I brought home two terrified rescue cats. One promptly hid under the kitchen cupboard and I didn't see her for a week and the other one was slightly more confident. I am so proud of the progress they've made. Despite their awful in life.. They are still rubbish at catting but are so loving and affectionate. Can't believe how lucky I am to have them ruling my life! (Sorry for the gratuitous post!)

ISa, Dyson V6 animal, it's brilliant. Actually Until the hot weather they shed very little, much less than short haired cats we had as children. They just leave it lying around in little clumps and it doesn't stick to your clothes.

I can imagine that. Cat power required though!

Considering they'd spent all their five years living in a cattery and were not in good condition when they were rescued, they've done amazingly!!

They're wonderful - although I still don't know how you tell them apart half the time. Grin

Cozie, it is quite difficult but they have different shaped eyes. Magic AKA Snorgmaiden has almond eyes and snorts like a pig at time Coz of her tiny nose. Maia AKA fattycat is smaller and has huge round eyes and is very bossy. Not my choice of names. I hasten to add! One of them was chasing a moth last night, and for the life of me I couldn't work out which one of them it was!!

And having eye snot wiped on you, being woken up by them slurping from their glass of water, coughing fits, sitting on your head at 3 am and making you give up your pillow?
