akimbotoo: She sure does look so much better! Ok, so what have you named her? ;D

Her shelter name is Anita, but she looks a lot like another sick foster named Serenity that we found a "forever home" for so we're calling her serenity II. Blast from the not so distant past...

Sick Serenity


Happy Serenity


Right before adopted Serenity


FYI to everyone...
I really get a great feeling of accomplishment from doing stuff like this and other volunteer work I'm involved in. If you've got a spare couple of hours a month you really should look into doing a little volunteer work.

predle: What tomorrow morning may look like in the Johnson City Best Western

/can someone explain to me why there's a Best Western in New York?
//shouldn't it be a Best Eastern?

There was at one point a Best Western and Best Eastern (both owned by the same person/group I think), but the two combined together under the name Best Western in 1966.

Best Western History according to them. (new window)

From Wiki (clicked before I pasted)

"The name "Best Western" was a result of most of their properties originally being in the Western United States west, of the Mississippi River. From 1946 to 1964, Best Western had a marketing partnership with Quality Courts, the forerunner of the chain known today as Quality Inns, whose properties were located mostly east of the Mississippi River, not in direct competition with Best Western. This partnership made sense geographically, but was not successful in the long run, and was abandoned. In 1964, Best Western launched an expansion effort of its own operations east of the Mississippi using the moniker "Best Eastern" for those properties with the same typestyle and Gold Crown logo as "Best Western." By 1967, the "Best Eastern" name was dropped and all motels from coast-to-coast got the "Best Western" name and Gold Crown, a move that would further enhance an already successful marketing brand into the "World's Largest Hotel Chain" by the 1970s."

Thanks for all the warm welcomes! (And warnings!) I am a biter myself, so I should fit in just fine! ferfer72, thanks for the caption.. Conan was sleeping in the sink, I could imagine his reaction if I turned on the water at that moment! He was not to happy the night he jumped into the toilet while my hubby was using it! Sopping wet kitten at 4 in the morning is not fun! Had to rinse him off in the sink that night.

Here's how Cooper looks with his (what we call) his "poodle cut" after we brought him home from his 4 day hospital stay.

laulaja: Glad I don't recall who 'twas who complained a pg or so back about thread moving too slowly. Booo hissss ....

I'd post more, but I don't have anything interesting/useful to say, I don't wanna attention-whore (more than I already have), and I just got back from a walk at the mall and a hot shower. I got a cookie, too.



Well, I had two, but I eated one. And now that I have successfully uploaded the pic, time to warm it up and eat it as well! OM NOM NOM. (Pardon the craptastic phone pic, but I can't be arsed to dig up my camera, and the lighting in my room is AWFUL!!! Yuck, SO cannot wait to go home.)

Hi Caturdayinz,

For your captioning pleasure, or just to enjoy.

Ahh, poor guy, how's he doing? Lucy had those, but with her strange I colors I didn't even notice them till a couple of days after she came home.


He's doing better, thanks. He doesn't like his special food but he is tolerating it. He wouldn't eat at all in the hospital and they ended up force feeding him on Tuesday morning.

His personality has done a 180 since he was there. We haven't even had to start his anxiety meds back up. He has yet to attack a dog and seems like a totally different kitty. It seems that either the pain meds or the anesthesia are still affecting him some. He goes for another checkup on Friday.

Nice lip warmers!
Also like the "three cats under the moon" shirt, and the CBS logo on AN.

Here, take this cat.

Long hospital stays are rough. Hope he has a speedy, full recovery.

What kind of food is he on? Mine are now on Royal Canin Urinary SO, they seem to really like the dry, we'll see about the wet in the morning. I am going to start giving everybody cosequin so I don't have to police their breakfast to keep Juno and Morticia from stealing Lucy's food.


He is on the Royal Canin Urinary SO diet too, both wet and dry. We've tried a few others and he doesn't want to even touch them so this one seems to be the best choice for him. He is such a cat...lol

Repo Man: I rescued a couple of feral kittens last October. I already had three cats, I didn't need any more! But they were so little. THe local humane society wouldn't take them (I live too far from the city limits). Thankfully, my mom agreed to take one of them off my hands.

Here is a clip of them on my bed. (new window) It was their last day together, I took one of them to my mom's after that. They are sweet little kitties. I named the one I kept Samantha.

You got a perfect pair of Kitlers there!

Glad Lucy is doing good :o)
