Or a Manx, sure, you'll get the hairs but you won't have your eye poked out from a tail :yep:

I assume that's the breed with no fur, not likely, there's no attraction for that breed at all, it's gotta have fur!:yep::roll:
Tha Manx is a nice cat but they don't appeal to me, I'd much sooner the British Shorthair.:yep: I'm getting a little excited that it might all come together soon.:up:
Cheers.

Keep us posted matey.:D and have pics:yep:

Will do for sure!:up:
Cheers.

Aww! :yeah: How much furniture do you still have? :03::haha:

It's been a while since I've posted some pics of ours and I took some the other day, so let's have a guided tour. (Image spam!)

This is Mishka, our youngest, her current most favourite object in the world is a cardboard box that my other half got a model kit in. She likes to jump up in front of the computer screen but if I point at the box and go "Box!" she jumps straight down and into the box with something akin to absolute glee. She has a strange habit of puffing herself up when she's happy (while most other cats do this when they're scared). We got her when looking at a caravan, some dockworkers near by had found her and she was in bad shape with a collar that was several sizes too small and scabs all over her face.

This is Tiggers, our second youngest. He is the hunter of the pack, built rather like a cheetah and can run like one too. Rabbits rarely stand a chance but he prefers smaller game such as mice and voles. Often lures humans into the trap of tickling his stomach whilst he is sprawled out on his back, and then eats their hand. Rather an easygoing cat, enjoys playtimes, usually in the evening when everyone else is bedding down for the night and he wants to go out (we don't let them out of an evening due to hunters and other nocturnal nasties). Will sit on your shoulder like a parrot and let you walk around. Likes playing in water. Has a strange habit of sticking his paw in the water bowl whilst drinking. We got him from a friend who had got him from a family who had been mistreating him.

This is Nikita, now our second oldest, although to look at her you would not think it. She's not grown much in size since she was about six months but just lately she's grown outward a bit. She's the current leader of the pack, and is first into any food that gets put down anywhere. A bit of a scaredy cat, she was the kitten of a feral cat who used to visit us from a location up the road and who we used to feed. Sadly, one day whilst this cat was transferring her kittens from her den up the road into our back garden she was hit by a car and killed. We found Nikita in our back garden shortly afterwards, a scared and lonely little girl. Sadly we never found the other kittens although we're sure at least one survived because a cat that looked a lot like Nikita appeared a few months later.
One of her nicknames is 'Unifang' due to a rather strange situation where all but one of her canine teeth have fallen out. Doesn't seem to stop her eating though! :haha:

And last but certainly not least, our oldest, at an age of somewhere between 19-21, Isis. The grand old lady of the family, not quite with it any more, we suspect that's she's deaf now and her eyesight is not fantastic and her balance is...well...not top par. She spends most of her time asleep on the fleece that we've put on the settee for her. A Cats Protection League cat we've had her since 1992 and she's outlasted many younger than her, including the cat we got with her (Merlyn) who the CPL claimed was her son, whether or not this was the case we do not know but on the day we took Merlyn to be put to sleep, she licked him once on the head, almost as though saying goodbye. There will be a big hole in the family the day she goes home, that's for certain, but we hope that she'll still be with us this time next year :up:

During the course of writing this, I've had Mishka jumping up in front of the computer screen at least twelve times...think she knows something? :hmmm:

The only good cat is a dead cat.:down: :woot:

The last cat to die here was Tozzie, he was around 23 years old, had to feed him soft stuff because his teeth were gone, almost deaf and partially blind, still got around ok but we had to trim his nails or they would catch on everything!!:yep: He wasn't eating well near the end and was losing weight so we had him put down, have only the kitten now and Trixie, she belonged to my daughter but due to rent conditions couldn't keep her so we inherited her!!:03: You certainly have quite a horde of unusual cats with obvious character, how old is Nikita, she looks too young to have lost all her teeth, if Tozzie had a bad tooth he used to bite down on a piece of wood then pull back and leave his tooth in the wood, quite smart I thought!!:yep: But owch!!:dead: Tiggers looks like he loves life!!:DL A nice pack of mates you got there Oberon!:up:
That's not a very nice thing to say!!:down:

What they do in my garden isn't nice as well. :shifty:
Killing my pigeons, chase away my birds and last but not least, defecate there.
It's a very small garden.

Sorry to hear the Fish, I will say that strays are a problem, we have people dumping them in the country here and they are a pest, I have had to kill a few, I don't like it but they are wild, I spent a week in hospital from being bitten by a feral cat, so I do understand what you say but I also have some pets that are looked after loved and they do keep the mice and rats at bay here, have also lost some to snake bites but better than my grandchildren getting bitten, so you see there are 2 sides of the coin, really the problem is with humans not cats!:up:

Buy a dog! :O:


Anyway, I think the cat in the first post is a Russian Blue.

You should see my daughters cat. Just the common alley cat type cat. He is wild and full of personality. Little pecker likes to go behind my computer desk and step on the plug strip button shutting everything down :shifty: He is a really cool cat.

I like that!!:haha: Reminded me of one of my cats didn't like sleeping amongst all the computer cables it liked to sh!t on them!!:nope: What a mess, of course my wife would always say, "it's your cat, your mess"!!:dead::damn:

A dog?

You mean this creature? :cool:

Yeah, he can chase the cat away.

Wow that cat is a dead ringer for my cat 'Screech' which we had to put down over the summer. She had suffered a stroke evidently and was blind and paralized in the back legs. We had that cat for nearly 18 years... brings a tear to my eyes.
