Gracie Kitten Extraordinaire

Well, somethings not right with Gracie. I was going to take her to the vet today but that didn’t happen. I have to wait. I talked to a friend about her behavior and it’s probably that she has a tape worm. She seems to ravage food but also her attitude has changed. She’s gotten mean with Bella. Bell runs from her and hisses at her because Gracie’s hurting her poor little self. So, as soon as I can I’ll take her in to see what’s up with her. She’s gained a good 3 pounds in I’d say a week, maybe 10 days. I don’t know but she worries me. She gives out this little cry that just breaks my heart. She drinks just fine and when she’s not hurting Bella she plays just fine but something’s not right so I’m going to take her in.

This is the same cat that had the seizures due to poisoning. That poor kid can’t catch a break. She looks absolutely beautiful with more weight on her but since her behavior has changed, especially her eating habits, then I have to be really concerned. Gracie isn’t a mean cat but it seems here recently she’s mean. Poor Bell runs away from her. It’s just sad. At first Bell weighed more than Gracie but now Grace has passed her up big time. I expected weight gain after being fixed (January 9th of this year) but I didn’t expect meanness or for her to act like she’s never eaten before in her life. She eats so much that she vomits.

If there's a blog where this sign would fit take it. If you prefer different colors let me know and I'll make it.

Other than watching over Gracie and protecting Bella my day has been nothing but fighting spammers. I had to close 10 different entries that were attacked by the same jackass.

When new people comment I look up their IP address and the name they gave to see if they’re really leaving a comment or opening up a slot for spam. One person I did this with had been kicked off the wilkipedia site. Her IP address had been banned. That’s bad! She even dogged her apartment building on their own site. She said that in like 2002. She seems to have a habit of leaving spam and negative comments. Nothing’s safe on the net. If you said it and clicked send it’s out there for good. One lady turned out to be a frikin racist. The stuff she said about other races was nothing but shameful but had I not looked her up I never would have known her true nature. Her comments aren’t welcome on this blog. Perhaps she didn’t read the ‘about me’ page where it mentions I’m one of those people she feels has no moral fiber. But you know, spammers spam at will. They don’t check to see if the blog is someone they approve of, they just send their spam bots and seek out decent bloggers like myself. Anyway though, so I do a quick Google search of new comments and if it looks okay I let ‘em in but if not, bye bye! My comment policy is on the sidebar so if you ever need a reminder that there is no Comment Constitution you can move your eyes to the right and viola there it is, the comment policy showing you have no inherent rights on this blog.

Last but not least, I had to add the word “spam” to words the moderation program catches. So if for some reason you use that word in your comments it’ll get sent to moderation and I’ll pull it out. I check the comments before clearing out that box. I have to do it daily seeing as how recently I’ve gotten up to 400 spams a day. Jackasses!!!

Yes, yes. I know Beauty. :-) I know you don’t get spammed like this on your square space blog. Must be nice The joy I feel for you right now abounds. ;-)
