    Ahh loving the cat pictures, they are so beautiful (just took me abouy six attempts to spell that :confused: )
    It's so awful that people could abandon them, I used to volunteer at the RSPCA rehoming centre a few years ago and pop down every now and again to look at the animals, some of the stories are awful, it makes me soooo :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

    If I had the space I would take them all home with me!

    Ours weren't abandoned, the owners just decided they didn't want them anymore for some reason and kept them in their home until they found us to take them away. In a way that was worse to me.

    Luckily they have settled in fine now, and are really happy here. We spoil them rotten so I would hope so too!

    You looking forward to Lost tonight? What was that boat full of French folk all about last week? (But Yay Jin's Alive!!)

    Know what you mean... poor Harold had been there 3 months!!!! Probably 'cos he wasn't as cute and fluffy as some. But he's a big fat silly catpuss, amazing temprement- has never bit or scratched (except once accidently when he was trying not to go in the cat box to the vet!!) Everyone elses loss= our gain. I'm sure I'm destined to be a crazy old cat lady... I've told OH he's not allowed to die before me or else I'm likely to have a house full of cats! :D

    On a more happy DFW note, a slip up at the cinema today meant we paid £4 less than we were meant to. Didn't realise until we got home :j

    Your cats are gorgeous.
    I love cats, but hubby is not a lover of them. He would never do anything to hurt a cat, but would not have one as a pet either!! Funnily, they seem to love him. If we go anywhere where there is a cat, they make a beeline for his lap!
    We have a dog, she came from a trescue centre after being abandoned with her 8 puppies :(.
    She is so loverly:)
    K
    Fact: people who don't like cats= cat magnets. My dad doesn't like cats, but Harold likes him! Weird.

    OOOh well laura I'll have to hide the next bit of the post then :) If you don't mind lost stuff highlight the bit between the dashes!


    Yay about Jin but yeah the french people - that was young rousseau when she was having Alex wasn't it???? Made me try to think back to when they all first met her to see if she recognised Jin... may have to dig out the dvds!


    Yeah that is almost as bad about the poor cats, how awful must it be to be living somewhere you know you're not wanted. My mum's next door neighbour is like that - they've had the cat for ages then a few years ago she got 3 big dogs who terrorise the cat something rotten. She's got a new boyfriend and goes away with him alot, taking the dogs but leaving the cat outside with just a bowl of dry food and a washing up bowl of water. Poor thing. No one ever comes round as if there'd been an arrangment to feed it. My mum puts out the leftover food from her cats and it always comes round to eat it. So sad x
