  • I have two 7 month old kittens :)
    My little girl is a suckler, she especially likes the crook of my elbow which always ends up soaking wet. She also will tap me on the face if she thinks I'm not stroking her enough.
    My little boy loves to rip apart empty crisp packets and is always turning the waste paper bin over when there's any in there. He also is intrigued by the bath. 9 times out of ten when I'm running one I'll find him sitting on the edge, he loves the loo too for some reason.
    Well I can't stand by the side
    And watch this life pass me by

    Just want to be...Happy

  • I can't upload photos :rolleyes: but when my microwave 'bings' my rabbit DJ runs up and stands on his back legs waiting for his warm brocolli, if the grill is on he wants his toast with peanut butter on and if we are sat down eating our sunday dinner he has his own plate of warm veg and eats with us :D such a clever boy!!!

    My 8 month old border collie has a 'sookie blanket'. When ever he is tired he lies down and sucks it till he falls asleep.

    Our JRT cocks her leg for a pee, she parked herself in a load of brambles when she was a pup,so unless she's at home in the garden she wont risk it, either that or she is gender confused :)

    I know, my heart melted when I saw her in the pet shop. I'd been walking past it every day for 2 weeks hoping that kittens would come in, and then there she was, and I instantly fell in love.

    I've gone cat crazy!! I'm showing her off to everyone and anyone hehe

    this is lily going crazy with her catnip mouse, i've never seen a kitty go so mental, our family cats at home have never bothered with catnip, but lily loves it.

    There used to be a 3 legged dog near my Mums house but it was incredibly stubborn, instead of cocking up his missing back leg (stump) he would balance himself on his front 'knees', stand on the little stump and lift up his remaining healthy back leg :confused:

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    My dog slaps himself, my horse backs people into the corner of his stable when he wants his back rubbed, my multi-coloured cat rolls down the stairs instead of walking and my ginger cat squeaks like a mouse rather than yowling like a cat.Oh and one of my goldfish does somersaults.
