If J. gets in before I do in the late afternoon, he may be moved to dish out the cat's tea. No matter if I come in a mere 5 minutes later--I'm informed by the whole crew that they haven't had their TEA, have been ignored, abandoned. They are so convincing that were it not for their row of just-licked dishes I would be opening another can of treat for them.Morning's Minionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01912356455981434029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4493398068080107368.post-56704668357025467782009-12-06T00:04:59.336-08:002009-12-06T00:04:59.336-08:00MM - I was very privileged to look after these bea...MM - I was very privileged to look after these beautiful pusskins this summer. Mr Ginger is nervy, but towards the end of the week he was feeling happier about us, whereas Mr Norway was easy going from the start, and reminded me very much of our Honey (who is Maine Coone). Old Mrs Cat was quite happy just to curl up on a bed all day long until she heard the rattle of the biscuit box . . . They bullied me mercilessly and told me fibs about how they Never Got Fed when we weren't there, so they Needed Extra Meals to build them up . . .Bovey Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13117332471600275100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4493398068080107368.post-48163750243671820372009-12-05T19:53:15.573-08:002009-12-05T19:53:15.573-08:00Abandoned animals, especially cats, tear at my hea...Abandoned animals, especially cats, tear at my heart strings. We have rescued so many over the years, taken them to the vet for shots and spaying/neutering. Many of them have become devoted pets, some have not made the transition as successfully. We grieve when their little lives are over, but cannot imagine ever having a home without several cats. Right now there are 8.<br />Thank you for sharing the story of Ginger Man's rescue.Morning's Minionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01912356455981434029noreply@blogger.com
