Met Frankie, Alfie and Suzie today

[maryas]

How nice for you Clare.  Bet the puddies enjoyed all the extra attention.  I too hope that your arms were ok after holding Frankie as my friend has 2 cats and George, the black one in attached photo weighs a tonne or 2 or 3 or 4..........  They are adorable though and they let me share their bed when I sleep over.  That's George and Samantha, not my friends Dean and Terry!!!

You can see from attached photo how big George is (and that's just his back end!!)

Don't you just love Samantha's little black nose.

Defo sounds like you need to do some food shopping then    I guess man cannot survive on nibbles and mince pies alone 

We didn't make it to Wilkonsons in the end, ran out of time unfortunately.  We spent most of our time mooching in Bentalls and John Lewis, I managed to spend most of my vouchers as well, bought a really nice pair boots, a tennis top, a really nice beady necklace, and a pump to use to inflate my gym ball!  And they were all free courtesy of a very generous client giving us vouchers 

Glad the boys and Suzie weren't too traumatised by having 2 weird people in their home 

I'll have a go with the piccy later, its not so much the uploading thats an issue, its actually trasferring the pics as they're on my camera phone, and getting them onto the computer somehow ..... there's been a glitch with it recently so need to fix it

Good morning hun,

I really enjoyed meeting you and John yesterday and so did the puds. It's great to see how much they've all come out of their shells with visitors as they used to be very wary but they're getting more and more at ease now and as you said I think that cats can tell "cat people" as I generally have the same experiences with other people's cats. You were indeed honoured when Suzie let you stroke her as she's the most timid of them all, apart from my mum whose cat she was of course and myself AFAIK you're the only other person that she's let stroke her. I'm watching the boys going potty with their toys this morning as I write this, Alfie's beating up the wiggly waggler and that catnip cushion that you got them and Frankie's having fun with the turbo scratcher thing chasing the ball round and rounds.

I hope that you had a good shopping trip, Kingston's got pretty much everything that one needs, did you manage to make it to Wilkison's ?. Shortly after you left I popped up to the home again to see mum and she was in good form and then I got a Chinese take away on the way home as a bit of a treat to myself

Hi Licia, hope that  you all had a super Christmas

  to Maxy and Oliver

Cheers

Leigh and the gang (L.A.F.S)

P.S I hope that your arms aren't aching too much from picking Frankie up, I told you he was heavy  he makes me laugh when he jumps up onto things as he looks just like a black Garfield as all his weight's in his bum and he sort of hangs on for dear life with his friont legs and scrabbles frantically with his back legs to get a grip before gravity takes over  the funniest thing is when he does that head shaking thing that they do (why do they do that?) and his front legs do the splits, he looks so funny. I often think that I could not imagine life without the cats as they are such a constant source of joy and amusement.

i've got to do a food shop this morning as the food situation is looking flatter than a pancake that's just been run over by a garden roller and then trampled by a herd of stampeding Elephants, they of course have still got oodles of food left

That will be great!!    You can just go to the "Attach" below while you are writing the post, click on "file" (or something, it is written in italian here but the button between the blank box - where the file location will go - and "(more attachments)", then select the pic from your computer.  It will upload.  The pic needs to be smaller than 150kb!  If you need more assistance let me know (I will be around for a bit longer...)

I did manage to get one, will try and upload it from home pc when I can figure it out .... my work set-up is much simpler 

[dolcetta46]

Wow, I am envious!!   Glad that you guys had a lovely time together!!  Any pics taken?

We popped over to Kingston today to do some shopping, and to meet up with Leigh again and meet the furries 

Both boys are gorgeous, and I had a little play with Frankie, and a tummy tickle with Alfie    So lovely to see yet more healthy FIV puds 

I was even honoured enough to be able to get a gentle head rub with Suzie as well, which wasn't really expected, so I'm very pleased 

Thanks for your hospitality today hun, and was good to meet up again, and of course if you're ever near Woking let me know so I can return the favour
