Seeing Mac and Horatio earlier this week, I realised that I’d forgotten how cats manage to make themselves both cuddly and sleek at exactly the same time, though when it came to giving Mac belly-rubs, I was relieved to discover that I’d lost none of my timing vis-a-vis the getaway…! I miss having cats around. [...]

Online … at home!
I spent yesterday and today up in Oxfordshire, visiting B (my ex) and the cats, Mac and Horatio, who are looking sleek and positively radiant. It was lovely to the boys – and B! – and we spent a lovely evening curled up in front of the TV, stuffing our faces with curry and watching [...]

A law unto themselves
As you would expect, our three cats have differing and distinct personalities. Queenie keeps herself to herself, fighting off unwanted attention but never able to get enough … when she’s in the mood! Horatio is a softie, gentle, loving and sweet. Mac is a hunter, as much of a cat’s cat as it’s possible to [...]

When Mac went missing
Last week, my two year old black cat, Mac, gave us quite a scare when he didn’t come home one night. Mac’s the kind of cat whose life and its timings are ruled by his belly so he is always home for his dinner, usually within a few minutes of us walking through the door. [...]

She’s their Human. Cats! Huh!) in the hopes of reminding her where she lives Happy birthday, B! Hurry [...]

Daft dogs and crazy cats
Our beloved pets might be a tad on the eccentric side but at least they give me plenty of blogging material!

The cat sat on … the ice
This time last year, we had a hard frost up at Mum’s and Mac took the opportunity to learn all about ice: He spent ages checking it out: I gave watching but since the sight of a soaking wet cat failed to materialise, I guess he also got bored before the ice melted!

Dirty stop out!
I usually get home from the farm at around the same time every day (though it’s often later than usual, especially now that the evenings are so much lighter) and within five minutes of me walking in through the door, all the cats will be in through the window, yowling and wailing for their dinner.
