[Morning Glory]

She is 19 1/2 and can change from a placid, loving cat to an absolute wild cat in the blink of an eye. She changes colour too. She can be nearly all grey most of the year

but in the autumn she dons her camouflage suit!

That is some age! And she looks really healthy.

That is some age! And she looks really healthy.

She's starting to show her age a bit now. She can't climb like she used to and seems to prefer life as an indoor cat. She has her food on a non-food preparation counter top (out of "harm's" way!) but now needs a chair as a step up. I think her eyesight may be going too, but she's not doing badly considering she was found dumped on a doorstep and badly bitten when only a few weeks old.

Mine is a pest!

My brother's friends had a Manchester terrier about 50 years ago. It was spoilt rotten and was a right little ******* You are the first person I've ever come across since that has had one.

They are listed as a vulnerable breed by the kennel club so not many about. Not many pups born each year and there is a waiting list if you want to have one (I wouldn't advise it - greyhounds are much more sensible).

I've never known a sensible greyhound!

This is Dennis:

This is Black:

They fight.

 

[Morning Glory]

Looks like Black came off worse!

 

[Yorky]

Black fights with many of the other cats in the village. Dennis is much less aggressive. She tends to run rather than fight.

Dennis is a girl?

Dennis is a girl?

Yes. Didn't you notice?

Actually my wife found her with the umbilical still attached. She can't have been more than a day old. The mother could have been killed on the road; we don't know.

My two black cats had a free for all fight today. It ended up with Polly hiding under the duvet on the sofa, Tippy standing on the armchair well out of the way, cat food and water everywhere including over some of my books, and the front room and kitchen looking like a bomb had hit them. All because Lenny decided to pinch Rocky's lunch

Who won?

Who won?

Neither of them or both, depending which way you look at it. Rocky's dry food dish was full of water, so I tipped the water out and gave Lenny the soggy food that was left. Rocky was given fresh dry food in a dry dish. Lenny will eat anything; Rocky is very picky. No cats were starved as a result of this fight

This is Sam, our mutt from a dogpound..he's blind in left eye (had sad past), but he sees very well while I'm cooking.....

Dennis has this infuriating habit of waking me up every morning at dawn (currently 05:45). When I eventually rise having had enough, she goes off and sleeps somewhere. Today was in the bathroom.
