Sternn likes to pet his pussy. :D

j/k

She's a beauty. From the links you posted to your pix in the other thread, I thought you had more than one cat.

Madi, Remoe is too cute for words! I love the way his tongue sticks out. Kind of like he's saying "I don't care what you think." *insert raspberry*

I'm in love with your cat.

What an awesome cat. I need to go visit mine, now.

I love it when cats have the biggest attachment to us men. My cat Sonny still sleeps sound as a baby on my chest. He thinks I'm his dad, and well, I guess I am.

Cats are just adorable.

I had five cats in the states. Well, four, then the ex- took em, and then one, and it would cost to much to get her through customs so I left her with mates there.

The last pic with me snake spot is Sable, who looks like Maya, the cat eating terror in the middle picture, but is actually another cat altogether.

I wanted to take 'em, but didn't want to fight the ex for the ones 'we' got as they all got along great and I didn't want to break 'em up.

So I got another one, and then had to leave it.

Oh, and Harley is a he. He sounds like a Harley - purrs very loud all the time. You can hear him in the next room.

Found out today though he has round worms. How did I find out? He coughed up a mouth full. Yeah, that was nice. He's the first out-door cat I've owned, and they say it's normal until they are a year or so to get them a few times a year if they hunt alot. He hunts and kills pigeons out on the roof daily (we live on the second floor and he crawls out the window to run about on the 2 foot ledge).

Either way he came in the room with what looked like a white squid coming out of his mouth, white tentacles flailing out of his mouth. I like freaked. Though cthulu was coming out of my kitty.

Things you don't want to see while smoking a bong and watching spongebob squarepants (he lives in a pineapple under the sea) on TG4 (in Irish).

*falls out of chair laughing* That's hilarious. Did you take him to the vet?

We don't really have cat/dog vets in Ireland. Well, in most parts. We have horse vets and stuff. If ye need pet products ye go to the local pet store in the largest local towne, which I did, and got him a pill that they said will clear it up and keep him worm free fer 4 months.

So hopefully all is well and no random cthulu sightings will occur. Again. Ever.

-S

Hehe- you probably saw female roundworms, Sternn; they can grow up to six or seven inches long. At the shelter, we call them the Nasty Spaghettis (although Cthulhu is far more evocative and descriptive, as the general reaction to them is, "Ia!").

They can easily be remedied by a few doses of pyrantel pamoate (the brand name in the States is Strongid; not sure what it's called in Ireland) or other broad-spectrum dewormers such as Febantel (Drontal) or Fenbendazole (Panacur). The latter two also kill tape- hook- and whipworms. If your cat goes outdoors and hunts, he's likely got them as well.

And yeah, you need to have him checked by a vet. Anything you can buy over the counter is probably, er, shite.

As mentioned, we really don't have personal pet vets here. In Dublin, Limerick, and Cork maybe, but think of the rest of Ireland like rural parts of the state. Vets here do housecalls to deliver calves and horses.

They don't drive out to give yer cat a pill. In fact, taking a cat to the vet is pretty much unheard of.

However, like doctors and prescriptions, our laws aren't as strict as the states. The pet stores get the good stuff. This pill they gave me is in silver foil and was broke off a larger pack.

I can read:

ORM TABLET
etrinary Products, LTd.
PHEN BP 250mg

Next time I'm in Limerick I'll ask what it exact is, but yer man there that runs the place also runs a cattery (has fer years) and says he knows what hes doing.

I mean, here, if you need meds, you go to the local chemist. They give you stuff here that you only can get 'over-the-counter' in the states. Also, if it's something that needs to be injected, they hand ye a needle and the bottle and say 'there ye go'. If yer nto good at givin yerself a stick a nice chemist will help you out.

Different world here.

But cheers on that.

This is my boyfriend's dog, Angel

She's really intelligent - sometimes I could swear she understands every word I say to her! If you say "cats" or "kittens" she jumps up and runs to the window then looks up and down the street in a frenzy to find the cats! It makes me crack up when I inadvertantly say something about my cat and she instantly goes crazy! ;)

Um, this was just something silly I did the other day when I was bored: Silly wallpaper They're not my pets by the way. Soo cute though! *melts*

Ooooh, way too cute for me to handle! Angel is adorable, looking at her makes me regret ever sending back my Bijoux! *sniff* Those pets make sucha cute couple! * melts in a puddle with Deviant Kitten*

*melts*

That's so adorable.

i got my son a new kitten a few weeks back.
we called him gargamel and yes he hunts the smurfs in my front yard.
when my lappy is fixed i'll post some piccies.

No no, you have to call him Azriel. That's the cat's name. :D

Thanks Queenofdarkness and Korova! It's the kitten "kissing" the puppy, while the puppy looks kinda worried that really makes me giggle and melt simultaneously :D

Ooh, yes post pics please!! I love kitten pics! :)

Gargamel's cat?! I love the smurfs. :D You just took me back!


and I totally missed mortalius' post. oops. but anyway smurf <3

My stinky friend, Jake. He is a major loaf (I have no idea where he gets it from *sheepish grin*)

most likely, yes

Jake just got into the garbage. Naughty little bastard is getting the cold shoulder. (I still love him though)

hmm my sister's cats are fond of doing that. grrrrr I detest cats at times. Other times they're just so fucking cool.
