Anyone want a large black and white cat? Just found Boycat atop the wardrobe, where he is not allowed to go. I did not see him get up there and it is quite a leap. The problem is getting down and he tends to land on my head, hence the bar.

 

I think poppy needs a haircut

 

Epitome of relaxed cat ! Jacob! Irresistible! And forgiven for his dirty footprints as he IS washing his paws...

@Logan How cute ... I like the rug too.

Here is pretty boy Van yesterday relaxing in 30c ...

 

Thank you @Victoria the rug is just some vet bed that we bought and printed with a golden retriever on, can't get it anymore, it's just one colour.

Pretty boy van is handsome.

 

Ah his eyes remind me of my Siamese breeding days; what breed is he please?

 

Berry always likes to lie in that place. Hubby's just got out of that chair and he'll have to move Berry to sit back in it.

 

Van (Hoover Van Dyson because he likes his food) is a moggy who came to us out of the orchards six years ago starving.

The Vet listed him as a Cross Siamese but he fits the bill of a Cross Siamese Snowshoe. He has the body of a Domestic but markings and demeaner of a Siamese. As you can see he has crossed blue eyes, he has the "voice" and is very clever ... he can open the catflap backwards when locked pulling with his claws! He also has a hairlip! Snowshoes have to have the white blaze and four white feet and is a pale fawn/grey colour, hence the name.

Fascinating; thank you. Those eyes are pure Siamese... Loved them but when I came to Ireland there is so much need of homes for strays I changed course

One of the latest trio I took in recently has a cry like a Siamese. Jet black, shorthair but with a white spot in every armpit, on her private place and on her upper chest.

I learned thus that she is part Oriental. Someone clearly escaped... Her intelligence is awesome and she is picky with her food. Deeply affectionate and small boned.

 

We seem to have a lot of nixed breeds here. Our Tabby had two Siamese brothers (the litter was thee Tabbies, two Siamese. She is tiny with a fixed crook tail as was one of the other Tabbies but not the Siamese. Van always bends his tail at the end but it does not have the fixed crook. Here is Chere Khan aged six months ...



As we don't know Van's age, we gave him the same birthday as Munchkin, 17 May 2009, as Van arrived the week my sister died (17 May 2014). She had Siamese for years and I say she sent him. I say he was about 18 months - 2 years at the time but the Vet says 5 years (which I still disagree with). He loves Munch but she attacks him if he looks at her ... think it is the crossed eyes that spook her.

Here are pics of him two months after he came to us and was well fed during that time ... this does not look like a five year old ...





Here is a recent quiet moment with the two and you can see the size difference ...



I love cats.

Me too! These days they mean more to me than ever. And they are keeping me active as there is always one wants in or out! Such individuals they are.

I like cats but hubby is very nervous around them. I had a cat when we were courting but hubby didn't much like it when my cat jumped on the back of the sofa where he was sitting.

 

Utter, total penitent submission and apology! Oliver ( as in he who always demands MORE) does this in my path whenever he has erred in any way … usually pinching food off someone else's plate...He is one of three young rescued street cats.
