Pink thinks everything becomes her. Some animals change colour to match their surroundings, but Pink’s surroundings change texture and hue according to her whim and fancy. In her youth she was abject and easy to upset. I found her once on the worktop in the utility room, crying because one of the local cats had been nasty to her. She slept on my pillow that night, and for many nights afterwards, and sometimes I think I may have given her too much confidence and paid her too much attention for her own good, because now it’s all so different and instead of being a shrinking violet she’s a little tyrant. In the old days even Bamber used to bully her a bit, because that’s what boys are like. Alleycat used to wonder if she could really be one of us (meaning one of the Ginge Club) and when she went out of doors we worried that she’d never come back – she was that weak and puny. But now the Ginge Club are all at her command and she’s their Queen and even Alleycat does her bidding and makes way for her. Her glass might have started off empty but it didn’t stay empty for long, and these days it only takes one look from her for her cup to fill up with her favourite liqueur just simply because she wills it so.
Even our kitchen is PINK!
And our glassware is PINK TOO!
Do cats rate chips? Bamber does. I gave him a chip on my fork and he lapped it up. I know I shouldn’t have done it, but I did. For the last month we’ve been in the throes of getting a new kitchen installed, and during the whole of that time we haven’t had water in the taps. Hence we’ve relied on processed food and home cooking has eaten dust. But Bamber loves rubbish food, he loves fatty chips, meat products laced with bad chemicals and oozy fatty liquors. And that’s what this episode has taught us. It’s also reminded us how stubborn he is. He refused to give up asking until he’d had his chips. He sat on the edge of my plate and demanded them until he was given.

Thanks for visiting Sam’s blog……as you can see, I’m a big fan of ginger cats! Love the photos of your gang. I’ve never seen if Sam likes chips but perhaps I’ll give it a go….he does have other favorites though like bacon and butter – not necessarily in that order!
Pam
Ginger cats are on top of the pile in our house for sure. Bacon and butter sounds like Bamber’s cup of tea.
I’m not sure which one of you is the naughtier
Bamber is definitely naughtier than most.
