On kittens

I like cats.  I have liked cats since I was very small and the elderly Siamese that supposedly belonged (for anyone that lives with cats, they know that owning/belonging are not the correct term, but it'll suffice for now) to our neighbours came to live with us.  She was territorial and vocal and the neighbours were moving to a house between two dogs and they thought she might die trying to assert her authority.  Despite this territorial side, she was a sweet-natured cat, if somewhat noisy.  She did love people and unlike most cats, adored being played with like a doll and would happily leap into the pram to be shuttled about.  ( more cats )

.  I'm excited and looking forward to having felines back in my life.
