purr purr purr

I woke up on Sven/Si/Hannah's sofa, delicately negotiating a hangover and heading downstairs, I found an aboslutely gorgeous Manx cat - no tail, long legs, big paws, overly-affectionate. I've never actually seen a manx before, and this one even had a name-tag saying he belonged to the so-and-so family of this-address.

Of course, I say "He" - I did ask Sven, who went on size of head for gender determination, and the normal alternative is to pick the tail up until the back legs are in the air and have a deex. Which you can't do with a long-haired Manx.

awww, anyway, cats, aww bless. I get my cat back soon - if I do get a flat in Newcastle, my little cat is so coming to live with me.

Then I entertained myself by learning all about Cat Breeds
