He is always around the place, meows constantly for attention but will not settle on your lap or sleep with you. He tends to plonk down in the middle of passageways or anywhere inconvenient. His name is Pippin from LOTR. We also had a gorgeous fluffy, grey kitten/cat called Merry (also LOTR) who was incredibly affectionate and put his arms around you when you picked him up but he was killed by a snake (we think). We keep talking about getting another but I don't know if I could face another loss.......kittens are so inquisitive and we have so many nasty things here in Aus.Arizaphalehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11402602175460446158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3387580530162541897.post-23332565604593796162008-02-01T01:21:00.000-05:002008-02-01T01:21:00.000-05:00I love the photo of your kitty.

My hubby is allergic to cats. <BR/><BR/>As for his name, how funny to read the comments because I was going to say that I had two birds named Rosencrantz and Guildenstern who died a tragic death. (that is a story I will have to share some day...) They were also characters in Shakespeare's <I>Hamlet</I>, along with Horacio - they also met a tragic end there as well. But my birds were actually named after the Tom Stoppard play <I>Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead</I>. See the problem? <BR/><BR/>At least I now know that Horacio is NOT named after the character on CSI Miami. Because really, the original CSI is truly the BEST. But I digress.Rose https://www.blogger.com/profile/08258281668078059348noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3387580530162541897.post-19879920386137587432008-01-31T22:05:00.000-05:002008-01-31T22:05:00.000-05:00What a sweet little kitty!

He sounds a lot like our kitty...only she loves everyone but she is more interested in me for some reason.

When I was a kid, I had a book about an orange kitty named Horatio. I read this same book to the daughter when she was little, and she said if we ever had a cat, we should name him Horatio. So we did. <BR/>All of our cats have great people names: Horatio, Chloe, Clark, Vivian and NortonAndihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17193498123027264782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3387580530162541897.post-7384327217936874812008-01-31T20:35:00.000-05:002008-01-31T20:35:00.000-05:00What a great cat!!!

Five cats is a lot. We had two but one died a couple years ago. Sad. Now we just have the one. I just posted <A HREF="http://robogiles.blogspot.com/2008/01/wordless-wednesday-lazy-summer-days.html" REL="nofollow">this photo</A> of her the other day.<BR/><BR/>As for the Theme Thursday ... yes, she does post them early. She posts the themes on Saturday. It will be in the form of a photography tip with the theme in BOLD letters. I can't get into her old site to put a link for you to see but check her <A HREF="http://thelandofka.com/" REL="nofollow">new site</A> on Saturday or Sunday and you'll see it there ! <BR/><BR/>Yeah, I didn't know what DOF was either. But then someone said one of my photos had it (DOF) and I had to know. Mind you, I didn't ask ... I googled it ! I google everything !! (google doesn't look at you like you're a dork !!!) ha haBonniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06703184796850969105noreply@blogger.com
