    Great thread, you should stick all the videos on Youtube and pics on Imgur though, Photobucket are scumbags for deleting things that havent been accessed for a while or go over bandwidth limits.

    So I go away for a few days and its becomes sleep where you like while I'm gone.Meeka and Finnbar are becoming best buds.Meeka is a tad clumsy with her paws so every now and then Finnbar gets a box but he doesn't seem to mind.

    This is a great thread. And I will say it again. I'm sick to feck of feckers who have a hatred of cats. If they don't like them, that's grand. But don't go off on a big feckin' world war against them.
    My uncle is recovering from a stroke. But he likes cats:-). And all the feckin' moggies call to his house cos he feeds them:-). Now I know about the neutering and the spaying, but its out of my hands. They are his neighbours' moggies. But bear with me. Please......

    There was 2 kittens born about 3 months ago. And I handled them cos I thought it would be good for them to be used to humans. They are always at the back of the house but they are fairly wild. So for the last while I do blink my eyes at them (I heard this comes across as less aggressive:-);-)). And do the pishwishwishwish sound:-):-). Its taken me 3 months, but one of them now will sit inside the back door:-):-). And yest I was lighting the fire for my uncle, and the moggy ran in behind me. So I finished what I was doing and went on the hunt for him. And where was he?. Sprawled out in my uncles' bed:-):-). The fecker:-):-). And him meant to be wild:-):-). I love the moggies. But I know it is an acquired taste:-). Sorry for the long post. I'm not purrturbed. I'm just not right in the head. All hail the moggies:-):-)

    Also. If I can gain the trust of the moggies, I will attempt to get them neutered and whatever needs to be done. However. When the moggies rise up against humanity, I cannot promise to be loyal to humans. I do love the moggies..........

    See? SEE?? CATS ARE BRILLIANT, I TELL YOU!:pac:

    My uncle had the stroke last xmas, and he lost the power in his arm. But he never got it back. But he told me that he always loved cats, even when he and his brother were children:-)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 631 ✭✭✭RoadhouseBlues


    His brother. My father:-). He is gone but will never be forgotten. The laughs me and him had with the moggies were wonderful:-). A child should always have a kitten or cat to grow up with. Its a wonderful thing:-). Sorry for interrupting Finbar:-).

    Psst. I love ye all. Ye reminded me of someone special:-):-):-)

    Pishwishwishwishwishwish:-):-):-)

    I went away for a few days and I missed loads!! Those pictures and the video - just the cutest things ever... we had a cat that we found also and already had a dog they got on a bit like your two! Finbar will rule soon enough if he doesnt already! Lovely dogs though we need more pics of them too!

    I can't believe how well he looks, he's thriving, well done dad!

    I've been looking at cat watch on bbc2, part of the feature is a new programme in a rescue centre to socialise kittens for rehoming. They recommend vet training ie getting kitten used to having ears, mouth and arse looked at(!) so vet visits will be less traumatic for them. But he's still little so be gentle, think the kittens on the programme were about 10 weeks.

    It's not often you see a Dog and Cat getting along together like that!

    Our cocker got on fine with any cats that became part of the family, but strange cats would be seen out of the garden with furious barking.


    With one pair of kittens the dog went over to have a look at them and they spat and launched themselves at his face. The poor cocker very quickly became afraid of them despite raining down hell on any cats that came into the garden. At one point the dog ran into the utility room ahead of me and I shut the door behind us. Looked over to see the dog sitting down shaking in fear, turns out the kittens were in the room.

    Eventually the kittens became used to him, he was constantly chasing them from his food bowl only to find them already back at the bowl when he returned after chasing them away.


    It seems with dogs they'll get on with the family cats, but might not be so accommodating with cats from outside the family


    Though speaking of strange cats when he was a pup our next door neighbours kitten used to come over and they'd play together
