Livin in ceiling not so grate akshully

I love weekends, even when I’m on holiday! Saturday mornings are for lazing around and getting up late, but once we have dragged our lazy selves out of bed, our day normally kicks off with the Oddbox (it’s from the BBC, so I can’t embed it, you’ll have to click the link).

A Very Nice Cat Indeed

I have been rather busy over the last couple of days, so not enough time to blog (although lots to blog about).

I have decided to follow the excellent example of Mr Gordon McLean and simply post a picture of a very nice cat instead. Meet Black Cat, who is gradually turning into Grey Cat […]

Brain drain

I’ve had a bit of a crazy day. In fact I also had a rather crazy yesterday, the cause being my school laptop, which died rather spectacularly in the middle of a lesson. The lesson went slightly to pot (that’ll teach me to rely on super-whizzy interactive whiteboard stuff), but the kids thought it was […]

Go Phoebus!

Jen left this comment on my post about life with a three legged cat:

“I own a three-legged cat named Phoebus. Unlike some others here, he was born this way so he doesn’t know any different. Still, three-legged cats (and other quadrupeds I suppose) are amzingly agile and, in Phoebus’ case, are only set back […]

Santa Claws

Black Cat loves Christmas. Christmas is when he gets dozens of extra toys. We don’t go in for the buying presents for our cats thing, but we do put temptation in their way. We have a Christmas tree.

I spent yesterday in a race with Black Cat, I was trying to decorate the tree, whilst […]

In praise of Sergeant Podge

In ancient Egypt cats were worshipped as gods. Cats have never forgotten this.One such cat is the remarkable Sergeant Podge. A cat so resourceful that he has trained his owner/slave to give him a lift home every day after he has taken his nightly stroll around the local golf course. Not many cats are enterprising […]
