Meet Twiggy
« on: January 17, 2005, 14:00:39 »
After Hannibal's recent bloodletting, I noticed a cat needing a home while in the Vets. This is her. 8 months old, and named after the hedge in which she was found. Hope the other cats get on with her and she stays around.

Kerry, we have 2 other cats, both getting a bit long in the tooth.
Elaine, yes she has been neutered, but she had already had a litter of kittens, probably after her first ever coming into season, poor mite.
The other cats have reacted in opposite ways. Hannibal has attacked and Mytton just went to sleep. Early days yet.

Just wondered Eric, what do the birds in your life think of the cats?  Often toyed with the idea of keeping birdies but there is such a massive cat population where we live it has put me off.  I know your chooks look after themselves, the rat story springs to mind, but what about the ducks??

Can understand how you were tempted, Eric - she is a lovely girl and lucky too to have found you!

Emma J, the ducks are even more aggressive towards the cats than the hens. Mytton is now very rarely outside at all, except for toilet and if the birds are even in sight she turns round and comes back in. Hannibal sneaks past, but is very very wary of them.
Neither cat has shown much interest in bird hunting, they bring mice etc. to show us but hide when they have caught the occasional bird. The sparrows etc. do not seem to care about Hannibal. He sits on the fence and they sit within easy leap of him without either side taking much notice of the other.
Nice links Oz!
