Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / March 2008EEEK!
So I'm sitting here peacefully reading the ng. Suddenly four ICE-COLD paws land on my neck and Caliban settles down in a meatloaf on my neck/shoulder. He'd been outside for a bit and needed to come in and warm his icy pawsies. On Meowmie's neck. When will that cat realise he is not a small kitten any more and he cannot fit onto my neck? He spilled over onto my shoulder. I could feel the claws gripping and then kneading as he found his balance. And those icy cold toes slowly warming up.  SignatureMarina, Miranda and Caliban. In loving memory of Frank and Nikki. > When will that cat realise he is not a small kitten any more and he > cannot fit onto my neck? That's hilarious!!

That might you more comfy but I'm sure it wouldn't make him happy! Charleen, chuckling at the thought of it. >> So I'm sitting here peacefully reading the ng.

There is more than one of those....I have one. Rowdous, the 19# brown tabby who at age 7plus, still thinks he's a kitten and wants to play with the "girls" here (who react to that idea like PePe LePew's heart's desire: eeeww!). I will be sitting with my legs stretched out reading and suddenly 19# of purring fur launches itself off my knees toward my lap for a love fest. Being blind in one eye, he has awful depth perception for jumping and usually misses, landing and crumpling on whatever I'm reading! I see nothing to remedy this but to give him his love fest. OT - Marina, I was watching tv the other night about there being only two authentic designated "pirate" (skull/crossbones) flags known left, one of which is in a "pirate" museum in Key West, FL. They said the other one is in a naval museum in Finland (I don't know why, this program was all about the famous pirates who roamed the Caribbean near FL.) Do you think you could find an online link to the Finn pirate flag? Thanks in advance...... > OT - Marina, I was watching tv the other night about there being only > two [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > think you could find an online link to the Finn pirate flag? Thanks in > advance...... The only naval museum in Finland that I can find that boasts a real pirate flag is the one on Aland (the correct spelling is Åland, but that doesn't show up on all computers), a small autonomous group of islands between Finland and Sweden. Haven't been able to find a picture online, though, sorry. The sources say it is from the 17th century. SignatureMarina, Miranda and Caliban.

In loving memory of Frank and Nikki. Thanks for your 411 on this, Marina....I researched lots on Alands, their maritime museum, another one in Helsinki, as well as some history of Finland and the Alands....strange mandates, like you have to "log in" (?) before you're allowed to see the websites, etc. I give up; guess the 17th century pirate flag is so valuable the authorities wish to keep its existence, much less its whereabouts, a deep dark secret from online curious/JollyRoger fanatics. I don't consider it wasted efffort, though. The FL museum also stated that the two flags were from 1600's. > So I'm sitting here peacefully reading the ng.

It's a good thing you're there to provide that important service for Caliban. ;-) SignatureAdrian (Owned by Snoopy & Bagheera) Cats leave pawprints on your heart http://community.webshots.com/user/clowderuk "Adrian" >> So I'm sitting here peacefully reading the ng.

My critters kept me up most of the night wanting to play. Kyla > So I'm sitting here peacefully reading the ng.

Caliban is a cuddler whether he's cold or not, but the icy cold toes on my neck does bring an extra spice to cuddles. ;) Your post reminded me of my sister's cat Mathilda (who was Frank's littermate). Not that she weas stand-offish at best, but on cold days she liked to sit at an open window and sniff the air, then she would suddenly dive into my sister's lap and press her head against her chest. My sister assumed she got cold ears. :) SignatureMarina, Miranda and Caliban. In loving memory of Frank and Nikki. > So I'm sitting here peacefully reading the ng.

This wasn't the first time, and most probably not the last time, he's done it. SignatureMarina, Miranda and Caliban.
