Today is bee-yoo-tee-ful outside. The sun is busily warming my cats and I've got four out of six within-the-apartment windows open and letting in the smell of springtime. There are even crocuses blooming out front! Real, honest-to-goodness flowers that somehow didn't get killed by the psychotic excuse for a winter we've had.

I even got around to some dusting today with the windows nice and open. If Aidan cooperates I might get a walk in. I can't wait for the warmer weather... Then again, wasn't it this time of year that I murdered my ankle? ***shrugs*** I really ought to be walking around more often.

I do love to see cats sprawled out on the window ledge, soaking up the sun :)

We are moving out of our apartment to a house (when I can sell the damned flat!!) and Caroline has told me I can indulge myself with a cat when we get into the new place.

Yay for soon-to-be-having-a-cat! In the case here, there were two on the ledge and two on the floor in the sun-puddle. I love seeing them there too. I also enjoy going up to a pile of sun-soaked cats and hugging them briefly, then returning to what I was doing. I wish you many future days of getting to see a cat in the sun!

Caroline has now announced that SHE wants a cat too, so that mine has someone to play with when we are at work and of course so that she can have one on her knee too :)

We have differing views on what we want though, I want to get a Bengal from a local place (www.leopardspots.co.uk) and she wants to get a moggy from the CPL, I have said as long as they are both kittens and grow up together, I'll be happy - I love moggys too but I have always wanted a Bengal

Isn't that always the way? When Minerva had her kittens, John and I each wanted to pick one of our own, and of course we couldn't give away Minerva who'd chosen us... Then who could refuse to love and nurture an orphan? It's how we ended up with four. :)

Those bengals are gorgeous! I imaging they're on the expensive side too. I agree that getting both to grow up together is probably the kindest way to do it. I love raising kittens!

Arent they stunning :) and you are right, they arent cheap. They run from 'Breeding quality' to 'Show quality' to 'Non Show quality' a Non Show quality one is anything between £350 and £500, which I know is a hell of a lot of money, but I am going to put some by out of the move to buy one, I guess other guys would by a 42" television or a Bose sound system - ME? I just want a cat :) (think I have mentioned before - I prefer cats to people)

I want a female (I believe that they will doctor her first so I cant use her to breed) and am going to call her Isis :)

Wow. That is a lot of money. But they're amazing. :) All our cats were initially freebies. But wow it would be nice to have a spotted one someday!

And I can totally understand preferring cats to people. There are a select few people I get along well with. TVs and sound systems aren't nearly as cuddly.
