Cats and the Hex Bug Nano

February 25, 2011 by  

Cats featured today: Antosha, Basil, Coco, Indy, Kokos and Smokey, Mia, Mitsy, Shima and Soxy.

We saw this toy for children and thought it would be ideal for cats. We ordered one for our oriental ZaZa and it keeps him entertained for a long time.

Here is our ZaZa

Our Zaza all grown up


Lovely warm days with nights getting cooler, we can’t wait for autumn. The cats happy to be able to go out to play.

A few new faces.

Larry the cat moves into 10 Downing St

We’re so happy that another rescue cat found a home, especially if it’s 10 Downing St. It’s going to be so much fun for Larry with so much action around.

We had a huge storm yesterday afternoon and the pusses were worried. We stayed together and tried to distract them. No problems at the cattery, just very boring as nobody could go out. Today gale force winds and the temperature much tolerable.

Antosha a lovely Siberian, taking a nap

Why did you wake me up!

Can You Train a Cat?

Cats featured today: Boo, Cyrus, Kokos and Smokey, Meggs, Pepper, RosieG, RosieS, Shimma, Soxy and Velvet.

Just in case you were thinking of teaching your cat a few tricks, here is a bit of help

Very hot and humid days make for the real summer that we didn’t have until now. The cats don’t seem to mind and prefer anything to the torrential rain that forces them to be inside. Fortunately we are far way from Yasi the cyclone up north, but it might bring unstable days for us as well. In the meantime here are some of our guests

Who's there? Boo


Carlitos is shy


Cyrus is always ready to come out


Kokos and Smokey relaxing


Meggsie, an old favourite, waiting for mum to drive back home


Pepper loves tummy tum tums


Up close, RosieG


I'm coming, I'm coming! RosieS


Shimma is feeling more confident


Soxy says hello mum!


Velvet is so soft!
