    where could I upload a video to? Jasper is scared of the mirror - he leaps up on all fours, back arched and then his tail doubles in size, whilst he jumps around... it's quite funny but the weirdest thing is that he tries to fight the mirror cat - worthy of You've been framed!

    georgeous fubies, yes, mine doesnt like the hoover either, i open the cupboard door so he can hide while in vacuuming lol, they look very comfortable in the photo, the first photos i took of his nibs, you can tell his a little scared by his big pupils and partially arched back, i dont see that in your photos at all, how old are they now ?

    my cat is currently sitting on the rug in front of the sofa watching the happening with me

    Not certain - youtube would work, though.

    This is normal for about a day. Then they realise the mirror cat can't get to them - or is them, going by the way mine will happily look at herself on my shoulder in the mirror as an adult cat - and the entertainment is over until they find something else daft to do.
    I could dream to wide extremes, I could do or die: I could yawn and be withdrawn and watch the world go by.

    yes they were like that one day one, now it's day 6 and they are snuggled up on my bed whilst we wait for OH to come home. They're 9 weeks and 12 weeks - they made friends in the rescue cat house, so I thought it best we take them together. They are quite confident given their ages, Patch is willing to give hugs to anyone but Jasper prefers to hide. They're only comfortable together though, if I take one away, the other cries - very cute.

    I love the pics butler_helen! The black one looks coy and the tabby looks like he/she is plotting something! they both look like real characters!

    They're adorable! I love that you've given them both a home.

    BTW, I think you can share videos through Flickr too.
