For the cat people amongst us?.....it made me smile

Daisy - thank you; you are quite right, that is it.

I must pass on these to my two children who both have two cats and who are complete cat nuts.

Thanks, Phoenix

"Simons Cat" has been a favourite of mine for quite some time! There is an official website with all the films on. Just Google it and enjoy!

Being a control freak, I can't stand cats but thoses cartoons are brilliant

Oh that was funny, baubles! It looks just like our Daisy! She's white and fluffy and just as eloquent as 'Simon's cat'. Thank you for that!

GillieB I think this is what you are thinking of.

Long ago, my parents had a spooky Siamese cat named Tailoo. On an occasion when I was staying with the family, I noted that the grandfather clock had stopped. I mentioned this to my father. He asked, what time does it say? I think that it was around three o'clock [that would have been a.m.] Father said...that's Tailoo for you. Whenever he wants to go out in the early hours, he jumps on the bed and harasses me. If I neglect to do as he wants, he nudges against the door on the grandfather clock...it opens...he puts a paw in and stops the pendulum. Hard to believe that a cat would do such a thing...except Tailoo was no ordinary moggy.

I love cats, too, and I loved this. A few years ago I saw a cartoon video of a cat trying to wake up his owner - just so funny - and so like my cat. I wonder if I can find it again?

Loved it

Mr absent and I are supposed to be decorating the house but we have just wasted a huge amount of time looking at all the Simon's Cat cartoons. Thanks baubles

Brilliant, reminds me of my aunt's cat she used to jump up on the door handle and the door would swing back against the wall.

Baubles I'm rocking with laughter. Brilliant! THANK YOU

I love the Simon's Cat series - the cat always pointing to his mouth for food. We had a friend who had a large ginger tom. He slept all day at home, had his meal, went out for the night, came home . had a meal. This was his usual routine. However, one time he didn't come home for several days. So posters were put up, with a phone number, all over the area. Eventually someone rang to say the lost cat sounded very like their ginger cat. Except the cat had been injured, broken a leg and was confined to the house. Long story short. It was our friend's cat he'd been living a 'double life' for several years. The 2nd owners though he was a stray. So once he left house A, with a full stomach, he went to house B for the night, being fed again and slept the night, breakfast and off to house A. The two owners decided to keep the cat's way of life only reducing his food intake as he was getting quite fat.

Really charming, and spot on! Thank you, baubles.

One of our cats used to live next door-but-one too. He used to climb up their garage roof to their bedroom window, howl to be let in, howl to be let out of the bedroom, go out of the cat flap, climb up the garage roof etc etc!

That was a very talented, gentle cartoon animation. And yes, does remind me of most of the cats I have known.

Anno, my daughter once got stuck in the cat flap. She was about three and was following her beloved tabby. It took a lot of DIY to release her.

PS - I meant the cats, not the kids - they would have trouble with the cat flap.

I am going to visit my GC and grandcats this weekend and this is exactly what they did - demanded to be let in through the french window and then rushed round to the cat flap and did it all again - until I drew the curtains and ignored them. They got the message - eventually.

Wonderful!

I loved it. Reminded me so much of my lovely Spike who only came home to eat and be disdainful

I love it! It is so much like my cats behave. I have a cat flap in the front door but they always try the back first. The flap is for going out of immediately after being let in at the rear!
Thanks for the chuckle baubles.

Oh yes I liked that. That's just what cats do, when you finally open the door they hesitate before coming in.

Thanks, baubles, just choked on my cereal.
