I want to be a national symbol


What is more beautiful than a British cat, like me. With the wide British face and beautiful soft fur. Purrlease, believe me, I would make a great modern symbol for the UK.

 So why not....

The Siamese, with its slanty face and thin body (not well muscled like me) has become a national symbol for Thailand. It's official recognition from the Government.

I mean just compare the two of us.

She is a nice colour, I admit. But her face is triangular without proper cheeks and her nose is sort of pointed. Unlike the symmetry of my nose in the slightly flat face.

So, Prime Minister Starmer, when are you going to recognise the British cat, a pedigree breed already popular with cat owners.

We are British already. Now we want to be officially recognised as true Brits.  

For once, Mr Starmer, do something that will make our humans cheer for you.

  1. Yes, you are absolutely right, George! Mr. Starmer better do something about this issue! He didn't even recognize Larry for his help with greeting foreign demnitaries, or the fact that Larry is checking the surroundings everyday and push back at paparazzi! Larry should get a Medal of Honor and British sorthair definitely should be officially recognized as the national symbol!

Help for cats whose humans show behaviour problems.

This blog is devoted to the study of human behaviour. We cats, who live with this sometimes unpredictable and always feeble minded species, can benefit from seeing their behaviour in its proper scientific context. The study of feline dilemmas, training problems, and difficulties with humans, can only benefit all of us. All of us train our humans - to buy the right food, for instance, but many of us do not have knowledge of how to improve our training methods. The human species is obviously not as intelligent as the cat, but nevertheless can learn quite a lot - if properly managed. Topics of interest include the use of claw and order, purring as a human reward, rubbing your human up the right way, when to bite, spraying as a method of making our wishes known, ignoring the human, human harassment, human inattention and sheer human stupidity. I welcome your questions. Photos can be sent via my secretary's website, www.celiahaddon.com This blog has been chosen as one of the top 50 feline blogs by Online VetTechprogramms.org
