Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / May 2004Felix -animated cat for your Windows environment
Hi All, Perhaps most of you have this program, but if not, you can get an animated cat for your Windows desktop by downloading it from alt.binaries.pictures.animals. The note I attached to the file is as follows: >Hi All, > > This is mostly on-topic. Felix is a program that puts an >animated cat with several cute behaviors on your Windows screen. This >is in conjunction with my posting a pointer to it on >rec.pets.cats.anecdotes. I just rechecked it with my virus software >and if you have any doubts, I urge you to do the same. > > If you are a cat lover, you won't be disappointed. The file is >an executable. Just run it as you would any program. > >Regards, >O J I have Felix on my desktop, and he is perfectly harmless and a mighty cute tuxedo boy who does cat things while hanging out near my taskbar. : Hi All, : [quoted text clipped - 16 lines] : >Regards, : >O J > Hi All, > > Perhaps most of you have this program, but if not, you can get > an animated cat for your Windows desktop by downloading it from > alt.binaries.pictures.animals. I've had Felix on my computer at work for several years now. The second best thing to having a real cat at the office.

Before I retired, half my office had it on their computer at work thanks to me. Almost everyone who saw it wanted it and I'd e-mail it to them as an attachment. We owe our British friends a debt of gratitude for coming up with this one. It was done to promote the "Felix" brand of cat food. My sister, who lives in Chelmsford, Essex feeds it to her two cats. We don't get it here in Leftpondia though. By the way, anyone who's news server doesn't get binary groups can drop me and e-mail and I'll send you a copy.

Dakota could have doubled for him a few years ago - but now he's getting a bit too *rounded*! (must switch to the "light" cat food soon - but how to keep Apache's weight UP while keeping Dakota's DOWN is difficult) SignatureJette Goldie jette@blueyonder.co.uk Apache and Dakota http://www.jette.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/kitties.html > Felix can be downloded from > > http://www.catslikefelix.co.uk/ > > Cheers, helen s (laughing) I clicked to enter the site and Felix started meowing.

Jill >> Felix can be downloded from >> [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > >Jill I've had Felix for a long time, but he has never meowed. Does anyone know how to make him meow? MLB Ditto the Hopitus! My Felix is cute, active, but silent! : >> Felix can be downloded from : >> [quoted text clipped - 10 lines] : I've had Felix for a long time, but he has never meowed. Does anyone : know how to make him meow? MLB > I've had Felix for a long time, but he has never meowed. Does anyone > know how to make him meow? MLB Maybe it's a newer version? I've had Felix for a couple of years, and he's silent, also. Maybe those of us who have older versions should download the program again. Joyce > > I've had Felix for a long time, but he has never meowed. Does > anyone > know how to make him meow? MLB [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > > Joyce No no, my mistake! I meant when I clicked to enter the SITE the cat meowed. Not that Felix running around on my screen actually meows. Jill > No no, my mistake! I meant when I clicked to enter the SITE the cat meowed. > Not that Felix running around on my screen actually meows. Yeah, when I went to the site, Felix meowed. First he was behind a door, so his meow was quiet. When I clicked on the door, it opened and he came through it, meowing much louder. Got Smudge's ears to start swiveling. I got the Felix II program and he is silent. But he has some new activities: knocking over a milk bottle and lapping the milk, stepping into a cabinet, and watching tv. Joyce > >> Hi All, > >> [quoted text clipped - 19 lines] > By the way, anyone who's news server doesn't get binary groups > can drop me and e-mail and I'll send you a copy. Remember to get the kitten too - and download the "mischief" option. And watch out on 1st April. SignatureJette Goldie jette@blueyonder.co.uk Apache and Dakota http://www.jette.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/kitties.html > Remember to get the kitten too - and download the "mischief" > option. The "kittens" link only asked if you wanted to order a booklet about raising kittens. The picture of Felix with a box of kittens is very cute, but where's the mama? Joyce > > Remember to get the kitten too - and download the "mischief" > > option. > > The "kittens" link only asked if you wanted to order a booklet about > raising kittens. There used to be (the version I downloaded had) a kitten add on to the Felix. Little kitten version of Felix would follow him around on screen. didn't actually do much of his own, just follow big Felix and watch him.

There are several more add-on modules besides the kitten one. As Helen pointed out, the URL for the Felix web site is: http://www.catslikefelix.co.uk It doesn't pop up on a search as easily as one would think, but by all means go to the web site and download Felix2. It's a lot of fun. O J Where is the Mac version?! I don't use the gates virus. rachel SignatureRachel Polanskis Kingswood, Greater Western Sydney, Australia grove@zeta.org.au http://www.zeta.org.au/~grove/grove.html "They who would give up an essential liberty for temporary security, deserve neither liberty or security" - Benjamin Franklin, 1759 |
