I knew you would love it. I wish I could upload it (along with a view of the back of the card where they say their vets make house calls) but I didn't keep an extra.

H, the copy/scan/printer stopped working so there's no way to transfer the card to the computer at the present time.

Safely stored bookmark for 'Psychic Pets" Smile - will post when new computer equipment arrives, probably a month.

Called a few vets offices and they said when circumstances permit, {an elderly or very sick animal - and of course large animals {horses, cattle, sheep, etc} the vets make housecalls.

Sick feral animals = Wildlife rescue

Human emergency housecalls = ambulance or helicopter

Good for you Beth! Bernie's 60! He honestly qualifies as an old fart now. And he can prove it.........he's already asleep.......has been since 10 PM.

I'll let him know you sent your wishes.

Mz. Bella doesn't visit the vet. She sees the kitty carrier, bolts, yells, burrows somewhere in the house, and doesn't reappear for days.


I love Beagles. We had one named Dopey when I was a kid. Very lovable and smart too.

Beth..........it's gotta be a cat.......neither Bernie or I can manage to take the darling out for a walk four or so times a day!

My daughter in Dallas......he cat had a huge stroke and died last month. He was much beloved.......he's brother to the cat Bernie and I have now. Anyway, she abopted an adorable, petite, one year old tordie kitten, female. A sweet, playful and gentle cat. When I was visiting over the last several weeks, Quintana slept with me. She snuggled right in. Bernie and I have decided that we have to find a sweet kitten type for our Zana to adopt. If only we had the time to look for the right one. One will come along eventually and when she does.........we'll know it.

I've been in Texas a lot since Christmas. My sad news is that my Mom died last week. She was 96 and had a long good life. But we'll all miss her.

HofT........we missed you in New York. We were very sick while we were in the city. Very miserable. So when are you coming to visit us here?

Best to all my cafe friends!

Lola, I'm very sorry to hear about your mother.

I always imagined her as positively indomitable.

Lola - condolences for your mom; it's sad, no matter at what age it happens...

I also was sorry to miss you in NY; I knew you had been ill - remember, you and Bernie called me to say that! - and glad to hear you're better now. I may be stopping by on my way to / from China next time I go there, but have no date as yet.

Last but not least, many happy returns to Bernie - love you too Smile

Before cuddling conservative ladies, dear older friend [I'm still for 353 days in my 50's!], you perhaps could have a look at your birthday thread ...

Lola, you'll have to ask Hoft of Bernie cause i get lost going to the grocery store anymore - California is right next door to Oregon, and if you guys live near Grants Pass - then you're 7 hours away from the Bay Area.

So very sad hearing about your mom, Lola. Never easy losing family members. Sending good thoughts to you and your family.

Walter...thanks, osso just sent me a pm.

stradee...we're in Portland, which of course sits right at the very top of the state so that makes the trip about 10 hours. Not far. Vancouver is 5 or so and I love driving.

Thanks to all for your condolences. It was sad, but we celebrated her life in an inspiring way at her memorial service.

Beth,

She held on for a long time. Each year she would say to me, "can you believe it? I made it another year." Her quality of life had so deteriorated however in the end that I think she thought it was time to go.
