I'm ordering a custom bendy pin

Here at the event is a vendor who does custom jewelry from a photograph/file. I'm thinking of getting a bendy pin made from this picture.
wondering if any of his fans would be interested in purchasing one. I have to wait to get a price quote, but pls msg me if you are interested.

Re: One week old kitten born with twisted back legs

twisty back legs seem to be my theme for the year. I would suggest every day doing some gentle physical therapy with him. Bend the leg at the joints and move the legs as much as possible through walking motions. This will help build muscles correctly. It is slow work, but starting so young is a huge...

He'd sit on the chair next to me and wait hopefully, sometimes patting me lest I forget. It makes me sad to eat teh shrimpies myself. So, I b...

Re: as requested, picts of Ereshkigal

What a pretty girl...do you think she could teach Panda to type? she knows how to use the stereo, no joke. i've seen her hit the play button on the CD player, and after a few songs come back and turn it off. sometimes she turns it on the middle of the night. anything electronic fascinates ehr and h...

Re: Cherry is home!

well, there IS a steam cleaner, fortunatley for her i am too lazy to use it often. She has shown that she can get up and down off the bed just fine, she seems to prefer it there, maybe because the cats who typically hang out on the bed don't keep trying to wash her. darn those friendly cats! she ten...

Re: Cherry is home!

Cherry had a good day. the cats kept coming over to say hello and wash her. she was more amiable towards them but did hiss a little bit. she seems to be getting the point that they WILL be friendly even if they are strangers. She found a great hidey cave in teh hallway, it has been a hideycave for o...

Re: Cherry is home!

As she is a black tortie i found myself calling her 'black cherry' this quickly morphed into a drink I grew up on called Black Cherry Wisniak.

so, who here can tell me what that is WITHOUT googling it ?
it will also give you an idea of where i grew up.

Re: Ereshkigal has some residual nerve damage

i'm not finding any one spot that is point tender on her leg, no sign of discharge or outward injury, and with her history of muscle tear i'm inclined to think she has aggravated it again. but who knows, she is one wierd case. the swelling has gone down some, she is eating/drinking/pottying fine. sh...
