There’s a new boy about who would like to live here… Well, he’s not new – He’s been “in the area” for over a year. We’re pretty sure it was this stray boy (who I named Takis) that got Mona pregnant. He is/was a bit of a bully, always picking fights with Lloyd so we [...]
Spent a little while in the garden today with the camera, but I’ve almost had enough of blossom photos so I turned the lens towards the cats instead, with the 2013 cat calendar in the back of my mind of course! The pic below has to be the best photo I have of Jay (the [...]
I meant to blog after I got home, before Christmas came along, but I’ve been a little bit busy with some fur babies! I mentioned we were going to get a ginger kitten once I got home to Crete for the Winter didn’t I… But after a quick discussion and my Dad agreeing we thought [...]
That was the question I asked last week… I looked in his usual places – On top of the compost bin, on the fire wood pile… Couldn’t see him… then my eyes focused on this… He had found a new spot to sunbath in… The pool steps to be precise. I’m guessing the metal was [...]
These boys were the first stray cats to turn up way back in 2003-2004. In the early days they were known as “Big Ginge” and “Little Ginge” but soon got christened Sidney and Edward, Sid and Ed/Eddie for short! Eddie was a proper tom, he would only really make appearances for food and was quite [...]
I’m going back a few years now, back to 2006-2007 when Markie was on the scene. He was Van’s boyfriend/husband – They met when she was a kitten, which we weren’t best pleased about, but one day we saw him walk her home so thought he must be a nice boy to see her home [...]
Scott came home one October night in 2008. My Dad rescued him when he was seen trying to get onto the road. Dad knew it would end in disaster, a small kitty on a Greek road, so home he came! A week later I had another phone call from my Dad – Another kitten had [...]
I had to go in and edit Stella’s Family cat story because I’ve had some sad news My Dad found Robyn dead in the driveway, No not run-over, he thinks she was poisened, which is a common occurence in Greece. So he carried her home and buried her in the garden. We had only really [...]
Carrying on with the cat posts, today I’m going to introduce you to Warren, and because the two are entertwined, we’ll carry on with Cleo’s story as well! This tiny little kitten turned up out of the blue a couple of months after my bestest girl cat Charlie had died. I’d been asked if I [...]
In the Summer of 2008, around the time Henry and Felix also appeared we had two other cats turn up outside each night wanting food, both were tabby and white. Robyn was the fluffiest stray cat I had ever seen in Greece but very timid – For a while we didn’t know if she was [...]
