Roond and roond and up and doon - the Excellent Cats roam aboot

[TheBroonOneAndTheWhiteOne]

......... as Gizmo and Linney almost reach their first anniversary, they reflect on the joys of living in the same hoose.

🙀🙀🙀 What was going on there? I wish I knew how to do captions 🤣

Agree about tabbies and their descendants, Kloppy has the face of an angel but the mind of a tiger 🐅

I know that @TheBroonOneAndTheWhiteOne is trying to paint Gizmo as a cute fluffy kitten.
But just a gentle reminder of his wild cat roots 🤣

See 😻

Lucky snap while she was trying to reach the wand toy in my other hand!

In her head and mine she was defending herself from the savage predators of the Serengeti 🤣

I’m pretty sure that when she’s in her eyrie she’s actually lurking at the top of a tree, waiting to pounce on her unsuspecting prey.

I feel our cats are being taunted...

Not to mention provoked.

And a few more.

Well, you could follow @Esgaroth’s example & get a water pistol.

Do you know where he lives?

Checking that he's left the premises.
I do know where he lives - and he doesn't seem to do too much harm (unless I try to stroke him 🤣).
But I don't think our cats have any desire to be friends.

Kettle caught a redwing today and brought it under the spare bed.

We managed to get him to leave it by showing him some fish and released the poor thing, which appeared uninjured. Anyway it flew away after a short recovery period, although I've since read that it might die from his mouth bacteria anyway. 😞

Kettle was unrepentant and spent some time looking round the spare room for his bird after we'd put it out.

Your black trio are very stylish (Sybil too, of course).

@Pixiedust1234it was my face that the little evil demon managed to scratch! He's been quite sweet this evening though, even allowing me to rub his tummy.

DD2 took a terrifying photo of Gizmo yesterday.
I feel that there should be some sort of warning on this picture. Gizmo looks demonic.
🤣

@RumNotRun Herbie is a bit too free with his claws...he's always been feisty since we got him. He will let me stroke his tummy, but only when he's very dozy! He will only accept me picking him up, so I feel privileged!
Literally have to take the rough with the smooth with some cats!

Ouch!!! At least he seems repentant.

I left a large letter on the table, ready for posting tomorrow.

Linney decided that it was the perfect place on which to have a nap. He had a prolonged wash then settled down.

He woke up briefly for me to take a picture of him.

Not sure what Herbie is looking at here, but it must be exciting!

Kitty & I have been out watching the Strawberry Moon and having a late night snack.

Discovered Gizmo sitting on a bench today, next to the man who christened him The Broon One.

He was listening out for birds in the bushes behind him. Gizmo, that is - not the man.

Was the man enjoying his company?

Yes, he loves Gizmo!

And a new lady has moved into the sheltered housing. Gizmo goes and sits on her wall, no doubt to try and wheedle something to eat out of her.
