We love jigsaws!!! :)

[kilbarchancats]

Here are some pictures from the other night when I 'attempted' to get a bit further on with a jigsaw puzzle I have been doing for about a month or so. As you will see, this was not really for my own amusement, and the gang enjoyed and ably supervised the proceedings as follows: :D

'Okay, the lid's off the box....that's a good enough start I suppose:

'Candy, you're right. I'm gonna have to show them what to do. Okay, first off, you take a piece out of the box like so...'

That's all for now. Max, Candy and Tom hope you enjoyed sharing their fun! ;) :cool: :D

[Killearn Kitties]

Oh you are so lucky to have all these fabulous helpers! :D What clever cats they are.
Do you ever have all the pieces by the time you get to the end of a jigsaw?

[AlleyCat]

What fabulous photos -- and great captions to go with !!!! They looked like they were having a ton of fun :)

[momoffuzzyfaces]

LOL!!!! I'm surprised you got as much done as you have!!!

I love jigsaws too but with 4 furry "helpers" seldom get one done!

Great pics. Thanks for sharing them! :D

[momcat]

I'm a jigsaw puzzle lover though I haven't done one in quite some time. Those are some sharp kitty helpers always finding the right piece, and such extraordinary dexterity to handle all those small wierd shaped pieces! Good job there, kitties!!!!!

[Francyne]

Hello,

Your photos are real cute. My cat Tit-Noir loves boxes too.

I"m Francyne, (Matouroux) from Drummondville, Canada.

I'm planning to put a new page on my web site about longhair black cats.
I once wrote to you about Candy looking like my Tit-Noir. I received the photos of two other black cats looking just like ours.

I'm asking for your permission to put a picture of Candy on my web site. If you want, I would like to put his name, your first name, your city/country.

It's funny that your other cat looks very much like my sister's cat.

Sorry I still don't know how to put an image on this forum... :confused: I'm looking for a way to do it.

hi Francyne,

This is Candy speaking. I am a very happy girl that you have replied to me!

my meowmie says it would be fine for my pictures to be on your website. My meowmie's name is Laura.

We stay in kilbarchan, which is a small village in the west of scotland, about 15 miles from glasgow. Here is a picture we have taken only recently..

We all thank you for your replies. Jigsaw fun is the way to to GOOO!!!! They are not the most flavoursome snack perhaps, but very fibrous and calorie-free!!! :D :D

[kilbarchancats]

Do you ever have all the pieces by the time you get to the end of a jigsaw?


HEHEHEHEHHE Aunty Karen, you are quite the comedienne.....AS....IF!!!!!! :rolleyes: :cool: :p :D

[Francyne]

Here is Tit-Noir in the garden
Sorry if it is too big :confused:

I was curious about 'kilbarchancats' :) Now I understand. Don't you have snow in Scotland?

Here is my garden last month.

And a picture of it during summer...

I now live in the city but I use to live in the country. Your area looks nice...

Thank you for letting me use your photos. I will tell you when they are on my site.

I am french, english is my second language.

Here is a picture of Candy in our garden on 30th January last year....

AND, completely contrasting to that, here is a picture of our sunny (if cold) garden last week. Thanks to our neighbour, Dusty, for modelling this picture

Don't you just love the Scottish weather, eh? :D :D Predictable...NAAAHHHH - that'd be B.O.R.I.N.G!

[kilbarchancats]

PS: Tit-noir is such a simply stunning kitty. Sorry for my ignorance, but is that a kitty boy or a kitty miss - its not clear to me from the name....?? :eek: :confused: A stunner, in any event! :cool:

[Francyne]

Tit-Noir is a boy ( well he was..)

His name means Little black :D

I had a white cat who died last summer. His name was Tit-Blanc (little white)
Here's a picture of both of them:

If you need translation, tell me.

Here's Tit-Noir:

[kilbarchancats]

Firstly - Gina I would say WOOWWWWWWW!!! - Six days. I repeat ONLY SIX DAYS????? I am seriously impressed - your kitty helpers must be the best! I despair that I'll ever finish this puzzle, its soo hard, but I will persist with it - it was a catmas present after all from the furries!

Francyne,

Candy is honoured that you have taken the time and trouble to use her pictures and she would thank you very much for that! :D

[Pawsitive Thinking]

I could become addicted to jigsaws with such lovely helpers

[Francyne]

Hi Maya & Inka's mommy,

Zazou's picture is now with the other black cats:
Take a look: (Let me know if it's ok with you)
