......... and try to break into the film industry.

It'll be an unlikely success as they'll have to stay awake for long periods while filming goes on.

Well. Unless they decide to make Carry On Sleeping.

@TheBroonOneAndTheWhiteOne Currently Micia as an ex stray will eat absolutely anything. Rescue advised me to keep her on Felix original which looks horrible. I an sneaking in roast chicken and sheba and bits. How long before you think I will create a picky food cat?

About five minutes, based on bitter experience......

Yep, 10 minutes tops if you’re luck, Breadcat!

@TheBroonOneAndTheWhiteOne he is a trier

He ate a good deal of it once it was cooked. So did Mr. Linney.
We all did.
It was last year's Christmas dinner.

@TheBroonOneAndTheWhiteOne That is my idea of a family gathering human cat human cat human etc
I am roasting so much chicken at the moment as bribes

Hamish (my NMK) managed to get out and got himself stuck in a bramble bush this morning, before 8 am.

My friend had to abandon giving her DC their breakfast, to go out and rescue him.
When they got back inside, Hamish demanded a second breakfast immediately, entirely ignoring my friend's many wounds and scratches.

He didn't seem terribly grateful for the rescue.

@Pianoaholic hope your finger gets better

Linney doesn't want to share my heated throw with me.
He won't get off what he believes to be his end of it.

He's getting a bit better now antibiotics are kicking in, thanks.
He now has to catch up with 4 days of school work which he missed!

How about your DS ?

My finger is better, it wasn't a really bad scratch!
Herbie is capable of worse!

Lucky for you he's a bit challenged when it comes to jumping :)

Well, obviously it's his, it matches his fur.
Gizmo wonders when you are getting a tabby one for him.

I melted Fred with the heated blanket earlier. He became all floppy and purry.

She now won't get off my shoulder - and I have to leave for choir in 10 minutes. 🤣

She's just saying thank you for her cooked breakfast!

Kirova · 08/03/2026 10:58

I can't believe she's 15. She is so gorgeous and youthful!

RumNotRun · 08/03/2026 13:31

I have a ridiculousness of cats next to me.

Too gorgeous! And I love the colour contrast.

FC2 moved to his new home the other day. My friend is ecstatic and says he's the "sweetest cat ever", so it all seems to be working out well. Meanwhile, I see a lot of FC1 now that she's figured out her cat flap!

The newest resident arrived yesterday evening. A "very traumatised" ginger girl. Again, I've been quite disappointed by the lack of promised antisocial behaviour. She was a bit hissy and hidey to start with but has since been following me around purring and rubbing round my legs! So, early days, but all okay so far...

@Kirova just admit it... you're The Cat Whisperer! 😸

Thank you for all you're doing - we wouldn't have our 2 madams without lovely fosterers like you. ❤️

Breadcat24 · 08/03/2026 17:44

@RumNotRun how lovely you can never move!

You’ve obviously got a talent for this @Kirova! I hope your rescue know how lucky they are to have you - good fosterers are gold dust.

Always thought that nothing beats a pile of cats 😁.
