He is just like my neighbours cat who comes in to be fed sometimes, but I had to train my cat not to attack him and she is now getting used to having another cat being allowed into her territory.

Wow Brian! He is very handsome! I hope they become friends with your Milly they would be a nice couple :-)!
He is a bit younger than Milly and still cautious of her but I like to see him and I encourage him into the house despite Milly's annoyance.Quote:

Brian I am always happy to hear from you, honestly. I haven't given up on 'Name the painting' blog I just spend less time online. I will tell you lil secret - I have less than 50 sites to read from Svejk and after that I will start your book as I told you already I am really excited about it. Shame on me - I read slowly first reason is that the book is in Hungarian, which is not my native language, on the other hand I have a very few time for reading.Quote:

I haven't seen Tabby,our neighbours cat, for a few days but here are some more of Milly.

oh, some lovely pics of your pets here! and the rescue animals... that funny fluffy black pup :D i love big dogs, but he's a cracker ready to steal anyone's heart i'd imagine.
i have 3 dogs and a moggy; the dogs are mum, dad, and son.
can i upload one straight from my pc? i only see the insert image http:// thingy. hmnn, on another site i belong to, there's a manage your attachments option under the post box. is there a setting i've not got set right as i don't see it here?
Most pictures on the site use photobucket, flikr, imageshack etc as the medium to transmit pictures. I used to use photobucket until they altered the format in a way that doesn't allow me use it so I now use Imageshack which is much simpler to use. Just google Imageshack and click onto the first item.Quote:

They are all so lovely!
aw thanks, Olga - his name is Syd. huge, ultra hairy with a long orange top coat and a cream dense undercoat, great big furry feet and the softest natured family dog. he's almost 12 now, and aging fast. if he's been laying down a while it takes him a bit of an effort to stand up, and he's a glutton for Bonios, lol. he's a mix of red setter, german shepherd, boxer and black lab. :crazy:Quote:

Ah, everyone's animals are so adorable, the little terrier and the lab are so cute they make my teeth hurt. BrianBean, Millie is lovely and so-o-o dignified (on film anyway :D). Big Red and his family, so beautiful. And Weltanshuung, that's quite a sweetheart you've got there.
We had an earthquake a couple of hours ago, not serious, but I was surprised that my cats just continued sleeping. Aren't animals supposed to sense it and become nervous?
O-o-o-h, Olga, is everyone OK?
Well, that's the theory, anyway. Maybe your cats just big lugs without that extrasensory perception. :D

Maybe my cats didn't indicate or sense it because it wasn't a big deal.
I would like to share this video with pet-lovers. Maybe some of you are already familiar with this nice cat, called Maru.

I am happy to share this article that Maru survived the earthquake.
Quote:
We are happy to learn that Maru, Pokke, Meme and the Momo rescue group are safe after the devastating earthquake and tsunami that hit Japan. We are sending our prayers and purrs to all the furry friends and people in Japan. Our hearts go out to them.
Edit: Power is out in many places in Japan including where Maru resides, but they are doing fine.
Updates from ARK, an animal rescue group in Japan.
The cat island also named Tashirojima is near Sendai – [edit] we just received updates regarding the island. We are praying that all the cats knew it ahead of time and made it to safe places.
This is the downside to owning a cat. Milly was given a good talking to and went without food for a day as a result. She knew why I was angry because when I pointed to the bird she ran away. Luckily, today I was working in the garden and there was another robin chirping in the bird bath. The problem occurs with robins because for some reason they wont take food from the bird feeders but feed at ground level on crumbs that fall when other birds are eating. I shall be on the lookout when the cat is outside and she knows what to expect if I catch her at it again.

Emil,
It's sad that cats kill birds but it's natural. Every spring millions of birds come to this world and if Milly following her instincts kills one or two nothing happens. It would be much worse if birds killed cats.
Here are some picture taken last Wednesday.
A swan family:

This year there are so many swans on the lake that it seems that the lake became white.

Emil, your Milly is so gracious like a princess and your neighbor's cat is so masculine. Are they good friends?
OrphanPip, it's never too late to post some pictures. What're the names of your pets? What're their names? Is your kitty Abyssinian? He or she is soooo cute!
This is from when our beloved Smeagol was still with us. That gray lump towards the back is my son, Isaac. He always shared his tiny twin bed with both dogs, now he only has to share with Dobby.

The rabbit is Hazel, she is a mix between a standard rex and a Dutch lop. She was a rescue.Quote:

I don't keep rats anymore because they are so short lived that it is a little difficult.
This thread is totally cat-heavy. Nice pets.

Let me express my admiration to you for your love to animals am my sympathy in your loss of Xena.Quote:

Sadly Bomber, my Harris Hawk is no longer with us, but the ferret is still bouncing around. He's called Mr. Sweet and he loves rabbit.
You wo't believe it, but our cat also took up planking... :lol: or maybe i's a bit more like owling or whatever she pleases.
Daft cat...
Ok, so first attempt failed, second attempt, I trust, has been effective.
Oh she is gorgeous!!!!Quote:

Prunelle's the only of our cats who fancies herself a bird, though...
She looked at the bread the other day and tried it too, sitting on the roof of that bird house...
And before you ask, Prunelle was called after the Belgian alcohol (a little like Amaretto, but of plums, therefore Prunelle), Emma just like that because we liked it and Baldrick after the comedy character. :D He couldn't jump you see, and always had to scramble up the window sill with his back paws when he was still small. Years later we discovered he had a problem with his hip when he was born, so couldn't put a lot of strength on one. It seems to have been solved now, though.
Actually our cats are part of a dynasty which is always called after alcohol. There was a Batida, a Pernot, a Smirnoff, there is another Prunelle we gave away and a Chiraz (after the grape), both chilren from our Emma.
And then, there is a daughter of our Emma and sister of our Prunelle, who is called... Gattovenaqui... You see, we had called her Edna after the Blackadder joke ('the other one') because she had to stay slightly longer than the rest before she could go to Spanish friends of ours. As she and our Prunelle were part of the same nest, they both did the same mischief and had to be somewhat contained... Prunelle we chose because, even so small, she used to come and sit with us when we were eating on my husband's knee. It was like she insisteed 'I want to be part of you guys!' So we used to call the other little cat 'the other one' but that really doesn't shout well if they are eating the plants... So I called her Edna for ease after Blackadder. And then, the other family decided they were going to think of a name. Nefertiti was in the running (nice!), but the cat started to answer to what they called at first in Spanish if they wanted her to come: 'Cat, come here.' And now she answers to the Spanish for 'cat, come here'. 'Cat' for short. :lol:
@Dansbird:
That's a very cute Jack Russel, by the way (it is one isn't it?)
Kiki I think that all your cats are gorgeous, actually all cats are, ancient Egyptians knew something. It's funny to choose names for pets, it took a couple of moths to find a name for my cat Panteleimonas, also it wasn't easy to find out the name for my youngest cat Boris and the oldest one Jacob.
What's for alcohol, one of my daughter's cats is called Jim-Beam.
Isn't cat in Spanish gata or gato?
Thank you for introducing your cat's dynasty, can't wait for you to post some pictures of them.
