I have a 20 year old umbrella with a wooden handle that still bears the teeth marks of a certain young Paddy Padmeister from his teething days.  Always makes me smile   :)

I got needle marks in my new windows, it just so happened my windows were being painted on the very day we first trapped Tufty - talk about bad timing.

The marks are still there, they remind me that...

The doors were new in the Spring and look as though they have woodworm thanks to the tiny holes made by sharp kitten claws.  And to think I invested in a good quality scratching post.  :rofl:

The real irony is that when we decorated earlier this year we knew we intended getting a cat (or two) in the autumn so left off buying a new carpet in case the kitties scratched it, and had the old suite cleaned rather than replaced for the same reason.  We also bought extra wallpaper in case they took a fancey to it.  It never occurred to us that they could destroy the doors.  :doh:  But then they wouldn't cats if they didn't come up with something we mere mortals hadn't thought of would they.  :Luv2:

I think a huge cat tree is needed before they take to climbing the wardrobes and curtain rails :evillaugh:

They only climb like that when they're shut in 'their' room and see or hear us us moving about in the hall or kitchen.  As soon as the door is opened they shoot out like express trains.  So far we haven't had a problem with them climbing when they're not confined.

They are both stunning and have obviously been very well trained to be junior terrorists by the residents of Pawss Inn :rofl:

..............Daisy and Dandelion (Dandy) :Luv2:  :Luv2: 

Some of you already know their story but for those who dont, here it  is.  They were found clinging to a style in woodland miles from civilisation, by a marathon runner out training on the August Bank Holiday Monday.  Realising they must have been dumped    >:(  :(  :'(  he took them to Paws Inn and it is a tribute to the care they received there that last week I was able to bring home two healthy, happy, loving and absolutley adorable kittens.  They are now about 19/20 weeks old and full of fun and mischief.  As you can see, they have already discovered Purrs.
