Our cat is a tad stressed at the moment due to an uninvited visitor. He’s a gorgeous, very skinny tabby with white paws and friendly to us, but wants to take over not only Bobby’s garden, but also her food. Understandable as he is really emaciated and obviously not that well cared for by his …

Bobby loves television
Our cat is full of surprises and the latest is that after 4 years with us she finally has discovered the joys of watching television. Usually she doesn’t care much about it when it’s on and often just snoozes, but for a couple of days now she is transfixed by it. She responds to …

A Catty Christmas
I’m back from home in Cologne, where I spent Christmas with my dad and my sister and Dusty the Norwegian Forest who was originally my mum’s cat. She’s is the most adorable pretty cat. And she’s very different from Bobby – Dusty is an excellent hunter. She brings in mice, much to my …

..is easier said than done. A few months ago our cat started to develop a sleeping or more precisely waking up pattern which clashed with ours.

A friend for Bobby?
A few weeks ago I have written about a little black and white cat, which ended up in our living room (How Bobby changed her colours). Yesterday evening I finally met this cat. She is very pretty, small and can’t be older than a year. She has white socks and belly and a black head …

How Bobby changed her colours!
Our cat has taken to wake us extremely early, which is quite exhausting and annoying. We try to make sure we entertain her enough, but if we don’t play with her in the evening she just snoozes and is bright as a button at about 4.40 a.m.! Even the birds think she is mad and …

Don’t choose a cat by its colour
The other day I received a press release from Cats Protection containing statistics of cats taken in by their four largest adoption centres. Black and white cats topped the list with 1355, closely followed by Tabbies with 1201 and black cats with 841. The reason for this is simple: black, black-and-white and tabby cats are …
