    Oh not at all Jen.

    Do you know i got most of my furniture through hand me downs.

    My bed was £100, my computer was about £200 and thats it.

    Oh and my 2 cats cost me just over £500 (:eek: ).

    They are the most expensive thing i have to show for my £11K debt! :rolleyes: :rotfl:

    BUT its a learning curve.

    They are definitely different to normal cats.

    They "talk" like siamese do, they are bigger and generally a completly different personality.

    Strangely they are realted to an Asian Leopard Cat, not a tiger (god knows why they call them bengals :confused: ).

    Yeah i keep them in. mainly because my front door opens onto a main road. I want to get a garden so i can enclose it.

    I would let Monty out (brown one) as he doesnt like people so would run away, but Dylan is too friendly and would probably get taken.
