The kittens were saved!

This is what happens when an atheist masterbates.

My condolences for oreo as well.

Mmmmmmmmmmm... Kitteh stew. Mah Favorits.

mattw: Woops, that "I'm the decider" part shouldn't have been included in my post. Damn cut and paste.

At least it got a LOL out of me. It was so off the wall I thought it fit with the overall random nature of cat threads.

I'm very sorry about your loss, djamir. Twenty-three years is really impressive.

djamir So sorry, but 23y of love is amazing.

JSTACATBAstrd.. now I got water droplets in my eye somehow.

AS for the story, glad they were found, I have very little thing that I think the death penalty is for but this is one that just makes me wonder.

loupismcw: Cats are awesome, God exists, and I'm not a virgin.

LIAR!!! Your not a virgin and god doesn't exist! Though I agree whole heartedly that cats are awesome.

So sorry, that sucks a big floppy donkey ______(insert word of choice).

JSTACAT: Death pulled up short, so that Mort walked into him. When the boy started to speak he waved him into silence. He appeared to be listening to something.

THERE ARE TIMES, YOU KNOW, he said, half to himself, WHEN I GET REALLY UPSET.

He turned on one heel and set off down an alley at high speed, his cloak flying out behind him. The alley wound between dark walls and sleeping buildings, not so much a thoroughfare as a meandering gap.

Death stopped by a decrepit water butt and plunged his arm in at full length, bringing out a small sack with a brick tied to it. He drew his sword, a line of flickering blue fire in the darkness, and sliced through the string.

I GET VERY ANGRY INDEED, he said. He upended the sack and Mort watched the pathetic scraps of sodden fur slike out, to lie in the spreading puddle on the cobbles. Death reached out with his white fingers and stroked them gently.

After a while something like gray smoke curled up from the kittens and formed three small cat-shaped clouds in the air. They billowed occasionally, unsure of their shape, and blinked at Mort with puzzled gray eyes. When he tried to touch one his hand went straight through it and tingled.

YOU DON'T SEE PEOPLE AT THEIR BEST IN THIS JOB, said Death. He blew on a kitten, sinding it gently tumbling. Its miaow of complaint sounded as though it had come from a long way away via a tin tube.

"They're souls, aren't they?" said Mort. "What do people look like?"

PEOPLE SHAPED, said Death. IT'S BASICALLY ALL DOWN TO THE CHARACTERISTIC MORPHOGENETIC FIELD.He sighed like the swish of a shroud, picked the kittens out of the air, and carefully stowed them away somewhere in the dark recesses of his robe. He stood up.""


He cares about Cats too :) :)

Win!

/newsletter please

Okay,

But all jokes aside, is someone taking care of this?

I mean....this is a serious situation. Someone should be on this. I would, but I'm up in Canuckistan....and they're down in Salt Lake.

DEAR GOD WON'T SOMEBODY THINK OF THE KITTIES!?

/btw, +1 for the Mort quote.

So the person who bred the kitties was too much of a pussy to put them down, instead condemning them to a slow death in a garbage can?

The perpetrator was definitely a woman.

Who farkin cares? A batch of kittens saved. You just cheated some Bald Eagle out of its meal.

I'm sure someone is taking care of this urgent "situation".

I thought this article would be about a peice of shiat shaped like the mother mary.

The Archy and Mehitabel poem was turned into an animated cartoon. It's called Shinbone Alley and it's a damned fine flick.

I saw it when I was eight or so. My mother rented it, thinking it was a kid's movie. Actually, it was a smart kid's movie and I will have it in my collection one day for my daughter, Tesla.

Archy: "Get this damned door off me!"

Little buggers remind me of my kitty.

I misses her.

I can has a kitten?

The family cat recently died. He was 23 (human years). Which also means he was a bag of skin and bones, had no teeth and was really really grumpy. Oh and he had an "odor". But we miss him.

late to the thread, but a good rescue story:
My cousin and his buddies were out fishing in a river one day when my cousin sees this sack floating in the water. He walks out into the river and snags it with a branch. The sack starts moving. After a mild freak out, he opens the sack to find a cute little puppy. He took the little guy home and named him Moses.

April Fool's Day should be renamed Raging Asshole Day.

/mmmmmeow!

Tyrone Biggums: Open_Mouth_Inert_Foot: ah, remninds me of the time I was at a BBQ, and my wife found a litter of kittens in the bathroom, in a baking pan.


almost all the kittens got adopted from the BBQ, excpet one blackone, we saved it for my mother in law.(thatwas my wifes idea)

What?

wow, i don't need a filter when i'm tired

I'm sorry to hear about Oreo. My Lacey is nearly 21 and is having problems with her kidneys. :(

Ok, I know this is probably a stupid question, but that's from On a Pale Horse, right?

I'm sorry to hear about Oreo. My Lacey is nearly 21 and is having problems with her kidneys. :(

Because of hearing stories like that, yesterday we bought a cat drinking fountain that has constant flowing water. The box said it would encourage them to drink more water, which supposedly will help prevent kidney problems.

Sure enough, all three cats immediately were attracted to it and seem to be drinking more than ever before.

/hope your kitty feels better

Both of my kitties are FIV+ and were rescues. One was a stray and the other was scheduled to be put to sleep even though she was only 3 months old. They are now 5 years old and looking at many more happy years to come despite their condition.

Last year we found out that one of them has bladder stones that won't dissolve with medicine, no doubt caused by the high levels of calcium in our water. (They get bottled water now.)
The vet told us we could feed her special food and wait to see if she would be okay with them permanently in her, or we could have them surgically removed for $1600. We're waiting... My husband won't let me get her the surgery even though I make money too and we have enough to live comfortably. (Jerk!)

I worry about my kitties every day. Sometimes I wonder what I'd do without them, they are such a part of my family now. (My fuzzy little children I suppose)I hope they live a long long time and my heart goes out to those of you who have lost a pet or are struggling with a pet's illness.

Primum: So the person who bred the kitties was too much of a pussy to put them down, instead condemning them to a slow death in a garbage can?

The perpetrator was definitely a woman.

Where's my mind... I read that as "The penetrator was definitely a woman."

But a Salt Lake woman walking her dog heard the kittens' cries. Jones adds, "They were soaking wet because it had been raining and snowing. And the box was just, full, it had water in it."

O RLY?

Ok, I know this is probably a stupid question, but that's from On a Pale Horse, right?

It's from a Terry Pratchett novel. "Mort", I think.

i remember archy and mehitabel too.

gai, toujours gai!

JSTACAT: [...awesome Pratchett quote...

At his best ol Terry can be astoundingly lyrical, bordering on genius (particularly in several of the earlier works.)

/WHEN DEATH SPEAKS, YOU SHOULD LISTEN.

ban_sidhe: unfortunately.

NYRBill: I haven't met a cat that doesn't like boxes.

Me neither. I have no clue where this picture came from, but it rules:

They look like they're waiting for the water to rise.

My condolences...

Oreo's the name of the cat who hangs around a local sober living house. He's a big beauty. I'll get a pic one of these days and post it on an appropriate cat thread...

It is also interesting to note that the miracle took place in the parking lot of a church.

Would it not also be noteworthy that the abandonment occurred on church property? Gotta love impartial reporting!

My condolences. Mine died Sunday. Hit by a car. She was only about 4 years old (not sure, adopted from the Humane Society).

Those hemorrhoids acting up again?
