Awwww Korky, was he resurrected as my neighbour's cat
aww hunni you sound like you gave him so much love, which is not surprising knowing you here..
mmmm I am obviously female
don't really know why I chose this name...I think I did a short story called No Name Woman as part of my course, and I think it has, only slightly, some parallels with how I feel re living-on-a-hyphen, the inbetweeness if this makes sense...anyway enough philosophising, and yes, I did have a tiny brandy before you ask

But, all my friends can;t wait to see me and horse again, and although it will feel strange going back i am looking forward to it:D

Korky,
love the photos of your cat, gorgeous.
one of my ferals that stalked me, and moved in when he was 1.5 years old, was a bit wild ( very, and fast with teeth and claws, if i annoyed him he would jump onto my shoulder and chew on my arm/neck. quite vicious) He is so sweet and loves his cuddles, jumps into my arms on command, and goes for walks on the lead. I think with alot of them, time, patience and tlc works well.
on the other hand we have one that looks very like a scottish wild cat, cant meow, just chirps etc. and very wild.
am rambling again.
Night
xTHANKS to everyone who posts competitions. you are all :A.0
