    Smile New kitten, chez-Marco

    Some images of our new kitten, a ginger tom, called Emrys. He's 9 weeks old, and a right wee scamp!








    I'm ferocious, I am, all 6 inches of me.......





    He loves his furry hot water bottle...








    And our beautiful big girl now, Abella, the 'leggy princess' (she’s only 1 and a half, and the size of a small lion!)

    Oh wonderful! I bet he's a naughty little puss and a real character
    Tear down these walls; Cut the ties that held me
    Crying out at the top of my voice; Tell me now if you can hear me

    Lol - defo, Dom! Torties are gorgeous

    And yes, Chris (and Dave), he is a handful, but huge fun. He's a right little rascal (so cute) and chases the girl cats around the house - well he is a boy, and he's not been 'done' yet!

    Little does he know, though, that they have!!

    Just wait until he's six months old or so and starting to "swagger" before considering him for "the op." Our Titchpuss never lost his "Catitude" and was a very dear friend and companion, as well as boss to Ollie, who remained the "baby" of the pair.. My Gawd I miss 'em so

    Time for a new moggy Dave, there's plenty in need of a good home...

    I know, but we can't for various reasons at the moment. Anyway, Mungo fron next door would get the hump - we're "The Annexe" and he comes by to keep us in check at least once a day. I'd go mad if he didn't...
