Our Precious is shedding, shedding ...Thanks Susan. Our Precious is shedding, shedding and still shedding right now. <br />I guess it's a little like trees. You have deciduous trees which do shed all their leaves and then the evergreen like our eucalypts and yet they too do shed leaves all year round but without the beautiful change of colour.<br />Savannah cat? Had thought of Siamese as we had two of them. Perhaps a double post....just for you.Mimsiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00249766510078357225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2704657209559170713.post-13246230746544591402013-12-16T10:17:13.081+08:002013-12-16T10:17:13.081+08:00Thanks EC.

We have a large dark pink patterned rug on the middle of our living room floor and each day it is covered with a patina (great word to describe it) of fine (very fine) white fur plus lumps of it throughout the house. Phil emptied our little upright vacuum the other day and it was nearly all cat fur. He often says if he saved all the fur we could make another cat.Mimsiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00249766510078357225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2704657209559170713.post-79083824236971903112013-12-16T10:13:56.199+08:002013-12-16T10:13:56.199+08:00Very pretty and a nice cat to go with it too.Very pretty and a nice cat to go with it too.Mimsiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00249766510078357225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2704657209559170713.post-22689543517420200962013-12-16T10:13:32.840+08:002013-12-16T10:13:32.840+08:00Hi Rick...lovely to meet you and thanks for droppi...Hi Rick...lovely to meet you and thanks for dropping by.

I always wanted a Silver Tabby though and finally, with <a href="http://inimaynaelcammeno.blogspot.co.uk/2013/03/monday-is-menosukhi-day.html" rel="nofollow">Jasper</a>, I got the feline love-of-my-life. I never knew a chinchilla per se, but did become acquainted with a couple of persians throughout the years. Very laid back dudes!<br /><br />Super post Mimsie and I agree, learning something every day is great fun!
