    Aw Beanie :) I'm so pleased for you (and the cats of course). What a lucky pair of cats - they look gorgeous by the way. I will admit I was secretly hoping you'd adopt them.

    I support Cats Protection and often donate/buy the books of raffle tickets they keep sending me.

    As I type this my cat is purring in my ear and the dog has got her jealous face on.
    I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)
  • They do look lovely cats and nice for them to stay together :).

    Happy Friday lovely readers.

    It's Friday, it's (nearly) 5 o'clock & it is Crackerjack :rotfl:
    Only readers of a similar vintage to me will understand this!
    (I never did get my crackerjack pencil :(
