Isn't it fun giving a worm tablet. We once had a cat at the doctors surgery where I worked. Well I adopted her, and we managed to catch her to get her desexed. She was alley born and bred, and we gave her a very appropriate name... Little Girl. I remember trying to give her her first worm tablet. The Ex had never laughed so hard, said he had never seen a cat get it's back leg up over it's head to scratch someone... LOL I still have the scares :) <br /><br />Doing such a great job, animals just know where there is love :D<br /><br />LiBBiE in Oz who has rambled enough tonight.And This Little Pighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11480591607902211914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5845299642721912499.post-69852686688818819672011-02-05T13:16:55.898-08:002011-02-05T13:16:55.898-08:00I am not really sure how, but I've stumbled on...I am not really sure how, but I've stumbled onto your blog and it is THE BEST THING EVER! <br /><br />Can't wait to read more.

We live out of town, too, and were adopted a couple of years ago by a yellow cat who escaped from some neighborhood coyotes by climbing a nearby power pole. The electric company came to rescue the cat and it ran off before they got back on the ground. My husband is allergic, too, so Rupert hung out in the garage. Rupert would come--from the rafters--when you called. I took his picture and listed him with a nearby animal league. After several weeks, a woman drove down our rough driveway and Rupert (we discovered he was a she after we had all gotten used to the name) and the woman fell in love. I saw them bond instantly and got Rupert's food for the lady to take with her. I'm happy has a good home with someone who can treat him the way he told me he should be treated. I'm so glad that you have guard cats now.Denny1600https://www.blogger.com/profile/10755144981213388783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5845299642721912499.post-38600754722015736062011-02-03T07:33:32.178-08:002011-02-03T07:33:32.178-08:00And I also notice that the non cat owner turned be...And I also notice that the non cat owner turned beguiled by cats has a comfy cushion add on for the kitties too.
