It's been an entire year since I last updated this blog. Oops. Very little has changed in the last year thankfully (though some cats have gotten bigger and others wider!) and only one new addition, wee Gracie, joined the ranks of Horde.
The only foster cats we had in 2010 were stayovers from 2009 and one of them is still with us. Hopefully she'll get a home of her own this year.
I have many interesting things planned for the feline despots in 2011 and will do my best to keep this blog updated. The internet was made for cats afterall!

Brenda recently added a very cool, very simple little cat scratcher to her shop.
It's just a simple pole-on-a-carpet one with a little bobble but the materials it's made from are at once simple, ingenious and a little dangerous if you happen to be a cat...
This is what happened the day it arrived:
And this is a typical evening here - with a kitten swinging out of it:
(I am a bold fosterer and laughed at the last bit :D )

I Can Has Gerbil?
Just because she's blind doesn't mean she can't tell where the rodents live:
This is what she's waiting for:
The other cats aren't allowed on the coffee table when I'm cleaning the tank as the gerbils have no fear of them (and why should they? Cats stay on the other side of the glass) but I reckon I've got to be faster than a blind cat :-)

The Kitten moved out a couple of weeks ago and now lives with some friends of mine and their two cats and two dogs. They used to be a four cat family but lost two of their rescue girls very close together so a kitten seemed like a good idea (they always do right up until they arrive!). He's settled in brilliantly and has injected new life into his two older siblings :-)
Poor Cheesecake pined a little so I bought him some new toys that have to be kept securely locked in a metal box to stop them getting destroyed. Here's why:
Exhibit A:
(see the bits of fluff caught on his claws? There's only so much disemboweling one cat toy can take you know)
Exhibit B:
(the feathers lasted less than 2 minutes - a sure sign that pet birds are not in my future)

No Wash!
The kitten was being demanding earlier while I was on the phone so I passed him over to his babysitter :-)
