I clicked on the sitting on the table picture and showed aitkendrum. Who asked if I had a paid account. Because he thought it was Perdita!

AWWWWW!!!!!!! So, so, SO cute!

And can I just say I LOVE that one is named 'Phineas'? Such a great name!

Bit more auspicious than Phineas Gage, I suppose! (resisting urge for smiley face ... resisting ... oooh, this is going to be rougher than I thought!)

(and then I automatically added one to the end anyway. Maybe I'm fighting a losing battle)

You have beeautiful kitties. Beeeautiful. With fabulous names. And I hearitly approve of Trollope, though Phineas Finn is still on the "To Read" list. Hooray!

Ok, now that you've said that I don't feel so bad admitting that the only Trollope I've read for pleasure (and hence can remember really well) is The Warden (which I really enjoyed... and if I'm remembering rightly, I wrote an essay about it in high school called "on the nature of snowballs." Mm, me and literary criticism ... ) -- I think I've also started The Small House at Allington, but I can't remember a thing about it.

Oooooh, kitties ... here's hoping the opportunity will present itself to meet them! I tell you what, one of the things I've missed the most living on this windswept little island in the sea is my pets. (we've got a big, stupid, adoring black lab annnnnd barn cats -- generally between 10 and 20 of them -- though a fair few are quite affectionate and one even gets to come inside ... the Grand Old Man).

You didn't go far enough south on the island! Should have come to Ardvasar -- there's a sweet wee ginger kitty that always greeted me by rolling over on her back so I could rub her belly as I was walking down to my bus stop in the mornings over the summer -- and then there was Fatty aka the Moillet aka Highness (aka Sleat, which is his actual name) who would also occassionally deign to wrap himself around my ankles once I'd reached said bus stop. You're right, though, there aren't much in the way of cats roaming the streets on Skye -- I imagine it's probably because of how many dogs there (almost every house has a border collie, crofter or no). But the ones that are here are awfully friendly!
