It is totally impossible to look at that without yawning. 

My parents used to have cork tiles in their kitchen years ago and the cat would climb up them and sometimes onto the ceiling when it was a kitten, the getting up was fine it's the getting back down that used to stump him.

I'm going to print out one of those snake pictures for James (the cat) and see if he can see it, although he quite often digs on paper like the cat in the YouTube clip anyway, even when there's nothing on it.

Ramps for the water voles!

Kind of cute in a caring sort of way...




Said goodbye to my oldest cat yesterday. Blind, almost deaf, arthritis, kidney problems, weight loss it was time, but he still loved a cuddle and a stroke and would purr contentedly

I'm sorry to hear that.   He looks like he had a good life, I love his scraggly old face in that picture.

Carrot's a rarity, a female ginger tabby (its x-linked recessive and she's therefore homozygous recessive for this particular gene).  Not as rare as male calico's (tortoiseshell), but they have trisomy at the X-chromosome, hence the rarity.

Clever kitteh!

[magpie]

We've had this conversation before, I remember now, I called her a boy last time too (becasue gingers generally are), sorry Carrot!

Quokkas \o/

Really friendly little animals, not many left on mainland Australia by virtue of  "Quoka kicking" being a bit of a fad a hundred years or so ago.  Loads on Rottnest Island though, they're very friendly, and like licking the salt off of you after swimming in the sea...

I picked these two up from the RSCPA today

Cats by Grubes, on Flickr

How lovely are the Quokkas?!!  They have such happy wee faces.

And cow print cats!  I take it they are siblings, Grubes, I love how similar their markings are, like a matching set.

I know! They even make even a grumpy old git like me smile

yes siblings
I only wanted one cat but ... I could not bare to split them. They litterally wrap there bodies round each and become one large cow print ball.

You did the right thing to take both, definitely.  Two are not really any more hassle than one and they will keep each other company.
