Cats bad habits

nancygibson @nancygibson (3736) • France 8 Mar 07

My kitten has started a new bad habit, every night this week we have woken up to find him snuggled up under the covers of the bed between us! I don't mind him sleeping on the bed, but I certainly don't want him under the duvet...

kyrandia 2 of my six cats like to use my husband's and my room and bed as a race track about the time I want to go to bed. They will run bloody murder across the bed and play and wrestle and chew on each other. It drives me absolutely nuts when it is about 11pm and I...

Rude people on mylot.....

ironstruck @ironstruck (2298) • Canada 7 Mar 07

Are you finding that there are some very rude people on mylot? For the most part I really like the people I have run into on this forum. But as is true with most of life there is always someone around who is full of...

kyrandia I think MyLot is a great community where the topics can get pretty heated. I love a good debate and there is a huge difference between expressing a difference of opinion civily and just arguing and being rude for the sake of being rude. I have experienced...

Should I be upset at my familly for this?

thyst07 @thyst07 (2079) • United States 5 Mar 07

I came home from college today to do some laundry, and found my room TRASHED. My sister took my bed out of my room and put it in hers, and also took the storage unit that my boyfriend loaned me to keep my stuff in. All the stuff...

kyrandia It seems to me the only thing that you haven't done from what your letter says is talk with your parents and you sister about the situation. I agree it looks really bad from what your sister did to the obvious "didn't care" attitude from your parents. But, you...

"Do as I say and not as I do!"

Kaeli72 @Kaeli72 (1229) • United States 1 Mar 07

As a child, I'm sure you've heard this statement from your parents. You'd cringe and more than likely you vowed that when you had children, you'd NEVER say anything like that to them. Now that you're older and you have children of...

kyrandia There were so many things that my parents said to me that I promised never to say to my kids...and now I can honestly say,"I'm turning into my mother!" Maybe there is a reason why we say the same things. My mom was and still is a great mom. Even though there...

kyrandia I was suprised that someone actually took the time and responded to my post. I was excited and it made me want to keep starting more and more discussions and to keep posting more and more responses.

draconess @draconess (650) • Canada 1 Mar 07

Was there a new episode this week, tuesday Feb. 27th? I had to close at work so didn't get home until after it would have been over! If it was a new episode, could someone summarize what happened for me? I hate missing out, it's...

kyrandia Fortunately for you there was no new House this week. I think it is supposed to start up again with new episodes either next week or the week after. The reason being is because of American Idol.

Getting Your Cats De-Clawed

orcanut @orcanut (146) • Canada 20 Feb 07

OK, I seriously need help with this one. I love my husband, he loves me. I love our kids, so does he. I love my cats. He hates my cats. It has to be the biggest bone of contention between us. Despite my best efforts, they continue...

Has your child ever said this to you? Did you feel bad or did you just chalk it up as a "stage all kids go through"?

kyrandia I have 2 step sons ages 5 and 7 and they say it to me when they get into big trouble. I just shrug it off because I know they don't mean it. I honestly remember saying that to my parents when I was younger. Now, I don't like hearing it and I don't think any...

What is your favorite breed?

GuateMom @GuateMom (1411) • Canada 1 Mar 07

I like the look of Angoras, but I've only ever had mixed breeds, the feline version of a mutt, if you will! They were always great.

cats

kyrandia My favorite breed has to be a Ragdoll. They look like himalayans but the great part about them is that eventhough they are longhaired cats they do not shed! They are also hypo-allergenic which means that some people that are usually allergic to cats might not...

Punishing

tator_tot8073 @tator_tot8073 (698) • United States 28 Feb 07

Do you think that it is appropriate to punish your children in public??? The reason I am asking this because I have seen many people do it. I personally think that if your child needs to be punished it should be done in privacy....

kyrandia I don't see necessarily discipling your child in public. I think if you don't reprimand your child as soon as he or she does the misdeed the punishment will lose its meaning. Having said that I don't agree with spanking in public. But a stern word and saying...

kyrandia First things first. It is normal in a relationship to have separate friends. It would drive me crazy to be around my husband 24/7. I love him with all my heart but everyone needs some "me" time. It's time to sit down with him and have a frank discussion and be...

Yup, that's the question. I've been online for too many hours a day until my mom decided to limit my time to only around 3 hours a day! I mean, I can't really do much in 3 hours. There's so much to do online, like, checking all my...
