Nice pic of tiddles.
Cats will sit on anything, especially if it's not designed for that purpose..........
You still getting visits from Little Timid, and the big guy whose name escapes me?Quote:

No, I wouldn't have thought that, let's hope that you have many years more with her.Quote:

The present Little Timid has a patchy face a bit like your Abella.
Cheers, Paul. She's in fine health (as are all our cats):)
Abella is a tortoiseshell, so I suspect that your Little Timid is the same. Tortoiseshell tabby cats usually have a lovely laidback nature, quite independent, but also affectionate. Our house wouldn't be a home without our cats, and I'm sure you feel the same about yours:cool:

I love Tabbies, Mia told me to say that...https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...9f70d6b161.jpg

Awesome, mate. You can't beat a coal/log fire, and cats will always find the warmest place to sleep!:)
Marco.
Well to begin with he really wasn't sure; when he felt brave he'd be right at the top of the rug, just to get some residual heat...Quote:

But mid rug is his usual spot; means he can turn and turn to warm whatever's not regularly ;)
He may have heard SME are no longer selling arms and trying to keep this one close to home :)
December bump for Mia, the cutest moggie on AOS. Only my opinion of course, other cute cats are available... :)Quote:

She's worth it though :) And I bet she can tell if you try to fob her off with that Scottish fish farm cack.Quote:

The late Tiddles went mad for smoked salmon.
I'll try her with chicken livers, if she won't eat them I will.Quote:

On the other hand she does like the prawns out of my 'special' Chinese curry. And this morning she's been sharing my crumpets, but I think that's just the butter.Quote:

They always look so happy when they sprawl out. Mia love's relaxing on the back of the sofa. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...58b9b19c4a.jpg

RIP Reeves

Very sad.. poor soul. Hope the other doesnt pine too much. Not sure leashing a cat is a good idea, but understand why. Cats will be cats tho, and if used to getting out it will annoy.
Hope you get over it soon. I lost mine a long time ago now but still feels like fairly recent
Thanks Grant.
He definitely wants to go out (he did sneak out earlier on but managed to get him back)
Spoke to the vets this morning and they told me to keep an eye on him as they can show signs of grief (normally not eating) but so far he seems OK.
Sorry to hear of the loss of Reeves, always a sad time when loosing a pet.
That's very sad news Andy, I hope all of you will be OK. I have always had indoor cats, I know it's not a natural life for them and it means a lot more thought required to ensure they have plenty to fill their days. My little Mia still has all the health checks and jabs just in case she goes out.
CheersQuote:

Lets give it a few days and see how Mortimer gets on.
Very sorry for your loss Andy :(
Monster, for over two years has been visiting pretty well daily for food up to now. Not seen him/ her for about four days now. Hopefully he/ she will return tomorrow.
