This is my cat Stupid Cat. In this picture he is dead. The next day he came back to life and bit me.

I left him at home this weekend while I went to Virginia. He showed me how much he missed me by curling up at my feet and biting me. Twice. Then I threw him back outside.

This is a cry for help. Your cat has an unreasonable desire to learn to fly. A few sweeping swings around your head, whilst maintaining a firm grip of the cat's tail, then...release the tail while said feline is facing any direction and voila.
One flying cat.
One of my favorite games with young felines is "Toss The Kitty". This may of course explain some of the biting. And the stupidity.

Our son, Jake, girlfriend, Amy, has Katie. She's a wonderful spaniel mix, a great dog. Harley and Katie had a big 2 days here. Unfortunately, Katie has hip displacer (sp ?). Katie was really sore from playing so much with Harley yesterday. Amy didn't bring her meds. I goggled aspirin for dogs. It would be ok to give her one but the site also showed Melocoxicam, generic for Mobic, was highly recommended. I am on Melocoxicam. We gave Katie one. This morning, she felt great. Amy is going to see if her vet will order some for Katie. It will be so much cheaper then the med she is on now for arthritics.

I like the idea of "our pet people" sharing ideas for their care, stories and general information. If anyone else is interested. Lets post. :O3
I'm curious about Katie's prescription that was so expensive. Was it Rimadyl?
I don't know. I'll ask when I talk to Amy.

Could your Black Tri Aussie give lessons to Georgia (a.k.a. Sunny J's Blue Devil Went Down to Georgia), our Black Tri Aussie girl? Wonderfully obedient? Does your Aussie steal pizza like ours does? :O3

I didn't know Georgia was a Black Tri! She's gorgeous. I'm not sure if Rider could help with obedience, that was all Kelly. I'm sure Rider would steal pizza if he's given the chance, but we try to keep all of the foods out of reach because he will go after them. His favorite is bread. I came home one day and found a 3 lb. bag of flour torn open in the living room. There was flour everywhere. Worst of all, Rider had it all over his face and in his gums, it was like a dough at that point. What a freakin mess to clean up!

I second that! :O3

I wish I had decent pictures here of my two, Merlin the Rescue Hound and Countess Sasha von Barketta the mini-Schnauzer with the million-dollar bladder. I will have to check my home computer.

Lavabe, Georgia the Wonder Dog is lovely, too. I got a lump in my throat when y'all posted her greeting you on your return from Madagascar. :O3

Miles, I saw Rider, and was just stunned as to how much variety the Black Tris really have. Given the lack of tan, I thought on first glance that Rider was a border collie. You have a REALLY nice Aussie!!

The only trick I do with Georgia is when I come home from work, I ask her to "Tell me about your day." She jumps up to my bed, opens her mouth, and assumes the "pet me like mad" pose. :-BD
