Following the departure of Nimrod we have a new kid on the block.
He (think it's a he) looks a handsome well fed chap, Foinavon. Obviously not a stray.
Think you're right Kenny. A good thing about him is that he is not camouflaged so doesn't trouble the birds in my garden.
I wonder what would be a good name for him. I call him the Holy Ghost as he is completely silent, puts in an appearance only occasionally and disappears without trace. I would call him the Cheshire cat except he never smiles.

Thinking about it he might be Percy from the Hockney painting.

I've got a photograph of a maybe 8 year old Hockney on the sands somewhere,probably Brid or Scarborough, holding hands with his mum and my aunt. My aunt was a good friend of his mum and I phoned her when my aunt died, but she'd moved.
I knew Hockney was born in Bradford Kenny, pity he didn't give your aunt one of his paintings.
He was born in 1937 so you would expect his mother would be a centenarian by now if still alive.

Oh, she would, well over 100 I would imagine, Foinavon. My aunt was born in 1902 and I imagine they were a similar age.My aunt was also a friend of Sir Edward Appleton's sister, but I've only known one poster on here who's heard of him. His name was Assessor, long gone.
Interesting coven, your aunt's. Had a vague feeling that I had heard the name but had to google him. Nearly 50 years since I last attended a physics lecture.
Funnily enough of the 4 "Houses" at school I was in Appleton House which took its name from Sir Edward who attended there.
Hated physics, sat at the back of the class with pals working out next week's chart placings as we had a betting competition going.Forecast the Top 20. lol

cherubs asssisting at the coronation of a cat. You don't see that every day tbf.
Sorry that there was no young ladies with big knockers in my pictures.
That cat's the same colouring as 3 of mine. Sadly the chick bears no resemblance to my long term partner.
Thanks mini me, appreciated.

nothing pisses me off more than people who find cats and dogs cute :/
This picture tells a story, even kenny would do well to find anything negative about this
I am looking after a neighbour's white cat called Tina this week, kenny. House cat, I don't really approve but she doesn't want to leave the house, outside scares her.
ok, good luck mate. Just keep it fed and watered (no milk, except cat milk) and if possible bring some grass inside, in a tray. Helps their digestion, but a lot of house cat owners don't do that, sadly.
I'd half forgotten about this. Good work bigmo, love the one with the blue eyes.
While I'm here.

I tried to upload something similar Kenny but they refused it. Tried 4 times.
Appreciate you getting up so early to post that, bigmo. ;-)

Hi Kenny,
Here is a photo of my latest garden ornament.
He/she started coming to eat food put out for the birds and was clearly starving.
I've started putting out some proper crunchy cat food and he/she turns up regular as clockwork.
Still scared though and runs away when approached.

Looks cute, Foinavon. Persevere, he/she will come round. My cat Leo was terrified of everyone a few years back.
It's very young, Kenny and is not dishevelled which makes me think it's not feral. So why is it scavenging for crusts? I can't understand why people don't feed their pets properly. I would rather give it a handful of cat food than look out one morning to a pile of blackbird feathers on my lawn.
If you remind me which town/city u r in, F, I'll get the number for the local cat's protection. They may be prepared to come and try and trap the cat to see if it has a chip. It may have jumped in a van and be 50 miles from home. Look on lost/found cat/animal sites as well including facebook, and take a photo and put in the found section.
I suspect it comes from the nearby council estate. I'm not sure I want cat protection people messing around in my garden but I'll certainly look on the lost and found sites. If it becomes friendly enough for me to pick up, I'll take it to the vet to have it checked for a chip.
