Carol? Don't know how you'd get the idea I thought you weren't "serious about ... kitten death." I appreciated your reply, along with everyone's. Didn't have time to acknowledge each one.

I see I'm just in time!

when it's too early in the morning
but you can't get back to sleep
check on ONT chatter
you'll soon be snoozing deep

...unless you start chatting, too...

Hi, folks. Just passing by on my way back from the bathroom. Wake me again when Vic news starts posting, mmmkay?

I bring this for the buffet, a belated Thanksgiving contribution:

Value systems. Yours, mine, probably include bits like "don't take what's not yours." Some folks' "values" are … not like ours.

“It’s not a joke, I’m sorry. It’s not about intentionality(?) This is somebody else’s property, not even yours. And, you’re volunteering too. You’re not even being paid… It’s unacceptable. It’s diabolical. It’s sinful.”

(Ferguson protester screaming at volunteer Oathkeepers guarding property.)

Mind, boggled. This inverted value system is what we're really up against. A whole 'nother world-view.

Woke up this morning to the last gasps of our littlest cat, Faithful. At least we could be with her before her lights went out.

Been lurking every day, left a couple of comments; intended to leave more links, but, I keep getting distracted.

Condolences on the loss of Faithful. I lost two kittehs within a year, Kette (who died on the anniversary of Pearl Harbor last year) and Diana, who died at the end of July. I have two younger kittehs now, but I still miss the senior ladies who were 16 and 18 when they passed. And I've seen a number of my friends through pet loss (kittehs, doggehs, and a birdeh) over the past several years. It's never easy, but as my friends say, there is some comfort in knowing that the pet had a good life with its human family, and remembering all the joy that the beloved pet brought to its humans.

So sorry on the loss of your darling kitty -so sad to lose one of our little friends

My oldest one is now 20 years old and I'm almost taking her pulse and checking her respirations in the morning these days...

I'm very sorry Mindful Webworker.

It brought back memory of my father, today would be his 94th birthday, being too upset & letting my mother drive. That wasn't done in family.

I've lost four cats too.

Thanks, folks, for the condolences & nice replies about the cat. Still in shock.

Carol? asked if she was on in years. Maybe ten, not terribly old; she was adult when she adopted my son. This just happened suddenly, Milady said she had poor breathing last night; she could barely breathe when I found her this morning.

Now, to feed the living....

Sorry about Faithful, MWW I know some people here are not cat people (I am) but I think most of us know the heartbreak of loving a family member-whether it's a feline or canine variety. It hurts!. Condolences to your family. Faithful was along in years? Several years ago we buried a cat that was 16. If the church door was open she would often come in. She would even attend meetings that I didn't particularly want to go to. I often thought of adding her to the membership list. If I had a new member-"Cleopatra" who outside the church know the difference? ;^).

Thank God for faithful friends and Faithful.

My condolences, mindful.

Faithful, medium-haired black kitty, extra small.

Walked up to my son at a gas station years ago, saying, take me in. Funny little cat with one folded-over ear. Really liked my son.

Faithful just died, right before sunrise, minutes ago, Milady & I helplessly attending.

Going to be hard to break this to my son. She may have been staying with us, but she was his kitty.

Goodbye, Faithful.

There are those who seek truth.
Others gladly hate the truth.
Those dedicated to the Lie
seem to have drops all pretense.
They don't just shade the truth,
They don't nuance the lies with truthiness,
They say anything, make up anything,
And would destroy anyone
just to propagate the Lie.

The war in heaven on earth is getting hotter.

Morning, Glories!

Morning, ye stale overnight thread occupants. The cleaning crew is here. Any bodies to report? (Checks the barrel-... gags)

It was that bit at the end, "that’s a bad angle There. That's better." that got me to finally check out the original post, which I recommend anyone do.

Thanks for posting this.

One item: "..seen here preparing for battle in line outside the Vatican..." lost the strike-out on your text copy.

Vic: "Today is Tuesday, December 02, 2014."

Either Vic has taken up residence in the past or my cell is from the future. If we can't trust Vic on the date...

2nd day in a row; someone reboot the Vic clock.
