I feel quite teary now, Gypsy! What a beautiful and loving film...and what a beautiful and loving pusser. If I didn't live on a boat, I'd want a Charley too. Hoping you had a truly special day on the 19th. Hugs and huddles, Vallypee xxxx

Now I know where Tnu comes from...save the wobbly-pants.
She'd rather I'd plop her in place beside me than decide for herself. And her best friend is 15-year old Smoke, who hates other cats - and loves Tnu.

Honestly, I've always wondered what was different about her....

She would also cat scream, dig her claws into me, and grab the door jams when I'd try to put her outside last winter.

Just ask Lesley!

Vallypee, I know what you mean, it makes you want to cry, but it's up lifting at the same time, you just want to love him more!..

Dale, I do believe that cats have physical and mental problems like humans, every cat has a different personallity. We had a cat caled Merlin, i'm sure he had tourette's!, he would be all loving and playful, then for no reason attack you!, I couldn't get him in the cat basket when i moved, so he stayed at the old house with Chantal..
We didn't get a Charley, Baby and Alfie do a good impression though, we would love a Charley though because you just want to care for them more!..
Thank you Stevie, we all love you too, and a Charley would be lucky to have someone like you..

Thank you for the birthday wishes Vallly and Dale, I let it slip by as quiet as i possibly could
;0)..xx

BTW-The decision to leave Merlin wasn't easy..
Chants and I had raised him from a tiny troubled little kitty, he'd been abused by the previous owner, kicked in the head, hence his problems which i meant to say were ADHD not Tourettes because of course cats don't swear, well, not in our language anyway..
He developed ear problems a couple of years back and when treated the vet found brain tumours..he has had them removed, plus his eardrum on oneside completely removed..having only ever lived in that house at Oakland, the move was proving far too traumatic for him as he was under going treatment at the time, Chants and Darren take very good care of him and he is quite a happy cat these days :0)

Hi Gypsy,
Belated birthday wishes, my dear! Beautiful film. I always think the mind works like a parachute- it needs to be opened. Thanks for helping to do that.

I couldn't figure out how to attach a clip from Youtube here. George Carlin was famous for the seven words you can't say on TV.
I thought you might get a chuckle.
go to Youtube, George Carlin Seven Words should bring it up.

You had a special day on 19 June?

Um, Charley you may know means a heap to the b-monks. Cats know All.

To make up for not even knowing about your special day, I am spending this 29 June reclining exceptionally well. So well, and in your honor, I will take this finest repose to the water. And on my back I shall remain!

I remember you speaking of Merlin. At least he was left with family and a good (same) home.

I had to leave our Scat at the house after I left last September. I brought him up here several times, but he always found his way back to George's. We're only up the hill, so it's not that far away.

And it's true, Gypsy. Just like us, animals can be born with a huge range of congenital defects.
Did I ever mention our wee albino guinea pig, Thomasina, who was, quite literally, deaf, dumb and blind? I'm sure she had many other problems, as well, and she died very young (with Henrietta by her side).

LOL Val! Poor Charley wouldn't last very long on your barge!
But, then again, he might...apparently, he was born with sea legs.

Good point Dale! Maybe he'd be alright after all with that jaunty swagger!

By the way, Gypsy, it's Koos's 60th today!!! We're having a big party for him at the weekend, but you know what...he doesn't look a day older ;-)

Awe-shucks..thank you Annemarie..x..

Thanks Gracie, i'll av a butchers o that..x..

Why Gina, i'm honoured,and I bet that you reclined so well..

Dale, I don't think you mentioned your albino pig!..Ahh, she sounded so special, bless her..
Scat scoot back!..

If Charley was on the bargie, he would definitely rock the boat!..

Val, I scooted over to Koos's as fast as lightning to get his birthday greeting in time-I tells ya, am worn out after that!!..

Hi Gypsy,

thnx for your well wishes, I loved the 'and your little dogs too'...a little Wizard of Oz reference?
(or just me reading it that way? :) )

Especially well!

But I want Charley and guess what?

No viewing him no more.

I can cry and recline.

Celebrations of indepence explode bravado outside all my windows this juli 4-5 wee damn hours. Beabs heart flopped out of her gob at least twice! Could you please send the vessel? I'm begging: SOS.

Oh hell the vid's no longer available! I've missed so much. I tried to put together an idea of what was up there from all the comments, and I thing I get the gist. Special.

Speaking of which , great - I missed another birthday. i am rubbish. Hope it was a good day with much decadence, which is the only reason I can see to have birthdays anyway.

I'm glad you liked the pink caravan. It was sooo perfect. Original in every respect, too, as I'm pretty sure it hadn't actually been used - a display model or prototype I think. And the vintage interior! Oooohhhhh I wanted it so badly ...

Hey, Charley's back! What a gorgeous film - I did a real double take seeing him at first - he's the image of my Sadie, although perhaps Charley's stripes are a bit more prominent. Now I've seen the film, I cracked up at the though of him on Val's barge. She'd have to put him on a permanent lifeline, and maybe get a little life vest happening. I have a very warped sense of humour I'm afraid.

I think he's a babe - why on earth would anyone want to destroy a cat like that?

Lol at Dale. Her cat Tnu is as spunky as Charley - that is true.

Charley is a wonderful cat with all the spunk of any other cat. Thanks for posting this film.
