Nice Kitty, Angel went and hid under the Bed when the Plumbers came here to work in the Kitchen(hooked up an icemakers water line and a new faucet), She couldn't have been scared of the bill as It was only $118.94 and not the $200.00 I'd been told It could be in a phone estimate, So I save $81.06 total! Yippee I have Hot Water and soon hopefully ICE too. Savoir-Faire is everywhere! The T1 Trust, T1 Class 4-4-4-4 #5550, America's First HST |

Here are some pictures of the cats that Miranda and I have. Artemis and Shadow are two older ladies (over 10 years each) who Miranda adopted from a shelter well before I met her. Artemis has suffered a few health problems in the past, and took a little while to get used to the new home when we moved a couple of months ago, but she's adjusted well. Loki was due to be the first we adopted in the new house (the old apartment had a two pet limit). We'd agreed to take him on from an older couple, who acquired him in a most unusual manner - he was found under the bonnet of the couple's car just after a 20 minute journey. He was already weaned, but still very young. He proved a bit rambunctious for them though - we renamed him to Loki because he is all over the place, and is definitely a 'no fear' kitty! He has an especial fondness for anything dairy - cheese, milk, ice cream, anything he can get his paws and face into! We try and keep him off the normal moo juice, but occasionally as a treat we put some stuff that's been formulated for cats down. We got Apollo a day or two before getting Loki, because we thought that perhaps a similarly aged friend for him would be good, rather than have him bothering the older ladies all the time. We went to a local PetSmart that has a rotating display of shelter kitties who are up for adoption, and found him as part of a litter nicknamed the 'fire ants', due to the colouration of the males. He's a lovely cat that really likes to curl up on my lap. His special trick is when I play with him with a dangly toy - he's happy to jump 2 - 3 feet in the air from a standing start to try and get to it! When we got Apollo, I was a little sad to see him wander about as if looking for his littermates. Mir and I debated it a bit and decided that we could take on two more, so we went back to the lady who was fostering them and picked out two more from the same litter, Keegan and Toffee. Both were very shy when we got them, and Keegan still is a bit skittish, but they've settled in and can both be very affectionate. Keegan especially loves the fountain we installed so the cats can drink from running water, to the extent where he'll happily stick his head under the flow, or sit on top of it and drink from there. Finally, a few pics of the cat I owned in the UK are here. Fezzik was a lovely cat, but I wasn't able to spend a lot of time with him overall as a couple of years after I adopted him, I had to move and ended up in a place where I couldn't have pets. Some good friends agreed to look after him for me, and I was able to visit him once in a while. I like to think that he recognised me each time, as he was always came out to see me and was happy to be petted. He died suddenly in mid 2007. Apparently he was healthy (active, eating, etc) one day and found dead on my friends' kitchen floor the next, in a pose that at least indicated it was sudden and fairly peaceful. I hope you enjoy these pics! |

I just came to the conclusion that If I owned a Black cat again I'd name Him or Her Felix. :D Savoir-Faire is everywhere! The T1 Trust, T1 Class 4-4-4-4 #5550, America's First HST |

There was a price to be paid for this photograph of our Kitty, not to be paid immediately, but some time, some where Princess Heidi will have her revenge.... I am a kitty lover, this was just too hard to resist. Bambi |

After a few minutes It'll be a fading memory I'd think, after that She may not remember It at all as long as It isn't repeated. Savoir-Faire is everywhere!
