He got feline leukemia but was a street wise character. <br /><br />We are having a strange summer with rain. Maybe we're getting your rain?

I get too worried.<br />Mom's cats have always been outdoors, and it never use to bother her until she got Mr. Tibbs. He's usually in before she goes to bed, but every once in a while, he'll stay out all night - and she gets so mad. Just like having a teenager who misses curfew.Wanderingcatstudiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11459444703722115118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10685986.post-82796274011373478732016-08-12T11:04:47.247-04:002016-08-12T11:04:47.247-04:00Send some rain dances our way, too.

Don't give her any grief now that she is keeping you in! it's for your own safety. What? you want to stay in and be safe. okay, well yes, but.. still.. go cuddle up to her and purr :) <br /><br />I lost a cat to the great outdoors. Tig would not be kept inside.. he was destructive. He was an outdoor kitty before we got him, and we could not convince him to stay in. Broke my heart several times.. when he didn't come home, a week after he didn't come home, the first snow fall, the first spring, etc.. it is hard.<br /><br />*does a quick rain dance for you* Connie - Tails from the Foster Kittenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01127077337743262149noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10685986.post-40632093486330226962016-08-11T14:12:45.772-04:002016-08-11T14:12:45.772-04:00happy Archie made his way home.

So so parched everywhere. I top the bird and butterfly baths up a couple times a day and put out fresh hummer syrup every day. I know they all appreciate it as we have a lot of visitors to the back garden. Yes the gardens are suffering but I try to hand water some of my herbs in pots ----- gots to have my pesto. Hugs to all... and let's hope we get this rain that is promised.zAzAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12842064449671828288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10685986.post-4825534792407969622016-08-11T13:29:03.072-04:002016-08-11T13:29:03.072-04:00I'll bet Archie wishes he never left home.

That damn cat!! <br /><br />I do believe that all your mental messages found their mark. <br /><br />More than 20 years ago, I had an indoor/outdoor cat (no more!) who sometimes wouldn't come -- unless I stood outside and imagined getting out some raw chicken livers, chopping them up and putting them in her bowl. She got the message every time and would appear. The one time I tried to get away with NOT giving her chicken livers after that -- boy, was she pissed!amyfibrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01089380287307928974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10685986.post-23941292968532771622016-08-11T10:59:20.507-04:002016-08-11T10:59:20.507-04:00glad Archie is safe....we can't imagine your w...glad Archie is safe....we can't imagine your worry..... hope you get some rain soon!Random Felineshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02591546634183113556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10685986.post-72645321849698687642016-08-11T10:33:37.040-04:002016-08-11T10:33:37.040-04:00So glad Archie is back with you!So glad Archie is back with you!Crafting Queenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13211565460519313444noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10685986.post-39022216588283838802016-08-11T09:42:33.471-04:002016-08-11T09:42:33.471-04:00I'm with you 100% on the cat thing. I worried ...I'm with you 100% on the cat thing. I worried about cats for years when the kids were small and they would run outside every time the door opened. I'd be rounding them up at dinner time and trying to keep them inside for the night. There was often an escape artist and I would be up all night wandering the field across the road looking for him/her. No more of that. Luckily we never lost one. Archie will adapt as your cat run is fantastic and your home offers many luxuries. Still no rain here, either. All our grass is dead except for that that surrounds our veggie garden. That's where our effort goes and it is taking a lot of our time. Oh well, we carry on. Hope there is relief soon for you with all those animals to worry about.Debhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06817710263282488135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10685986.post-53415402831939150282016-08-11T09:28:22.458-04:002016-08-11T09:28:22.458-04:00So glad Archie came home!

We have been asked to reduce our water consumption by 50%. We long ago stopped watering our lawns but every few days I do water my flower gardens. No rain in sight but I think it is supposed to cool off a bit. Hopefully as we are moving next week!Cat Loverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09504271572051737490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10685986.post-4013784710055497182016-08-10T23:59:08.904-04:002016-08-10T23:59:08.904-04:00I am glad Archie is back, I can only imagine how s...I am glad Archie is back, I can only imagine how scary that was to ot be able to find him.pilch92https://www.blogger.com/profile/12263559408792146826noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10685986.post-51159901574257502462016-08-10T20:10:55.712-04:002016-08-10T20:10:55.712-04:00so glad that Archie made it home!

The Kingston Whig Standard has an online article stating that this is the driest summer since 1888 and the second driest summer *so far* in the 140 years that records have been kept. So I wasn't dreaming it, thinking I'd never seen the like in my 20 years here. We're ALL doing rain dances right now!<br /><br />As for Archie...Well, I'm glad he made it home safe after his "walk-about"! He's a lucky kitty in that regard, and also to have a wonderful home with people who care enough to make outdoor kitty runs/catios.<br /><br />Purrs from my two.<br /><br />Kim<br />Fuzzy Taleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09505853082591216696noreply@blogger.com
