Post Your Pets

He does look rough :-)

I reeeeaaallly hope it gets funded, I would love to go and chill out with a room of cats and a slice of cake for the afternoon! I can't have a cat in my flat it's too little and I have no outside space. :-(

You can (well, you might have to have the cake before or after) - lots of cat rescue / adoption centres need volunteers to go and socialise with the cats, their core workers and volunteers who run the place don't have time. Phone your nearest one and ask - be warned though, even if you're not usually allergic to cats, you might need an antihistamine before visiting!

^Oo never knew that, thanks!

^^ This is a very good point. Cats that only see the same people every day can become very wary ( sometime downright terrified ) of strangers. This sadly makes them near impossible to re-home, as they hide whenever anybody comes looking to adopt.

Parents' new kitten Jaffa. The best kind of distraction from my dissertation.

Good name.

A prison spokesperson was quoted by local paper Estado de S. Paulo as saying: "It's tough to find out who's responsible for the action as the cat doesn't speak."

it would be easy if it was a dog, but walking a cat up and down in front of a line-up is not going to be so decisive...

I used to have a ginger cat called Jaffa...oooh the memories

today is day 4 of the second attempt to put duckie on a diet. He's stopped swatting me in the face and launching himself at my sleeping body to get the bowl refilled.. instead he's decided to catch additional food.

He's not been bringing them back to the boat, but his farts tell me the story...

today at 7.30 i jumped out of bed because I heard the skuffle of a fight on the roof.
before I got to the door there was the heavy thud and bounce of hitting the back deck.
I flung open the doors to see a big black ball fall into the river and duckie bee-lined in the boat.
I jumped out on the deck.
I scanned the water and could not find the black ball.
Nor did i see the tell tale "v" of something swimming to shore.
I looked everywhere around the boat.
All sides, nothing.
I do not want someone's pet to drown.

Then i realised there was about 4-5 people on the tow path and bridge all stopped staring at me.
I was in a t-shirt and knickers.
Went back in boat.
Noticed theres a large amound of black and white feathers over the deck.. and some blood.
Duckie is bloody.
Its not his blood.

Personally I am so glad the Coot got away.

How do you know it didn't sink?

ummm.. I'm hoping it didnt.

is it wrong to be just a wee bit proud? I mean its sort of impressive. Right?

You got a cold hard killer on your hands!

nb I'm sure the bird was fine.

(Sharks got it)
