Omg they really are... I had no idea. I've led a very guinea-sheltered life.

This is my guard cat, Shadow. He watches my booze for me. ;)

Bear in the driveway
 

At our vacation house in TN, this fella guards MY booze.

I think your bear trumps my cat. lol

Very nice kitty, very nice bear.

What sort of chow do you feed the bear? Little kitties, maybe?

And what do you say to the bear when the tequila is down a pint?

I ask him if he would like another.

This is Ivan, the thug:

Oh meow!
Beautiful, Cloud

Looks like my boychiks are moving to London with me, so I'll post pics from there, with their new house-sister Trifle

great! I'm glad that's working out. Cat interaction can be soooo tricky.

Labrat--the guinea piglet is sooooo cute!

but they bite, don't they?

Super good news.

I know it sounds like that... And it is (selfishly) good news. But my Mum has been looking for nice, settled, retired people who want two attention seeking boisterous cats to love on my behalf. She has friends in the age group that is more likely to offer a settled home.

My problem is at some point in London they will have to go outside. Trifle does, and there's no sensible way you can maintain a 3 cat household where 1 is indoor/ outdoor and 2 are indoor cats. I worry so much about this, I agreed if Mum could find someone suitable I'd consider giving them up.

Well then, whatever is best for the kids.

Wow, I had no idea Guinea pigs were so cute!

This is a glimpse of my menagerie.

Hope this pic comes up right.
