If they *did* get a cat at Holyrood would it be a Scottish fold? Jill |

I don't think Scottish Folds actually come from Scotland - I've never seen one. It would make sense to turn the Parly into a nature reserve for Scottish wildcats. Never mind mice, they'd also be be pretty good at culling unfit MSPs. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- e m a i l : j a c k @ c a m p i n . m e . u k Jack Campin, 11 Third Street, Newtongrange, Midlothian EH22 4PU, Scotland mobile 07800 739 557 http://www.campin.me.uk Twitter: JackCampin |

I don't think Scottish Folds actually come from Scotland - I've never seen one. I've never eaten haggis but that doesn't mean it's not from Scotland. LOL I love the looks of the Scottish Fold so I've read a bit about them. Yes, they originated in Scotland. It would be fitting, but then any good mouser cat would be. Persia wouldn't know what to do with a mouse. Shortly after she came to live with me she was walking into the kitchen. She stopped, refused to go any further. There was a dead mouse on the floor. (I gather it died from natural causes.) She refused to enter the kitchen until I had disposed of it. Even if someone hadn't (cruelly) declawed her, being a mouser wouldn't have been on her curriculum vitae. Jill |

He was the terror of the neighborhood when it came to other cats and most dogs, including many larger than he was. One day I saw a mouse in the kitchen, so I called to my husband to bring Tawny. He set Tawny down in the kitchen, the mouse ran across the floor, and Tawny promptly ran out of the room. Joy |

She was afraid of dogs - all dogs, including my neighbor's 6-inch long mini-Chihuahua. The dog was old and frail, but Smudge would hiss and give her a wide berth. But when a raccoon was walking down the street one evening, Smudge was interested, and looked like she was going to go over and meet the new neighbor. I didn't wait to see what would happen - I swiped her up and took her inside. -- Joyce "Sentimentality" -- that's what we call the sentiment we don't share. -- Graham Greene |
