Cats!

[Digger]

Now it’s no surprise to people that know me to hear that I don’t like cats! I’ve never hidden the fact! Not long after Gael and I got together I was practicing archery in the back yard shooting into hay bales that were at ground level with something approximating a rabbit target.

Gael had a cat which was known as “Issy Cat” because Chris her youngest, couldn’t say “***** Cat”. One afternoon I was plonking arrows into the target when Issy bloody cat walks in front of it and stops! I had already drawn the arrow back and immediately thought,
“It was an accident, the cat just walked in front as I fired....not my fault at all!” Then my conscience got me and I lowered the bow thinking ”I can’t do it as Chris loves that bloody cat!’ I looked up and it was still there, surely this is a sign that it’s meant to go! I drew the bow back again and took aim only to lower it again, as I got hit with another wave of conscience!

I made the mistake of telling the story that night and would you believe that that rotten cat got its revenge by disappearing never to be seen after that night. To this day almost 50 years later I’m still considered a cat murderer.

Éloize got to 18. That was hard to take, almost 1/3 of my life by my side. She was my buddy, followed me like my shadow.



I've seen a 25 year old once.

I was luckier with Éloize, alert and playfull until the last week.

My grandmother's cat died at 29. Blind, deaf, scrawny. He managed to make it to the food and water bowls. He looked terrible the last time I saw him the year before he died. He just wanted to be left alone. Never was very social.

Quite arrogant for your 5th message on Epiphone Talk.

Suggestion: just make sure you NEVER click on the Backstage portion of this forum ... or stick to your Goldwing page.

Other than the fact that cats kill native wildlife, my main problem with them is that they're not dogs.

Which is a good thing

I'd have a cat, but my dog looks at them as a food source. My dog is a rescue and they recommended that she be the only pet.

Years ago we had a Chinese on the way almost into Melbourne, it’s dim sims were famous! Then it was found out that they WERE using Cat as an ingredient, Never the same after that!
