Especially for Liz...

You see, if you complain that I haven't posted for three months then you might just get a posting all to yourself. Which may or may not be a good thing. Although, sorry Liz, you only actually get a subject heading. And you may not like the content of this post...

So, what's new in Cat-land? Well, just that actually - a cat. A kitten to be more precise. She's a cat of many names, christened 'Rosabelle' by the small child that found her (two days before going on furlough, hence the game of pass-the-kitten we've been playing) this was deemed too big a name for such a small creature by the first family that took care of her in her owner's absence who proceeded to call her by the (highly imaginative) name of 'Kitty'. I was next in line to take charge of her well-being - a task some might deem me unsuitable for as I promptly renamed her 'Kebab', which is what I have been threatening to make with her if she gets annoying. However, I am fast coming to the conclusion that kebabbing is too good for the little demon. She's small, grey, stripy and demon-possessed at least 95% of the time. If L.M.Montogomery hadn't got there first (see Rilla of Ingleside) I would be calling her 'Jekyll&Hyde', heavy on the Hyde.

Now, I do not have any pictures of her in the act of attacking - I'm usually far too busy trying to get her off to find my camera but I do have a picture of her looking cute and then the damage she's done to my arm so far.





I used to have a book called '100 ways to kill a cat'. I may still have it but it'd be in England so not a whole lot of use to me. If anyone has any ideas... Or recipes...

As the aforementioned Liz I feel it is only right that I leave a comment! Thankyou, thankyou, thankyou for my very own post!! It's great to hear your antics with feline friends even if I do detect a derogatory tone towards the cute, adorable, little thing-hee hee! Poor you on the arm :( xx
