pigtails

Nice taste in music there...

My parents have a cat whose previous humans declawed his front paws. Since he doesn't have claws, he pummels when he kneads, trying desperately to leave bruises if he can't leave scratch marks or shread your shirt/blouse.

Ouch.

If you can find them, I recommend these songs:

Richard Shindell's "Are You Happy Now?"
The Clarks' "On Saturday"

They tell me that 12 feet is fine for a cat. Anything less than about 20 feet or more than 50 feet. On shorter falls, cats crouch and land on their feet. On longer falls, they spreadeagle and wind resistance slows them to about 25 mph and they land splayed without injury. Cats sometimes go out of 60th floor apartment windows and land just fine. It's those 3rd and 4th floor window falls, where they don't realize to spreadeagle until too late that kill cats. Unfortunately for humans, wind resistance only slows us to about 75 mph, at which speed the landing tends to suck.

My cat Betsy and SZ's cats have been feuding for nearly 9 months since we all moved in together. Not long ago, they wouldn't be on the same floor of the house without the fur flying. But today I woke up to Cappy sleeping by my head, Betsy by my knees, and Petta on the desk chair. It was the first time Betsy and another cat were on the bed together.

SZ missed it, as she's working 2 12-hr overnight shifts in a row. I saw her Monday before I left for work, not at all yesterday, 10 minutes today as I came home from work and she left, and I'll next see her Friday night when I get home. Yep, marital bliss.

Congrats on your new place and Happy Birthday! I'd forgotten we're only a week apart. I hope you had a fun day.

i think i need a squishy to keep me company right now, a not so bright cat is better than no cat at this point

oh and
glad to hear you're feeling better, you seem to have your head in the right place with pema (which i have not been so good at keeping up with since the move)

oh and lastly
happy belated birthday (it's been a long while since i've been online, too much real life with the move and therapy and work and well, life)

metta

I havent read Moby Dick in like 10 years, and that is a fitting passage for sure.

I don't know that it gets any better than that...the pictures, the audio, the spoken word...all wrapped in one. Thanks for bringing that to the Photography forum.
