I've a british Short hair too

but..she has a manual thought
after been thrown as a kitten by some dumb kid of a other family and decided to put it in the shelter as that dumb kid wanted a RED cat! ffs

thus we took it before they brought it to the shelter
scared she was, she didnt came close to us for weeks...after that..well we could touch her...but if you did it on surprise or she didnt see your hand first...you could lick your fingers for sure...
now...you still need to be carefull in the aproach and she still has a thing for strangers that she stays away on a distance...
and she is a very strong lady when a petdoctor though she could grab her in the neck and take a look in the ears..she turned her body around...bited her thumb...and from elbow till hand she opened up with her nails....
so....now she is in the computer as ''Extremly Dangerous'' (good girl!)
she didnt listen to the advice that she had to take some gloves first.....before grabbing...

anyway...now she even sorta talks
she replies when you say things to her...
but she is a strong healthy lady.
if I get home I will see if I can find a photo

Our cat strayed into my girlfriends house two years ago, and has followed her around this town, 3 house changes in all

She doesn't fetch socks, but she does destroy my shoelaces.

The cat, that is.

Sorry for your troubles Reece, I dread the day our cat leaves us. She's very similar to your pics, but as a rescue we've never quit found out what make she is: British Blue, British Short Hair or whatever. I'll post a pic when I'm back home.

All of our cats have been strays

The current 4 ( ! ) consist of a mother and her 2 growing rapidly sons and a kitten we rescued from a family over the road

We acquired the mother and sons after one of our previous cats befriended her
:rotfl:
You know what I mean
Anyhow she gave birth to the kittens over at the same house we rescued the latest from

The mother obviously didnt trust the family as bought the kittens over the road and under my decking
Which meant half a day for me taking up the deck to get them out

So a trip down the vets with the father for the snip led to the vets finding out he had cat aids so was put down
As was our other cat with aids too - he was a stray too
Both had been fighting with all and sundry and each other

Tests revealed the mum and kittens ok so we kept them
In fact the boys have just been down the vets today and came back minus a few bits

:rotfl:

Am not a great cat lover but would never see one suffer although I do have a sof spot for jaffa the latest kitten - though not when he climbs up my back while on the comp
He is getting heavier and his claws sharper

The wife on the other hand is cat crazy and would have more

Thanks Jim, I know how loving they can be so I won't blame all cats for what the feral one did, but if I see another feral I'll give him a wide berth!! actually there is another lurking about, he leaves his trade mark around, phew,

Firewall, I might just stick to one now, & keep it indoors, that way no fighting with feral toms, snake bites, fleas etc!

That's some cat HunterICX, I can see by her eyes that she is a little nervous & cautious, can you pick her up yet?

That's nice Tchocky, she knows who loves her!

I would be interested to see your cat picture lesrae, the pictures I posted aren't my cats, they are what I would like, I do love the cat's with the pushed in face but apparently they have a lot of breathing problems, so I think I'd geve em a miss.

BBW, you seem to have a similar situation to us, nearly all our past cats are from strays or unwanted, all have been tabbies except the one that died of a snake bite 6 months ago, he was tabby gray & mostly white, we called him "The Fonz"!

Kpt. Munson, sorry I didn't respond, wasn't sure what to say, I wouldn't go to all that trouble, I may have for our first cat that got run over, a very special cat of all that one, it took me weeks to get over his death (before we had children), I just like to put it behind me and try to get over it, not always easy as you know!

Thanks All.

I wife love's her parent's dog, a jack russell cross. I think it could end up spending large amounts of time at our new place (in negotiations at the moment) if she has her way!

As long as I have the garage (a beer fridge would be nice!) and a room for my computer, the rest of the house is hers to do with as she wishes!

I thought I'd put there picture up, this is the Fonz, put to sleep 6 months ago:

Sad but that's life!
