Cat Napping.
Cat Napping.
Its been said that cats can sleep just about anywhere. One of mine used to amuse passers-by for many years by curling up in a plant pot on top of the garden wall. More a pot of cat-nap than cat-nip. Here are a few amusing examples of other cats napping....... 1.

Its always fascinated me, Pamela, the way cats decide where they are going to sleep, and once they are embedded, nothing will shift them!

Quoting: John Richards It's always fascinated me, Pamela, the way cats decide where they are going to sleep, and once they are embedded, nothing will shift them! Well. JR, I dont think I would want to be the one trying to shift the cat with the 1,000yard stare!! Do they have this poster on their door? .......

Brilliant photos and worth a look at any time. I havent a photo to add to this but you will all remember the days when TV sets were not the slim type we have today. Our cat used to go to sleep on top of our set and often let a paw slowly slide down at the front of the screen. Moving it brought a killer stare, a shrug and she settled down but eventually the same thing would happen again. The most outstanding bit of her performance was when she would roll the wrong way and slide down the sloping back and then emerge with a bewildered expression before shaking, composing herself and nonchalantly, as cats do, climb back up. The attitude was Actually I meant to do that. TC.

Im glad that you enjoyed them TC. Loved the story of your cat on top of the TV and her reaction when she fell off. Cats certainly have cornered the market in nonchalance and that look that says "WHAT? Has something happened? Did I miss it?" Apparently, according to the number of people asking for advice on the internet, cats are not deterred by the new slimline TV sets and still seek a way to get on top. Just for you.......

This one is obviously worn out after playing with the mouse all day!

Another foible of our cat was when football was on TV she would insist on trying to play with the ball and dive around in front of the set pawing at the screen. Very frustrating when I was trying to watch England. Thanks for the pic Pamela. Proves cats never give up! TC.

I had a cat that used to go berserk when snooker was on, I often thought they were going to stop play and ask me to remove my cat!

On the animal front we had a dog which hardly ever even glanced at the TV screen. However, one day there was an advert on for Bonio dog biscuits. It showed a man throwing a biscuit to a dog which snapped it up from mid air. There was a tinkling sound accompanied by the superimposition of a skeleton on the dog. Our dog went crazy trying to get out and finished up hiding under the table before we could let her out. It was thankfully a one off because she never bothered afterwards no matter how often the ad was shown. Weird aint it? TC.

Living out in the sticks, we enjoy quite a variety of birds in the garden. Well, perhaps we might if we didnt have five cats next door, on one side and two more on the other! However, our garden is not regarded as disputed territory, merely a place for R&R. Cheers, Syd.

Next time you enjoy a few glasses of the amber nectar of an evening and feel the need to relieve yourself, do a tour of the garden ( making sure, of course, that darkness has fallen and the neighbours arent peeping) and see how many cats turn up afterwards.

Quoting: Pamela Forbes How do you know that Syd's neighbour's wife is called Pamela, JD? If the neighbours wife is called Pamela, and the cat is also Pamela, doesnt that get a bit confusing, Pamela?

A brilliant book Pamela. Not the sort to try to finish in one go but best to dip into and out as the mood takes you. Patricia and I will soon be cat-napping among other activities in Turkey from this Friday so au revoir folks. TC.

I hope that you and Patricia have a lovely time, Terry. I trust that you have packed the appropriate headwear!

Pam, if I had that many jars, Id have to be carried into the garden! Not only that, but these pesky moggies have claws. You might think that visiting foxes would see off a few, but all they do is crap on the lawn...frequently. Cheers, Syd.

Quoting: John Richards I was about to say something really witty, Pamela, when something horrible happened. I'm really, really sorry! JR, your attachments really should come with a health warning....... This pic may cause incontinence! Apart from having me reaching for the Tena Lady, that one also brought to mind the old joke about the Duchess who passed wind rather loudly during a large dinner party. In an effort to pass the blame she turned to the Butler who was standing close by and said "Stop that at once, Jeeves!" "Certainly, Madam", replied Jeeves "Which way did it go?"
Quoting: Pamela Forbes Syd, JR could probably help you out there. He has some trousers ideal for outdoor adventures! Failing that, perhaps these two could help you out. Now then JD. We have some very foxy foxes around these parts and stopping them a-coming in is a major problem. However, what do you charge for these trousers that Pamela is on about? Do you charge by the hour, or per fox stopped? Should I hang them on the hedge, or perhaps fly them from the church tower? Cheers, Syd.
