Tiggi the Maine Coon. He's a big lad & a right bruiser... If next doors Jack Russel finds it way into our garden he'll chase it out !
We now have four cats and love them all. Its funny though, how some pets stand out as the ones you have loved most through the years. This was Lucy. Devilish as she looks. Miss her still.

After a bit of photoshop, even more like her

Just realised they are a bit small - another Photoshop adjustment

Feeling gutted, lost Roger (ginger tom on page 20) to a car last Friday :(. I found him in lying in the road. Tamed him from feral and have scarred hands to show for it, he was just one year old. He loved nibbling toes, catching mice, bossing the other kits, playing in the apple trees, helping with the cooking, and curling up in front of the fire. We miss him dearly.
So sorry to hear that Claire.
Yes it's tough losing a pet. My sympathy.
Oh Claire.. so sad to read that.Quote:

Gosh, that photo is 4 years old now - was his birthday. Couldn't make it to his birthday yesterday because I've hurt my knee :(
Hi Claire, so sorry about Roger, we have just spent the afternoon saying goodbye and burying our beloved Foxy who passed a few weeks ago , the sense of loss has been unbearable , the love of a cat is such a precious gift.
Paul
Thanks to all for your kind thoughts, and best wishes to you Paul & your family. It's not easy losing a friend, even those with four legs who think nothing of cleaning their bum in public!
Hi Claire,
I'm really sorry to hear about Roger. Losing a much loved pet, especially in those circumstances, is always a horrible thing. Perhaps in due course, it's an opportunity to give another wee moggie the chance of having a loving home?
That's how we usually cope with these matters: create a positive out of a negative. Anyway, try not to let it get you down too much.
Marco.

Bobby looks lovely, I had a Whippet some while ago which is closely releated to the Bedlington Terrier, they are wonderful animalsQuote:

Do many people have bunnies which live in the house like Woody above?
You forgot to mention the petrol cans (which were probably full)Quote:

Actually Bobby is a NEBOSH qualified Health and Safety Advisor and was on Fire watch duty at the time :D, he points when something is wrong :eyebrows:

This is our wee lad Oscar...
Just in from the rather warm rain and thunder/lightening, belly full of tuna and now time to dry off and catch up in sleep seeing as he was wild overnight chasing his paper balls around the landing upstairs... Not great when you've been supping bourbon all night haha ;)
We have two house bunnies, they have free run of the room in the day. they pretty much litter trained themselves, we just put the tray down and they started using it. They make great house pets as they are so cute and friendly, they come and jump all over you when you go in and sit with them.Quote:

My poor old pooch is in the vet's at the moment. He got a thorn or splinter in a back foot about three weeks ago and it's had an abscess ever since. He's had several visits to the vet, but it hasn't healed, so he's having investigative surgery right now and the affected area will be cleaned out. Hopefully he should be able to come home later today. The bills are mounting, but I don't begrudge him. He's a sweet old chap.
Poor little pooch, I hope he is bounding around again soon.Quote:

Got to do it though eh?

We found a fantastic vet, she didn't charge us for the first check up and nail clip and charged £30 less than she quoted to spay them both.
We are west country though.
Tippy is a very contented looking member of the family, hope all is well with him.

Her name is Mishu, but she was also given the nickname Pow Meow from a few of the younger family members. She was originally a street cat; found her as a toddler when she decided to peek her head into the house when I was doing the laundry years ago. Mishu is quite old now, but that doesn't stop how energetic and lively she is. She loves to play, and she keeps herself extremely clean. Many visitors quickly fall in love with her due to how accepting and playful she is. She loves people, which I've never seen in a cat before. Most shy away from people, she's quite the opposite. I definitely love her very much!
Cheers,
Chris.
Our departed Freddie was a people cat, he always knew who wasn't a cat lover so always went up to them! Most got to like him as well.
lovely looker she is....mine was the opposite but if she decided to like someone then they had a pal for lifeQuote:

Sorry to say that we lost our little boy a couple of weeks ago... he was run over... such a shame as we have recently got a new kitten (Winni) who had been getting on with him so well.... real shame and big loss to our family.Quote:

Traumatic in the extreme for all concerned especially Katherine our daughter.
Wow Rob I am really sorry to hear that... it is funny how close you get to animals, irrelevant whether they are a cat.. dog... Tigger was such a big part of our family and now is gone... I am sure you understand with Bonnie!
Sorry to hear about that Paul :(
Take extra care of the next one!!

One very unhappy Orange.fr:(
he came in last night, had his dinner as normal and then settled in his usual place on the sofa. Suddenly noticed he was shaking. Bit of a shock to see half the flesh on his leg exposed, obviously a bit of delayed shock.
Straight to the vet and he was kept in overnight. Good thing I had just sold the REL as the bill used up most of the sale price:eek:
He is going to be a bit upset with the collar, watching him trying to back away from it is rather funny. Poor old lad, a couple of weeks at least until the stitches come out. He won't be going out either which will frustrate him hugely.
