Are They Not Sweet?
"The question about pets is very good for me - because at home we have rather a lew cats. We've got nine cats altogether and that's quite a lot for one little house. They're very sweet. They are all pedigree. And we have one male cat who lives outside. He has a special electrically heated house, he lives outside and female cats come in. It's good with the cats because they have a lot of kittens. They are pedigree Siamese mill Orientals, and they have lots of kittens. The kittens are very cute. They smuggle up in your bed. They purr a lot and they are very sweet. When they are running around sou tan fight with them.
I like to grab hold of your arm, try and scratch you, bite you. But because they are little, they don't really hurt very much. You can always pick them up, and then they are really frightened, because you are so much bigger than they are. They all have lots of different miaows. Each has its own personality, each one is an individual. Altogether they make quite a motley bunch. It's very nice to watch them. I think they are great to relax with and mess around with. They're quite good little creatures.
