A Budding Mewmismatist in the Works

SaorAlbaSaorAlba Posts: 7,593 ✭✭✭✭✭

While sorting out coins this morning to take and cash in my three month old mewmismatist thought she would help out. I have three black cats, all of whom are great "helpers" when it comes to sorting coins and taking off with the coin wrappers etc.

Her name is Adora Kakeshkina.

    Feral cats are the #1 large invasive species in the US. They have decimated native bird populations in some parts of the country.

    Your pets are "cute" as far as any cat can be "cute." just please keep them in the house.

    I totally agree! My cats have lived longer and better lives by being indoor cats. See my signature, my oldest cat made it to 20.5 years old.

    most people would rather have cats than rats and mice

    what metal content does Adora Kakeshkina like best?

    Feral cats do not attack rats - the rats are much faster and will injure or kill almost any cat. As for field mice, they are normal parts of the ecosystem. A cat is not. It is an invasive, destructive species - kind of a mammalian Japanese Beetle but worse.

    Silver, her older brother once snatched a 1959 quarter off of a table and took off with it.

    Our tux cat, Skippy, aka Retardo Montelcat, is an edit cat who "helps" me with my articles.

    This is Boonk Boonk and I about 30 years ago, Boonk's loved being my hairdresser when I got out of the shower, she also had a 100% accuracy rate of distinguishing fake gold necklaces and such from real gold one's, because she could tell the real ones and snatch them and run off with them and hide them in her stash, She left me at age 23, I miss that girl

    Also why you should always adopt from shelters, not buy from breeders. My wife and I have 3 very friendly indoor cats. She somehow pulled off this photo of them all. Can you guess which one is called Moose? :)

    They do like paper coin wrappers.

    Interestingly I was also allergic. Any time I went to someones house who had cats I would get all sneezy and runny nose, but after we got our first two my allergy completely went away.
