I agree. He can only just lope and limp along, slowly. But he'll get adventurous every so often and
go off the deck for a walk. He really does like the warm (HOT) weather... maybe it's soothing to
his injuries.

On the down side... he HATES the vet with a passion. Turns into a tasmanian devil. I have to
fork over for him to be "gassed" at his annual check-up. And he is so placid and affectionate
at home.
Give him a hug and kiss from me, Bear.
I could have cried when I read that. :cry:
My Zooms is the same way... at home, he's all purrs and kisses on my nose. When I get him to the vet, he growls the whole time - like a dog - seriously. :facepalm:

This is our rescue, Riffraff. I inherited him when my daughter moved out and started college. He was found in a dumpster. Poor thing. Just has no idea how to cat. :facepalm:

T'mato is fine in the carrier. Bring him out, with the vet present, and he begins shrieking
and gnashing. No front claws, but his mouth become all bite... and his body finds all kinds
of energy. No way for him to get a proper exam (and rear claw clipping) without getting
zonked out. I was mortified at his first visit... now we know what's needed.

LOOK AT THE TIME!!! Gah!!! Have not even thought about dinner! Ooooo... I'm in for it now!

poor t'mato :( - must have been an old injury if the shoulder couldn't be fixed

as to that vine - you better see if you can get to the root of it, bear! i don't think that's anything that was planted on purpose
Is there anything you don't know something about, Tibbies?:unsure:

It acts like a vine, but it's some kind of bush/shrub thing. It does have blooms and smells good during
bloom. Now that I cut it, the stuff in the pine should die and I'll pull it all out in a week or so. Like I
said, I just almost NEVER even take notice on that end of the property. I'm sure that's at least two
year's growth.

Like her mutant maple is not ENOUGH (see annual raking saga).

DINNER PREP!!!

I gotta tell you folks, I lurk in here from time to time....not trying to be all spy like nosey, just out of boredom and to try and catch pieces of bear's kitty sagas....what can I say, I'm a crazy cat lady minus the cats.
Anyway, sometime back, one of y'all posted a link for free juice from O2Pur.
I clicked that link and signed up.
Why not, right?
Well, I received that juice yesterday, tried it in my tank last night and have tried all day (when time warranted) to get the taste out of my tank. Even changed the cotton.
Just wanted to post a warning to all you folks.
If you signed up, use an old tank or whatever that you plan on throwing away.
It's thin, low quality and extremely yucky.
I opted for watermelon.

I apologize if anyone is offended by me posting....that wasn't (isn't) my intent

:)

i've never seen a bush that climbed like that! :D maybe next year i remind you to take a pic when it's in bloom!

I'm thinking it became too high, leaned over due to prevailing winds, and has been using the
pine branches as support for further growth. It's not just "this year", for sure.

It blooms late May, early June.

Yeah... remind me next year!!! :) :D :lol: Put it on your calendar now!
