Felines - cats

Going by my profile photo I am sure you can work out I am an evid fan of felines.  I currently own one little guy who just turned two years old.  With some of his personality traits, he reminds me about one cat I owned during my high school years.

As long as I can remember growing up, there was always a feline in the house. I must of had my belated Nanna's gene because she loved cats too!  She practically had a farm full of all ages at her old home address.  I think my eldest child might have the same gene as she seems to enjoy being around cats.  She told she would love to own a purebreed once she grows up.

All the years I have lived on this planet I have owned six felines.  All have been moggies (that is what the Australians called them.  It means these cats aren't a purebreed from a particular one breeder). Most of them lived until they turned 10 years old.  Majority of the time they were outdoor felines but they were trained to come indoors at sunset.  Only had two females and all the rest were males. The difference of behaviour with these genders is that the males aren't so affection as the female.  The male cat seem to be more the independant one and only comes to you when they need you for food and a quick hug. 

There is one male cat I had the opportunity to know for half of my life. This cat is almost two decades old and just starting to decline in its health now. Of course I am still in contact with the owner of this moggy and it will be a heartbreak when the sad news come to say this old cat went to its rainbow bridge.

How well do you know about felines??  If you don't know much about this independent mammals, here's a website link for you to view some interesting information: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cat  From the basics, breeds, history and about their health is there for you to enjoy reading.

By the way I love movies and TV advertisements that shows felines too!  My favourite TV advertisment would have to be where you see workers adding cat toys on the telegraph poles in one street and see a couple of cats playing with the new toys.  

The closure of the advertisment: "one day the world will be cat lovers". 

Amen!  (my meaning I agree) Well... I would like to see some countries love cats!  From what I heard I won't be sending my cat there for a meal ticket.
