Guest guest Posted March 10, 2000 Report Share Posted March 10, 2000 HEY! Not fair! I posted something like two weeks ago insinuating that there was too much off-topic stuff to make it easy to read the list anymore - and I didn't cause any controversy. Now, some guy posts about a cat and people are all over him. What gives? If someone's stirrin up trouble, I like to at least be a part of it. For the record, I hate postings about cats! Now, bring it on... Alan http://www.webroads.net/isser ______________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 10, 2000 Report Share Posted March 10, 2000 Hi Rebekah; Lover Boy is an old Barn Cat, 3 years old and lived in a cow shed till I got him. He doesn't table walk or claw the furniture. He loves the scratch pad and just rips on it, then goes to sleep on it. My previous two damned near destroyed my lift and recliner chair. I think I can safely recover it now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 10, 2000 Report Share Posted March 10, 2000 Yes. I have a very nice post covered in low pile blue that I am going to repaint orange and donate to the highway department as it is shaped like a pylon. jan " jim hankins " wrote: original article:/group/12-step-free/?start=13114 > Have any of you folks who own cats noticed that they love to claw the > hell out of your expensive furniture, but when you buy them a nice > FLUFFY scratching POST, they don't touch it???!!! > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 10, 2000 Report Share Posted March 10, 2000 Apparently Fluffy, someone's cat, (I think it's 's) has been posting to this list and I completely missed it. Not fair, Apple, Judith, Pete and all the rest of you holding out on me like this. If this keeps up I'm letting the mutt come online here after I pull him away from the Purina site. fluffy posts HEY! Not fair! I posted something like two weeks ago insinuating that there was too much off-topic stuff to make it easy to read the list anymore - and I didn't cause any controversy. Now, some guy posts about a cat and people are all over him. What gives? If someone's stirrin up trouble, I like to at least be a part of it. For the record, I hate postings about cats! Now, bring it on... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
