[lynz85]

[pamela81]

[Shelley123]

Do Harris and Skyle like it Pamela ?

3. The iPhone was launched by which company?

[pamela81]

my 2 like the whiskas but i was watching a program at the weekend that said cats like variety so its good to change flavours and brands to give them a change. im dubious though as it took soo long to get harris to eat properly and find 1 that he likes but i also bought felix for them today

[pamela81]

it was launched by apple

[lynz85]

apple.......................

[pamela81]

QUOTE]

I havent gave ti to them yet shelley going to try them before bed and see how they get on

[angieh]

My two loved some little stick chews (I'm afraid I don't know where they came from or the name) Pip loved them and would chew them happily whilst I held the other end. Didn't think Kizzy would like to chew them, so broke bits off for her ........ she loved them too. If I ever find them again, I'll let you know!

[angieh]

Yes, sorry, Apple.

[Shelley123]

Angie , do you want to guess

[Shelley123]

4. Which country has the international car registration letter A?

[pamela81]

Harris and Skye love chew sticks, thye take them out of the packets when we open them!!! Harris is in the naughty books tonight though so not getting anymore treats tonight!!

[Shelley123]

sorry, yes the answer to question 3 is apple

[pamela81]

[Shelley123]

[Shelley123]

Whoops, naughty boy, Harris
Poor Jerry can no longer get on the worktops due to some problem with his back legs

we have one correct answer

[lynz85]

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh harris what a naughty boy!

[lynz85]

pb austria....................

[pamela81]

angie, he has managed to get teh bread opened during the night and had a go at eating that eventhough he is fed at bedtime, he likes curry, popcorn, black pudding, to name but a few things he now eats after hardly eating when we first got him!!

[Shelley123]

Austria it is

5. Who was the first British monarch to broadcast a Christmas message to the nation?

[angieh]

This is like the chew I mentioned, but the ones we had weren't made by Whiskas

http://www.whiskas.co.uk/our-products-snacks-and-treats-whiskas-sticks

[lynz85]

one of the queens?????????????????

[Shelley123]

Harris does have unusual eating habits, Jerry is rather stuck in his ways :D
I once had a cat, Sybil who loved green beans

[Shelley123]

not the Queen, Lynz

[angieh]

Was it George VI??????

[pamela81]

Harris and Skye like those sticks aswell but they like the asda tiger brand 1s aswell. we give them the whiskas temptations denta bites for their teeth

[Shelley123]

Was it George VI??????

ooohhhhh nearly, nearly :lol:

[pamela81]

im going to guess george the VI hope you diont mind me pb angie :P

[Shelley123]

Haven't found any treats that Jerry will eat

[pamela81]

was it george the 5th?>

[Shelley123]

not George VI but you're very close

[lynz85]

lol@ harris!!! pips not too bad, he does go up on the worktops thinking he's sneaky. i hate it when he licks the tap!! he has been stupid enough to jump on it while we're right there but hes mostly sneaky. licking the plates in the sink and licking the fat out the frying pan!! ooohhh and his most classic, boiled some chicken bones as a stock for my soup, said to OH to put it out his road. 'he wont touch it' says he. 10 mins later i hear this lapping noise, yup hes drinking the stock out the pot!!

[Shelley123]

one correct answer, any piggy backers :D

[lynz85]

george..............................

[pamela81]

Harris will honestly try anything now sonce we got his csytitis doagnosed and treated. Skye however wont eat treats with catnip in them or the white chocolate buttons for cats shes really picky with treats and she wont take them from OHs hand, only mine!!

[lynz85]

5th...............................

[angieh]

OK I'll go George V ............... thought it was the current Queen's father though.

[Shelley123]

lol@ harris!!! pips not too bad, he does go up on the worktops thinking he's sneaky. i hate it when he licks the tap!! he has been stupid enough to jump on it while we're right there but hes mostly sneaky. licking the plates in the sink and licking the fat out the frying pan!! ooohhh and his most classic, boiled some chicken bones as a stock for my soup, said to OH to put it out his road. 'he wont touch it' says he. 10 mins later i hear this lapping noise, yup hes drinking the stock out the pot!!

:lol: :lol: :lol: naughty boy, pip

This is terrible but when we had Tom and he could jump up (he had the same back leg problem as Jerry as he got older ) he used to get onto the work tops and spray the clean pots in the drainer :shock: :shock: :shock:

[angieh]

Was it the 'orrid Edward VIII?????

[pamela81]

naughty Tom!!!! Harris likes the fat aswell, we have to put the frying pan in the oven untl we are ready to wash it. hes away hiding just now because hes been given into trouble quite a few times tonight for various things, just been really naughty tonight whereas the princess is curled up against my leg and has been good all night

[Shelley123]

Yes George v in 1932

[angieh]

I'm afraid that since we've had Monty, I don't mind Kizzy and Pip jumping up on the work surface to get out of the dog's way. Poor things, it's only fair to let them escape.

[Shelley123]

good girl Skye :)

Have awarded 3 to Pamela, 2 to Angie and 1 to Lynz for george

[lynz85]

ohhh no tom!!! my mums cat, when we moved the 1st time to our flat, pee'd on the worktop beside my cooker and on a pair of my shoes!!

[Shelley123]

For Eileen

6. Where is there an American flag that has not been lowered since 1969?

[pamela81]

I'm afraid that since we've had Monty, I don't mind Kizzy and Pip jumping up on the work surface to get out of the dog's way. Poor things, it's only fair to let them escape.

thats good they have somewhere to go angie to escape monty, i dont mind harris being up but when he starts being naughty when hes up is when he drives me nuts, he sometimes come up and "talks" to me when im cooking as the cooker is at teh opposite side of teh kitchen from the worktop hes on

[pamela81]

im going to guess the moon

[Shelley123]

ohhh no tom!!! my mums cat, when we moved the 1st time to our flat, pee'd on the worktop beside my cooker and on a pair of my shoes!!

:lol: :lol: Tom used to spray the electrical sockets and our clothing and shoes on occasions, since he's been gone Jerry has sprayed our clothes twice :shock:

[lynz85]

pb pamela plz

[pamela81]

sounds like tom was a handful!!! ive been lucky, my 2 havent done that

[lynz85]

:lol: :lol: Tom used to spray the electrical sockets and our clothing and shoes on occasions, since he's been gone Jerry has sprayed our clothes twice :shock:

ohhhh no thanks!!! im really hoping pip will never do anything like that! how did u clean the electric sockets?? :shock:

[Shelley123]

sounds like tom was a handful!!! ive been lucky, my 2 havent done that

he was for spraying but otherwise you couldn't get a nicer natured cat excpt for his brother Jerry. Their sister is a little catty and spiteful but then she doesn't have a particularly good life either

[pamela81]

do you know who has their sister shelley?

[angieh]

Yes, I'll go with The Moon too!

Someone, probably Pip did spray a couple of times, once the TV in the kitchen and the other time some things around the sink in the utility room. It seems to be only when he is upset by another strange cat coming into his garden ...... otherwise he's a good boy. Kizzy makes the moves but I've only ever seen her spray once and that was on the car tyre of a friend's car parked outside our house ...... very odd that.

[Shelley123]

ohhhh no thanks!!! im really hoping pip will never do anything like that! how did u clean the electric sockets?? :shock:

we didn't notice him doing it except when the electrics started tripping.
I'm thankful to say we did see him doing the pots, well at least i hope so :shock: :shock: :shock:

[Shelley123]

maybe Kizzy could smell another cat on the car tyres Angie

[Shelley123]

The Moon is correct

7. Border, Leicester and Corrie dale are all breeds of what?

[pamela81]

ho old are they when they start spraying? we got harris neutered at 6month and have never seen him spraying although he does put his tail in the air and it tenses up but flinches aswell

[pamela81]

terrier??????????????

[Shelley123]

ho old are they when they start spraying? we got harris neutered at 6month and have never seen him spraying although he does put his tail in the air and it tenses up but flinches aswell

that's just what they do to spray, Pamela. Looks like he's doing everything but spray, thank goodness

[angieh]
