Lucius is a show off. ;)

[erastes.livejournal.com]

He's a monster and takes after his name-sake. I should have called him something more Saintly.

[ter369.livejournal.com]

Ew.

You can't take the wild out of that kitty.

And now I'm gonna hear Oliver! tunes in my head all night ...

[erastes.livejournal.com]

Heh - and there's nothing wrong with that!

[ter369.livejournal.com]

Heh - and there's nothing wrong with that!

I seem to be hearing Bill Sykes and Fagin, which at least aren't overplayed standards.

I remember our old cat brought in a half-alive rat and dumped him in our kitchen while my parents were hosting a dinner party. I had to take the rat out the back and kill it humanely.

I hate cats.

[erastes.livejournal.com]

they are dreadful, i admit it!

[schmoo999.livejournal.com]

But he looooooves you and is showing you much he loves you...

I had a cat growing up that always brought my mom snakes. My poor mother hates and is scared of snakes.

:)

[erastes.livejournal.com]

thank god we only have one type of poisonous snake and rarely in farmland like here!!! eeek!

[leni-jess.livejournal.com]

Just so long as he doesn't take to leaving his love-gifts in your slippers...

[erastes.livejournal.com]

oh no. Thats where Lili is always SICK.

Can I become a Lizard person, or is it too late?

[jezzabe.livejournal.com]

Well, you can't snuggle a goldfish.

[erastes.livejournal.com]

No, but I can flush it down the loo....

[tharain.livejournal.com]

...this is why I've always prefered dogs. That and the cuddling bit.

[erastes.livejournal.com]

i love dogs too, but can't have them when i'm working full-time. one day though....

but The Snucius are cuddle MANIACS, they are more dog-like than cat, i have to say.

[liebesdammerung.livejournal.com]

NO KEEP KITTY

[erastes.livejournal.com]

*tries to flush him down the loo*

[ejab62.livejournal.com]

Nah, you'd miss his attitude too much.

[erastes.livejournal.com]

I should have named him "Saintly" or something

[lovemefearme.livejournal.com]

Lucius: See? See? I am a good little hunter, I bring you food! You give me food and I bring you food! You love me best? Right right? Why are you upset? It's just a mouse! They aren't imporant but for food! I LOOOOOVEEEE YOOOOOOU! *Purrrrr*

Poor Arthur.

[erastes.livejournal.com]

At least they aren't yet dropping dead animals on me in bed, that's one comfort.

[lovemefearme.livejournal.com]

Very true.

[aunty_marion]

Yet.

One of my sister's cats used to go for long contemplative early-morning walks in the allotment. This was Eric, the one with the short fat hairy legs, i.e. a longhaired tabby. Then he'd come back and wake Mummy up with a nice cold wet nose in the face.

And a nice cold wet slug from his belly-hair too. EWWWWWWWwwwwwww!!!!!!

[predatrix.livejournal.com]

Ah. Our last cat brought in a regular parade of Kamikaze Suicide Pigeons[1] through the catflap.

[1] They were either a rare exotic breed of pigeon with no survival instinct, or just deaf, I suppose

Cheers, Pred'x

PS Did you get my last e-mail, by the way? I think it went to your other account.

PPS I have about three accounts myself, only one or two of which I remember to check e-mail for...

[erastes.livejournal.com]

eeek! Pigeons!

I did get your mail, I'm sorry i havent replied yet, I've been back and forth to the hospital and all i can do is slump in front of the pc when i get home.

[predatrix.livejournal.com]

No probs (felt horrible to realise that might come across as pestering you when you're having a tough time) -- I just have three or four e-mail addresses and have been known to forget to check nearly all of them -- and could imagine this being worse at Christmas because people might be using a different account!
Pigeons are very unwelcome dead or moribund. So are live mice, although I always imagine the cat is looking at one and saying 'HUNT! HUNT, DAMN YOu!' and wondering what it will take to teach the subnormal bald cat in the armchair if even fresh-prey-that-can-run isn't giving them a clue...

[erastes.livejournal.com]

Don't worry, I have a load of different ones - Boudicca, erastes, etc etc etc but they are all set up to filter into boudicca, so i get them all there.

Not pestering, I assure you, but I just can't commit to anything right now, I really want to meet you both at the same time, but can't drive out of time while things are so uncertain. Hopefully by then, things will have .. happened.

[busaikko]

So very, very sorry to hear about your mother. *hugs you very very hard*

[erastes.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much, so VERY much

*hugs back*

[irreparable.livejournal.com]

I'm so very sorry about your mum. :( *big big hugs*

[predatrix.livejournal.com]

Me too. Wish I could think of something more helpful to say than 'I'm sorry', but I can't.

[erastes.livejournal.com]

It's so kind of you, everyone has been wonderful.

I'll keep you posted re the meeting, I'd so like to do it.

[erastes.livejournal.com]

Thank you so very much, I'm reeling from all the kind wishes.

[darklocket.livejournal.com]

I remember you posting about your mother back when you started your first journal, and I remember thinking that she sounded like the coolest mother ever, in the way she wholeheartedly supported you and your writing. I don't really know what else to say, but I cried when I read your post, and my thoughts are with you even though I can't do anything to help. <3

[erastes.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much. I can't believe how kind everyone has been, the love I've had makes me cry.

Thank you. *hugs hard*

[aunty_marion]

And by the way, I realise it's probably pointless wishing you a Happy New Year now (having started catching up on your posts and finding out about your mother), but I do hope that you're coping OK. The little bits I read about her made her sound a really nice person.

*HUGS*
