Topic: Eeeek! A Mouse...!

[eileen]

I've not offended you have I Plocket? I wouldn't actually harm the cat but I'd gladly give it a good soaking with a water pistol in the hope that it would move elsewhere and leave my birds and fieldmice alone.

Toots, as you say it's not the dogs fault that their owner hasn't trained them properly, I think it's about time that some owners were sent to training classes, as well as their pets, as  some of them really don't have a clue!!

 8)Think we all love our little creterrs,dog lover me, but not all dogs, some are just a pain in the whatsit, I do like cats but unfortunately they make me sneeze, bit of a nimby I guess all animals have that right to be, but please rodenty be somewhere else.

[Plocket]

Oh Eileen - no you certainly haven't offended me! I was just trying to point out that I do try and be responsible for my cat, rather than letting it run wild! I have told my neighbours to use a water pistol if she does anything they don't like! We use one if she does things we don't like!!! My husband is an excellent shot but the cat has got wise to him now!

 :D so glad  I didn't Plocket.

We are very lucky now,as our next door neighbours are fond of our cats and feed them when we are away.They would have one themselves but  my friend is allergic to them.Ours are pets at a distance for them!

Our other neighbours also have cats so that is OK with them too.

It does make a difference when you are not feeling that they are a nuisance.

We had a huge great cat in the garden yesterday, even the dog was nervous, A lovely colour mind , a light grey, almost silver, but by crikey was it big, round as well as tall.

[Plocket]

When I was little, I went with dad to one of his clients, who asked his daughter to go and get their cat Daisy. Off she went and returned with what looked like a large furry cushion over her arms. It turned out to be a very VERY fat black cat which certainly didn't suit it's name. It could hardly walk, let alone run, because it lived off steak and cream apparently!!!

[Val]

Poor thing, that seems to much, this one was quite fit, it managed to fly...well not literally...over the fence.

[Plocket]

Are you sure yours wasn't the Creature from Kent? Sounds fit and huge!

[Val]

Well we are supposed to have wild cats roaming around but it wasn't that big, I wouldn't have gone out the door ;D ;D ;D

[Plocket]

It should keep the mice at bay though Val!!!!!

[Val]

Yes its a bit late, it was probably that , that dropped it off in the first place.going to do some cross-stitch now, take care . :)

[Plocket]

I have assumed that you are going to do the cross-stitch Val, not the cat!  ;)

[Val]

 ;D ;DYes, should be called happy stitch really, did a bit yesterday, I'm doing beautiful Britain at the moment...Its traditional scenes, I've done a parish postbox, now on steam train, probably do a country inn next.Wish I could get the garden like the pictures, not a weed in sight.

[Plocket]

Oh they sound really pretty. My mum taught me cross stitch but I don't really do it now. I've so much going on that I haven't got time. Good luck with yours though.

[eileen]

Just dropping in to say bye for now. I'm off to Holland early tomorrow morning for my hols.  ;D See you all in two weeks.

Take care!!

Love to you all. Eileen.
