As we approach the festive season, they're already finessing their plans and recalling last year's successes............

Not that I'm suggesting that Linney is in any way a 'rufty tufty' cat - he's clearly a cat of refinement 😁.

Grumpyoldpersonwithcats · 24/12/2024 21:19

So have you renamed the broon one to 'Oor Wullie' yet?
Like Linney - my first cat was a rufty tufty Glasgow street cat. I always reckoned he miaowed with a Glasgow accent. 😁

Edited

Jeez, no.
He's already got a plethora of names.

Thug Cat
Gizmo
Mr. G
Guillermo
The Broon One

Oh and Linney definitely has a Glasgow accent. I even call him McLinney sometimes.

I never call him Linnekins and anyone who says I do is a liar

@RumNotRun No, köttur is right. But kisi is like puss or kitty 😺 Kettle is too cute to be a köttur 😄

Kettle is definitely cute.
Are you feeling better @Esgaroth?

Edited to ask @EmpressaurusKitty the same question, as I got the two of you mixed up.

I agree, he is very cute.

I've never been ill! I'm feeling great having an aperol spritz and just finished playing a board game with the family.

Esgaroth · 24/12/2024 21:52

Haha cross post with the edit.

Vixen and Kitty appear to have similar tastes. Vix lived in her last brown paper bag for at least a week, leaving it only to use the litter tray or eat.

Be grateful she left the bag to use the litter tray.

Sorry. I realised that after I posted.

Quite a bit better, thanks, @TheBroonOneAndTheWhiteOne. Although now I want an aperol spritz!

So do I! Love an Aperol Spritz.

We've got a Heidsieck champagne for tomorrow.

I couldn’t keep up with these threads, but wanted to wish you all a very merry Christmas from me and Louie (the dancing cat). He’s been remarkably good with the Christmas tree, but on Sunday I caught him licking fat out of the grill pan which was resting on the side post cooking bacon sandwiches, so swings and roundabouts…

Have smashing days, excellent cats and all who slave for them!

A very merry Christmas to all cat slaves and kitties from the Defiant household., who are looking forward to roast turkey and ham tomorrow

Merry Christmas everyone, feline and human.

Frank has woken up to see if it's turkey time yet.

Merry Christmas to all feline overlords and their underlings, and hope those who were poorly are feeling bright as a button by now 🎄😻

TheBroonOneAndTheWhiteOne · 24/12/2024 21:15

Ha!

I haven't seen The Broons in decades, I am sure the grandpa was alive in the last one I read, and I notice the bairn is still a bairn, unless they had another one of course.......(wanders off puzzling...)

TheBroonOneAndTheWhiteOne · 25/12/2024 00:26

Merry Christmas to all the Excellent Cats!
And to all their owners, of course!

Grumpyoldpersonwithcats · 25/12/2024 00:48

Wishing a very happy Christmas to all the furry and less furry denizens of the litter tray.

Just back from Midnight Mass and enjoying a Christmas glass of port. Enclosed is a (completely random) photo from the choir stalls taken surreptitiously during the sermon 🤣.

Happy Christmas!

I woke myself up coughing, so I’m self-medicating with Lemsip & ice cream. Kitty is very annoyed at the disruption to normal routine & has been wandering round grumbling.

HumanToCatBeasties · 25/12/2024 07:13

Merry Christmas to all the cats and their humans on this thread.
