Our cat Simpkin who passed away last weekend at age 22 had a penchant for baked beans, sweetcorn and peas. Though he was definitely omnivorous.

And their diet is so good for their dispositions, too. See how well they share.

they're very pretty cats you have there.
Simpkin is greatly missed in the house. He was the loveliest cat in the world and turned dog-people to the feline side on several occasions. We are holding a wake for him this week in our local pub so poeple who knew him can come and get drunk in his honour. He was a very good friend. He's been buried under his favourite sunbathing spot which is quite nice I think. Our little girl cat has just fallen pregnant (we got our vets dates mixed up for spaying...doh)so the circle of life keeps on spinning. And our elder cat, The Professor, is warming to his duties as alpha male Johnson cat.

We had not had any cats for 8 or 9 years after our daughter was born. When we finally got Molly and Cupcake it was amazing how quickly they became an integral part of our home.
I'm sure The Professor will do fine.
Pictures?
Cheers.

I love silver tabbies. our 2 remaining cats are the bother and half sister of a silver tabby kitten we had who disappeared. He was the sexiest cat I've ever seen. I think he was pinched by somebody coz he was just so damned purdy.
I think I lost all the cat pics we had after a formatting recently. But once my sis gets her digi camera back from a friend she's loaned it to I'll stick up some photies

I'm not a cat person, but I think that your post is at best tasteless humor.

I asked about the jousting because along with catapults it's a medieval kind of thing and you do live in the home of the National Jousting Hall of Fame. ;)

On a more serious note, yes I live about 5 miles from the jousting place and have watched it a # of times. But alas no, I'm not a horseman.

Medieval? Ancient (http://www.mlahanas.de/Greeks/war/Catapults.htm) Modern (http://www.trebuchet.com/kit/fat/)
For a while I constructed "Catapults" as a hobby.
I bet you could land a cat some 200 - 300 yards with one of these babys.

It would be determined more by the density and shape of a cat then the hair! :D
So, how dense is your cat!

Actually, after seeing him jump up a tree after a squirrel I now bribe him up the tree by placing a piece of bread on the trunk.
Besides you can't turn him in, he is very patriotic! :D

Oh, I don't have standardised testing. Juniors and *th graders do. Sweet for the rest of us.
School, however, was fine.

I loved the effort Catboy put into cooking up the baccon for the kitties, and taking pictures of it. I give you an A+ for effort. Did it taste good? :P

As opposed to bacon ever tasting bad? Of course it tasted good. I have had better, but it waspretty darn good stuff. Well worth the cookin and photo taking.
