Love is all we need. Even if its from cats! I have 2 really amazing boyfriends I snuggle with. Winston and Emilio. My cats. Yes, Im the cat lady. Winston is old and crabby but I love him. He is the most high maintenance animal on the planet. Always itchy. Always stressed. Always wanting attention. Then there is Emilio. He is a big fatty with a raspy meow. Thats about all I can say about him. I have pictures but I am lame and dont know how to attach them. Love&Light - Angie Are we all needy or what!???

We tried a new one that the vet offered us, called VECTRA and 12 hours after I applied it, she was flipping out. I called the vet and between me, the pharmaceutical rep. and the company who makes the product, we knew it was a reaction to the medication. We kept her on pain pills for 5 days just to keep her somewhat normal and I had to bathe her in dish detergent to help offset the feeling on her skin that was driving her nuts !!! Needless to say, we were reimbursed and she will go back to her old stuff next month !!! {and by the way, the crotch licking picture totally cracked me up} OMG….we have a dog, but just recently went through the same thing…and it was her flea medication !!!

She'll jump on our lap, cuddle and love us until the second another human walks through the door. She likes her privacy and space, what can I say. Emmy has the opposite problem and practically breaks the door down to jump and wag her tail and pounce on new people to love. (and she used to be afraid of men, so this is very good) So I guess, among many things, my pets teach me that sometimes you need to be alone, and sometimes you need lots of friends all around you. This is Emmy:
