Alyssa’s Moo

Jan 18th, 2009 | By Mable | Category: Lead Story

I just sent you a picture from my phone to your e-mail. It’s a picture of my cat, Moo. Pretty much in the picture, it’s just my cat sleeping. He’s so cute. Okay, and the 2nd picture I sent you is of my cat. He loved to get in the box, thinking he was invisible [...]



Knock Three Times

Nov 25th, 2008 | By Mable | Category: Lead Story, Tee Tramp

One day I was sitting in my recliner, reading or watching television or something that diverted my attention from TeeTramp. Suddenly, I felt three hard taps on my arm. She was standing beside my chair, and had reached up to tap me because she wanted out NOW. There was something outside that had caught her [...]



Tee’s Cat Toys

Jul 20th, 2008 | By Mable | Category: Lead Story

This picture shows a very docile Tee Tramp. I assure you that is not always the case. See that gray t-shirt beside her? And the green fabric string? When my husband comes home, they become Tee’s toys. The t-shirt becomes the “t-shirt of death”, and if you look closely, you can see drops of my [...]



My Cat, The Comforter

Jul 8th, 2008 | By Mable | Category: Lead Story, Tee Tramp

My husband likes to go on long motorcycle trips, and I usually stay behind. I love motorcycle riding, but long trips often interfere with my schedule one way or the other. And no matter how many times he goes, I never quite get used to his absence. Last night he’d been gone five nights, and [...]



Door Dance

Jun 28th, 2008 | By Mable | Category: Featured Articles, Hiss, Hiss, Spit, Spit

I can’t decide if our two cats like each other or not. One minute they’re laying on the floor, facing each other, about four feet apart. The next they are hissing and spitting. There are blows exchanged, but no battle scars so I doubt their ferocity.
One of the funniest things they do I call [...]



Cat Dreams Nightmares

Jun 27th, 2008 | By Mable | Category: Cat Naps, Miss Kitty

I don’t know Miss Kitty’s past. She came to us at the age of six months and her personality was so different from our last cat. He was always with us whereas she would disappear for days on end. He would lay on the couch and sleep with me. She came in to eat, then [...]



Nursery Cat

Jun 3rd, 2008 | By Mable | Category: Featured Articles, Frisky

Frisky is my husband’s nursery cat. As a very young kitten, she was dumped at his place of employment, a nursery specializing in pine trees. Unlike our other two cats, she never comes to our home and she enjoys large crowds of people. During lifting season, the time of year when the young trees are [...]



Halloween Cat

Jun 3rd, 2008 | By Mable | Category: Featured Articles, Miss Kitty

Miss Kitty came to us after the death of Tramp, a very noble dude cat. I just felt something was missing from my life, asked my friend for a cat, and vavoom, there she was. Her hair is black and gold, a tortoise shell as the vet calls her. Because of her coloring, my [...]



Tee Tramp And The Roomba

May 24th, 2008 | By Mable | Category: Featured Articles, Tee Tramp, The Cat's Meow

This morning I was working on my Saturday chores and thinking about a story for this website. My Roomba vacuum cleaner systematically cleaned my floor as I loaded the dishwasher. Roomba is made by iRobot and is now my new best friend. Cleaning floors has always been a chore I avoided, and recently while pushing [...]



Dreamed Cat Died

May 18th, 2008 | By Mable | Category: Cat Naps

When I was in high school I had a cat I loved dearly. One night I dreamed the cat was talking to me about heaven, telling me how wonderful it was. I asked, “Does this mean I’m going to heaven”? The cat replied, “No, I am”.
The next day my mom called me and said, “I’ve [...]
