Rocky is a ham. He is under the influence of catnip here and is taking a breather. He and his two brothers, Eric and Bob, are quite the trio!

Tabbies rule!
Aww. It does look like he’s just ‘chillin’ there and storing up energy to run around like a crazy kitty again.
“Caution”-cat on catnip FUZZ
*Balboa Fuzz*
Rocky is a cutie! He looks like he is resting his boxing gloves over the edge of the ring.
Hi Everyone!
Hey Linda Kiara,
Love your comment and I can’t top it so I won’t even try.
Wow, you have 2 more like Rocky?Must be lots of fun better than most TV.
Totally adorable :))
How cute!!! - Catnip is a funny thing - Eric & Bob - love the names. Rocky is adorable!!
*Hallucinogenic FUZZ*
(he kinda looks a little like my Vinny) He’s SO cute!!
Hi Dee!
Just read yesterday’s posting - How to prepare for a new cat- very funny.
Also posted a message for you but it was late in the day so I don’t know if you saw it.
I want to thank you again about my gang on Animalsmatterstome.org..I completely forgot.. So I looked and I just had to post another pix of Wally, you can’t see his face and he is so handsome!
It is cold and raining here boy I wish I was in Tampa!
I hope everyone has a great week-end :))
Evangeline–
Just saw the second pic of Wally–what a serene looking cat.
As for the weather, it is beautiful today—and will be throughout the weekend—temps in the mid-80’s with low humidity. Finally, a taste of fall. (Having grown up in Michigan, it still sounds so peculiar to think of this as “cool” weather, but it is jungle hot here for 6 months of the year.) But, I would love to spend the summer in Montreal. Florida summers are hellishly hot and humid.
I found out here in GA it is six degrees cooler in Hell. So when Hell got over crowded they opened a branch office here for the really hard core cases.
How are you doing today Dee?
I love this kitty baby today so sweet and looks gentle - can be so decieving!
Susan–
I’m doing better today. You all really made me feel much better yesterday. Never underestimate the power of (kind) words. Thank you all so very much.
In the North Ga Mts. we love the kitties, especially one’s on capnip
Hi Dee,
WOW, you are very perceptive. Yes Wally is very serene. Always has been. The first time I took him to the vet, he was approximately 3 months, he purred like crazy when the vet examined him. She actually picked him up and put him to her ear, I guess it’s not the usual reception vets get. Then while we were talking he fell asleep on that cold table. He is a real sweet kitty my handsome big boy! “))
Dee and Susan,
I grew up next to the N. GA mountains. I lived in the Tampa Bay area for 7 years. You couldn’t pay me to leave my home in rural Texas between Houston and San Antonio to go back to either! GOD BLESS TEXAS!!!
I spent the first 40 years of my life in Chicago now I am being held hostage by a band of crazy people better know as my family in GA. I do miss the four seasons in the North. Down here we only have three seasons hot, hotter and oh my God.
We have four seasons in Alabama: almost summer, summer, still summer, and Christmas.
“Whoa, dude” fuzz! What a cutie!
Being an animal lover, I don’t get why people have to see animals as things they can hurt. Thanks, Dee, for the website on the bill. I can’t wait to see what the hack the government has though up. I hope this time it is better than some of the not-so-great bills they’ve passed and haven’t. By the way, I like your poem, Rudyard Kilping.
He looks like a sweetheart. I want to take him home and cuddle!!
Oi! Cathi!
Long time no see,hah?
How are you?
I loved your cute cats pictures!
God bless you!
I love your new blog! Glad you are back online here, too.
Rocky is a cutie. Crazed kitty syndrome! I love when they play with catnip.
Rocky is SO cute! I’m sure your other cats are just as precious. My cat is very entertaining when she has access to catnip, too. It is so much fun to watch them play!
I just received this e-mail from the ASPCA. Isn’t this great?
*VICTORY FOR THE ANIMALS! DECLAWING OF CAPTIVE WILD ANIMALS HAS BEEN BANNED*
Great news! Declawing captive wild or exotic animals—including lions, tigers, wolves and bears—is no longer permitted under the federal Animal Welfare Act. In a recently announced decision of the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), the agency has declared that declawing cannot be performed with the intent of making the animals easier to handle. Per the USDA’s decision, declawing is “no longer considered to be acceptable when performed solely for handling or husbandry purposes,” as this procedure can cause much pain and discomfort, often resulting in chronic health problems.
I love his big paws!! I bet he and his two playmates are a blast.
omg, how cuuuuuute!
i love his lil’ front feets!
*squee!*
oh my ….too cute!!! love the pose! i love the descript of the trouble trio! LOL! Rocky is a real handsome guy!
Oh! He needs to be on The Cat Chow Bag.I like him!
What a sweetie! i love his “peek-a-boo” look.
He’s got a great “M” mark.
Here is a link about another man vs. nature situation. As difficult as it is, I have stopped feeding squirrels—specifically because of stories like these….
http://www.nbc11.com/news/9946298/detail.html?rss=bay&psp=news
He’s going to be a beautiful cat too, very handsome tabby markings.
A real poser I reckon.
OK bartender….set me up with another catnip coctail…and make it a double, and oh heck I’ll just buy the bar a round….
Rocky is a beautiful kit….looks like he could be a real devil though…..
He’s a cutie and a beauty! Love that pose! We pray that the Lord will bless you and Rocky always.
Hello all, I put a pic up of Erwin the 3 1/2 week old wonder cat
just in case anyone wanted to see him……..

brandi Lee–
Erwin is adorable.
Rocky is very cute…. and so is Erwin… And Brandi… I love your tribute to Steve… he was what I want to be…..
thank you…..Me to in fact I am working to make that happen…….
Hey brandi Lee,
Your baby is absolutely gorgeous, and he looks so alert. You really should submit his picture to this site :))
I think i will Ms Evangeline
I sent this pic to my hubby at work and he has talked of nothing else since lol Erwin is a very special boy already
Brandi Lee, I love your 360! Love your cats and the Steve Irwin tribute. Your cats are beautiful.
By the way, I’m glad to see both Linda-Kiara, Ben, and Chester are back. We missed you guys.
Just in case anyone is interested about the outcome of the manhunt for the killer of the police officer and his dog yesterday, a SWAT team shot and killed him about 3 hours ago. It’s quite an interesting story, so I’ve included the link. And, please say a silent prayer for the officer (photo included) who ultimately lost his life by trying to keep his corner of the world a little safer. And, of course, keep Diogi, the K-9 officer who was killed in your prayers, too. He was a beautiful German Shepherd.
He left behind 3 teen-aged boys and a wife. Her birthday just happened to be yesterday, the day her husband was killed. So tragic….

Rocky is just adorable. Most of my kitties were tabbies.
Well I survived another trip to the hospital. All body parts almost intact. Next week will be the big one to see if that holds true.
Dee I rechecked the last few days messages & heard you were having a few difficulties. As I’ve said in the past my ears are always open to anyone who needs a friend to listen. It’s what I do. Sober chick,cathi in NC & emily rose have a way to contact me if you need someone to listen. You might be surprised what an interested ear can hear.
We’ve missed you, Chester! Another hospital trip? Is everything ok?
Just a warning, I may take you up on your offer one day! Your kind offer is very appreciated.
Thanks for keeping us “posted”. (I know, bad joke…)
Never a bad joke from you. From a former comedian there is no such thing. Speaking only for myself but probably for others your daily input has been informantive & appreciated. We appreciate the length that you go thru to make us informed. Your stories & tales contribute to make this site just a little bit more. Heck contact me you never know. Peace!!
It is good to hear from you. I’m sorry about your stay in ther hospital. I hope you are much better now. I have added you as a friend on my 360 site.
Today was a good day for me. I got 2 paychecks, it’s Friday, and the 4 people missing from this site lately, have returned! It’s a very good day indeed.
Chester it is so good to hear from you again I have asked a couple of times about you and if anyone had heard from you.
I don’t know what your trouble is but will say some extra prayers for you.
What a cutie! I bet there is never a dull moment in your house. Plus you have a house full of love. How wonderful!
Rocky is under-the-influence AND under-the-chair. What a handsome boy!
I think I’ve posted this link before, but in case I have not—it’s the winners of the ASPCA 2006 cat photo contest….

i have a 3 year old female named Sabrina she is my second baby i have a 20 month old that chases her all over the house we are soon to get a puppy (Pug or some other small breed)My family has all always loved cats my sister in california has 6 cats and they are her babies.
The following link is an important one to all animal lovers. It is to urge your U.S. Representative to stand behind The Animal Fighting Prohibition Enforcement Act. The link is short and very informative. Sadly, in Florida, dogfighting rings are regularly broken up. This bill would turn these crimes into felonies rather than misdemeanors.

Fuzzy Wuzzy waz a cat,
Fuzzy Wuzzy waz all dat,
One day Fuzzy Wuzzy spat,
The next he was an alley cat.
Rocky really is a ham. I love that deranged catnip look. He looks like a baby tiger–just beautiful. And he has enormous FB’s, as Rosie would say.
Hello everyone, its been so long since I’ve written anything here! I’ve been so busy with family and pets and jobs and such. Sarah’s pregnancy is going very well…she is such a trooper. Sarah is a doctor, and she insists that she doesn’t need any time off yet. The kids are wonderful! Christopher is a cute lil’ guy and already knows so much english! It’s amazing! We have a trip to Russia planned for two weeks from now, they are so excited! Captain, our dog, is adapting to not having all the attention. Everything has been so busy with the holidays coming too. I have been writing (I sometimes write poetry) and i have come up with another beautiful poem:
Watch the clouds dance through the sky,
watch the birds fly so high,
watch young ones grow and spread their wings,
let them loose
and they will sing.
Ben,
That is such a beautiful little poem! I have read another one of your poems in the past on this site. You are such a good writer!
Rocky’s eyes are so pretty! Rocky you’re my idol!
Why thank you, Kailey! It’s an honor!
rocky is so cute i could just cuddle with him at night.
What a cute and clever looking little being! Big bright eyes, outlined in black, perfect tabby M on his forehead, and precise little whisker-dots! Mischievous big paws–it’s all good. Love him always!
ahhhhhhhhh
hes so cute and fuddly. i want a cat like that!
(takes a final ‘nip hit) “Dude - quick, mom’s coming! Open the windows!”
NICKEL BAG FUZZ

Being a huge Foxworthy fan…..
If you’ve ever used a barstool as a walker..
You might have a catnip problem
That is exactly how my cat loves to sit on the chairs in my kitchen when I am cooking.
Hi! Very cute!
I just thought you might like to know that I have a cat that looks very similar! We just found out she has some egyptian mau lineage. Do you think yours might as well? He has the traditional markings… the black rings around front paws and neck, the black m above the forehead…
Just curious!
TTYS!
Carey
……………………ahem…………………………..Rocky is a Tabby………….he doesn’t need help being sexy……………….
*Kittycrack Fuzz*
ROCKY IS SO CUTE HIDING BEHIND THE CHAIR WHAT A PRECIOUS LITTLE KITTIE
What big paws you have! Rocky, you are going to be a big kitty. You look a lot like my Tigger and he is a big boy; 3 yrs. old and 16 lbs later!! Have a good life in your new home. Play lots! Love lots!
Well Rocky aren’t you a little young to hang around the bar stools. You better watch out for that catnip, it’ll get you every time. Just don’t get a hangover. Better watch out some little girl kittie might come along and thing you are really cute. (Which you are)
that looks like one of my kittens!
lol
Rocky is adorable, but I would sure like to see a picture of all three, Rocky, Eric, and Bob!
i love your kitty it looks just like my old cat.
