Title: Lap Cats
Post by: LeighK on October 13, 2007, 18:34:32 PM

eHi folks,

I read something on the web that made me laugh about British Shorthairs not being "lap cats", YEAH RIGHT!, When I'm at home I virtually never have a moment when i don't have at least one of my three on my lap, love it. Either i've got the three oddest British shorthairs in world or they haven't read the operating manual :). Anyone else have the same thing ?.

Cheers

Leigh

Hi my mums cat must not have read the manual either as she is always on someones knee - she literally waits for someone to sit down before she claims their knee!!!!!

Leigh yours have a different operating manual as they are domestic shorthairs eg lovely moggy. British shorthairs are pedigree cats  ;D

Ah, that would explain it then :), said on Alfie's and Frankie's adoption paperwork "breed : British Shorthair" and Frankie fits the profile to a T, big, gentle, appearance etc.

Hiya,

All my puds have always been "moggies"  the closest that I've ever been to owning a pedigree pud was my bridge babes Oliver and Scott who were both 1/2 persian.

Cheers
