    I'd go for boring too. Every time I have wished for something exciting to happen it has always gone badly wrong!!

    Once I made some tuna sandwiches and left them on top of the eye level grill (if you remember them!). I thought they were out of harm's way. When I went to to retrieve them there was only the bread and butter left - the bread having been neatly replaced to look as though nothing had happened! One very contented smiling cat asleep on my bed!
  • I used to have twin cats called Ronnie and Reggie! Ronnie turned out to be a girl :rotfl:

    Have to ask, is the cat just called Potato, or is it Po-tay-toe a'la Keith Lemon??!! Xx

  • Our cat (who left home over whiskas-gate) was/is called Mrs Norris (kids harry potter fans).

    Funniest bit was when the art teacher at school shared her name.

    Most amusing but I guess you had to be here.

    A hound called Haggis makes us giggle too - especially when you see it on the menu (not the dog). The other is called 'Peedie' which here means small - he was the runt..................

    Happy new mixer and happy sparkly blonde haircut.

    'scuse the absence didn't want to spread my germs.

    Nope. He's just Potato.

    He's a rather handsome chap - semi-long haired, mainly black with a white bib and a few toes and a lovely, Basil Brush-type long black tail.
  • Friends of mine had a cat called Phydeaux....

    I think my names for my cats have been quite ordinary
    snowy (who was black and white)
    midnight (pitch black_
    biggles (black who liked flying up your legs)
    willow (for the film)
    and amber (for her eyes)

    glad other things have calmed down. That must have been really scary.
    Hope you are not getting to soggy
