I am cat sitting this week - this is our grand-cat, named after a great Manx witch of legend, but usually just called Tegi. As you can see, Tegi does a fair bit of sitting herself -

And has a good choice of window sills. Sometimes she deigns to play;

I hasten to add she also has a cat-flap, and comes and goes as she pleases, and not only in the back garden but also the fields behind the house.

curiouswombat: (notes from a small island)
There has been an awful lot of snow all over the UK. We had some too, but I didn't take many photos, I was too busy coping with getting to and from work, and ours wasn't much compared with other people's. I do have some pictures of where Daughter-dear lives though, under the cut, also some pictures of flowers still trying to survive the winter in our yard, and a picture of the festive flapjack that I posted the recipe for during the week.

The flapjack picture is because I realised, through comments, that in Amer- English 'flapjacks' are a sort of 'pancake' and so, in English English, would be some sort of drop scone or Scotch pancake. Whereas the recipe is for British flapjack and so something rather different...

But also, under the cut, is a bit of reminiscing. Bojojoti posted a picture of her daughter's new rescue kitten, and he reminded me of the ginger cat we had when D-d was little - so there are also some pictures of Cherry.

My friend D. from Skye has four beautiful cats.

When we met up last October, however, she was not showing me pictures of her own cats but pictures of a friend of hers, in New York, who looks after a colony of feral cats - ensures their health, sees to speying and neutering, generally caring for them.

At the weekend I had an e-mail from D. to tell me about a major threat to the cats and the work B does caring for them. She asked me particularly if I would ask my LJ friends for help - the full text of the e-mail is under here )

As D says, the cats are doing a good job of keeping down the rat population, and so getting rid of them would not be in the health interests of the people of the neighbourhood, so if you want to help, please do click and sign, (http://savedumbo.com).

Thank you.
