    Our little cat, Luna.

    She has an interesting backstory: one day my wife and I were peacefully having breakfast, when somebody rang the doorbell. When I opened the door, nobody was there, but a shoe box was left on our doorstep. Inside the shoebox was the tiniest little kitten I have ever seen.

    We thought she wouldn't survive but thankfully our friend's cat had kittens at the time and served as a foster mother for Luna.

    It was 14 years ago. She's still as zippy and as tiny as ever (weighs only 2.5kg). And the gentlest little creature ever, never aggressive, but always ready to purr.

    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

    Thank you Marco! She definitely does, especially when she decides to jump on top of us at 3:00 AM

    I'm a great believer in rescue and rehoming animals, there are so many looking for a forever home.
    My little Mia came from the RSPCA having been signed over after her previous owner had to go into a nursing home. She's always been an indoor cat and being very timid probably not a bad thing. I have to watch her diet as she's something of a food hoover but she's very affectionate and great company.

    Thanks Pavel, I wouldn't be without her. Your Luna is very pretty, she must be tiny at 2.5kg, Mia's around 4.5 so I can imagine how petite Luna is.

    My last cat was over 15kg. He was enormous and all muscle, not fat. 4 feet long stretched out on the floor from tip of tail to front paws.
