[QUOTE 4773938, member: 9609"]An update on the Swallows, they arrived back home on the 16th, there has been a few going in and out of the garage since then, then today I think two of them have paired up, there has been a lot of the usual high speed flying chasing each other, and they have also been sitting in the back of the garage singing each other swallow songs.
I don't think I am going to make a wildlife camera man but this is the pair of them. (i was crawling along the floor trying not to disturb them

Very chatty aren't they.

I think they all have that streak in them. Rather like beagles, among dogs.

We had a big masonry chimney on the auld house, and we had a flock of swifts that lived in it, year after year. My Dad always said that why we had less bugs, thanks to the swifts. Fastest flying bird around 60mph+Our swifts are back, saw them for the first time this year about an hour ago
Do you not like living?

Apparently not the fastest bird. The peregrine falcon comes it an number one, faster even than the cheetah, at 200 miles per hour when diving for its prey.

I hope you feel better soon.
I feel sorry for such cats. Mine like yours are part of my family for whom I would walk over fire for. Today Henry was helping me in the front garden. Several times he decided to pounce into the bushes as I was cutting them down. More than once he nearly got his nails clipped. I don't care what they look like, where they came from, they are mine
TimmyTheCat is a Red Burmese from a long line of bred Burmese. He's as daft a brush as timid as mouse and very cuddly. He's my mate.
We've just been to the cinema to see The Founder. It was advertised as showing in English but it was in German, so we left and got a refund.

The way you describe your cats, they sound like lovely pets, and good company, family almost. If someone is so centred on judging and/or winning, and they make insensitive comments, I would ignore them, politely of course.
Their logic is flawed, as not every cat can be winning prizes all the time.
I have two cats, Bob, about four years old. He could win prizes for being a nosey parker, and trying to tell everyone that he is hungry. Tasha is about nine years old, and could win prizes for exploring the field at the end of my garden, and also for glaring at, and frightening a Husky dog when she dares to walk past the end of the garden. They were both at the Cats' Protection League when they chose me.
