    I like to watch Ed sleep.

    There is something about seeing a cat deep in sleep, in some postion that I could only dream of getting into.

    The first week I had the Edster I couldn't tell his rear from his head. One day I spent three minutes looking at his arse thinking he had broken his neck.

    And to think I took anatomy classes.

    Cats always snub me. I look at a cat and immediately feel insulted! Like I'm not good enough for them or something, LOL.
    stacwase, I saw on the other post that Toby suddenly changed his mind after you've been typing this! Amazing! He must have read your thoughts! What a smart kitty!

    It's odd. He's laying beside me right now with one paw stretched out touching my leg.

    One of those things that make you go "Hmmmmm."


    Thanks for the siggy, Lexi_Lover!

    Oh, I'm sure they understand more than we will ever know!

    I'm glad he finally seems to accept you as a true friend!

    I've been an animal lover since I was born. I really have no preference. Dogs, cats, fishies, spiders, snakes, squirrels, frogs, you name it, I love it. It's just that cats fit more in the lifestyle right now since I'm gone most of the day.

    There's no such thing as loving an animal too much!
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

    Until one has loved an animal, part of their soul remains unawakened.

    Cats are really amazing!

    I love both dogs and cats, and living with both, there is such a difference between them! Cats are so independant and they *always* have their own purrsonalities, and so much catitude, as the dogs often copy each other and cry/bark just because the other one is crying/barking LOL.

    Another thing is cats have so many different(and some weird) ways of showing you that they love you, and they're alot harder to figure out, I like that part of them.

    Pet Talk actually helped me learn ALOT about cats, I've had Tigger since I was pretty young(about 10) and didn't know much about cats or why they did things or anything really, and I have learned tons right here.

    After learning alot, I really wanted to add another kitty to the house, and I never expected it to be this nice, I still can't believe how much it's changed by big boy, I love every minute of it

    RIP Jasper. I can't believe you're gone.
    RIP Tigger...I miss you every single day.

    This was done before I got off the boat but this is right up my ally...

    What makes me love cats so much? EVERYTHING about them! If God made anything any sweetier, he kept it in Heaven! I have loved them for as far back as I can remember. There has always been cats in my life, my whole family loves them, I even remember my Grandma always had one. They are soft, loving, non judgemental, accepting and grateful of any small gift, never to criticize how "cheap" or "ugly" it is. They are fun to watch, playful, and just sit and watch them wash their face.... Is that not the cutiest thing you ever saw? They are our companions, our comforter... our FAMILY and yes, our children. I take my committment to getting a cat as serious as I did to having my children. They are dependant on us and the rewards of having them, far outweigh the expense or messes of having them. THEY are what makes a house a HOME!
