Teifi

[skab]

7 years ago today he moved in.

That's about the correct phrase. You don't get a cat, they move in. Always clear who's in control there

Around new year's eve we moved into an old, run-down cottage. And right in the middle of rebuilding and moving we found a black, very hungry, very desperate cat, trying to dig something to eat out of our wheelie bin, already being attacked by the neighbour's cat defending his territory. We took him (the stray) inside and despite my cat allergies and moving chaos decided to keep him. We looked everywhere if someone was missing a cat matching his description and never found anything, so we took him with us to the new house.

He quickly recovered, despite apparently being a couple years old already and having some minor ailments, and became quite a character, a good cross between total cutie (if he wants something), blood-thirsty hunter (while watching us eating, mainly) and pissed-off diva, short, a proper cat And no really noticeable allergic reactions for me. The one hypoallergenic cat and we find it in the trash.

Afternoons are made for napping.

He looked so comfie i couldn't resist to disrupt him with the camera.

Teifi and his new Gift.

My sister-in-law made him a blankie in crochet. He seem to appreciate it.

Poor Teifi. He has been having a hard time lately with this thing of 2-3 days rain for each day of sun. He tries to go out, places his nose outside the balcony door, feels rain or wind and he goes back to sleep in the sofa with the plushies.

I was trying to take his pic nxt to the plushies but i ended up with one of a rotating cat




Then he notices the camera strap



Eyes concentrated on the camera strap and paw ready for action



Then i put down the camera and petted him.

Teifi ignoring all the Christmas (human) activities to sit in his balcony.

Teifi doing this afternoon what he often does. It was over 30C in the balcony, he was on the shade but on the top of the blankie.

Why Am in Jail?

We were waiting at the vet's office for his anual check up. He doesn't like to be in the carrier and even less the car trip to get there.

He was fine. She said he is a middle aged robust small cat. He had a little bit of gengivitis though.

You could just start a new thread. Can't have too many cat pics. Muffin's a great name for a cat too.

[PFVA]

I would love to see a Muffin thread. Teifi is still adorable but nowadays he spends most of his day sleeping which doesn't provide the opportunities for pics as fun as when this thread was started.

Testing New Toy

Happy Teifi as sun shines in the living room. He was nice enough to allow me a pic without looking annoyed at me.

"You are not going to water the plant now?" said Teifi's expression as i approached with the water can to do just that.

Becoming a senior kitten now...

[PFVA]

Yeah, he is becoming a senior citizen. He is quieter now but every so often he still has his moments. A couple of nights ago a small green insect flew in and he got very excited trying to catch it. The insect though kept himself in higher points such as the top of the doors and Teifi wasn't very successful in his objectives. Everytime the insect flew fm one point to the other Teifi ran and jumped hoping to reach it. It was fun to watch.

He seems healthy though and he got over the flea thing in 2-3 days after we switched the medication. And he was quite happy i throughly cleaned the house at the time. He loves his house very clean.
