Is this a sign of getting old?

**Chalkie** · 9 March 2009, 7:31 am

Whilst stretching my legs around my apartment for a break from the grind that is the keyboard i am typing this on, i noticed the local stray moggie on my balcony. Now my balcony is some 100 feet long and 40 wide, so quite spacious, but the moggie was sat on a sun lounger by the french doors.

In glee, thinking i had a pal to while away the spare minutes of my day i ran the length of my apartment to collect a couple of saucers. One i filled with best salmon, the other with full cream milk and then steadily made my way back to the door!

As i got to the door the stupid moggie was just departing over the edge in escape. Whilst slowly edging out of the door and making funny noises like here puss puss puss the cat disappeared, i tripped over the threshold throwing 2 saucers, milk and salmon in the air and ended up needing a shower to remove the salmon and milk mixture from my hair.

Now, the question is, does the fact that i want to befriend the local neighbourhood stray cat mean i am getting old? Will i end up with 27 cats on my balcony anytime in the near future and get dragged away screaming to the old codgers home?

The first thing i thought was; "what's a moggie? Some new name for the local hooker?"

So, a moggie is a cat! Well, if you don't scrub the salmon odor out of the balcony floor, you will have at least a couple dozen moggies lounging on your furniture. LOL

If they take you away screaming "I love my moggies", we'll make sure someone feeds the little fur balls in your absence. Just watch out for the jacket with those really long sleeves

No your not getting old!! LOL your so funny!

I befriended 2 homeless mommy cats over a year ago in the winter here. They were like kittens.

I had 4 cats, and decided to take them in.

However each of these mom cats had 4 each in a matter of a month.

Plus 2-3 more came knocking.. so at one time i had 16 i looked after.

One went MIA!

4 i found homes for..

one we had to put to sleep!!

So now we have 10.

6 are directly with me at all times!!

However i decidd to not allow anymore in my home!!

But i did build 2 cat houses this winter, so the ones left out in the cold could find shelter.

take car of the moggies!! They need love too!!!

Personally it makes me feel young!

I love moggiess!! (cats) LOL

LOL too funny Chalkie. I didn't know what a moggie was either.

I don't think you're getting old. Just to much keyboard time with too few diversions.

I love watching birds so I put up some bird feeders. Now I spend my time chasing off the squirrels in an Elmer Fudd-wascally wabbit sense. The squirrels are winning.

When you SLEEP with the cats in your bed, and you take naps, THEN worry

**Renee** · 9 March 2009, 9:03 pm

**wagerprofits** · 9 March 2009, 9:22 pm

Shaun

You buy your 4 year old daughter Hello Kitty?

I don't think we can be friends anymore mate.

And who said the easter bunny, tooth fairy and santa are a load of BS? Noone said anything about them, just Hello Kitty.

In all seriousness, as long as Hello Kitty is not on a guitar or any other musical instrument, I do not care.

**Chalkie** · 10 March 2009, 10:13 am

Erm ... am i missing something here?

Who is Kitty?

Oh no, now i am singing the Chubby Brown version of smokies alice only alice is now kitty.

**wagerprofits** · 10 March 2009, 10:41 am

No way I try very hard not to allow that crap into the house but in Costa Rica they seem to be obsessed with Hello Kitty and Pucca so when ever she goes to parties she come back with bags full of crap so sh always sneaks some of it into the house.....

Presenting... Hello Kitty:

So we have a new version of Smokie's Alice called Chalkie's Kitty...

I think I could make up some words to that you know..
Stay tuned!

**bb1web** · 11 March 2009, 6:07 am

Chalk, I have bad news for us both

Erm ... am i missing something here?

Who is Kitty?

didn't know either.

I think THAT .. perhaps more than the other ...show's we're getting old.

At first i thought it was a culture thing but since then I've noticed that kitty here in the states.

That leaves 2 choices if its not culture. Either we both been under a rock (apparently not the same) or we're both getting old (unfortunately the same lol)

I suggest a young attractive companion for us each to help bring us back up to speed.

In my case I'll need donations since my quest for one at no cost has been failing miserably.
