Title: The art of relaxation
Post by: afghanman on October 09, 2009, 03:18:48 PM
This my lovely old tom called BT (big tom)
He lived in the garden of my house I am renovating, Just turned up about five years ago, beaten up and covered in sores, so I treated him and fed him and made a bed in my workshop that he could enter through a hole I cut in the door.
He loved to hang out and would climb ladders to sit with me when I was working on the roof.
Sadly he was very old and had aids and died a couple of weeks ago :'( miss him loads.

That's a very cool looking Moggy.  :)
We'd love a cat but it would deter all the other wildlife we have in our garden. Mind you, next door's black cat, known to us as Meow Meow cos that's what he said when we asked him his name, wanders up the garden & the pheasants that frequent our feeders completely ignore him.

Lovely old tomcat!

I've got a tabby and white tom (well he used to be a tom) and I have a whole file of photos labelled 'Laid back cat' - cos he is!  Must be something in the breeding!

me mums cat has a thing (like all cats) for cardboard boxes. having said that it rarely gets in the one me mum has in her front room. but when i go round and tell it 'get in yer box' 99 per cent of the time it'll do it straight away. 'mitzi' likes a rolled up newspaper, roll up the paper and she's over to you like a shot. tap her with it just in front of her tail and it goes scatty, just like if it had got a whiff of catnip. mitzi must be about 12 now.
cats will chill almost anywhere
