Lew & Me

[TimFitz]

Here is my cat "Lew" helping me adjust a pocket watch and adding  a hair to places one should never be.

I can sympathize with that cat hairs have stopped a few movements I've worked on

[TimFitz]

How can I get angry at a cute guy like him!

[oldhippy]

How lovely. I have two cats, which are brother and sister. The male is called Crumble and the female is called Cookie.

[clockboy]

I have two male cats named Charley & Dexter. Charley is a mouser and very rarely stays in doors but Dexter is more of  homely cat. Very often he sits on my lap while I am stripping a watch or clock. However he is not allowed in my workshop when cleaning and assembling because them cat hairs are a bloody nuisance.

My cat knows its not allowed on the bench top, but she jumps up there anyhow, but always jumps up on the far side of the bench away from me so I have to get up and walk over  to her and pick her up and carry her to somewhere else/

I'm sure she thinks it is a game.

I make my living as an Artist (as you can see by my question on watch repair "amateur") and my cats love to jump up on my painting table. This is "Three" she got in my Cadmium Red.

I think we should start a thread dedicated to Horologists and their cats [emoji3]

This is George. He doesn’t just do watches. Here he’s helping me update the operating system on an iPhone.

What a beautiful Cat

[oldhippy]

Here are my two. They will both be 20 in September. I love them to bits. The long hair is Cookie a she cat and her brother Crumble both from the same litter.

We have two, in fact we have always had cats that always live to a ripe old ages. Very often I have one sitting on my lap when dis- assembling and the other under the workbench in the winter where there is a radiator. However they are not allowed when assembling them bl**dy hairs get everywhere.

We have 30 cats so I must be gaining half an hour every minute!

Mind I don’t love all of them all of the time. Worming tablets usually involve some blood loss on my part!

 Do they have names or numbers.

Whoa! A whole colony! 

They stay inside or outside or both?
