Pet Talk is a loving place
We share the good and bad
In this time of gratitude
My heart is very glad
Full of gratitude and respect
For Karen an Paul
So many heartfelt gifts
Wonderful blessings
You have given so much
More than you know
Way more than you'll ever know.
A gift to us all
Thank you!

Thinking of you and just wanted you to know how grateful we are, for all you have done for us throughout the years with this beautiful website and the countless thousands of hours, heart and soul you have put in. It means SO much.

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

I just really wanted to express my love for my cat today. I will have to do that for Mia when I am moved, otherwise I'll feel guilty.

Mia is so fragile
So old and sweet and kind
She puts up with her rowdy sister
No choice, must blow her mind

Born with 3 legs and does not care
She never missed a beat
I was born this way, Mia knows
I only need 3 feet.

Mia is a precious cat
She is the sweetest freind
Her heart is made of solid gold
We'll love her 'till the end

We never saw a cat so proud
She stood up tall and fine
One paw short, who gives a sh*t
I knew that she was mine

Mia has always had
The greatest self esteem
She knows her family
knows this too
We're on Mia's team

I'm not quite sure
We could repay
The joy that Mia gives
But we will do the best we can
Each moment Mia lives

You should post these in Cat General!

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!

I was just wondering if other folks would like to write some poems about their cats or pets. On the appropriate thread of course. I would love to read them, that's for sure. I would also like to know if any long term cat lovers ( peeps over 50) would ever get a kitten again. Talk about a pain in the arse. Lily is 2 and a bit now, and is a juvenile delinquent. Talk about 'tude. I'd do it all over again in a heartbeat, my husband says. Me too but.......what a tornado, cats a maniac. She's part Bengal, might explain a bit. I think next time we will adopt a cat who's at least one or two.

Absolutely! And we have an old - but fun thread called Cat Haiku, too!

Here is a happy news story about people and their dogs making visits to senior centers. I believe this makes an impact on people. Kids, senior citizens, people experiencing stressful situations, and more. In a previous job we had a therapy dog and her owner visit every other week, and they would sometimes use an elevator near our office to get to another part of the building. That was such a treat, just to have a few minutes in a busy day to love on a beautiful and very well behaved doggie.
