So over the weekend I am embarking on the task of moving this site’s hosting and domain registration. This will no doubt involve words I don’t usually say. I’m a little worried.

I figured with that sort of friendliness she had to belong to one of the neighbours so said hello, but then sort of ignored her. So time goes by and she’s still hanging around. She often says hello to me outside and occasionally we find birds neatly eviscerated and lying on the path to our front door [...read more...]

After losing the BookieMonster Kitteh to the ravages of time I was not looking to get another kitty too soon. We thought we would wait until next year. But fate goosed me (as usual) and a friend had a beautiful black and white cat in need of a home. So guess who has a kitty? In honour of new Kitty I thought you might be interested in some cat books we have for sale. Full of luffly cats.
