That brought a smile to my face. I still remember the 'rook 'n' raspberry ripple' from the same sketch. biggrin.gif

i eat duck but that doesnt stop me from thinking there realy cute (so much cuter than puppies and kittens but nowhere near as cute as my two pet snakes)
sarah-flute
Hmmm, I don't think snakes being cute is a widespread opinion...

Duck is very tasty wink.gif but I generally wouldn't buy a duck (to eat) unless I knew it had been looked after properly: for one out of concern for the animal's welfare, and secondly because I know it won't be as good....

(sorry, duck lovers.... ohmy.gif)

contick87546
actualy theres loads of snake lovers were everywhere i wont post pics of baby snakes due to any problems with phobias though

Thanks contick! I'd be the first to leave the cafe at great speed on seeing snakes and spiders!

YAP's kitten is soooo cute.
sarah-flute
Contick: I've no doubt there are many snake lovers, but it's not as common a "aww that's cute" reaction as with kittens/puppies/ducklings methinks!

Yes, it's a remarkably cute kitten, have been known to check out YAP's profile just to go "awwwwwww" laugh.gif yes, I really like cats...(and I need to get out more... ph34r.gif) biggrin.gif AP also has a cute cat in hers... I have a kitten in mine but it's slightly more surreal.... - there are a few cute cats in profile pics actually!! smile.gif

Cats are almost as cute, my cat is grown up now but she's still cute smile.gif.

ph34r.gif ph34r.gif ph34r.gif Thanks for not putting them up!! We don't want a repeat of that other thread (the urgh one?)
sarah-flute
Awww, AP your cat's so pretty! biggrin.gif
sarah-flute
I should add, I've seen her before, just didn't realise/wasn't sure that was *your* cat and not just a random cute cat! blink.gif smile.gif
Puff cat
Awww......Another Pianist you have the cutest cat! Well, actually no you don't, I do! tongue.gif How could I post a photo of her? But your cat is very cute! smile.gif
sarah-flute
Digital photo or scan one in, then upload it to www.photobucket.com then copy the [IMG] link onto here. You do need a digital camera or scanner though!
Puff cat
Thanks, Sarah. Let's see if this works....

Oh, that's a very very nice cat smile.gif smile.gif.

You could probably sell that to a birthday card company, it's just the sort of picture they'd have.... Just looking at the cat and music cards I received for my birthday, this company made one of them and this company made the other.

Here's a photo of AP's cat when she was little, about six months old (the cat, not AP):

If forced to choose its got to be ducklings. But everything comes second to piglets!

Yes, I agree! Ducklings, baby chicks, puppies, kittens, all very nice (not at all sure about the baby snakes or spiders ohmy.gif ) but PIGLETS - WOW!!!!!

(When I was pregnant, my growing embryo was always called "piglet". Strange when he was born, he never had that name....... laugh.gif )

Take care all

LOL

Seriously go to a farm and see piglets ..... no competition, the cutest young of any mammal, anywhere..... They have the sharpest teeth though, so be greatful that when your son was born he didn't have a piglets teeth!!!

As for ducklings, their sole role in life, IMHO, is to grow up to keep me in a healthy supply of Aromatic Crispy Duck smile.gif

Cats aren't horrible! huh.gif

The ginger and white one is Peach, the ginger one, Apricot.

This is Mango
sarah-flute
Awwww some adorable moggets biggrin.gif
YetAnotherPianist
Aww, Apricot justs wants stroking on the top of the head, doesn't he/she.

Nicki - do you have three cats? I was aspiring to having two, but I might get jealous now wink.gif.
sarah-flute
I'm already jealous - they're adorable. I just want to give Mango a big cuddle! Always thought grey's a cute colour for cats (the others are beautiful too)

If I was feeling brave enough, I'd put my sleeve over my arm and tickle Mango's tummy - the sleeve providing protection from the inevitable savaging that would result from the rear legs biggrin.gif.

You do know it's only a picture, don't you?? blink.gif wink.gif

laugh.gif

Years ago my family had a cat who wouldn't mind if you did that... he was a great softy... looked a bit like *checks* Apricot... you could pick him up, turn him on his back and tickle his tummy, lie him across your lap, do whatever, he wouldn't care. Nicest cat ever in the whole world smile.gif

Yes smile.gif That is my viola and my kitty. Another clue is that it says viola at the top of one of the pieces of music wink.gif

If you've already got photos in a file on your computer, do you still have to go through this photobucket thingy or is there another way to post them up here?

Yes, indeed, they're all mine, so I have 3 cats. Peach and Apricot(female) are sisters, and Mango (male) was a stray who adopted us!

As he is a stray, you probably would need the protection!

Sarah - aren't you allergic to cats?
sarah-flute
Some cats, not others, ranging from if I pet them they irritate my eczema and make me cough if I spend much time round them to they don't have any affect on me at all rolleyes.gif

However, I like them far too much not to stroke them anyway.

Your cats are gorgeous, I'm so envious! smile.gif
nicki_flute
Aww, well I hope you wouldn't be allergic to them if you ever met them!
sarah-flute
It wouldn't stop me talking to them! I hope I do meet them one day, they look like gorgeous cats (and it'd probably also mean I got to meet you too!! wink.gif biggrin.gif)
