this charming little drama is still going on here, in my dignified old home-state of Connecticut.

Well, my psycho kedi ain't quite so prolific in her notoriety but she does climb walls and she does enjoy chewing people's arms. She is a slow learner.

''She is a slow learner.''

Typical Turk then.

Meeeow!

(She is a Bagdat cad kedi by birth, so it's even worse than you might think! At least she hasnt asked for a nose job or rich husband yet)

Perhaps she will marry into property like Baba Alex.

He's a he.

It's okay yaramaz, about the insane cat, I mean. The other night our old cat, Clyde, who died at 19, visited me in my dream, and the way I knew for sure it was him was because when I petted him he clamped down hard on my hand between the thumb and forefinger, and if I moved my hand he bit even harder. That's just the kind of guy he was but we loved him anyway.

I have two pedigreed, card carrying persians. D�k, the male has a tendancy to exhibit antisocial behavior towards children and strangers. He only allows my wife or I to comb him, and takes out his aggressions on the second hand furniture in the house or the small terrier downstairs. His smoky gray fur definitely reflects his personality. We seem to have problems differentiating who is the owner and who is the pet.
Şeker, his common-law wife is a fluffy "chinchilla" type Persian. We rescued her from the mitts of a rather clueless university student. She came to visit and we never gave her back. She's a lap cat preferring to chill with the kids and the nearest available human lap. Seker is also the only cat i've seen who seems to enjoy water. She's jumped in the shower with various family members, and can often be seen standing under and drinking from dripping faucets.
There are a few down sides to my two " People of Fur". The fur literally flies! They have to be combed regularly or I have enough fur on the floors to knit a small sweater. They're also finicky eaters. They HAVE TO HAVE Purina cat food... Whiskas makes them vomit.
Yaramaz, did I read someplace that your cats have their own bedroom? Well, my cats have their own living room... MINE!! There's nothing like coming home from work at 2230 and finding two furballs snoring on the sofa... as if they've had a hard day at the office. I'm just glad they haven't figured out the tv remote yet!!!

Yeah, Lola has the 3rd bedroom in my monstrously vast flat. Its the one with the light-well manzarasi! It barely fit a bed, and now it fits a cat box and a huge radius of cat litter spray! better there than anywhere I need to go!

Well Ruffle will be moving to Istanbul this fall. She has the habit of sitting on my lap when I am using the laptop and when she has had enough she bats me in the chops. I have a cat in Mexico who can climb chain link fence. I think the little darlings are sometimes too smart for their own good. Oh yes was talking to a women once who told me her cat can turn on the TV hadn't managed to change channels yet. Another cat I knew in Mexico would climb a tree to rescue her cat flat mate. You just had to ask her and up she would go.

Thanks all of you for the info on Istanbul that I have been reading hope it isn't too hard to find a place Ruffle and I can afford to rent. She is now in Baku living with her Tia waiting till I get back to this part of the world and come for her.
