Nice photo Christa
My daughter and husband 'adopted' a male black cat who just kept 'turning up' to be fed etc.
When they first got him he was similar to yours is, but now he's become really affectionate - in fact when I go up to theirs and am sat on the settee he looks up at me and waits for me to beckon him on to my knee - he then stays there for hours (just occasionally 'nudging' me if I stop stroking him!!).
I'm sure yours will be the same given time.
Thanks
And it's usually like that to begin with. I think most cats settle in surprisingly good considering that we move
them without them understanding why. No one tell them that it's about to happen...so it never seize to amaze me.
Because she always been an indoor cat she's not spayed, so in a couple of months or so it should be loads of fun. Lots
of meowing...and they get so annoying.
you never did say who and where for 2012?

Hubby has also mentioned alaska again as the first time we did this we had no luggage!!! Ruined the cruise and Vancouver stay (Heathrowe cock up!! but they blamed Manchester!)
Another cruise
Sure you want to? ???
I was booked to fly on a Pan Am plane when Lockerbie happened!! It was one of the safest plane I've ever flown on given the levels of security. I flew to the states 13 months after 9/11. Same principle. The ships I go on do their safety briefings before they leave port (not one day after) they do them in English (not 5 different languages so that by the time you get to the English all the other nationalities are chattering their heads off and you can't hear) and they are staffed by Captain's who have worked their way up through Seamanship not been appointed as head of Security and promoted in line with the Peter principle!! So yes I will be going!!!!
Claustrophobia, I used to to work in the pit.
It wasn't that bad, as long as your lamp worked.
Turn your helmet lamp of in some areas of the pit and you couldn't see jack.
If your lamp failed, and you were in a tight restrained area, good luck.
Old argument.
What colour is a red scarf in 'total' darkness.
Answer, black.
You can't see it.
It's only red when light reflects off it.
If a spanner falls of a shelf in your shed (wind), and your not there,
does it make a noise.
Answer, no.
Only to the people who hear it fall.
Rather her than me. I'm like OC and Fly, not so worried about flying, but get bored easily and can get a bit claustrophobic.
Best destinations for me were Lyon, Barcelona and Gozo. Only an hour or two in the air and in Gozo's case another hour and a half from Malta to Gozo by ferry, but what a holiday!
TBH cruising always seemed a bit too laid back for me - don't you get bored?
My mum's going to Sydney for Easter. Visiting my sister. 23 hrs of flying.
I don't think so. She's done it before, on her own
Rock on mother, your a star
