An unexpected turn of events

[nmg]

We appear to have acquired a cat:

We passed her on Brookside Way, and she followed us home. She then hung around outside for another half hour, and was looking quite lost (ias found her when she went outside to get some thyme).

The garklet seems a little unsure as to what to make of her; he's currently stroking her gently, but he was telling the cat to 'go' earlier. He at least now seems confident that she won't play with his train (although he's quite keen to demonstrate it to her).

I've been on a quick trip to the shops to get some catfood. We'll keep her in the kitchen overnight (with the window open), and put up 'found' posters tomorrow if she hasn't left. She seems in good shape; her coat is in good condition, she has no injuries, she seems free of fleas, and she seems a reasonable weight, but she's doesn't have a collar. She also smells faintly of cigarette smoke, so she's been living around people.

Aww. If I remember rightly, the garklet has wanted a cat for quite some time, hasn't he ?

BTW, what about a proper picture of His Lordship ?

...and so it begins.

it's not quite a
'No Mr Bond I don't expect you to talk I expect you to die'
kind of cat but Alex appears to be working on it :)

Good lord, it's a black and white cat. Every home should have one (or two, or several).

Actually, she is very cute, even for a black and white cat.

Many cats these days are chipped. If you take her to the local vet, they should be able to check for you. Most vets will do this free of charge (and if they won't, the PDSA will).

Also, what an awesomely cute cat :)

Congratulations; you have been adopted.

Unless she's got a 20-a-day Malboro habit of her own.

Nick! This is the cat that was in our home looking smug when we returned from a meal out just now. Flick doesn't know what to do!
