phew, so glad he's home!

we lost my baby boy Claude - just never came home.  now have (Roxy's) two kittens, one is the spitting image of him, the other acts like him, and of course he's always in my heart...
(and 2 others - mustn't forget them! the evil tabby & the pain-in-the-neck one!)

It's that dreadful feeling that creeps over you, and you can't sense the cat in the house. Very disquieting.

Couldn't have been mousing for two and a half days in this weather - none above ground!

I kept forgetting to ask if he was back, glad to hear he is.....Cats must be the freeest of pets, unless they are house cats, we are going to have a house cat when we start the garage and I hope I can put it on a harness to take for a walkies around the garden!!!! A cat would enjoy hidding here and peeing everywhere, thats one reason we did not have one here......dried cat pee is not the nicest aroma!!

Echo is an older moggie and needs a bit of extra love and reassurance. And glad to hear Rio came back safe and sound. Sorry to hear Claude never came home. I never read this section as cats are my first love and sad stories so so upsetting.

God bless all pussycats!

I love Rio to bits and am so sad that his sister, Candy, went missing a year and a half ago - never missed a night in her own bed till one night she didn't come in when called and that was it. Poor Candy RIP

If I sit still and think about a cats I have loved and who have loved me I can almost feel them sitting on my lap with soft and calming solidity.  :) I raise a toast to all the ones we have loved and lost to the great litter tray in the sky.

Interesting, I have 4 cats the youngest of which is about 4-5 months now and still doesn't have a name :o

First she was being sold along with her litter mates, a friend wanted her to join an older cat but said cat died and she then felt guilty so postponed "replacing" her and then decided her son should have a dog instead ::) so this kitten stayed which is fine as I'd lost Jack on the road while the litter was young, but I can't work out what her name is!

She seemed to be an Isis type at first, but then spent a while testing out Pearl, Silk, and Echo funnily enough because of her vocal tendencies ::)  She can hold an entire conversation with you and you still don't know what she actually wants to convey (her name maybe?) ::)

As her mum is going to be spayed shortly I am wondering about Omega (the ultimate kitten!) and she seemed happy with Mega-cat and Meggie Moo but is already starting to ignore that ::)

Her mum is Twiglet because she was a tiny tortie runt of a kitten and looked like one ;D while Twigs' litter sister Amber was identical but normal size and with a wee orange stripe on her nose.

I kept one of Twig's daughters last year after losing Merlin a grey tabby mystical boy.  She is Velvet because of her stunningly black and soft coat, easy :)  Wee madam is a full sister of Velvet and hence my trying out other gemstone and luxury fabric type names but nothing suits her for long ::)

Anyway, sorry to hijack your thread but the Echo name caught my attention :)

maybe thats "the" name then?! 
sounds like Echo would suit her ....
:)

post up a picture, I think a name has to "go" with the animal...
