GrinGrinthat's one new year diet technique - supportive isn't he?!

I love the fridge cat! I've often seen the title and wondered what the thread is about and am delighted to find it's exactly what it says on the tin.

My cat is going through a particularly obnoxious stage where she wants to be in because it's cold yet she resents it so overnight she knocks off everything and anything left on the kitchen surfaces.

I come downstairs half awake and momentarily worry I've been burgled or ds has had a rave whilst I slept.

I want a fridge cat! Mine are all too lazy to make the effort, lol

Such beauties! Love these threads. My not is being kept in (injured paw) so he's sulking and very sad. Love all your pictures, though 😻😻
They do take the snow and cold very personally, don't they?! I get the looks of, "Oh. So now YOU'RE going to make it freezing are you? That's just typical of your foolish human behaviour." 😾
No mate, I honestly don't control the weather... 😂

Fluffycloudland77 · 03/01/2021 18:06

We control a lot of their lives, it’s not a huge leap to imagine outside temperature is as controllable as inside temperature.

GoodQueenAlysanne · 03/01/2021 18:09

Sleeping. It's such a hard life being a cat...

*Excuse my hairy bedsheets, they're getting re-washed and de fuzzed, as soon as poor hard done by cat hears the sound of her dinner being dished out, and runs to scoff it like she only gets fed once a week. She'll be most displeased when she realises she can't go immediately back to bed, but has to doze on the sofa for a while.

Shock, horror, probe!

Lenny and Sybil (who generally detest each other) are curled up together with DW.

All the smiles for this thread.

Is there such a thing as non hairy bedsheets?

My world is hairy.

HugoPhurst · 03/01/2021 21:46

How have I got so many usernames?!
I am also currently @Hugophurst and @ChristinaMarlowe, apparently. You gave me excellent and very useful advice on my boys foot, @fluffycloudland77 . So grateful!
I am still showing as @Misswritenow but left my education role so wanted to go back to @ChristinaMarlowe and so far haven't managed it. Muppetry.

Yes, it's not a stretch that they think we control the elements, is it?! Such amazing creatures. Give me a cat over a human any day. Present company excepted, naturally!

HugoPhurst · 03/01/2021 22:04

Name change fiasco! I am Hugophurst, MissWriteNow and the original Christina_Marlowe and have given up trying to rectify the name change situation! Happy new year and love to all lovely cat people here. Thanks for all recent help in the forum's and I'm so glad some old favourites are well following the festive period. Love the pictures and updates. Hopefully my boy will be better soon and back being photographed and forced upon your eyes. Very sad about lovely Tippi, @want2beme, I did post at the time but with so many daft and irreversible name changes it might have been missed. Hope you are ok lovely. Just the Doll and Bertie now? Thinking of your wee cat family. Happy new year to you all. I am back to stay now. Very odd year! Thought we might need to get rid of my boy (due to the drama of living on the game reserve) and too sad seeing all the lovely cats here.... We won't give in! Staying both location wise and group wise! Was merely a midcat crisis...! Hope you are all warm and furry despite the chill!

Snuggling. Even though they usually pretend to hate each other.

Yes indeed @TheLongRider we are deep in toddler land. The 3 of them are best buds though. Seems like yesterday I was posting about Freya balancing on my bump!

@want2beme so sorry to read about your loss xx

Today I've been on call (it's a Bank Holiday here) and Freya has been helpfully being my right-hand phone cat

There's something intrinsically calming about a cat helping you work.

Unless they take over the bag of ironing.Hmm

@Oldraver If she's his girlfriend I'd be giving him support on leaving a violent relationship. She keeps nipping and swiping him when all he wants to do is play. He flops onto the ground and she stalks up to him with her ears pinned back trying to swipe him. He's too good natured and comes running back into the house while she glowers at him from the windowsill.

You don't have a cat, you are the proud owner of a red squirrel!

LMAO @ red squirrel. Apparently that is my deamon
