The official Christmas Cat has already made its appearance in the Season’s Greetings email and on the home page of this site. This year we were inspired by the classic song „Santa Baby“ which has been on the playlist of our favourite radio station in...

Only three more days to Christmas! High time to ge the tree in place. As usual Islay insists on chosing the decorations, Marvi watches with interest and Issi is only interested in the ladder… ———– In zwei Tagen ist Heiligabend! Höchste...

First be warned that today’s Monday riddle has no solution. It is in fact more like a mystery and your guess is as good as mine – or even better! I am talking about the above plate. It is made of sturdy melamine and for years it had been an important part...

I am so relieved! Yesterday Islay had his second echocardiography and everything is fine. 🙂 As you recall, after Ice-B’s death I had him and Isfrid scanned and his results were sort of borderline. That is why the vet advised to monitor him more closely which in...

Now we have an alternative for the unpopular collar! The teddy arrived on Saturday. I ordered two sizes. I did not even have to put the smaller one on to see that it would not work but the larger one is exactly right. The brand is the same as Paulina’s but there...

This time the riddle was too easy bacause you were all right: Jaspar is in his digs! ————– Dieses Mal war das Rätsel zu einfach, denn ihr habt alle Recht: Jaspar ist in seiner Bude! LG Sybilla

I am not quite sure whether the Monday Morning Riddle should become a permanent fixture but at least I have got another riddle for you today. This one is easier than last week’s. It is once again about the occupants of our little huts. As you can see, Maxine is...

…fools seldom differ. Today I have a picture story for you. The main characters are Joschi and Marvi with Joschi being in the lead for once. PS: Mrs. Peel still has to wear her collar as the teddies the best husband fetched in a hurry did not fit – size S...

There was no problem when Patricia, YumYum, Mira, Marvi and Isfrid were neutered. Marvi’s big diaphragm operation left a huge suture and when Jaspar’s abcess was cut open he also needed a couple of stitches. None of the cats touched their wounds. When I...

My apologies! I had only mentioned it in the PS in the German version: Mrs. Peel and Sander were neutered yesterday. The operation went well and you can observe them today leaving the „hospital ward“ (aka the puppy pen), sniffing their blankets (incl....

Mrs. Peel! Even though I have not published as many blogs as last year, you have nominated more photos than ever. And another first, you had a clear favourite that beat the rest by miles: Little Mrs. Peel frolicking through the garden obviously struck a chord. And she...

Thank you for participating! Karl-Theodor was closest. Only the downstairs left one has an occupant: Jaspar! But have you noticed? I turned the right one around. It is now inhabited by Maxine – just not at the moment I took the picture. Have a nice evening!...

How about a little riddle to start the week off? Have a look at the above picture. Is none, one or are both of the cat houses occupied? The solution will follow this evening. 🙂 ————– Wie wäre es mit einem kleinen Rätsel zum Wochenstart?...

I have sad news for you today. The team and I mourn the death of our dear friend Medi. Yesterday, Alexander and Susette could not bear her suffering any longer and helped her crossing the rainbow bridge. She is now with her old pal Luther who will be glad to have his...

Have you opened the first door of your advent calendar yet? As the countdown to Christmas has seriously started, now is the time for sharing love, peace and happiness. The best husband of all sometimes wonders whether Marvi is a happy cat that enjoys life as much as...

Oops, I did it again 😉 My apologies for dissappearing from the face of the cyber world despite my good intentions. This time I had some pretty good reasons: Jaspar had a mild case of pancreatitis and spent a week in our infirmary (aka the cellar storeroom). The best...

It is always hard for parents to realise that their child may be the cutest and friendlist but not the most intelligent. While Mrs. Peel has learned that beeches are no good for climbing and how to get down relatively safely, Sander seems to be immune to experience....

Some people think that autumn is the prettiest time of the year. Being a spring person myself, I cannot agree but I sure can understand why. It is definitely the season with the most interesting plant life. While some plants are wilting away gracefully, others, like...

Please don’t expect too much from this jubilee edition – apart from many new pictures! Naturally I could not include 500 photos but at least one from every team member. It pains me to see that Ginger and Ice-B are missing from this line-up but as I have...
