We left out biscuits and they started going and one day all 4 bowls were demolished but......when I put a camara out to check it turned out it was a great big rat taking the biscuits and not the Cat or his mates.

He's just one of those that needs to be "wild" I suppose.. was he a feral rescue or something originally?
That said he's probably got several other places to go that feed him / fuss him too
He came from Dubai about 12 years ago.
He is an Arabian Maou. But he has lived with us for the past 12 months.
He is my sons. Cat and has gone off for months at a time before but not for this long. The reason we have him is that he started living with a woman 3 doors up in her garage.
So we got him and kept him in our house for a month. But after we let him out he lived here for 12 months and came in and out and fed no problem.
A much travelled cat then!
Still as long as he's happy and getting some grub, all good.

I'm not getting to attached after the debarcle with the little grey cat , weve a chopped up bed settee in the garden ( havn't had time to get to the tip ) and he's taken to sleeping in it ,
he's nice enough , I've nick named horace as he's always hungry ! at the back door in the morning as soon as the keys in . Our other two arn't quite sure yet but tolerate and he must be feeling better after I flea'd him a couple of days ago he did nowt but scratch . If he's still around after we get back of holiday I suppose I'm going to have to take him and see if he's chipped

That reminds me. In laws had a stairlift, and the cat would sit at the bottom of the stairs waiting for someone to come and fold the seat down. Then would jump up on it and sit there while riding to the top landing, where he would jump off and give a mioww in thanks.

The pub landlady wouldn't take anything for Sydney though I offered.
So I took her up a bunch of flowers then a box of cat food and big bag of dried food for the Mum cat. That and a selection of fresh cream cakes as I know she, (the landlady), is partial to them.

Sydney's a great name for him
All the moggies I've ever had over the years have been rescues, often directly by myself, so I've never given money for one, I've no idea what is the "cash value" of a cat.
Priceless really..

"Hissing Sid" it started off as. Before he could miaow, he'd hiss at anyone looking in the lawnmower box that was home to the pub cat and her siblings.
One of the other kittens, the new owner called it Ginge. The foreign vet has put it down as "Hinge".
They'll have to get another one and call it "Bracket"

We usually get the RSPCA rescue cats...some have quite a bit of character to say the least.
Taking a break at the moment...does get expensive with an elderly cat on meds etc but they give back a lot too I think
