Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / August 2005Camera has shipped! (OT)
The squeaky wheel gets the grease and all that. I kept calling to complain and they removed my shipping and handling charges for the delay. Just got notice my camera shipped yesterday afternoon. Oooh, I can take pics of Persia again! Except she's hiding because it's raining. Oh well... she'll come out to get food :) And Peaches the lovebird is having a big time chirping to the sound of rain.

I shall look forward to *lots* of pictures of beautiful Persia.

It's not really off topic, is it? She is surely part of the rpca family. Tweed > The squeaky wheel gets the grease and all that.

I buy kale for her, and carrots, and she adores Gala apples (she won't touch the green 'Granny Smith' or the 'Red Delicious' - apparently they aren't delicious). Jill >>>> Hooray - at last!

They are a favourite with my geese Shylock and Enid too. They are put to bed in their hut with a bowl of wheat, chopped apples and two rounds of bread in small pieces. I sometimes get apples from my neighbours from their trees. None of them grow Gala, so the geese sulk when they are offered them. You should see a sulking goose. They are big sulkers ;-) Tweed >>>>> Hooray - at last! I'd like to see a pic of Peaches too. It's not >>>>> really off topic, is it? She is surely part of the rpca family.

Imagine the geese have had Gala apples for the past week which I have purchased for them, they are sweet, as you know. But I have run out of them and my neighbour gave me some (still dessert apples unknown variety, not cookers) so I thought they would be just as good. I chop them. I go down to the orchard to give Shylock & Enid - although it was just the same with Honk - a snack. They are at the far end so I have to call them. I have taught them to come to call which was useful once when they went missing. They come hurtling as fast as their flat feet can bring them, flapping their wings on the way to make it even faster. They arrive at the gate, I throw them the chopped apples and they fall upon them. They pick pieces up and start to chew them with their serrated beaks. Then they let the bits drop from their beaks back on to the ground. What kind of rubbish apple is this??? They turn and look at me with their scathing bright blue eyes and march away back down the orchard leaving the apples for the chickens to eat. They hate me :-( Tweed > I'm with Peaches on the Gala apples. They are a favourite with my geese > Shylock and Enid too.

Enid walks about two feet behind when he is on the move like a good goosewife should. She was only hatched last year so Shylock is older than her, he must be about 2 or 3 now. He was used to an older woman - Honk was 21.. Thanks for asking. Tweed >>> I'm with Peaches on the Gala apples. They are a favourite with my >>> geese Shylock and Enid too.

Unfortunately I can't yet, the poultry are down the garden where the tree cover is almost total, I did try, but no good, too dark for the camera. I'm afraid you'll have to wait until winter ;-) If you happened to be impatient you could google the chicken breeds I have, Appenzeller Spitzhauben, Lakenfelder, Sicilian Buttercup/large fowl/ and Barnevelder bantams. Shylock is a pure Emden. Enid is..well..once upon a time my grandfather met one and then a grey goose came along and then..a white one and then I turned out blue and white.. Who cares, as long is he's happy with her ;-) which he seems to be. I was hoping for another Emden though I have to admit. Tweed >>>> Hooray - at last! I'd like to see a pic of Peaches too.

I love red delicious. I am also planning to include kale in my diet. Jill, do you have any suggestion how to cook it? Winnie >>>>> Hooray - at last! I'd like to see a pic of Peaches too.

And maybe you are turning into a bird! :) >> Hooray - at last! I'd like to see a pic of Peaches too. It's not >> really off topic, is it? She is surely part of the rpca family.

[quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > > She's very pretty. :-) She's also very chirpy, usually when I'm on the phone. Unlike parakeets she doesn't spend half the day "squawking". She plays with her bell toys and takes baths (Persia says she's da stupid feathurd fing dat dunks in da water) and generally just has fun. It's too bad when I got her I was too involved with work to really hand-tame her. Jill >> Hooray - at last! I'd like to see a pic of Peaches too. It's not >> really off topic, is it?
