He’s trying to buy her love - tragic, really. She’s only got eyes for you.

Fluffycloudland77 · 13/02/2022 20:23

Yeah it’s not working. After dreamies she gives him side eyes for 30 seconds, decides that’s enough attention and leaves. He did bump her head on a plate Friday night though….

Isn’t tm Captains anniversary of meeting the M&S charcuterie et fromage section?.

Supersimkin2 · 13/02/2022 22:03

It is! Two years of perfect harmony, 3 items for £7!!

I love the little fellow to bits. He’s even accepting hugs of happiness, he purrs.

Chopped herring with apple and celery on yellow sticker tonight.

Ah happy anniversary for tomorrow, Lana and Cap'n. Such a handsome boy.

Walter's been doing the Hokey Cokey. In, out, in, out. Driving me mad.

I just tried to dry paws off much to ollies amusement and paws disgust
"No towel. Am CAT. Go away now and hand me the ham"

Surely this is the ideal way for the CofE to increase church attendance.

The service with the animals in the Vicar of Dibley is one of my favourite all time comedy episodes.

Grumpyoldpersonwithcats · 14/02/2022 10:33

I've met a few Cathedral cats through singing, and very unusually someone brought a small, well behaved, and quite cute dog to choir practice on Sunday morning just gone. The dog seemed to like everyone except me. Clearly an animal of advanced sensibilities Grin
I rather like the idea of a church animal, even the archetypal poor church mouse.

I think Leo the cat at Canterbury Cathedral definitely increased online attendances during lockdown. I think it was YetAnotherSpartacus who first posted on here about him. Here's a compilation!

Happy Combined Gotcha/Valentine's Day Supersimkin2 and Capn 💖

Happy belated Galentine's Day to all the Litter Tray aficionados.

I visited a very ancient chapel in Sussex with a Church Sheep. She was spherical, friendly and greedy - stood at the entrance welcoming visitors and being patted senseless. Her wool was about a foot thick, lovely.

The diocese paid her a salary annually for sorting out the graveyard grass.

Grumpyoldpersonwithcats · 14/02/2022 11:24

Spherical Sheep
Sounds like the next Marvel Superhero Grin

YetAnotherSpartacus · 14/02/2022 11:37

I think it was YetAnotherSpartacus who first posted on here about him

I think it was me! What a memory!

Supersimkin2 · 14/02/2022 13:47

It was you Spart and the memory is unforgettable - Leo made me laugh for the rest of my life.

Capn sat on my coat this am so I couldn’t go out. But I came back with a sack of snacks from Pets at Home so the disobedience was overlooked.

pawpaws2022 · 14/02/2022 13:57

Didn't get the job
He said the feedback was I’m excellent at what I do and to place me in the right job. Got down to 2 of us and one was more confident

Fluffycloudland77 · 14/02/2022 14:06

Well that’s upsetting. The customers would have all been Audi drivers so you’re best off out of it anyway. There will be other SA jobs.

Grumpyoldpersonwithcats · 14/02/2022 14:08

@pawpaws2022
Very sorry about that - it's a complete sod getting to the last two and not getting the job (been there several times myself Hmm).
Good luck for next time.

TheLongRider · 14/02/2022 14:23

Flowers I hope Ollie is comforting you.

pawpaws2022 · 14/02/2022 14:24

@TheLongRider

Flowers I hope Ollie is comforting you.
If you mean stinking out the litter tray RIGHT NEXT TO ME, then yes HmmGrin
Toddlerteaplease · 14/02/2022 14:52

@nettie434 my bishop friend was trying to get his cats to appear on his lockdown videos. Betty can be heard yowling in one. They came in for the rehearsals but disappeared for the real thing. Typical!

Fluffycloudland77 · 14/02/2022 15:13

Brian Eno did an interview on tv with his black cat behind him giving the camera piss off it’s nap time vibes. Think it’s on YouTube.

pawpaws2022 · 14/02/2022 16:01

Ollie has just snatched a piece of ham. Where from you ask? Out of paws mouth Blush

Allergictoironing · 14/02/2022 16:06

@YetAnotherSpartacus just realised that means you live not too far from me, a Kentish Maid through & through (i.e. west of the county)

Papergirl1968 · 14/02/2022 18:22

Aww, sorry to hear that Paws. It's shitty but look upon it as it's their loss.
