Molly (RIP)
A month after Leona adopted Emily from the Humane Society for us, my parents and I went on vacation to Las Vegas. When we came home, we discovered that my youngest sister Pam's boyfriend had given her a kitten. My mom wasn't happy to say the least! We already had a cat and she didn't want another one. But Molly was such a sweet little kitten, that she won her over. She was a clever little thing, always getting into everything and once she grew up, she discovered how to open sliding doors. At the time, the cats were kept out in the patio since I had a parakeet that lived in a cage in my bedroom. Molly would open the sliding screen door between the kitchen and the patio, sneek in, and knock the parakeet cage down to the floor! She also opened cabinets and the sliding doors of the closets so we had to add hooks to the doors. She got very sick when she was seven and the vet discovered she had feline leukemia. Since she never went outside, the vet thinks that her mother probably passed it on to her. We had our other cats tested since they all shared the food and water bowls and Blackie and Molly would groom each other but luckily the other cats were okay. Molly went to the Bridge on September 18, 1997 but I still remember the mischief she got into with a smile.Wednesday, December 27, 2006

Formerly Feral Friday
January 3rd will be the 10-year-anniversary of Bebe's Gotcha Day. He was a stray kitten found on the day that Michael Jackson performed at the Aloha Stadium so his original name was Mikey. He wasn't quite weaned yet so he had to be bottle-fed for a few weeks. When he started biting holes in the bottle nipples, we knew he was ready for solid food. He's my sister Lynette's cat and lived for awhile with Lynette and her boyfriend. Frank started calling him Bebe since he was such a little baby and the name stuck. When Frank sold the house and moved into an apartment that didn't allow pets, Bebe came to live with us. Here are the few photographs that I have of Bebe as a kitten.Thursday, December 21, 2006

At Christmastime they like to dress up the woofies in costooms and walk arownd Waikiki and the toorists luv to take pikchurs wiff them.

Bebe Has a Problem!
Effury Wenzday, Aunty Lynette's woofie Sammie, spends the day here. But becuz she goes walking owtside, she gets fleez and then she gives the fleez to US!The Lady saw us scratching and when she combed Pumpkin, she fownd fleez! She combed me and Tiger too but dint find any on us. I gess they liked Pumpkin best cuz he'z yung and joosy but the Lady sed if one kitty gets fleez, then all the kitties need to get flee medicine. So two weeks ago she putted the medicine on us. AND IT MADE MINE FUR FALL OFF!
I haff a BALD SPOT on the bak of mine nek rite where the medicine went. I don't know why cuz she used the same stuff on us in Octobur and mine fur dint fall off THEN. It'z not fare! Nobody else's fur fell off! At least if Pumpkin's fur fell off, wiff his long fur, he cood do a comb offur until it grew back. Has this happened to any othur kitty? The medicine the Lady used is Advantage but what's the advantage of haffing a cold nek?
