L33t Squirrel: SweetBecca: late as usual, but what the heck...

Holy SH*T, I own that exact same comforter! :D


I do too. Got it for my dorm back in college. Somewhere there's a pic of Kitty standing on it, although I can't find that atm. Right now the comforter itself is hanging over the top of the bedroom door, here, to serve as a stop-block: I can shut the door and use the comforter to keep hubby's friend from seeing me in my bed, but it keeps the door open far enough that cats can pass in and out. Mine's in pretty decent shape, but I have no idea where the sheets went. I thought I brought them with me, but hubby insists the black ones in the closet are his. Don't know. They look like my extra-long twin ones (the comforter's a queen-size, though). But I suppose I could be wrong.

/Probably hubby's wrong, his memory is worse than swiss cheese
//Speaking of cheese, Monty Python is not obscure :P

L33t Squirrel: things I do to my cats...: try Monty Python's Flying Circus. now, which skit?

Oh, damnit, it was the cheese shop sketch. How the hell did I confuse John Cleese with Peter Sellers? Teh Fail, I haz it.

Sarah Palin Cat?

missionpants: Oh no trouble at all! Its funny all the names I can think up for my cats! It sounds nuts, but you really have to get to know their personality first and they sort of name themselves...

And a MILLION thank you's for the subscription! That was very kind of you! Best of luck to you and your kitteh!

P.S. I shall use any new found powers for good not evil, pwomise...


indeed. they name themselves. and sometimes the names sound "dumb" or "less than creative", but that is JUST their name and that. is. that. :-)

oh gawd... MP on TF! sounds like an episode of Monty Python! :))

So cool! I think I gave the sheets away to my mother-in-law for something, but I miiiiight still have them running around somewhere. And while I still have and use the pillowcases, I lost the bedskirt a few years back when I accidentally left a load of stuff overnight in the public washing machines at one of our old apartments and it got tossed. :(

 
sherpa18 [TotalFark] 2009-07-12 01:15:51 AM  

And once again, a huge thank you to all you wonderful Caturday Farkers (too many to list now) who made Dragon's Birfday very special for him (and me).

With sincerest apologies to things I do to my cats, I wish I could keep going, but since I have been sick the last 2 days, I gotta crash. Here's hoping for 700!

I only ever had one pillowcase, and never the bedskirt (it was a dorm, my bed was on a shelf :P). But man, that's one reason I'm so glad not to be in an apartment anymore, shared laundry rooms. I can slum around in my own house naked as a jay-bird while my laundry washes, and I don't have to worry about it getting stolen, or the machine opened up mid-cycle so some hooligan can paw through it and take what he wants, and then left there like that. I also like having a proper-sized kitchen, and not being able to hear people through my walls. Having a house is *nice*.

leftteffticle: thank you SHG for the links, i tried country and they rejected her. my hopes are with angels wish. i will branch out to farther from madison now and see what i can find. milwaukee and chicago are my next markets, anyone have any advice about no kills/rescues in either city?

thank you everyone for advice. so far all the no kill shelters in the area have rejected her. i want to get her taken care of, vet wise, but i do not have the money right now...and well, shes not my cat though i love her and would contribute money to her happiness. but i already had to spend $200 on my own cats recently and i just...i cant spent another few hundred to get her checked out. i have to move soon and...i just cant. and her owner is unemployed so he can contribute no money. he took her for a checkup but couldnt afford the tests. i contacted the vet school at uw madison and they actually charge more than my current vet. im just...im worried cause ive tried to find her a home and everyone who has generously offered support has just...not worked out. through no fault of their own, muggsers just needs a very particular environment. but what is it? how can i find it?

i really appreciate everything anyone has provided. please continue to advise.. im so upset over this.


she's so pretty, someone has to be able to love her.


Surely SOMEONE on here is a vet and can help this person?? This is heartwrending.

ninderry: peachy92: meer markt: Little obsessive much? We all have our vices, but dominating a fark caturday thread?

Get over yourself. Caturday is a nice way to relax. There is so much shiat going on in the world right now. If these farkers enjoy posting cat photos and caption them, what business of it of yours? Plus, there are many people on Fark that do not post in these threads but enjoy viewing them. (By the way, lurkers, come on out, we don't bite and enjoy any cat photo that isn't sick or violent!)

I can only agree that there are a few dedicated farkers who post LOLcats, and as a long term lurker all I can say is:

Thank You to you wonderful people.

Being from Oz I'm always late for this, but a great way to spend Sunday morning.

AND if someone hadn't posted about Siberians and that they are hypo-allergenic last October, I wouldn't now have my two cats Sabina and Vasya.

But yes must get my act together and post them - just need to find the best place to store the photos - any suggestions?

So thanks to the posters - you are why most of us stay here each week.


yay! that was (probably) me!!!! i'm so happy you have kitties to love now!!

I tend to have trouble believing that the cats in TFA earn their room and board. I haven't come across a cat yet that is able to work. Unless, of course, you're talking about being super adorable and entertaining, then, yes, cats can easily earn their keep.
