Re: Got cats?

The kitty didn't make it.

Congrats, Tanga and Troo. Two more kitties that found good homes. I hope you get some pics up soon.

Re: Got cats?

I have tons of these two together Hoopy. They are just so into each other. Usually they are entwined, all paws and head on top of the other, or grooming each other. Considering they have only been together a week tomorrow, they have bonded well.

Re: Got cats?

I'm sorry flygin, I just read your message. He was so beautiful. Both you and the vet did all you could, sometimes it just dosn't come out the way we want. Still in his short time he touched many lives. Very sad.

Re: Got cats?

Very sorry to hear that, Flygin. (It sounds as if the vets did the best they could; it's such a shame that it wasn't enough.)



And that's lucky, Tanga: they're using/taking over the same chair.

Re: Got cats?

Well yes it was Tig's chair, but she has made herself at home. The funny thing is we brought her a new bowl, bed etc etc. She eats out of Tig's bowl and he eats out of her's. She sleeps with him, wherever he decides to sleep, at the moment in another chair beside the fire and then on our bed when the fire dies down and she uses his litter tray and plays with his toys (why did we bother) Got to love cats!

Re: Got cats?

Must be awful to lose a kitten. My mum's friend lost her eldest cat recently.

I own a cat, a black semi-long cat with an orange tinge to her hair. I haven't a clue how old she is and what type of cat she is, cos she is a rescue cat and I know nothing about cats.

Anyway, she is a very loving cat and if it wasn't for the furballs....

She has a strange thing about wanting to sit on me, she gets this wierd look in her eyes "I will sit on you, sit on you, sit on you!" And she loves hugs, proper hugs, puts her paws on my shoulders and snuggles her head at my neck. She also likes to creep under the covers in the winter cos it gets really cold in my flat. LOVES TUNA! Can hear a tin opening at 50 miles!

Re: Got cats?

I'm so glad you explained that second pic. For a second there I thought the expression was the result of smelling your foot...

Sure is a cute little fella. How could anyone resist those big, doleful eyes?

Re: Got cats?

Ha, yeah, now you mention it. The look of bemused shock...

And he has got such big brown eyes. He's having a wash next to me now, and trying to nab my crisps.

Re: Got cats?

And I bet he's putting more effort into the latter activity...

Sigh. And now I miss having cats. I really must move somewhere it's safe to have them.

Re: Got cats?

We've got some interesting cats that live in our barn. Muffins and her sis smudgey are teeny-tiny cats. I estimate about 4-5 lbs, maybe. Our cat, Henry, who is normal sized, fell off the roof last year and hid for days int he barn - he became king because he is so big compared to all the wild cats - the cats are actually quite friendly, and little Muffins here is particularly so. We will be sad to leave her when we next move.

Re: Got cats?

That's a great cat, it has a wild look about it like a jungle cat.
