I Have a Thing About Cats...

Hi chums!

I thought it was about time that I let you into a secret of mine - well actually it's probably my worst kept secret...Since I was very young I've always LOVED cats, I say 'loved' what I mean is OBSESSED! I would always choose a cat over a dog any day, if I saw a cat on the way to school or nursery I would just stop in the street and stroke it - or attempt to anyway sometimes they just wandered off in the opposite direction leaving me in tears!

Unfortunately my Dad is allergic to cats so I've never had one as a pet and probably won't until I have my own place! However I am the sort of person that when I go round someones house and they have a cat I pay more attention to the cat than the person...oops!

I think my love for cats came from when I used to visit my Gran - she always had a cat around the house the first was called Smokey.

Beautiful Smokey - she even licked Marmite off my finger once!
A few years ago my Gran also took in a cat who they called Kit, presumably short for 'Kitty' - original! I though he was one of the prettiest cats ever, he has a gorgeous pattern on his face and back and the whitest belly.

And again
As my parents have allotments, I used to spend A LOT of time over there when I was young. As gardening was never (and still isn't) really my 'thing' I was always on a mission to find a cat. There was a ginger cat called 'Maveric' who was 'my' first allotment cat - I almost used to look forward to going to the allotment just to see him!

Not so long ago there was a black and white cat there who didn't seem to have a collar so was nameless to me!

Clearly seen something of interest!

What a poser! Look at the long eyebrows - so sweet!

Awh I love it when cats do this - I'm so sad haha!
 A little closer to home and our neighbour has recently bought a black and white cat named Dexter. He's a mischievous yet curious character who seems to think he owns everything - even OUR living room carpet!

One of Dexter's favourite things to do is roll around on his back - in MY living room!

Dexter has a serious thing about windowsills

Bundle of mischief!

Trying to get into our house - breaking and entering!
 I hope you enjoy these pictures and share my LOVE for cats!

    Oh my gosh, this could literally be written by me! I'm obsessed with cats. Really. O b s e s s e d. Also, I can't have one because of my dad, he's allergic. If I'm on my way to something on my bike and I see a cat, I always stop and I've been to late so many times because of it, haha! I love this blogpost, it's just way too accurate haha!

    Love, Kim

    I LOVE cats and I love this post. Dexter looks the cutest. I'd also like to take Kit home too, such a cutie with that white vest. I cannot wait to get my own cat. My fiance said we could get one, but I just moved to Canada so I am not so sure yet. I know I can bring it back to the UK for a small price. I just love cats.
