Title: Helloo!
Post by: funkiechicken on October 31, 2011, 21:15:06 PM
Hello! I'm Sarah and a newbie  ;D I have lovely black fluffy cat called Nuggie aged 9, who's been with me since 9weeks  :Luv2:

I was introduced to the site after posting about my missing cat Tazi on the national register nearly 2 weeks ago and Sam emailed me with some tips. Sadly Tazi had passed away aged 13&half  :( thankfully, just through illness/natural causes and just decided to go to sleep elsewhere. It's been hard but grateful I found him and got to bring him home, even if it wasnt exactly the outcome i wished for  :(

So Nuggie is missing his big brother and its still early days for me but its nice to see so many people as nutty about their "babies" as me! lol
xx

 :welcome: to Purrs   ;D

Glad you've found us, I'm sure you'll enjoy it here.  It really is a very friendly forum with lots of friendly helpful advice, if ever needed, and of course lots of fun.

I do feel it my public duty to warn you though that it can be a teensy bit addictive  :Crazy: You have been warned  :evillaugh:

Sorry to hear about Tazi :hug: Very sad :hug:

thank you!!   :Luv:

I am finding it rather addictive already! and i sense I may be ending up with nice old household of cats that i wont be able to resist!! haha my other half wont know whats hit him  :rofl:

Thank you about Tazi x hes was such a character and it was such a shock but I am blessed to have had him and I can be proud that he was such a happy lil lad and I gave him a good home  :Luv2:

i do hope to get a companion for little Nuggie next year, if the grumpy old baby will welcome one! Like I say, being on here he may end up with more new friends than he could growl at lol

Hi Sam!!

I love this site!!  :thanks: i am soooo going to fit in!  :rofl:

Ano! Poor Nuggie! :( He is Confidence Zero anyway - his "backbone" (Tazi) isnt around and its firework season to boot!....his eyes are like the size of bin lids most of the evenings, bless him! But he settles when i'm around and goes out for a while when its quiet. His saving grace is his colour, lets him slink around unnoticed lol aww  :hug:

Thank you Gill  :thanks:   :hug: 
Happy there was no pain xx

Now here I am; a slave to SEVEN   :what:

Don't ever say you weren't warned  :evillaugh:

Thank you for ALL for the lovely welcomes!!!  ;D  :Luv2:

So great to find lovely, like minded people!  ;D x

Tazi was my little baby  :( BUT such a happy little chap and i am safe in the knowledge he enjoyed a good life  :Luv:

Post by: funkiechicken on November 01, 2011, 20:35:11 PM
Thank you  :hug:

This forum will end up with my whole collection  :rofl:

The only downside to having a black fluffy cat is that I can never get many photo's where you can see his lovely face, because only the eyes show up!! lol

I love this one - it was taken the in May when they reported it was the end of the World....my facebook caption was "....even the animals are in a state of panic...."   :rofl:

Ooooh,just popped on here to say "hello" to funkiechicken, and what do I spy but pictures of two wonderful handsome puds  ;D

Am so sorry to hear about Tazi, and that Nuggie is missing his friend so much (only to be expected)   They're both beautiful cats, and the picture of Nuggie at the end of the world is priceless!   :evillaugh:

And then of course I spotted the equally handsome Grouchie, showing off his profile  :Luv:

Stuart  :hug: :hug:  Hope the hinting works real soon......  ;)

Post by: funkiechicken on November 04, 2011, 00:36:18 AM
 :nice meet: madwelshie nice to meet you too  ;D xx

sneakiefeline indeed Grouchies tail is very impressive!  :wow: i am beginning to wonder if Grouchie and Nuggie might even be brothers!?!?!........but we'll save that one for Jeremy Kyle  :rofl: xx

Thank you Paddysmum.....I think the end of world, in the grand scheme of Nuggies 'busy' life, was just a meer inconvenience  :rofl: xx
what is this hinting you speak of??  :innocent: Have i missed something??.... :slap: lol

aww Stuart...RIP Fraser (Nuggie & Grouchie's relative)
Nuggie can retract his legs under his body (so if sat on a glass table and you look underneath he looks like 'Hover Cat' lmao) - no mechanics involved tho ;D
Apologies if my cats ability to look like 'hover cat' isnt the answer you were looking for!! lol feel free to  :oh noo: if i am being a bit slow lol xx
 :Luv:  :Luv:


Love this group!   :Flowers:  .....and the excuse to use overdose on expressive smilies lol

And here is Tazi with his own "Pumpkin Smiley Face" Markings on his back!..... :wow: (RIP Unique Little Flea xx)........
Title: Re: Helloo!
Post by: Sue P (Paddysmum) on November 04, 2011, 07:00:00 AM
Oh what fabulous markings - they really are pumpkin like  :wow: :evillaugh:

Stuart is "sans cat" at the moment and would dearly love to have nother grace his life very soon.  This cat-lessness is almost certainly a temporary situation, cos he has his hands full at the moment, but so many of us know how it is when you're catless, and can only look on wistfully, while waiting for the Great Cat God to put us together with another Appropriate Cat (or sometimes a completely inappropriate cat, 'cos the Gods are like that!  ;)).   :hug: :hug:
Title: Re: Helloo!
Post by: funkiechicken on November 04, 2011, 23:00:02 PM
I nearly fell over when I first saw his pumpkin face! haha You couldnt tell until he sat down, he could be a bit of a snob and I always think it was a way to turn his back on me and STILL laugh in me face  :rofl:   :evillaugh:  bless lol

aww big hugs to stuart  :hug:  :hug: i hope your next Beautiful Cat picks you soon!!  :ahh:
I hope you are getting your "feline fix" on here!! So many people, with so many beautiful cats, i am sure you are! :catlove2:
