Am I the crazy cat lady?

rosegardens @rosegardens (3032) • United States 21 Feb 10

Hello fellow pet owners. I have 5 of the cutest, most adorablist little varmints ever, at least I think so. :D I talk to them all the time, I tell them how pretty their belly is when I am petting them and I mew back at them when...

Kate1950 Well, if you are the crazy cat lady that must make me a lunatic! I have 6 cats (and 2 dogs), and my critters all get along most of the time. Each one of my cats have a totally different personality. 2 of them are 'special needs' babies, with one that has...

How did you feel when your first pet died?

reco13 @reco13 (605) • Philippines 21 Mar 10

I still remember the time I had my first pet. It was a puppy. I treated it like a friend. I never fail to bathe it, feed, and many more. I was still young then and I thought that dogs last their lives as if until I am grown up. It...

Kate1950 I remember when I had to have my cat put to sleep because she was quite old and getting sick with kidney disease. This little girl was my best friend for 18 years, and went through a lot of life experiences with me, both good and bad. When I had to make that...

Why do you think God does not answer all our prayers?

candyfairy21 @candyfairy21 (2039) • Philippines 23 Mar 10

Have you seen Bruce Almighty? I'm thinking what if God switched places with me like He did with Bruce every time I keep reminding Him about my unanswered prayer? What would I do if I were to take his place and God takes a...

Kate1950 I believe that God does take all our questions into consideration, but sometimes the answers we get aren't quite what we want! There is a life plan for all of us that God has already worked out and whether or not we stick to the plan is up to us. I wouldn't...

Big house versus small house!

vanny @vandana7 (101570) • India 23 Mar 10

I just saw Warren Buffet's house. Just 5 bedrooms! And he bought it ages ago. Some of the nouveau billionaires in our country have homes that'd put Buckingham palace to shame. (No offense meant). Coming back to point - large homes...

Kate1950 I used to think that I had to have a really big house to be happy! My thinking changed when I got that house and realized all the work that came with maintaining it. We have since downsized, and between the time I save on cleaning, and the money saved on...

Do you want to live more than 60 years old?

intelpink @intelpink (163) • Philippines 11 Mar 10

For me, I only want to live whenever I can still walk and talk but if I can't walk or talk anymore maybe it's time for me to go. Anyway, I think 60-80 years old is a long life to live and I think I have done all thing that i need...

Kate1950 As long as I am healthy and able to think and do for myself, I want to live as long as possible. There are too many things that I still want to do with my life.

Kate1950 I have been debating as to whether I will still watch Idol after Simon leaves, but if Howard Stern takes his place then the decision is already made. He is the most obnoxious and disgusting person on tv! No way would he be good for the show.

3SnuggleBunnies @3SnuggleBunnies (16374) • United States 2 Mar 10

I live like 5min from my job & that's if I hit all 4 stop lights + one stop sign on the way there! *LOL* I used to drive 30min one way wich was ok cause I had some "me time" but I don't miss rush hour traffic that's for sure. But...

Kate1950 Actually I am one of the "lucky" one who only has to walk from the kitchen with my cup of coffee to my computer. No driving involved! I've been doing this for about a year now, and I have to say..I love it! Staying home, making money, and sometimes even coming...

Hi MyLotters and my friends from all over the world. Just imagine, that one day you wake up, dress up yourself and go to take something from the local store or just to take the mail, and in front of your front door you see a small...

Kate1950 Well, you certainly can't keep the baby just because it was left on your doorstep. There are legal channels you have to go through! Call the authorities (police, etc) and explain the situation to them. An abandoned child isn't like finding a kitten or a puppy....

animals shelter do good or not?

Ambitiouslyleiah @Ambitiouslyleiah (591) • United States 22 Dec 09

i got inspired to start this discussion from a post that i responded to yesterday & the issue is whether or not animal shelters are doing a good job or not? I dont believe that my local animal shelter is doing a good job because...

Kate1950 I think that shelters do the best they can under the circumstances. They rely on donations from animal supporters to keep themselves going. There are rules and regulations in place to protect the animals, and also the person adopting. The fees can be a bit...

Kate1950 Nope! You aren't the 'crazy cat lady'. You just love your feline friends. I have 6 beautiful fur-babies, and I talk to each and every one of them. They are all indoor cats because I feel that is the only way to keep them safe. I also have 2 small dogs, and...

For the past couple of months, there has been a cat living in the crawl space in the basement of our apartment. Although we've been feeding her, dropping food through a small hole in our kitchen floor, my girlfriend was against...

Kate1950 Well, since you already have 5 cats, what's one more? I have 6, and they are no more trouble than 1! If your cats have accepted her then she obviously fits in well with your family. Please consider keeping her, as there are too many little animals that don't...

If there's heaven, can animals go to heave?

jobmoone @jobmoone (442) • Philippines 27 Feb 10

I heard that animals has souls too. If that's true, will they have a place in heaven or hell?

Kate1950 I sincerely believe that I will see my beloved pets who have died, in heaven.I know there is a special place for our furry friends, and yes, I believe that they have souls. Animals commit no sins, therefore they do not go to hell. God created them to be our...

LetranKnight25 @LetranKnight25 (33117) • Philippines 1 Mar 10

Hello lotters, i was told by the one who gave me "jolen" (not banjo) that i should feed her with light food like porridge, or rice because she can't eat meat or bone at her three month age. So, here we go i...

Kate1950 I'm not sure why you were told not to feed your new puppy dog food! Puppy food (canned or dry) is good for them and contains vitamins and nutrients that they need to grow. Cat food is definitely not good for a puppy (or a full grown dog) to eat. Besides making...

Those telecallers, how do you tackle them?

vanny @vandana7 (101570) • India 26 Feb 10

My poor papa, he is 75 years old. He sleeps less in night time, and more in the day time. More often than not, it is while he watches those sob stories that our television serials are all made of. Just then, somebody is kind...

Kate1950 The only way to tell these people not to call anymore, is to ask that your number (or that of your papa) be put on their "do not call" list. They have to respect your request. Also, there is a do not call registry that you can go to on the web, and register...
