Toots
(Preview)
It is a year today since I lost my beloved cat Toots. I would post a picture but I could never get her to pose and the only one I have wouldn't do her justice. She is staring malevolently at the picture taker. Imagine the Felix cat, with a paunch, and you'll know what she looked like! Toots came to me from the C...

Rosie's 3!
(Preview)
Well, tomorrow Rosie will be 3 years old! We've also had her for over a year now (picked her up on May 28th '06) which I can't beleive. Time has just gone so quickly! Since it is her first birthday with us, I made a video (on my phone so quality is quite poor) and thought I'd share it with you.
Happy Birthday...
