Has Arwen taken up a sketch pad in her spare time Ed?  (Not that I am saying that she looks like that cat!)

That's funny FTY!!  The cat in the comic looks like its head caught on fire or something!  Check out the thread where Arwen's Christmas pictures were posted by Roz. I sent her a better one of Arwen and she put it up!

Awwwwwwwwww.......  That's one adorable photo! I want to take a plane over to New Hampshire to give her a cuddle! But I know she wouldn't like that as she does not like strangers  So I will settle to cooing over a photo instead

Hi FTY: No problem with Arwen and strangers now! As a matter of fact she is so very friendly to everyone who comes into the house or to the door! She comes right up to people and wants to be petted! I think she feels safe and finally at home to have such a reversal of attitudes.

That's fantastic! It would have taken a lot of time and loving care to help her to trust people again after all that she had been through, well done to you  I will be more than willing to pet her if I met her, Arwen is adorable! (I have a soft spot for cats  )

Hi FTY:
Do you or have you had any pets? What kind of pets are popular in Australia?

Next year I am going to make FTY MY secret Santa and then sit by the door waiting for the arrival of a baby Kangaroo for my next pet (in fact my first and only ever pet!)

In Australia the popular pets are.....dogs....and erm....cats!! Birds too for some people. You do not see us with a Kangaroo or Koala as our pets, they are Australian Native animals and prefer to stay in the wild..plus koalas have sharp claws and kangaroos kick, and they would bounce over the back fence....hehe. I have a cute white fluffy dog..a maltese terrier named Blossom

Brilliant Snape.... once again you've put your keen and penetrating mind to the task and as usual come to the wrong conclusion!!

I do not have a pet, and I agree with Trey, roos and koalas do NOT make good pets, so I am afraid Roz will be disappointed  Despite that Simpsons episode set in Australia where BArt and Homer attempted to climb in a couple of kangaroos' pouches and escape. Thats a bone that I want to pick with you guys, those accents in that episode were shocking  (Actually, the image of a kangaroo bounding around Cambridge kicking professors and alumni greatly amuses me... maybe you'll see that roo next year, after all  )

Hi Mark: Thanks for clearing that up as I thought Bucky's head got roasted!!  He does now that you mention it look like a Siamese!! FTY: Now that would be a funny site to see as well but to be fair you would also have to send a Roo to Oxford so they too can share in the professor and alumni butt kicking!!

Hey Jo: If Crocodile Dundee is available you better send him along to clean up and bring home the Roo's after they are finished!!

I think 'roos are a bit tame for ol' Mick after he's dealt with crocs and even lions (if my memory serves me correctly from the latest cash-in)... but then I hear the've got a mean punch on them
