I think @ one point there were 10 named, and ? dunno how many more barn cats out @ the farm. plus the horses cows chickens etc. I like all animals, but this kitten .. geez!

Is this an official kitty thread? :) hmm a kittykat did officially scratch me :) As I mentioned, I'm simply curious about others having close calls etc. Oh, is about close calls or about kitties? I'm just interested, need to count number of threads and size on servers. How much space is this kitty/close call thread taking up so far? Will you be mentioning squirrels? flam ing balloons ID: 680179 ·

In the struggle to pick it up it kicked it's back legs and ripped open my arm (in the summer and a T-shirt) The cut was similar to this - It's good to be back amongst friends and colleagues ID: 680275 ·
