    I can confirm one does not own a cat. A cat owns a human.
    absolutely!

    Ours is now 18 years old.

    Don't get a long haired cat.

    Or if you do make sure it likes being groomed.

    I miss my old cat still.

    Squirrels are difficult to catch. Though we had one cat who caught 2 in 24 hours. God I miss Mostyn.....

    If you had put cat food on your uncle, she may have jumped in. Though I doubt it.

    We've got four cats. Two were feral kittens from the RSPCA, one stray who just turned up and didn't go home and the new one who is a four year old from a cat rescue charity. The new arrival is a 8kg Maine Coon who we're trying to integrate without him killing any of the others. We've just switched from bringing him down in a dog pen every evening to putting him on a lead. He's great with people though!

    There are too many unwanted cats around without people ever having to buy them from a breeder. Pedigree cats have a lot of issues anyway. Always get a cat from a rescue centre or charity.
