What chance has my cat got then of getting used to a cat flap?? I had a fly screen up, which has 4 sections and she sat outside crying wondering how to get in, I had to go out and physically shove her through but she still does it when it goes up, tries sticking her head throught the 2 cm or so gap between the floor and the bottom of the flyscreen:rotfl::rotfl:Anyway she would leave me dead things if I got a cat flap in:TGratitude is the best Attitude :T

She sounds like a helluva woman.And while I can feel for the recipient of several blows to the head with a frying pan.. I can't help but wish I could watch and wish it was Le Creuset!....

Re: Cats
We live in a dead end road in the middle of nowhere and today we have already had three people knock on our door and ask us do we know who owns the cat sitting in the middle of the road!
She likes it there. She is 23 soon so can sit in the middle of a very quiet road if she wants to. It is warmer there than anywhere else.business mortgage £0))''(+ Barclay's business kitchen loan £0=Total paid off was £96105 PPI claimed and received £13527

Took hubby in to see the doc and he has a new tablet for his hand, hopefully it works quickly. He say's he feels like ozzy osborne.:rotfl:
Come home to find my glass garden table in bits, wind had blown it over.I'm gutted, i like sitting out there with me cuppa. Best of it is, it wasn't even windy when we left but was when we got home.:(
