# beware!!
Kittens don't stay cute for long, before you know it, they eat loads, bring in birds (and frogs) and generally scratch the place to bits...

Aren't cats great :)

# that's the bit I'm looking forward to
Hoping they can give the foxes in our garden a seeing to. Also have plenty of frogs for them to chew on...

# erm...if you've got foxes
in your garden, you'd don't want to be letting the kittys out at night...unless you give them some sort of protection, like a 50MW plasma rifle

# Concur
Foxes are smarter - faster - hungrier - 100% fact.

# I've had cats.
Five if I remember correctly and they may or may not have been of the Coon variety. They probably weren't but anyway one got run over, one disappeared, one died of oldness and now I just have two weird things left.

Cats are cats, they're all cats. Their temperament is usually down to how they were bought up in the first 6 weeks or something. More human contact = more human friendly when older.

That probably won't help but anyway, yes.

# My apologies
Didn't know there was a Fuzzbucket when I picked the handle - would have chosen else - but I name everything Fuzzbutt - so much easier.
