Catch the kitties using your mouse, or they will die :(

(Don't let a kitty fall to the ground, it makes a horrible mess!)

Emjoy!

Are you aware of how much area of the floor a pint of water contained in a vase can cover, when it has been knocked over? I know!


Yes, sadly I have first hand knowledge of this as well. Much as I love flowers, I've had to put vases up high and out of reach of Stinky - too high to properly enjoy the flowers. She is a naughty kitty, but we love her anyway.


No, that time is over where someone could please me with giving me a bunch of flowers, or I could buy one myself for my own pleasure. First, the cat will eat the flowers and the green and get sick and throw up, and second, I can mop up water from the table and the floor all the time. I have at times, when someone actually gave me a bunch of flowers because they wanted to please me and didn't know better, put the vase on the floor just to save myself for the trouble of cleaning the table for water. Or I have put a bunch of flowers on the top of my book shelf, so I only could see it from below. The last bunch of flowers I got was some very fine long-stemmed roses, I'll bet they have cost a fortune, and then I could enjoy watching them from below.

Flowers for me is really a waste of money, thanks to the little furry princess I live with!

30 years ago, I showed up at Lori's place with a vase of flowers....

Her BF at the time did not appreciate the gesture, and sent the vase whistling past my head at about 140mph to the wall in back of me......

It was such a pretty vase too......

Uhhh, msattler, I don't think my boyfriend would appreciate it either if some guy showed up at my place with a vase of flowers. Pretty vase or not. So, maybe you had misjudged the situation there? :-O

Well, my mistress, the furry princess, don't hurl vases with flowers, she just knocks them over. Of course she then can treat herself with a little drink of water, while it's lying there on the floor anyway, that's only a bonus for her. And the vase doesn't break, it's just knocked over.

Well...better judgment was not my strong point 30 years ago....sometimes is not still....

But I am the guy she still talks to....he hasn't been around for many years.

Our youngest, Abigail, used to LOVE going after the Xmas tree mainly to drink the water from the base--last year we put a pen around the tree to keep her out....however this year she's totally left it alone. Now if she'd stop ringing her bell to go out at 2am I'd be thrilled.

That works for small dogs too, My relatives did that cause Barnum likes to chew on things, Bailey on the other hand doesn't. And I kid You not on their names.

The bell now has rung........the time now is here.

It's Christmas Eve, folks.........at least it is here.......

The time for all souls to embrace....
The time, and the spirit, and the true love of God.......

His son that he sent us.......who gave his human life for us all......
That we might be lifted up unto him.

I know that at times, I have been a bad caretaker of his Word.......

I have cursed here to you, and at times been a burden.
But please see my soul, as I wish to see yours.....

The kitties and I love you all.......there's no words......
To express how I feel.....both my love and remorse.
That I cannot always be what you wish for of course.

But the kitties and I, on this most Holy of eves,
Ask you, once again, to forgive me it seems........
If my Lord does do so,, I also hope you can.....
And if not, so it be........
I just hope that my heart in your eyes you can see.

I smile now at you.......and I hope you can see.......
That I love all my friends here, and hope they forgive me.
For when I am wrong........is is bad, at it's worst.
But when I am right, I know you all care for me first.

So I smile now and wander off to sleep with my kittens......
Those wonderful creatures with whom I an smitten.'
They love me as no other, at least not on this earth.......

Only God could love me dearer.........and I think he smiles in his mirth.
And I know that my Lord can see my true worth....

I luv you all,, folks.

I hope some of you forgive me for being an arse once in a while........

And if you do not, I shall forgive you just the same.....

Merry Christmas to all and everybody here. The kitties love you, no matter what. Have a good New Years........hope it was better than my last one was......LOL......

This little bit will not make it into my top 20 poems........LOL.

My wife initially thought I was daft posting on a SETI Forum, then she discovered that people posted pics of thir Kitties on this thread. She now demands that I visit this site regularly and show her any new Kitty pics - None have been poosted for days and she is getting grumpy (not something that biodes well). So Guys (and Gals) please freshen up this thread (Mark and others) with some good Christmas Kitty pics.

Thanks

Thanks Guys. My wife is now pleased as punch (she really liked the Video Mark). I have been given permission to do a long astronomy session tonight and (weather permitting) tomorrow night - so I am pleased too.

Happy New Year to All when it comes.
