Andi, I am so sorry to hear that you lost Caramel. What a sweet little guy he was. And then to go through so much with your neighbor's passing--what an ordeal that must have been for you. I hope the new little one brings you and your kids some comfort.

My deepest condolences to you, Kellie. What a beautiful boy he was. May your sorrow ease in time and be replaced with gentle memories of Dante.

Thank you, Andi, for the post.

Jane, I'm so sorry to hear that your Betsy is ailing. What a pretty little girl she is. I truly hope the medications continue to help her improve. It really tests our courage when our beloved animal companions get older. My Blondie is fourteen and nearly deaf now. I've been teaching her sign languag...

Thanks all for your input and concern. Alexa, I very much appreciate the additional information. Thank you. Scootersbear, I have not been able to find in my research any companies that are putting a bittering agent in on their own. That's not to say that there are none. The amount of reading one mus...

Dear Friends, I regret that I have not been visiting the forums as often as usual; however, as many of you know, I have been deeply involved in two special projects that have kept me busy during most of the time I am not at work. The first of these is my ongoing effort to gain support for those legi...

This article brought me a moment of sheer joy when I read it today. The dog that was taken from the boy boarding the bus--brought to our attention by Mike--has been found. His name is Snowball and efforts are now being made to get him back to the boy. Please refresh the page if the article does not ...

Corky is such a sweetheart! That first photo is a riot. My Chelsea carries her blankie around, too. It's all I can do to get it away from her long enough to launder it. How lucky you are to have Corky the Corker. Give him a warm hug for me.

Ahh, Kathleen, I'm so happy that you posted these photos of Curtis. I just could gobble him up for puddin' pie. You've really captured the beauty of him in these photos, especially in that second photo. What a charming little guy he is....and unless you object, he is going to be my new desktop wallp...

Even scary he looks cute, Annie. I'd be hugging that little one all the time. He just tugs at my heart.

I love that expression on her face. What a sweetie she is. She and my Misty look so much alike, except that Thelma's white bib is a bit wider. Very nice photos, Doris.

In Memory of my beloved cat, Kibbie, who was released from his pain on May 2, 2005, after accidentally ingesting antifreeze.

"Kibbie, my sweet boy, Mommy will love you always and cherishes the time we had together."

Dear Friends, The second Sunday of September--falling this year on the eleventh--is National Pet Memorial Day. Thanks to a thoughtful suggestion from Janet, we on this forum will be observing this same date each year to remember our own lost animal companions. On this, the First Annual Pet Memorial ...

Bengal, you need not concern yourself that you are posting in the wrong place. We all share your passion and outrage about the abandoned animals in the stricken Gulf area. I have wept many tears over the human suffering taking place there, especially for those poor souls trapped in the sports dome w...

Thanks you, Bengal for this thoughtful post. And thanks, Janet for adding a link. We can't forget these sweet critters during this terrible disaster.

Wonderful photos, Char. Mickey is a dollbaby, for sure.

What a precious little rascal he is! I could love that little boy to pieces and never stop.

Oh, my, what a precious photo that is. A beautiful baby and that adorable pup....they must give you much happiness.

Funny stories, all. Over the years I have been continually fascinated by the odd and often comical behaviors my cats have exhibited. My Ebony has a plastic bag "fetish" and will spend much time licking any plastic bag I fail to put away. I have never figured that one out. My Misty likes to pounce on...

He was down in Doggie Jail 2 nights. Never saw a happier dog than when I picked him up on Monday. However, he came home with a tatoo of a Poodle on his shoulder, smoking and a bad attitude toward the cats. :roll: Karry, you just cracked me up despite the sad story of the fire. What a cool sense of ...

Thanks so much for that heartening update, Joan. I'm so glad that Crystal is coming along and not fighting the cone. My best to that sweet baby and much hope for an early recovery.
