There's a new program about pets on Finnish TV. They have a section
where they look for new homes for pets. Last night on this section they
had, not one, but *two* cats who look exactly like Caliban! The same
brown stripey spotty fur, the same big innocent eyes, the same white
stockings on their back legs. The same tummy that gets in the way when
climbing up a cat tree. :oD
If you want to see the video, go to
http://www.nelonen.fi/hantapystyyn/j1/loytoelainvideot.htm
and click on "Tiuhti ja Viuhti".
The folowing video, "Rölli" was on the first program, and I really had
to use a lot of self-restraint. I miss having a b/w cat around...

I'd take those two in a heartbeat if I was able to.

Oh how sweet! What pretty "pretenders"! Of course they can't hold a candle
to Caliban, but they are trying very hard, aren't they? <G>

Aww, how sweet of you, Dante. I'd love to have you visit. You must ask
the Big Dood to show you how to use a teleporter.

Yeah, the woman who has looked after him says in the video that he's a
very quiet cat. So, nothing like Dante (or Caliban).

I haven't seen him, but maybe he was here last night, since Mir and Cali
were very rowdy during the night. :)

Oops, I forgot to mention, they are both girls. So Caliban says,
'they're not as HANSUM as me!'

OMG, Caliban must be a purebred... something. :)

I want it too! Even though you saw the video first. I noticed in the
dialogue that they say "kissa" a lot. :)

He's a purebred Food Hound. :) Looks like these girls are, too.
