    Feline Job Opportunities

    Glenturret, Scotland's oldest working distillery, is currently interviewing nine candidates supplied by that well-known staff agency, Cats Protection.

    The successful candidate will be "outgoing enough to welcome our visitors from all over the world, and he or she should enjoy being the centre of attention and certainly not camera-shy. Mousing ability would be an advantage but is not essential".

    The BBC website has a little bio of the hopefuls.

    Situations Vacant

    The new cat will have a hard act to follow. Towser, the cat being replaced, earned a place in the Guiness Book of Records.

    Towser

    Wow, what a mouser that Towser was!!! 30,000????
    It's going to be hard to fill those kitty paws. Good luck to all the contenders and may the best paw win.

    Karen, could we visit that distillery when I'm over there next year??
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

    I had heard about Towser before. I will start to put little drops of Caol Ila in T's and F's food because single malt whisky obviously makes cats live for 24 years

    Tigris thought about applying for the job as he is more outgoing every year

    Dear Auntie Karen,

    My brother, Eddie, would very much like to be the distillery cat. Scotland is very far away from here isn't it?

    If you will send me an application I will fill it out for him and send it back. Maybe I'll just send him with it.

    Helpfully,

    Edwina

    Too bad Pichu didn't hear about the selection process from the very beginning - he loves to be the centre of attention and he is quite a hunter

    It's a date!

    Do you know, Barbara, when I searched on "Towser", the amount of German websites that came up was amazing. A German photographer was highlighted who has apparently interviewed more distillery cats than anyone else! Not sure how you do that, but still ...

    I didn't know that but some years ago we were searching a picture we wanted to publish in a Scotland travel guide and didn't find one.

    Edwina darling, how kind you are to send us your brother, in our hour of need. You are a selfless soul.

    He arrived this morning. I am just a little concerned that meowmie might be upset when she realises that Dartman has darted off again. Perhaps I should bring him back?

    I thought they had their own cat celib but this one may be too spoiled to be a mouser. He looks like he gets is meals on a silver tray. LOL

    Well I didn't think you would be a mouser. Unless it was served on a silver platter of course. LOL

    So who do you think they will get to replace Towser? Any nominees yet?
