Aspies For Freedom

We three love cats, we have 8.

Sutika  the oldest...she's black
Hamish....... & Tabitha...both Tabbies..Hamish has a white diamond on his back
This pair's mum & uncle were poisoned when they were 5 days old & I reared them ....so I am the cat's mother.
Gobolino & Bastet....both black.
Mercury...silver tabby, Pewter..pewter coloured & Ebony....black.

They all have their own ways & their own spaces & both of my sons 'cat talk' to them.
When we go for walks they follow behind.

When I was a girl we had a cat called hairpin ( shape) He chose dad as his pet & rode on his shoulder on the motor bike, but only when going fairly slow.
When we progressed to owning an old Rover...running boards etc.....hairpin could hear the car coming 10 minute before dad came home & used to go to meet him.

A few years ago, before I moved to Scotland, my neighbours ( also cat mad ) traveled to Oswaltwistle from home ( only 10 miles or so ) & when they got there, they heard meowing, one of my kits was lying under the car bonnet, thankfully unhurt, but terrified.

You are quite right, I would quite like to hide in a tree.

OH, THEN I could kill the (cruel ones I mean).
I cannot abide cruelty.

I'm so sorry to hear that.

Two of our cats were poisoned 6 years ago & we have never got over it. Consequently my youngest son worries if one is missing for a few hours..

Oh  my son he has his own  mouse, he also looks like two of mine.

If I put all of my cats here it will take up a full page


But might just do

I can't do it today, got to get ready to go out, but will put them tomorrow

I think that they can & do, they certainly have smug expressions.
I wish that I could describe this properly, but one of our cats seems to be able to morph his face & when he does I nearly die laughing

His ears are back but not flat, his whole face seems to elongate, particularly his nose & he appears to literally be looking down it.
This is like something out of a Speilberg film
I doubt that I would ever manage a photo though.

I had to bring up three orphaned at  5 days kits.....although there were other cats about, they never learned to meow, one doesn't talk at all & the other squeaks.

I have a 'chirrup' cat & mercury is called squeaker , if you stroke her, she is silent, but the moment you stop, she squeaks for more.

Have any of you had one that 'chatters' when seeing a bird?

She looks like our Hamish, but he has a white diamond on his back.

She loves you now...2 or 3 days & she'll be on your knee
