Hello~ *curtsy*

I would like to invite you to my new Etsy shop: Astarise Designs

I just picked out a few presents for Christmas and I'm wondering what your opinion is on wrapping?

Would it be better for the environment to use:

wrapping paper
newspaper
bags
tissue paper

other alternatives..?

PHALLUS DEI
A DAY IN THE LIFE OF BRIAN WILSON
Big Blue Records

A delightfully absorbent album (as you settle into the curious company it provides), this is made by Mk. E, Richard Van Kruysdijk and Oliver St. Lingam, who I gather are from Strange Attractor and Sonar Lodge, aided and abetted by didgeridooist Alex Goebbels and vocalists John Walker (of the Walker Brothers!) and Clara Engel, who you may know (translation don’t ask me). Apparently they’re named after an Amon Dull album, but don’t let that put you off.

If anyone knows were to get more of these silver buttons, I'd be ever so grateful! They were a gift from a friend, and they were originally a gift to her too, so we have NO idea where they came from. The first person to post a link gets 1/2 off of their favorite item in my store. :-)

Thanks!

My friend Sheika lost her new kitty - she wrote about it on DiyScene - http://www.diyscene.com/forum/showthread.php?t=19115

We finally figured out that Dixon is a Bombay mix!! I was at work for an interview, and it was srecond chance pets day, and there were a lot of kitties that looked just like our Dixon, so I asked a worker what breed he may be, and showed her a pic and described his attitude, and she told me he was a Bombay/DSH mix...now we know!!

Heres a pic of our Dixon, and he looks almost just like the pics when we google image "bombay cat"...

This morning on my way out of Star Bucks to go back home, I'm about to get into the car when I hear this pathetic sounding 'mew' in the background. I of course turn to find the source because it sounded a bit distressed.

I keep hearing the 'mew' and track it down until I'm behind the shops dumpster and find this tiny ball of fluff huddled behind it looking lost and terrified. When it saw me it toddled on shaky legs to huddle next to my foot.

I picked it up and carried it home because I wasn't about to leave something so tiny and helpless alone in the cold. When I got the kitten home, warmed, and fed I gave it a good looking over.

It's a she and appears to be a scottish fold kitten with the traditional folded down ears. She has a white, medium length coat with pale orange markings. I'm assuming she must be someones pet even though she didn't have a collar.

Tomorrow I'm taking her to the vet to have her checked for a chip and to be sure she's healthy. I've made a few 'lost kitten' posters to post at the vet and local pounds in case someone comes looking.

But if no one comes to claim her in a reasonable amount of time I would like to keep her. I'm trying not to get attatched, but it's hard. She's the sweetest little thing. I lost my beloved baby boy, Gizzy, a few months back and it's been hard to deal with.

But when I look at her big green eyes I don't feel like crying for once. Maybe it's fate, I don't know. I just want what's best for her to have a long, happy, healthy kitty life. I just wanted to share and see how others have handled rescuing a kitten/cat. Thanks for reading.

I'll get pics when she's settled down and not so skittish.

(This is not her, but a pic I found that closely resembles her to give you some sort of idea.)

We been trying to figure out what breed my cat Boots is. We think he is part Ragdoll because he acts somewhat like a ragdoll like when you pick him up he goes limp and lays on his back but we know he can't pure breed because he doesn't have blue eyes. Here are two pictures that I took two months ago.

Dear Most Esteemed and Knowledgeable Kitties:
About two weeks ago, my cat, who is about 4 years of age, started losing lots of weight, his breath started smelling horrible (like he just ate poop) and his fur turned greasy and smelly. When he sleeps with me at night on my pillow I’ll wake up to my [...]
