Note for Haloscan Users: Haloscan started (the end of July) rejecting trackbacks if they were submitted “too rapidly” by the same host. I don’t know what the timer is but it is long enough so that it was very difficult to ping everyone that is using Haloscan for trackbacks. I’m sure that they are doing this to try to hold back the tide of trackback spam but it makes the service pretty useless for carnival type posts. Perhaps you can contact them and urge some different solution. Update: Typepad appears to be doing the same thing. Everytime I update the Ark it appears the timers are reset and the long list of MT autogenerated pings fail. Yecchhhh….
Feline Friday: Flannel cave
Cats like caves. Our cats like to burrow into the cave formed between us when we’re sitting in bed reading or watching TV. What does a cat do when there’s no cave to be had? Paul walked into our bedroom one afternoon to find that Sergei ha…
In case my trackback doesn’t notify you, here’s Sergei’s flannel cave.

Friday Cat Blogging – Tom takes over the world
Tom looks far too pleased with himself, having undertaken a coup to become top cat in the house. He then absconded with my new scarf which I received for Christmas and used it as a blanket. If he wasn’t so damned cute, I’d be upset.
Here’s…

Friday Diamondblogging — Merry Christmas!
For Christmas Santa gave Diamond the local dog run all to herself for the morning:
Despite the hot weather, and talk of walk bans, Sasha and Taffy were out again this week. Happy and prosperous New Year.

It’s Friday, so it is time once again for cat pictures. Here is a picture of Inquisitor taken with my new camera. You can also see the new computer in the background. Inquisitor is sitting on the cat ledge by

Bye Bye 2005
This is the last Friday Cat Blogging post of 2005. It’s been an interesting year, with Pip being introduced to my family, which is Blur and me. Now, I’m not sure which of the two cats did this, but I’ve…

Critter Resolutions
A Crazy Cat Lady action figure! Except for the fact that my hair is still mostly dark, and I’m not skinny, and I have only two cats — that could be me. And since I am getting an iPod Nano for Christmas (!!!), of course I want this totally frivolous a…

Friday Diamondblogging — Merry Christmas!
For Christmas Santa gave Diamond the local dog run all to herself for the morning:
You’re only as old as you feel?
She’s looking up to snuff, meeping every inch of her home territory this evening after a hearty evening meal. When a veterinarian calls your baby girl an older cat it kills your soul. What do they know? According to some

Friday Pet Blogging | A Day Late
