An old saying which I find to be very true...

Dogs have owners, Cats have staff

[sunhuntin]

we had a grey and white kitte dumped over our front fence little over a year ago.....dad was determined to take him to spca [vetoed by myself!], an ad in the paper, etc. one year later, tippy is the apple of dads eye.

keep ginger...he looks happy with you

[Sniper]

Get him and call him Dangerous.

[Flatcap]

Cats are for old ladies and the house bound.

Get yourself a good slobbery flatulent dog

[MisterD]

Cats are for old ladies and the house bound.

...and mad single women (are there any other sort) and, yes, gays.

Aspersions on cat owners sexuality from scooter riders

[Colapop]

It's funny you speak of this cat and it's intentions as if you have a choice?

[ManDownUnder]

Mate - I learned a while ago...

if you can point at it and rightly call it a pussy... it will do what IT wants - not the other way around, despite the illusion of control

Congratulations on your new resident. Just try getting rid of him!

[oldrider]

Guess who I saw waiting patiently just outside the window, even as I write?

Mrs O/R is maintaining her resolve, no more animals!

This guy is almost as persistent as myself, interesting battle of wills going on here! I like his style, John.

Blackbird took the words out of my mouth - cats pick their owners, not the other way around!

Call it Smooze!

well it wasnt me Ollrider, but lets say it was.... would you let me in out of the cold?

PS: I like a saucer of Talisker Malt not milk.... just like all pure bread ginger tom's. :spudbn:

Got a kitten dumped on us about 2 1/2 years ago who is as friendly as any chainsaw on P!
Then we had a stray hanging around about a year ago that looked like shit, one eye and clumps of fur missing, skinny as too.
Tried every thing to get rid of it, fed it, gave it a warm box with an old blanket on the back step, let it come inside, but even after all that it still wouldn’t go!
$800 and a year later and we have a fat and happy couch hog that purrs non-stop!
I should own our vet’s house by now...

Dangerous, I just tipped him up and checked. HE HAS BEEN FIXED UP!

If you tell us you have been done likewise or "volunteer to be done" then we will offer you the job!

Yes, we will let you in out of the cold and give you a saucer of Talisker Malt...just like all pure bred Ginger Tom (read neutered) cats.

If able to demonstrate that you can catch mice, rats and birds we will give you your own door key and a special bed all of your own.

One last prerequisite is that you must demonstrate an ability to purrr like a finely tuned Moto-Guzzi on steroids on instant demand when shown affection.

Rashika will be given visiting rights of course but seeing as you will probably not be cut out for that sort of thing anymore I will let her teach me how to purrr instead.( I'm very kind like that)

Cancel that last condition, if Mrs O/R read that it would be me appointed to the vacancy! Sorry Rashika.

Please telephone for an appointment for the final interview.

Try to look like the guy in the pic below when you come to the door. Cheers Pip and John Oldrider.
