1: Kibble Nibble: mewsings from the food bowl (editorial)
 
Hi, Cat-loving Home-Business PURRSons,
 
After setting a record (over two months) with daily temperatures
above 70, and absolutely *no* rain--huh?  Am I really talking
about the Seattle area?  Yup, we actually had summer this year.
 
Now we're back to the more normal weather around here which has
certainly let us know in no uncertain terms, that it is no longer
summer, even if the official date has yat not arrived.
 
One rather unexpected result--Jaspur has quieted his "I want out!
Let me out!  I'm getting out if it's the last thing I do!  If you
don't let me out I'll sneak out!"  and so on,  rant.
 
Now, this is interesting.  He truly is a smart cat, but did he
*really* know I was just now writing about him?  As I put those
words down, he meowed.  I wouldn't be surprised; he's such a
smart kitty!
 
Just last night, he was yowling and I whispered to him asking him
 
to use his "quiet kitty voice."  He did so for one meow, just to
 
let me know that he knew what I meant but wasn't about to do it,
 
lol.  Ornery one, Jaspur.
smart kitty!

Approximately 500,000 tons of liquid cleaners are washed down

are known to be acutely toxic in large doses. Others have been

2: Kitten Kabootle's Kubbyhole (catly writings)
 
Definitely Not the Cat's Meow,
part 2
 
by Lauren Merryfield
 
Okay, it is still more than a month until Halloween, and many
readers laugh at the predictable "watch out for your black cats
around Halloween; be sure to keep them indoors" routine.  And
here I go on my indoor cat rant and it's not even October!
 
What has me riled up now is that there have been three mutilated
cats found in peoples' back yards in our area to the extent that
some cat-loving folks finally got the news media involved.  They
stated that the police would not take them seriously, so now they
were asking the news media and the public to take them seriously.
 
Some of these people showed up at a neighborhood high school with
pamphlets and word of mouth, believing that the culprit might be
a teenage student at the high school.  He was said not to be the
guilty one by the end of the day.
 
I heard commentary on the radio; it was on TV; and the newspapers
carried reports on the subject.
 
However, I noticed that though they went on and on about how
awful it was; how horrible for the families to come home to find
their pet deceased; how this had been going on for 21 years and
no one could stop it; how the culprit was not human, coyotes were
to blame, since they disembowel cats quite routinely.  Yes, the
tirade went on and on, for days, weeks, who knows how long it
will continue.
 
*However*, and this is the point of my rant, not once in *any* of
these commentary settings did anyone even *once* suggest that
people keep their cats indoors!  Evidently, to far too many, cats
are just not valuable enough to be protected in their residences
as are human family members. Cats are considered second-class
citizens, at best.
 
Your editor became so PURRturbed by this lack of respect and
consideration given to the feline population, that she emailed
radio stations and local newspapers being guilty of the omission.
The radio station we like best did reply immediately, stating
that the point was well-taken and they would add the suggestion
of keeping cats indoors to their news brief.
 
The strange set of circumstances regarding second-class treatment
of cats continued rearing it's ugly head after the first
installment of this series (see August edition of CATLINES.)
 
My husband and I were shopping during a weekend trip, coming
across a rack of humorous bumper stickers.  As Jim began reading
them aloud to me, I realized I had heard some, but the new ones
brought on fresh laughter.
 
However, I did take notice of the differences in the dog quotes
and cat quotes.  The dog-related bumper stickers referred to
 
"Man's best friend," and "I can't stand humans anymore, I prefer
the company of my dog."
 
The cat bumper stickers, however painted a much "lesser-than" set
of messages:
 
"Cats--the other white meat."  "If you can't find your lost cat,
look under my tires."
 
What?
 
I felt so incensed that I turned to walk out, Jim right behind
me.
 
I understand that people have personal preferences and that
dog-lovers are just as adamant as we cat-lovers are about the
preference of their choice, however, I had not consciously
realized how demoralizing some people are toward cats, as
compared to how dogs are generally regarded.
 
Sure, I knew kids worked on cat brains in biology class
(something my daughter *really* did not want to do)I also am
aware that too many experiments are done on cats who have been
killed as part of the experiment.
 
I've read, on numerous occasions, that one early sign of a future
serial killer is cat mutilation.
 
It seems that all this is coming together into one horrible stew
that is, indeed, *not* the cat's meow!
 
Oh, and one other thing!  I've read all five of the Harry Potter
books, and find them totally fascinating.  However, the author
seems not to like cats very well either.  The characterization of
Mrs. Norris, for example.  I've noticed other uncatly remarks
therein and a possible preference for dogs--consider Padfoot.
 
.......
 
When I was young, most of our cats lived outdoors and they came
and went on their own schedule and many lived quite abbreviated
lives.  This was the norm.  It was as if this being the norm made
it okay.
 
This was years ago!  In my adulthood my immediate family's cats
have been indoor cats, though Jaspur does his daily soliloquy
about how he is not a house-cat and never wants to be referred to
as one and the "let me out," rant, mentioned above.
 
Sometimes I feel guilty trapping him when entrapment is one of my
worst dislikes and fears.  However, he is still with us!
 
I apologize to anyone of my readers who does keep cats outdoors.
It is probably none of my business.  When it comes to the media,
though, every report omitting the suggestion, now that really
bothers me!
 
Now that I have emailed, and done my "indoor cats rant," I will,
laugh as you might, remind people to be especially wary of
mistreatment of black cats around Halloween time, and, possibly
all year!
 
Yes, it's predictable.  Every year when Halloween draws near,
just as Linus stands there in the pumpkin patch, waiting for the
Great Pumpkin  to rise up out of the pumpkin patch, bringing
presents to boys and girls, I will make my "keep your cats
indoors" reminder.
 
Why, you ask?
 
Because, I love cats!

CHOOSING A VET FOR YOUR CAT
 
By Astrid Bullen
 
Choosing the right veterinarian for your cat is as hard as
picking out a competent doctor for yourself. It is a process
of trial and error, and it should be taken seriously to ensure
quality care for your cat. Before you bring your new cat or
kitten home, find a vet who suits you. Your new arrival should
be examined as soon as possible after bringing him home, and he
also has to be vaccinated and neutered (or spayed in the case of
females).
 
You must feel comfortable and confident in the veterinarian you
choose. If you've just moved to a new area and don't know a lot
of people, you may have to resort to your telephone directory.
You can obtain a lot of important information such as hours and
location from the yellow pages. The Internet is also a valuable
tool. Animal newsgroups, chat rooms and websites all provide
information about feline resources. Consider a feline-exclusive
veterinarian - a vet that only works with cats - if there's one
in your area.
 
Once you've narrowed your search, call the veterinary office and
ask to meet and briefly talk with the veterinarian. Some
guidelines to keep in mind when selecting a vet are:
 
Find out what services the clinic offers, and if it can refer you
to a specialist if needed.
 
Inquire about the clinic's emergency services.
 
Talk with friends and other pet owners in the area and ask for a
recommendation. This is the best way to find a trustworthy
veterinarian for your cat. If your kitten is purebred, the breeder
you bought it from may be able to recommend a good veterinarian.
 
Check to see that the clinic's hours are compatible with your
schedule. Do you need a vet who is available on Saturdays or has
late office hours at least once a week?
 
Try to pick a clinic that is close to your work or home. Visit
Locate a Vet to find one near you.
 
After you call, visit the clinic before you make an appointment
for your cat, and learn about the hospital's philosophy and
policies. This is a reasonable request that any vet should be
glad to oblige. Ask yourself:
 
Do I feel comfortable communicating with the veterinarian?
 
Is the receptionist warm and friendly? Does the staff seem
knowledgeable and helpful?
 
Is the clinic clean and comfortable?
 
Do the animals in the clinic seem well-cared for?
 
Do the fees seem reasonable?
 
Does the office offer a payment plan? Do they accept credit
cards?
 
Will the veterinarian offer advice over the phone so that I don't
have to make unnecessary appointments?
 
Are location and parking convenient?
 
Are appointments required?
 
How many veterinarians are in the practice?
 
Are there technicians and other professional staff members?
 
Are dog and cat cages in separate areas?
 
Some veterinary hospitals are members of the American Animal
Hospitals Association (AAHA). AAHA membership signifies that the
veterinary hospital has voluntarily pursued and met AAHA's
standards in the areas of facility, equipment and quality care.
Other veterinarians are board certified in a particular area of
veterinary medicine such as ophthalmology, surgery, or
cardiology, which means they studied an additional two to four
years in the specialty area and passed a rigorous examination.
 
Some veterinarians have excellent communications skills, and can
discuss details of the visit with great empathy. Consider that
your cat cannot speak for himself, and choose your vet with love
and care.

Accepting The Hard Stuff
 - by Sibyl McLendon
 
I have said it before and I will say it again: life is tricky.
 
Just when we think we have it all arranged, all our ducks in a
row and that everything is great, the Universe will dig a big
hole right in our path for us to fall into. Most of the time
we don't have a clue, we are caught totally unaware and we hit
bottom. Hard.
 
When we do fall in, we have two immediate choices: lay there or
crawl out.
 
I know the temptation to just lay there, wondering what happened
and feeling sorry for ourselves is tremendous. It is always
easier to do nothing. That is one of Sir Isaac Newton's laws:
a body at rest tends to stay at rest unless acted upon by an
external force.
 
But, we need to create our own `external force', crawl out of the
hole and go on. The alternative is honestly more painful than
getting out of the hole will ever be. If we just stay put, we are
opening ourselves up for pain and depression, and they will be
with us until we take the necessary steps to move on.
 
How to create that force is the issue. The best first step I can
offer is to accept that sometimes, things just happen. There is
always a reason for it but you may never know what that reason
was. Just because you fell in the hole does not mean you are a
bad person or a stupid person.
 
It means you're human.
 
The second step is realizing that being human means that you will
make mistakes. Everyone does, even the best and brightest, the
smartest and the most successful.
 
The difference between them and the average person is how they
view the world and the decisions they make when they are lying at
the bottom of the hole.
 
Those people see mistakes as lessons and adversity as
opportunity.
 
Next, you must learn that how you view `the hole' determines how
long you will stay in it. It is difficult for some people to
learn, but each and every one of us has total control over how we
will act and react to adversity. Consciously or subconsciously,
we control our every thought and emotion. Many people believe
that they are simply helpless victims to their emotions and
thoughts, and this belief keeps them stuck in every hole they
fall into.
 
When you can see life as just an institute of higher education,
you then can view setbacks as lessons and mistakes as tests to be
taken. You learn and you move on. When you have achieved this,
there isn't a hole anywhere that can hold you for long!

Featured Article: "Ya Gotta Have Faith!"
 
Hey Lauren ...
 
Most people don't talk about this aspect
of starting your own business...
 
It takes faith.
 
You heard me right: Starting a business
takes a certain degree of faith.
 
You see, very few people who start
their own businesses "know" for certain
whether their ventures will be successful
or not.
 
Hundreds, if not thousands of million dollar
product ideas are conceived in the minds of
PEOPLE JUST LIKE YOU every day.
 
Yet only a miniscule percentage of these people
ever ACT on their ideas, for a variety of reasons.
 
...But the # 1 reason that great ideas are
not acted upon is a LACK OF FAITH.
 
The main problem certainly isn't money. Let me
illustrate: Let's say you came up with a product
that cost $10,000 to create and bring to market,
yet you KNEW for certain that the product would
make you a minimum of 1 million dollars...
 
Even if you were completely broke, would you
NOT do everything in your power to come
up with that $10,000?! You'd BEG your
friends and family, you'd go to every bank
you know, you'd save like crazy, you'd cash
out your 401k - SOMEHOW you would come up with
the money!
 
The main problem is not motivation either...Let's
say you KNEW for certain that, with a reasonable
amount of effort - say, working 9 hour days with
weekends off for a period of 4-5 years - that
you'd become "certifiably wealthy" by the
end of that period...Wouldn't that be enough
motivation for you to get off your butt and
MAKE IT HAPPEN?! ...I should hope so! ;-)
 
I could go on with illustrations, but I think
you get the idea. You can rarely if ever be 100%
certain that the business or product ideas you
conceive of are going to be profitable...
 
So at some point, you've GOT to take a risk.
You've got to have FAITH. You've got to GO
FOR IT! ...IF you truly wish to be successful.
 
The other option is sitting on your ideas
rather than acting upon them, because you're
"just not sure whether the idea is right".
(...This is the path that MOST people choose,
and the reason that MOST people never fully
realize their awesome potential for success.)
 
OR (and this is what prevented my own success
for a period of years), you have just enough
faith to get started in pursuing one of
your business ideas - only to quit without
seeing things through to the finish (because
somewhere along the lines you lost faith
and excitement in your idea).
 
...Success requires *enough* faith not
only to get you started - but ALSO to see
you through to the point where you've given
your idea *everything you've got*. This means
succeed or fail, you see things through to
the finish. And if you fail, you pick right
back up again and move onto the next idea!!
 
The fact is, chances are your first business
venture or idea will "fail". But one failure
does not equal a LOSS. You learn from your
mistakes, and apply them toward the next
venture.
 
And eventually, as long as you keep the faith,
you WILL succeed. Believe it!
 
Here for Your Success,
 
-Bryan Winters

4: look what the cat dragged in
 
(note:Yeah, this is about a dog, but it's funny anyway)
 
The dog was having muscular pain and stiffness. The owners
decided it could be condition similar to fibro...only they
called it Fidomyalgia!!!!!
 
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
 
 No. It's not a cat it's...
    An un-programmable animal.
    A four footed allergen.
    A hair relocation expert.
    A treat-seeking missile.
    A lap-warmer with a built-in buzzer.
    A small, furry lap fungus.

(note: This might be particularly "helpful, lol" for those of you
near the oncoming of Isabel)
 
To tell the weather, go to your back door and look for the dog.
 
If the dog is at the door and he is wet, it's probably raining.
 
But if the dog is standing there really soaking wet, it is
probably raining really hard.
 
If the dog's fur looks like it's been rubbed the wrong way, it's
probably windy.
 
If the dog has snow on his back, it's probably snowing.
 
Of course, to be able to tell the weather like this, you have to
leave the dog outside all the time, especially if you expect bad
weather.
 
Sincerely,
 
The CAT

5: from Outside the catbox
 
Hi, especially to our new readers.  I have been receiving emails
from subscribers that say "ad for CATLINES" in the subject and
then a blank message.  Excuse me, I cannot place an ad unless you
send it, however, please read above regarding our free ad board
where free ads may be placed.
 
I was receiving too many ads that sounded scammy or spammy to me
and the cats and they didn't pass our standards.  (Gabrielle is
particularly picky in what is good dumpster material, which make
good toys, wherever they come from, and which are those to pass
on to me.)  Thanks.
 
BIZLINES does publish all free ads sent in to those who are
subscribed, therefore, joining both of our ezines might be of
great help to you.  Thanks.
