Title: Ben got a bit wet!
Post by: Gillian Harvey on September 12, 2008, 23:38:23 PM
Oh dear, his coat looks a bit sad! I left him asleep on the sun lounger outside while I went to a job - in the meantime there was torrential rain, and when I came home, I found this rather sorry specimen! Absolutely soaked through - obviously it had taken him a while to realise it was raining LOL!

Poor old Ben - I hope he dried off over time !

 I've been having a look at the member's pictures and it struck me that the pic of you and Ben is one of the nicest pictures I've ever seen of someone and their cat!!!   :Luv2:

Ooh thank you  :innocent:  I actually took that picture using the timer on my camera - it was for my grooming column I used to write in Cat World (about 4 yrs ago now) - it was supposed to have been a pic of me and Joe (as in Scruffy Joe's Cat Grooming) - BUT, Joe had other ideas and no way was he gonna stick around long enough for the pic to get taken - there were many of him leaping out of my arms and me with surprised look on my face! LOL!  :evillaugh: So got hold of Ben instead and he just sat there like a babe in arms  :Luv2:

He's back to his normal fluffed up self now

I saw another cat mag that is doing a raw feeding article this month - I think the slant they are taking is the connection with diet and behaviour. I should have picked it up as if there was any way of changing Willow's, I'm up for it  :evillaugh:

I was thinking kids & tartrazine.

Thats the same mag as my article is in - Cat World.  ;)  They have behaviour expert Inga MacKellar talking about the links between diet and behaviour, although the main slant of the article is to promote the Campaign for Real Pet Food.
