Look! Kitten!
Good lord! Is that the time? I haven’t done a blog post yet.
Hm. How about a kitten picture. Everyone loves kittens.
There. Now, if I can only not do that weird thing where I type out my stream of consciousness into the text box, I might just get away with this.
Hehheh. Friends are trying to get us to take this kitten. Well, a kitten; this one was suggested. He’s a handsome rascal, but no. If I’m going to make Charlotte hate my guts again, I’m not doing it for anything less than that ginger tom I’ve always wanted. Or a savannah. Or a snow leopard, that’s the ticket.

Fellow minions might like to know that Her Stoatliness has been ‘somewhat distracted’ today. As if that feline decoy didn’t give it away.
Up several hours before the usual weaselin’ time, it was sitting by the door, salivating, waiting for the postman.
Why?
For he brungeth a new (old) banjo.
There has been much stretching of hide skins, cursing, wrestling and other stuff that I am sure her fellow colonials will be familiar with. Worse, no doubt, will follow when the bloody thing has strings on it.
The best is yet to come.
It says here.

I’ll have you know, it’s another whacky British banjo (which is why so much banging and cursing; damn things are cray-zee).
Man, you coulda gotten me over here a decade sooner if you’d told me the Brits spent fifty years making millions of the world’s goofiest, most insane banjos.

If only there were a way to combine cats and stringed instruments together….but that would be complicated enough to require some kind of ‘String Theory’.

As the new cage cleaner for two house-bunnies, I say pssshaw to your threats of kittentude. Kittens are easy. Damn…if these things weren’t so damned cute (and also make the girlie smile so wide) I’d resent the poop factory I now own. Watching them destroy radishes is almost zen-like.

The equitable solution is to take two kittens – this one and your vanity kitteh. Do you really want the little guy to go homeless or worse??!!!

@Deborah – I realized that when Schroedinger sank his claws into my groin and his fangs into my right ass-cheek when he was about 9 months old…. Little shit…. LOL
@EZ – I propose that we lobby our resident Weasel to add a Weaseltunes page to her site.
@Oceania/LordFlashheart – You Suck.

You need a male Maine Coon Cat. The average Maine Coon tom wieghs 27 pounds. I had a Norwegian Forest Cat for 17 years, that I miss a whole lot. He was a neat cat. Forest Cats are the S-10 version of the Coon cat.

It’s so hard to resist a baby kitteh!
Next week I’ll be in England, but I’m not bringing any English kittehs back home with me, sorry. God knows I have enough of my own already.

Norah Jones is the chick who sings it
don’t suppose it matters much to fleeing SWeasels
I is just a varmint
who fled
the other way
towards the sound
fife, drums, the scent of nitrocellulose

All we’ve been given
By those who came before
The dream of a nation
Where freedom would endure
The work and prayers of centuries
Have brought us to this day
What shall be our legacy?
What will our children say?
Let them say of me
I was one who believed
In sharing the blessings I received
Let me know in my heart
When my days are through
America
America
I gave my best to you
Each generation from the plains
To distant shore with the gifts
They were given
Were determined
To leave more
Battles fought together
Acts of conscience fought alone
These are the seeds
From which America has grown
Let them say of me
I was one who believed
In sharing the blessings
That I received
Let me know in my heart
When my days are through
America
America
I gave my best to you
For those who think
They have nothing to share
Who fear in their hearts
There is no hero there
Know each quiet act of dignity is
That which fortifies
The soul of a nation that never dies
Let them say of me
I was one who believed
In sharing the blessings
I received
Let me know in my heart
When my days are through
America
America
I gave my best to you
America
America
I gave my best to you

PubeFreak! Are you blocking the shower again?
Yes, your American strains are defectively inbred – we’ve just done genetic analysis upon them. They are bad news.
Imperial Burmese Only Please!
Hey Pube – look at this! Is this US Demon-crazy in action?

Assuming you might actually be willing to spend money to buy a cat, these people specialize in Large cats with distinctive ‘wild looking’ coats.

Personally the Cheetohs are my favorite. Don’t know about getting them across the pond though.

Those’re beautiful, Kilroy. There are oriental breeders here, but few and expensive. Mostly because the F1 hybrids come from the States with eye-watering pricetags.
All of these crossed-with-wildcats breeds are apparently quite different from the usual moggie…and not to everyone’s taste.

You hit the mark there, cousin Scott. There were Maine Coon kittens advertised on a board here a few weeks ago. I had to be prized away….

Kittens do almost inevitably grow into cats. You might want to bear that in mind

Yep, one of the cool things about the Coon Cat, is that you can harness them, and do your spring plowing with them.

The kitten is adorable. I didn’t know sheep “Bayed” I thought they “Baaaed” (at least mine did).
My brother had a Burmese named Plato. He was a riot. Couldn’t stand to be laughed at. Like some people (I’m thinking of a particular person who lives in a large white house in a former swamp.)

We had a female Maine coon cat, Glory, best cat ever. She loved water, wherever she found it–bathtub, wading pool, beach–couldn’t resist wading in it. Disposition as beautiful as her appearance.

Savannahs and Bengals do have wild blood. Ocicats and the various “looks like a Bobcat” breeds do not, no matter how much the breeders like to say they do.

Perfect M on the Madonna blessing for that Thomas… You should be blessed to have him Stoaty.
