Caught in the Act

23 January 2017 By Alan Straton

Caught in the Act

So our Ginger cat Fred is not quite 'A Street Cat Named Bob' but still a character in her (yes, HER) own right. Entering her teenage years has seen her bringing all manner of 'presents' home for her parents - frustrating for the vegetarian at home who inexplicably thinks that Fred will eschew being a carnivore in homage to the vegetarian! The Hadeda's remain an endless fascination for young Fred who creeps up on them and then realises that they may be a 'leetle beeg' so goes into a Big … [Read more...] about Caught in the Act

Rescued Kitten Doing Well

4 October 2015 By Alan Straton

Feisty Fred

On 23 August we published an article about three kittens that had been sealed in two plastic bags and placed out on a verge in Bluewater Bay for collection and disposal - Dumping Kittens in a sealed Rubbish Bag on the verge is a No No. They have since been fostered by Saskia who has done a fine job with the little bundles of joy. Of course my two Longhairs couldn't resist the temptation to assume the position of proud Mom to a Ginger so we finally took delivery of Feisty Fred a week … [Read more...] about Rescued Kitten Doing Well
