Billy is from moodiesburn just outside Glasgow , but he has been in the east of the city since he was 8 weeks and he looks very contented.

ha ha. im SUCH a pushover! nobribes required - just pull a weesadface and ill give in! I think Cats realise this very early on!. my resident master and mistress are being totally spoiled this week

.

Greenlaner - i live in the Islands but I lived in Edinburgh for years, my boy Ralphie (RIP) was a rescue cat from Leith. (nae quite a glesga cat but exactly the same amount o gallus

).

i'll post photies up when my boys arrive - they are going to have a bit of an epic journey getting here. The weather is fabulous here just now - so im hoping after last weeks gales - it stays beautiful for their trip.

You shameless bribe hussy you!

So - accidentally, eh? 'Spect us ter berleeve dat do ya?

Sending "always be best" vibes to Rowley and Coco.

I have come back to confess that i have now accidentally been 'owned' by a second savvy boy called Jackson

. The boys make their long journey home next week. My pampered pusses both 'know' something is afoot - Coco has turned into an absolute sook and Rowley is huffing and walking off when I try to speak to him (Ohhhhhh - i KNOW im in the doghouse!)

Next week will be VERY interesting. I have extra catnip, extra treats and some extra malty paste just in case!

Hi Den22 - I cant wait until next month when my wee manu makes his journey home. He's not a 'classic' savannah (hes a non standard colour) but hes a very oriental looking brown boy (i love orientals). Both of your babies are gorgeous (my 11yr old daughter has a massive soft spot for Bengals and for orientals...mind you - shes cat daft so she has a soft spot for all cats

but she particularly loves bengals and orientals

).

Sue - it started off well - sun was blazing this morning (mist hanging in the valley) - it was beautiful when I headed to work at 6am - but I got soaked walking home at 9pm!...its been pouring down most of the day

...thats normal for here...just waiting for the snow and windto top it off

My daft moogs loved being out in the rain all day

Am so pleased yesterday was a better day - and today's Friday (so that's always good). I know what yuo mean about photos. I don't have that many of my little old codger who we lost in April, aged 20 ("anna bit"). I had a few photos of him as a kitten and an 8 year old cat, but missed out on a lot. I made up for it in his last 5 years, when I took as many photos of him that I could - althuogh fair to say that looking at most of them it's Paddy snoozing on the sofa, Paddy snoozing in his radiator bed, Paddy snoozing int he sunshine....

The main thing is, you have those very special memories of Ralphie.

Hope the sun is shining today.

Hi Mysticmog and

to purrs

all your furbabies are gorgeous, loving Rowley & Coco they are beautiful.
Can't wait to see your Savanah

when it joins your family, my daughter loves the Savanah breed.
I have an oriental and a Bengal who also compliment each other really well

I am also slave to my 4 year old twin grandchildren who live with me and my daughter

don't know whose worse in the

stakes though.

Hi SueP my tuxy boy was called Ralph(ie), he was a rescue that we got from Edinburgh. He was a really happy healthy boy right up until the night before he passed. He slipped into a deep sleep in the morning and when we took him to the vets he said he wasn't aware of anything. he had a very happy and spoiled life with us - i think thats why he lasted to such a good age - lots of fields for him to romp in over the years. Im sad that I dont have any photos of him with his beautiful blue eyes (they went from amber to blue when he was really happy). its a cracking day here today. Im feeling much better (back to work) and my human babies have goneback to school today (youngest started high school). The moogs have spent all day between their outside dez res and sunbathing in the conservatory.

Hi Mysticmog - lovely to catch up on this and see your beautiful Lardybums

I loved that! And their cat burgling skills

What was the name of your handsum Tuxedo moggy? Didn't he do well to live to 19 - must've have been all the good lovin' you gave him.

Hope you've got decent weather again today and that you aren't feeling too homesick.

Hi Janeyk - thanks

they certainly know they are far higher up in the pecking order than we are! and we love them to bits.

Hi and

to Purrs

Lovely photos, your cats are gorgeous

love your username too

mysticmog · « **Reply #16 on:** August 07, 2011, 13:58:53 PM »

Hya Rosella Moggy, My daughter will be well chuffed that you like Coco!

(Coco is 'her' cat, Rowley is my sons - and everyone always falls for Rowleys charms - mainly because hes a seriously overgrown kitten and a total goof! as well as being a wee bit handsome). Coco is actually more of a lap-cat than Rowley is - hes Mr boombastic - always off wiggling his big bum somewhere, she is always taking in the scene, a wee bitty more wary of new people but way braver than him when it comes to 'catching' dinner. he kind of throws himdelf in the general direction of flys and bees - she nails them first go every time. They compliment each other really well - and watching them "tag-team" flys etc is interesting - they work well together! Coco actually has a beautiful nature

(although I think her colouring can make her look a wee bitty wild/grumpy at times). Shes a wee clever cookie - she taught Rowley how to do 'keyboard removals' with her bum - she's always figuring out how to break into places and is never anywhere near the crimescene

when Rowley gets caught red-pawed!

Gorgeous gorgeous cats but Coco is lush

Hi Tiggy's mum - Helen, I am already noticing how addictive it is

Im finding myself migrating on here when i shouldbe doing other things

. Rowley always manages to find peoples soft spots

Hes a wee charmer (just a big dopey sook really).
I picked the username cos of where im from, mymums 'spooky' ability to know EVERYTHING and cos I have been cat daft all my life

. I thought it would have gone as well but was quite delighted when it hadn't.

Tiggy's Mum · « **Reply #13 on:** August 06, 2011, 19:58:31 PM »

to Purrs

Glad you've found us, I'm sure you'll enjoy it here. It really is a very friendly forum with lots of friendly helpful advice, if ever needed, and of course lots of fun.

I do feel it my public duty to warn you though that it can be a teensy bit addictive

You have been warned

I LOVE the username, can't believe nobody thought of that before you as Purrs has been running coming up for 5 years now!

All your cats are gorgeous btw but

- I have a little soft spot for Rowley

mysticmog · « **Reply #12 on:** August 06, 2011, 17:45:02 PM »

Aww thanks - I think they are lovely - but then - I think every and all cats are lovely! Sheilarose - mine own the mac as well as owning me - they dont quite grasp that their lardybums are mebby a wee bit too big to fit behind/around it (and the keyboard is SUPPOSED to dangle by the cable! - all cats KNOW that - thats why they push it over with their lardybums...). nope - no trubble at all

- little angels

- pictures of innocnce

certifiable though - the pair of them! although Coco is particularly adept at looking innocent and moving away from the scene of the crime 'quickly'

. Poor Rowley isn't getting into kittymensa anytime soon

But they are both still babies - neither are 2 yet so still kittens in maineyland. your tuxedo baby looks gorgeous! I LOVE black and whites - they are sophisticated wee souls

Ed - your little madam is beautiful - she looks like she has a healthy dose of mainey in her (and if shes totally aware of her awesumness - she may well have! - they are well known for knowing they "got it going on"

madamcat (Edd) · « **Reply #11 on:** August 06, 2011, 17:14:47 PM »

Welcome to Purrs - gorgeous cats.

I have one cat - a bit like your Rowley - but just a moggy but a right little madam all the same

Hello and

sheilarose · « **Reply #9 on:** August 06, 2011, 17:04:05 PM »

OMG you got us both gasping! Your cats are

I bet they're never ever any trubbel

(I wonder if they have discovered their own bit on Purrs yet "from the cats mouths" - I think mine have, I keep catching them on the keyboard looking guilty).

mysticmog · « **Reply #8 on:** August 06, 2011, 16:23:05 PM »

Hi Liz I have Coco and Rowley as my Avatar - I will try and upload a piccy of my beautiful Ralphie but Manu does not 'move in' with me till sept - and im not sure how his current mum would feel about his piccy being posted - so I will post his piccy up when he 'officially' owns me

not sure if this will work - fingers crossed

Sheilarose - hope you feel better soon - owwwwies - cracked rib - hope your painkillers are good

sheilarose · « **Reply #7 on:** August 06, 2011, 15:41:56 PM »

""as im home sick just now. I would appreciate the sunshine more if i didnt feel so miserable just now ""

Aww poor you.

If it helps I cracked a rib on Wednesday, so am also a bit creaky just now, and hopped up on a cocktail of fabulous painkillers.

It's dull, cool and overcast here in that London, that at least might brighten your day a little more

.

Hope you can muster the strength for a cold drink or two this afternoon...I'm sure I will.

Do get some piccies on of the furbies, we like nothing more than a good ogle.

Hi SheilaRose, Sam and Angie

My moogs have got so used to being called a variety of 'pet' pet names that they will now respond to anything (as long as there is food available at the end of it - especially in Rowleys case). SheilaRose - its actually blazing sunshine here today - not that im getting to enjoy it as im home sick just now. I would appreciate the sunshine more if i didnt feel so miserable just now

sheilarose · « **Reply #4 on:** August 06, 2011, 15:00:34 PM »

Hope you're not getting too soggy, Mog!

Angiew · « **Reply #3 on:** August 06, 2011, 14:48:15 PM »

Hi Welcome,

I called one of my foster cats (Mog), Mystic Mog. It was was of the litany of names I used to say to him when he first came in after his accident and he was still concussed.

Pleased to meet you all
