I'm not seeing anything. First time I've seen a post in this forum with absolutely nothing in it.

Vinny
I had seen this earlier a few days ago. And, now again. But not when I went back to it tonight or after I quoted it.

Re. the picture of the masked family: The caption is EXTREMELY racist - how dare they call it the "Spanish" flu? We should exhume the graves and rocket remaining remains residue rapidly into space in a Tesla Model X.

That's the second photo of a masked cat that's been posted. Looks hilarious...but it HAS to be photoshopped! What cat wouldn't have that thing off in about a nanosecond?

Smith, this is the puurrrfect opportunity to train your cat! Clicker training, or just try this to get them used to claw clipping. You start by just touching a paw and giving a treat, then introduce the clippers, then clippers plus extending a claw, then snip a claw. One of my cats is really good about claw clipping now. I just show him the scissors and he lies down (he gets a treat for that). Then he charges a fee of one treat per claw. The other cat lets me clip two paws at a time for the low, low price of one treat per session.

I taught my cats to sit on command and come when their names are called, back when they were kittens and I was desperate for anything to distract them from destroying $90 Apple power cords. I still have the clicker. Would be fun to see if they would do that again!

I think so too, even though the Chinese one is real. (There's a rare sentence). It was for pollution.

Actually, I'm the one that posted about clipping resistance, but I was reminded by Smith's photo, as the claws are fully out. As far as I can tell, Smith's cat Lily *has* been clipped. Those claws don't look sharp.

Ok, I'll work on mine this weekend. I have heard that it helps to hold them in a towel, and I'll incorporate your idea of a treat. Got some Temptations handy.

Lily indeed does get regular claw trimmings. And she uses them!

When you're petting her and walk away too soon, she chases you and swipes at your ankles. ;D

This could have gone in either the dog or cat Topic but I had to pick one....

Just picked up this book to read: https://smile.amazon.com/Our-Wild-Calli ... l_huc_item

Back cover review states: "Reconnecting with animals is a remedy for much of what ails modern life, including loneliness and boredom."

Took a stray to the vet to see if she needs to be spayed, $100 for vaccines and exam and they couldnt tell. Is that right?

Perhaps you need to vet the vet and see if they are a vet, er, an, .... next time. :)

If the vet has a notch in her ear, that means she has a real degree.

Now that I go back and look at it, DEFINITELY!

Look at big those blacks are!

Earlier today I was holding my beloved Mink and she was just luxuriating in it. I then noticed that her blacks were the tiniest slits that they could be. She could not possibly have been any more content and relaxed.
