A Dream Come True

Today I realised a lifelong ambition. Now I can die content - even if I never meet Vincent.



Even collecting a starburst crack on my windscreen on the way home could not dampen my happiness.

    So was the fur all soft and fluffy - and did you count your fingers when you left ;0)

    Now, if only you could 'stroke' Vincent huh??!

  2. I was surprised. I expected it to be quite coarse, but it was pretty soft, epecially the longer stuff round her neck.

    You'll notice in the video I pulled my hand away pretty quickly when she turned her head, so I left with all fingers and thumbs intact.

    As for stroking Vincent, wouldn't it be nice to make him purr?

  3. Lovely film. I prefer Tigers to Lions they seem to have more personality.

  10. What a sweet kitty! Surprised you didn't let her give you kisses! LOL. But then, I suppose scratching the beautiful beast is a lot safer. Still, I'll bet you were tempted.
