"Is this what aging feels like? How soon before I start shooing children off my lawn and squeezing my guinea pigs just a little too tight when I dress them in their little outfits?"

this is my cat Lisa. On the right is a brand-new, soft and fuzzy kitty bed. On the left is the amazon delivery box.

Honest to god, I hope one day my cause of death is being mauled by a lion.

Actually, there's an ordinance stating they have to sit on towels in public spaces - at least there was. With the ban, it may be a moot point...but it does exist.

Right, but she literally started planning this trip three months ago. That's pretty soon to get all that money together.

This would have never happened with Handicar

He is extremely handsome! Does he have any fun quirks?

Me too. The Siamese pictured above passed away in October after many years together. Around the same time two siamese kittens came into the shelter I work at and had to be fostered. I'm a sucker and kept the little boogers. I love all cats, but there's a special place in my heart for the ornery bastards that are…

I don't mean to take any thunder away from Zeb, but if you live in Western NY and are looking for an amazing lap cat who loves being held like a baby, I have a cat for you. Phantom is a homeless cat who showed up on my doorstep about 3 weeks ago. Long story short he only has a few teeth, he has a crumpled ear-the vet…

That was how my cat felt for the first six months, then they became Pinkie and the Brain style best friends.

This was my furry brother for 17 years, the gods rest his fuzzy soul. He left us in June, and I still cry every now and then when I think about him. We had him from the day his momma kitted him to the horrible day we had to say good-bye. His name was Turkey.

The first cat to ever adopt me was a cranky old snuggle-tooth, cross eyed Siamese who liked to nip people a lot. He was FIV positive and the shelter I worked for was going to euthanize him, so my boss basically helped me smuggle him out. He lived a long and happy life as the emperor of my home (and my dogs). I'm…

Here is my pile of 6 month old kittens. Mama had them under my house and somehow, they all live inside now :-/

Hum, guys: this is a bit old. Gaiman already said he was joking, and that people took his name dropping too seriously.

I love that the cat could run away, or jump away, at any moment but was like 'I'm not giving you the satisfaction you thing.' and just ignored the turtle.

Winter foods were about finding ways to make edible calories out of whatever odds and ends were left at mid-winter - and make them festive. Flour nuts? Roast 'em! Meat bits and dried fruit? ADD MORE SUGAR! AND A PIE CRUST! Flour starting to turn a bit? Make it into a heavy cake of dried fruit soaked in rum, and…

I relate so hard. I'm about 40 and I've had so many major life changes, and so many moves (and friends who moved) that I really don't have any super-close friends anywhere near me anymore. It's hard when my closest friends seem to set me aside at times, like I'll just never make it into anyone's inner circle ever…

I know I'll be in the greys but can I show you all my bearded collie giving the most glorious side eye ever?

Ever since the royal wedding, I've been hoping that I can be as adorable as they were at their wedding. The giggles. The glances. The "I love you."

I also love her reaction to meeting Idris Elba. Her entire body is seizing up. She's about one glass of wine away from climbing him like a fucking tree.
