Re: at last


Thanks everyone, will try and get pics up but please bear with us, not very good on computer!
We have been on the boats now for over 6 years, first a narrow boat and now we have a widebeam and 2 narrow boats. Smeg was actually a rescue, I went to buy a kitten to keep my boy bengal company and she was on death row in the garden. Her and her brother had eaten first a budgie, then a very expensive macaw! So left kitten and took her home. She has always been completely mad ,steals pen, keys, lighters, jewelreley. Hides in cupboards,drawers,under the bath, falls in the canal on a regular basis, brings fish,rabbits and mice in the boat and does not shut up!! But as she is now 11 she really should be calming down soon. Oh and when we travel we have to lock her in a large dog cage or she escapes and then we have to hunt for her! Never a dull mo

Re: at last


Smeg sounds quite a character, I bet she has a few adventure stories she could tell!!

I hope you can master the posting of pictures as we'd love to see her..

Re: at last


Hi please bear with us am trying. Yes she can swim usually falls in whilst fishing! Has a habit of falling in at night and crawling into bed with me to let me know. Funny she never gets in my hubby's side!! She also harrases the 3 poor dogs and does squirrel impersinations, usually last thing at night in when its raining, not very helpful!

Re: at last


Oh my goodness yours sounds like a house(boat) full of fun I would be terrified if one of mine fell in water, but then they're soft, soppy persians who would expect a life belt to be thrown right away.

Can I be cheeky and ask you to post a pic of your boat/s? Being a Piscean I kind of irrationally hanker after water so it would be lovely to see someone actually living my dream

Re: at last


I'm alternately laughing and shuddering at the image of a sopping wet cat joining me in the bed at night!

Re: at last


Oh, I do love the sound of your madcap cat. I agree I may not look favourably on a sopping wet cat coming in for a cuddle, but that's why we love them!!!!
