Sheilaz Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 .........and stroked all the cats.... My, you did get carried away! That's great that you've had a proper look & that things are moving along, I'm so pleased. Must seem more real now that you've looked in more detail & discussed equipment etc. Watched Relocation too.... slap! I don't like the ones where they want to buy 2 places & commute a 100 miles, it's much more fun when they are desperate to fall in love with a house and follow their dream. As you have done! Remind us to watch week after next; I'm so glad that you had that feeling & acted so quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Frugal Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 Lesley it's all getting SOOOOO exciting!! Have you got room for a small family of 4 + 3 chickens to come and move in ? We're all hard workers (apart from Clarry!) ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louise Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 Ooooooooooooooh I love Relocation Can't wait. I wanted to slap both of them because fancy moving to a very flat part of the country and expect to NEVER hear traffic. In fact imagine moving anywhere in the UK and expect to hear no traffic You might change your mind about a cat once you have to keep baiting traps around barns *ducks and runs for cover* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 If you have a mouse problem, I can always bring Georgie up to visit; she's a champion mouser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popcorn Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 Oh yes Louise - I had a present bought to me last night by our cat whilst I was tucked up in bed. I just need to train her to keep the things outside, or even put them in the bin when she has finished playing with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louise Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 I usually only find the bits they don't like to eat on the carpet if I am unlucky I find them with my feet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 I know that one! I went racing down the stairs one morning when the dog was still alive, only to step (with bare feet) in a pile of dog sick!!!!!!! Even after scrubbing my feet I still thought I could smell it.

soufflé Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 We don't get that problem 'cos our cats eat the lot - just crunch mice up into bits. But they can't manage a whole rabbit - we sometimes find a pair of ears and the innards on the back doorstep - yuk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 Fancy just leaving you the ears - can't make a stew out of that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louise Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 It is usually the stomach of mice mine leave the gall bladder must make it bitter and rats don't have one so that all disappears. One of mine eats rabbits the whole lot and then usually brings it all back up on the carpet Wondeful subject this what topic are we on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lesley Posted February 10, 2006 Author Share Posted February 10, 2006 You're quite right I don't Actually - I did realise that we would need a farm cat and hoped they would leave one but for some reason they are going to take them all to the vet They must know the real me I've got a bigger problem though - I'll post a separate topic - you'll know it when you see it.
