Welcome Back Marina! You know that web page of Nikki purring? I put it
on my desk top. When I'm playing windows media player I usually put it
on random. Every so often I'll hear two minutes of smile making purrs.
Thank you for letting her purr file be placed on the web.


Aww, thanks, Pam. I'm so glad her purring can lighten up your day.


Am eager to read about all the adventures on the island and how Caliban
and Miranda did. I bet they had a great time.


They did! I'm posting a few stories I wrote out there, and I hope to
write some more soon.

Thanks, Helen! I thought the little burst of blue flowers gave a nice
touch to that one.

Welcome back! Great pics there! Would love to have an island like that
to go to in the summer, have always loved the sea and cliffs.

And just for the record, I haven't forgotten about SMS'ing you, but
there haven't been any more news about that matter to send you. So
everyone's still waiting.

We're back! The cats are exhausted from the trip and have been sleeping
for hours (after they'd checked that everything was in its place here at
home). I'm pretty knackered myself, but here are some pictures to start
with. I'll write more about our time on the island after I've had some
sleep.

Wonderful photos Marina, it looks like you all had a very peaceful and
relaxing time! Linus is a handsome fellow. Particularly liked the rock
greebling and 'washing' pics :-)

Welcome back! Wow, time flies, it seems like you just left! Anyway,
great pics! I love the bag
cats one, how sweet! And Emil is definitely a lot heftier than Miranda,
isn't he?

Thanks, Christine! I wasn't expecting more messages than the one you did
send.

Heh, yeah, a *lot* fluffier. Though I think Miranda has developed some
more muscle on the island this summer, she is just as svelte as before.

Grrr. *I* didn't feed him any more than usual. In fact, when we left for
the island, I was hoping that he would lose a little weight on the
island, what with getting more exercise. Haha! Caliban proved to be an
absolutely shameless food smooch. He would go into the other houses and
eat the other cats' food virtually under their noses. Kasper and Emil
just let him do it, but if Linus or Ronja caught him eating *their*
food, they chased Caliban off *their* property. But I blame the hoomins,
too. They all said they would chase Caliban away if they saw him at one
of their food bowls, but knowing Caliban, and having seen how he charmed
everyone, I suspect they let him eat some before they chased him off.
Caliban even went into my brother's tent to see if he could mooch some
food there!

I considered changing his name to Bandit. It morphed into Calibandido.
