...........................or the box it came in?



No contest!

Hey when did you catnap my Blonde - and put her through the duplicating machine?   <shock>

She would also prefer the box .....

It's not a box, it's a "cat trap"  ;)

Our cat would love Santa to bring her  a rucksack.

Bit embarrassing, when cat fur flies out of your bag, in the middle of Waitrose.  :lol:

Oh! How beautiful! They look just like my cat, at least in that position. My Dave is a real ugly mug when you see his face. I see one of yours has that pinkish tinge around the eyes. Dave has it a lot, it makes him look like he has been fighting. He hasn't! Don't they all just love a box, and the more they can squash in it the better.    :)

Hang on, that's my Bill isn't it? Oh no, can't be, neither of them is currently nursing a stinky oozing abscess in their left ear (£70 to the vet, kerching!Thanks Bill)

great pic! I have given my utterly unused scratching post to Battersea (Old Windsor Branch) from whence we rescued Bill in June.
...likes scatching my carpets though....
small, Welsh and almost certainly bonkers, but can be tamed with Talisker, if required

Plum, I have always thought there should be some sort of cat swap thing, as cats only ever like scratching posts, toys and special soft sleeping things that other cats have used! I am sure at Battersea the cats loved it as it smelled of Bill!
I always have a piece of coconut matting sunk into the flooring at the entrance to my front door, a really large piece and my cat uses that!
Poor Bill, though. I hope his ear is on the mend now. I dread the cost of a trip to the vets. Glad he is all settled in with you though. I have wondered often how you are all getting on.
Is it my imagination, or do there seem to be rather a lot of white cat owners on this site? There are loads of cats near me, but mine is the only all white one!    :)

I could re-sell it on eBay, but I'd need a box to send it in!

try buyer collect and the cats can scratch the people, or is this a really bad idea?

ha ha. Allotmentann, thanks, Bill is an absolute darling and a delightful combination of cwchy and chunky independence - loves his attention, particularly if you scratch is back, but then goes out and kills leaves with devastating force. :lol:

Bill used a scratching post when at Battersea. But of course, not the one bought for him here. I like to think of another rescue cat using his one, scratching the beejaysus out of it!!
