Linney is much better for a sophisticated cat

Leroy was named by his initial Rescue Lady and 2nd Rescue never changed it. I thought about changing it but he seemed comfortable enough with it so 🤷🏼‍♀️

TheShellBeach · 11/04/2024 19:19

I think that all the Excellent Cats have good names.

Update on Linney's igloo:

He has ignored it all day, choosing instead to spend his time in the front garden, sleeping next to a plant pot.

But he did consent to move when he heard the Dreamies packet being opened inside the house.

Shell I'm always very impressed with how clean and white Linney looks. My sister had a white cat called Dusty, and he really lived up to his name 😆.

I have just spotted a rare Toby Toad blep.

Happy birthday to the idiot sisters and DC, @HouseofHolbein 🥳

We may have made a tactical error. Bought Scrumbles today because the shop had run out of Go-cat.
Let's just say they all like it, a lot, even before getting it out of the bag.
This may end up being a very expensive mistake 😲

And here is a study of Lenny showing off his long but rather unkempt whiskers.

He looks like a wise Guru.

Lovely pictures all.
@Grumpyoldpersonwithcats I can identify Basil with his amber eyes- but how do we tell the difference between Lenny and Karl?

Karl is handsome, debonair, and has true style and panache, whereas Lenny is a right scruffy Herbert.
I liken Karl and Lenny to Arnold Schwarzenegger and Danny DeVito in the film Twins. 🤣

YesItsMeIDontCare · 12/04/2024 21:16

You've gotta stop being so rude about poor Lenny, Grumpy 😱

RumNotRun · 12/04/2024 23:25

Ghostie says hi to everyone and thinks Lenny is perfect just the way he is.

Lenny is raffish, the very definition of bad boy cool.

RumNotRun · 13/04/2024 23:17

Toad couldn't let his sister Raven sleep undisturbed so he clambered over her and became "big spoon".

Devastating news on the Cheddar thread 💔

RumNotRun · 14/04/2024 14:00

Oh no, I've been reading the thread, hoping that Cheddar would perk up. Poor cat, and poor Toddler.

TheShellBeach · 14/04/2024 14:13

That's made me cry. It's so awful when one of them dies. Poor Toddler.

I went for a hug and a cry with DH when I read the news. Poor Toddler. I was so sure Cheddar would pull through. Will miss her little happy face in pics so much.

Breadcat24 · 14/04/2024 16:09

Poor Cheddar such a wonderful character. And poor Toddler so soon after Snorg

Toddlerteaplease · 14/04/2024 17:21

Thanks to all of you. I'm heartbroken. But it's lovely to know she was loved and you were all holding my hand this morning. When no one else was there. Best friend busy. (Not his fault) and parents not answering phone.

JaceLancs · 14/04/2024 21:05

@Toddlerteaplease so sorry to hear your sad news
big ((((hugs)))))

Defiantlynot41 · 14/04/2024 23:20

@Toddlerteaplease we are all thinking of you and lovely Cheddar x
