Day 9 I am not proud of what I am about to confess. In my defense, my evil deed seems to have worked, at least temporarily. After yesterday’s near-rumble I decided I needed to sit Tiggy and Casey down together and try to negotiate a peace treaty. Unfortunately neither of them would even agree to […]
As I mentioned in my previous post, Webbox also has a Festive Teaser Wand. I have to admit, this is my favourite of their festive toys as I can actually play with Dirk rather than just watch him play. Granted, I might feel differently after a big Christmas dinner 😉 I really love making Dirk […]

On a cold November day, my spouse and I went to the Merrimack River Feline Rescue Society and fell in love with Goose and all his soft fluff. Unlike some rescue cats, Goose wasn’t shy at all. After a few hours, he was exploring our house with his tail up in the air, sniffing everything […]
THE BACKGROUND STORY TO CUSTOM CATS BY ROLFE MOONEY There is so much I love about cats – their movement, their affection, their softness, they don’t bark at you. Cats have always been part of my life, as a child I used to greet every moggy I met. I had my first cat at 3 […]

The Cat on the Stove Solitude should be that meddlesome Magical Nosy Aunty’s voice that sneaks into your ear which is aching from some Mean comment from a friend or the toxic Office, to remind you of that packet of Forgotten white pasta sauce in the fridge And that one yellow capsicum and the Cup […]

Day 8 A confrontation today! Tiggy and Casey came face to face half-way between the house and the barn, in “neutral territory”. I did not plan on interfering. I figured they would bush out their tails, growl at each other, one of them would back off and that would be the end of it. That […]
The Owl, the Pussycat and the feline behind the scenes… Oh yes, there was also the fabulous man who wrote of my adventures. His name was Edward Lear. He was devoted to me and to other felines who came to know him. In addition to my long luxurious fur, I am world class at the […]
