweet
So playful and spirited
Sleepy and gluttonous
Unpredictable, so scary
Every day is Lily's day
Her heart is wild and free
Never underestimate our Lily
Never tamed, no rules for her
So beautiful
Never take her for granted
Always a kitten to us
Vulnerable and sweet
Violent and spooky
Most gracious, terribly evil
It is little Lily's world
Make no mistake
She takes no prisoners
She expects excellence
Deserves the best
Lily gets what Lily wants
Impossible one wee cat
Such a delight
So violent and unpredictable
A joy to behold
Her spirit burns so bright
She is love

You could have had a lot more if you would have signed up for the Pet Talk Christmas card swap!

You are so,right! I wanted to, I wasn't sure about postage. If I bought a book of American stamps is the postage the same for every state? Then Canada post went on strike, they like to go on strike around Christmas, the devils. Hopefully next year I will stop making excuses as I would really enjoy participating, the giving and receiving! I'll bet you all enjoyed it so much!
