Hi everyone at the Fredcat residence. I am so sorry to hear of his passing, I confess to not visiting the site as often as I should have, but I did put a link to it on my own site at

http://www.g6urp.co.uk/other_links.htm#Cats :-)

I know so well what it's like to lose someone you love dearly, I am a volunteer at a local rescue shelter/adoption centre and I get very attached to some of the longer-stay residents, especially the older ones. Here are a couple of links to two of my all time favourites, Sheba and Catherine:

Hi there How lovely to read about the arrival of Frankie. I am sure that Fredcat would approve that his humans are being kept on their toes and not allowed to get slack! We have moved Fredcat from the Gorgeous Gingers page to the Rainbow Gingers page, where you will find him at http://rainbowgingers.blogspot.com. Hope you like the page. Best wishes      
Kate and Fat Eric, Jul 31 2007  

All our love and purrs for you and your wonderful, compassionate human! Thank you for being our friends. *hugs, love, and cheekrubs*

Dear Cathie and Mr.B, I have just discovered Fredcat's website and was moved to tears by his story. Please accept my sincerest condolences for the loss of your beloved Freddy. I know how hard this must be for you. I am still grieving the loss of my own ginger boy, Rascal, who died this last April. He was my dear companion for 16 years and I miss him terribly. He will always live on in my memory as, I am sure, Freddy will in yours. My thoughts are with you.       
Pam from New Jersey, Jul 31 2007  

Dear Cathie and MR. B, I just wanted you to know that I put a post up on my page in honor of Fredcat, I would like to put up a picture of him as well, if I may have your permission. My human (Annie) and I are very sad about Fred, but we think that Frankie would be happy to share his secrets about Fredcat and perhaps help to filll a hole that is in your hearts. We will continue to share your stories of Fredcat on my blog, and if Frankie comes to live with you we will share his stories also! http://daisy-the-dog.blogspot.com/2007/07/fred-cat-famous.html       
Daisy, Jul 31 2007  

Condolences and prayers to Fred's family.       
Tigger and Family, Jul 30 2007  

Cathie, Thank you so much for the email. Mom has gone to the website several times but hadn’t visited it yet today. We know from experience how the loss of your best friend can take what seems like an eternity to get over. Mom still thinks of Tiger, my brother and he has been gone many years. I am so happy you have met Frankie the Fearless. We kitties do communicate with each other. I hope if you bring him home he can help fill your emptiness. No one will replace Fredcat. We are thinking of you…. Sox

Dearest Freddikins I am so sorry to hear that you are not your usual self. It is a blow indeed. Hearing of your ailments cannot but help to put me in mind of the happy times we have shared. I am proud to say I am one of your adoring many but one of the few to have actually been in your august presence. It has been an honour to be allowed into your desmain and allowed to feed you a choice tit bit from time to time. I always felt protected by you, knowing you were on 24 hour alert, patrolling territory with your faithful acolytes, squirrels and raccons posted on the perimeters. Your friend in deeds and maybe the odd 'crime' or two, Snotty, sends a tail whisk and a purr. With best loves and chuckachins, I remain, your faithful servant, mx

Cole. B., The Zoo, Nashville, Tennessee, US, Jul 13 2007  

Dear Fredcat, Catster made an honest mistake in loosing my payment, but, I had the proof of the cashed check at the bank. They fixed all my pages and gave us 145 free zealies!! A mistake well worth it!! Mr. Vegemite is feeling so grand and healthy now that he is not spending a lot of time here. As soon as he finds out that he has been fixed and feels different, he'll stay around our yard way more and then when it gets colder mom will bring him in. Our other sister Lady Jane, she don't like being all around us cats so mom bought her a cathouse that she puts a heating pad in it in the winter for her, otherwise, she does try to get her to come inside still. When she refuses, mom don't feel so bad seeing her cuddle inside that house ontop the heating pad. Lady Jane has tons of Persian fur too so that helps. Momma just got done her typing transcribing for the university. She had 16 interviews and had over 40 hours work! She takes her timesheet into today but is picking up more transcribing to do. Mom loves to be able to type at home and work on her own computer and not have to commute and deal with "silly office politics"!! Besides that, we get a stay at home momma and in between breaks, she plays on Catster. Momma also collects some pretty special dolls by Dollmaker and Masterpiece. Her granddaughters love that! The only thing is these are not play dolls, they are very expensive heirlooms that momma wants to be able to pass down as a special beautiful inheritance, that is, if the Lord tarries. Love, The Jones clan kitties!Baby and Sweetpea and Sasha and Melah and Lady Jane, Love Muffin and Mr. Vegemite!!

Fredcat ma dear boy, Just because The USA is now your ADOPTED country of origin doesn't mean that you should celebrate its independance from Queen Lizzie the second (for who half those american people would give thier eye teeth to have her back) And lets face it at least a fifth of the british population would give them to America for free, a damn sight cheaper than America got London Bridge (not tower bridge as that is a vital part of the British make-up). I would fight for the right of Mr Fredcat naturalised American to celebrate whatever he wants and that includes Independance day, Because he is Fredcatspectaclar and wonderfurous (to take the words out of Bush's mouth) So Happy Independance Day with many fireworks shooting up in the sky, this is best viewed from indoors if at all. From DeFish of the two views (was it I who cut down the cherry tree? Nay twas that Washington chappie who is jeordie in origin isn't he?)       
JimmyDeFish, Stockport, England, Jul 5 2007  

Happy Happy Independence tDay to Fredcat the Famous, his best friend, Cathie, and Mr. B., the Grumpy One from Patsy and Callie Cat! Hope you had an exciting 4th! Love, Callie Cat (and Patsy)      
Patsy B. and Callie, Jul 5 2007  

Dear Fredcat, Mom is so upset this morning as she sent a check in a month ago to renew her Catster plus and today all the pages are gone, the fancy stuff, because they said the subcription ran out!! So, she called and left a message early and her phone number and told them the check number. Mom hopes that they can just put all her pages back because it will be way too much work to redo all of them!! We adopted a stray black kitty momma named Mr. Vegemite. She finally was able to win his trust when she put him in the carrier and took him to the vets and got him fixed. He also had infected absesses on his face that were terrible and the vet had to cut open and drain them. She gave him an antibiotic shot and also cleaned out his ear mites. The FIV test came back a light blue positive but momma is going to take care of him. She has all kinds of information about FIV and that they can only pass it if he don't wear a condom! hee-hee! He is fixed now and he is not going to bite any of us anyhow. He is very sweet and friendly. He wants to stay outside all the time and mom has been trying to get him used to staying inside. Mom is able to get him to take his antibiotics by putting it in his milk and he has been a good boy at taking it. He had the surgery on Tuesday and he looks so much better and happier because we can tell that he feels so much better with the torment of the face pain and the ear mites being gone. Lots of cats live long happy lives with FIV and mom knows people who have them living with negative tested out cat family members. They can only get it through biting deeply, another cat. Besides that, the vet said the kind that he got is not the strong controlling kind, whatever that means. Mom just feels bad for the poor kitty and wants him to at least be loved and wanted and cared for. You can check out his page if you want. Mom had the page fixed so neat and now all the catster plus stuff is gone!! mom hopes that they will replace and put it all back! She don't want to have to do it over. Mom has been transcribing for Washington university and she works at home on her computer and emails it in. She has 16 interviews to type and each one is about 3 or 4 hours long! So, she is busy working and don't want to have to put back the pages. So, poor Mr. Vegemite didn't have a skin allergy on his face, it was absesses. For everything done for him, getting fixed, having the absesses drained, antibiotic shots and medicine to bring home, ear mite removal, FIV test, mom was only charged $138 by our vet! Our vet understands mom has lots of rescued babies she takes care of and gives her a break. love, Baby and Sweetpea and Sasha and Melah and Lady Jane, Love Muffin and Mr. Vegemite!!

Awwww Fredcat, what bee-yoo-teeful pics you have in your diary! Me and my human, Patsy, are worried right now because we saw standing you in a box today - your humans aren't thinking of packing you up and mailing you off are they? Say it isn't so!!! Nooooooo!! We need you writing! Best loves, Callie Cat (and Patsy)      
Patsy B. and Callie, Jul 2 2007  

Greetings, my old friend! Sorry not to write earlier, but Mom hardly ever gives me keyboard time. I read about your v*t trips... bummer! There you are, not feeling your best, and what do they do but whisk you off to the worst possible place in the universe, thinking that will make things better. I can't imagine what twisted logic goes into that, so I don't try, but I'm sure sorry you had to endure it. I'm very relieved you're feeling better despite that nonsense! Anyway, I'm writing to congratulate you on being an Intawebs Millionaire! I'm so chuffed to have such a famous pal! We really must get together again soon for more high adventure. Things are too boring around here (at least, until dinnertime). So you hang in there, buddy, and I'll see you soon. Good thoughts and nose touches from WeezerCat

Hello Freddie! We are Baby and Sasha and Sweetpea and Lady Jane and Melah and Love Muffin. Just dropping a note to say hello and how handsome you are. We are kind of upset that our momma is taking care of this big black dude that comes over at 5 am in the morning and yowls outside her bedroom window! Love Muffin is so territorial that mom has to be careful to open the door because she wants to rush out and beat the crap out of him! He was left abandoned, and he is not fixed and has a terrible skin allergy. Mom feels sorry for him and takes care of him. Of course, she will not allow him to come inside, but, she does the best she can in taking care of him. She nicknamed him Vegemite. A black substance eaten and adored by Aussies.

Ann W. and Miss Kitty, VA US, Jun 8 2007  

Dearest Fredcat, I have to confess that I've been alarmed while reading your Famous Diary this week. You seem to be having some health problems that are not easily solved. Fredcat, please be sure to confide all your aches and pains to Mr. B and Cathie, since they always have your best interests at heart and will do everything they can to tend to your needs. Please don't try to be so fearless and proud: all of us have hurts at some times, and we need our loved ones to help us out. Think of the vet as your friend, and the vet's office as a place to regain your health. I will be anxiously awaiting a report from your wonderful humans, and am wondering how I'll get through the weekend without worrying obsessively about my Famous Friend. Please know that I will say prayers and hold all the best wishes and highest hopes for your recovery. After all, you are unique and irreplaceable. love and gentle hugs from your loving friend in L.A., Dana      
Dana and the kits, WV, Jun 8 2007  

Oh Fredcat how scary for you!!! My human Patsy told me about you being in the kitty ER and we hope your feeling better and are breathing good now. Breathe deep and drink lots of water in this Carolina heat, you ultra famous cat. Hugs, Callie cat (and Patsy)      
Patsy B. and Callie, Jun 7 2007  

Hi Fredcat! Please do take care of yourself and listen to Cathie and do as she says. We all love you and want you to stay well. We hope you are feeling much better now and are soon up to your famous antics. Much love from all of us, Littlebit, Snoopy, Skeeter, and of course Sharon

Thank goodness your site is pure and unsullied by such as the Raymond's revue types or those who bat for the opposite teams. That is not to say that they should be denied their sites, as long as they keep their hands off the Fredcat the Famous' wondrous blog and tales.

Hello, We're very glad no one was injured in the fender bender. What do we need to do to acquire a Fredcat sticker? If it isn't too strenuous or arcane, we would most certainly like to have one. It would proudly be displayed on our car. Thanks and greetings to the Mighty Orange One! Kate and Toby aka The Tower Hill Mob       
Kate with Toby, Mass US, Apr 15 2007  

Thank you, Kate, Toby and the Tower Hill Mob! My best human friend, Cathie, came out of the incident without a scratch on her - unlike her car! I was so pleased she was safe and sound.

I had to stop issuing my free bumper stickers for a little while after my offer was published on the intawebs as a "freebie" to any one who cared to email in. I'm happy to send free bumper stickers to genuine feline lovers but virtually all of over a hundred requests received in a twenty four hour period were from people who'd never read my famous Diary! (Of course, I did reply to each properly-asked-for request). Of course I'll send you a free bumper sticker - as I will anyone else who reads my Diary (see the hint at the top of this page!) All you have to do is email me with your mailing address. Best wishes from:

Hi Fredcat, I was perusing Jeter Harris's blog http://jeterharris.blogspot.com/ and he had posted a picture of a cat named Bruce who lives in Buckinghamshire, England. Bruce has facial markings that are very similar to yours and I know that you used to live in England. Could he be related to you in some way? He's not quite as handsome as you, but close.

Hi there, Buddy! Long time no talk! I know this email looks like it's coming from my mom, Susan, but she's gone to bed and it's my turn at the keyboard. Before I take my nap in it, I just wanted to commiserate on the arthritis thing. I have to take meds for mine, too, and it seems ridiculous. After all, I'm only six... have been for years... certainly way too young to have the misery in my joints. (Okay, I'm not as young as you, but still.) On the other hand, I must confess that taking that stuff really does help when I'm positioning myself at the food bowl or getting comfy in my bed. These humans and their pesky medicines are an annoyance sometimes, aren't they, my friend? But I suppose they mean well, and I guess we just have to humor them. After all, they're pretty fair company in most other ways (especially warm laps!). Gotta snooze out now. Keep the faith, Fred! Cheers from Weezer

Hi Fredcat! Just wanted to say hi and tell you how much we enjoy your site (me and my little bro, Pippin). I'm glad to hear you're feeling better. I've been out of sorts and just finished my medicine (after 4 weeks!). Glad to be feeling better. Now I can show Pip why it's good to be the big brother! Take care. Chopstix and Pippin (plus best humans Scott and Stephanie)

Dear FredCat, I would like to introduce myself, my name is Daisy and I am a Pink Pit Bull. I and my human enjoy reading about your adventures on a daily basis. My web site is: http://daisy-the-dog.blogspot.com I just wanted you to know that I added your cool site as a link on my Blog. I hope that is OK. It's just that there are not to many of us, er, animals, that actually have blogs! Do you know of any others? All the best, Daisy the Dog pinkdaisydog@gmail.com and my website

Happy New Year dear Fredcat! 2007 does seem like an interesting year to be ahead! Petey, Tally, Mia and I celebrated the evening quietly, watching the Acorn declare the new year's arrival in downtown Raleigh. The Fur Gang found the countdown (in the corner of the TV) to be more intriguing than the actual descent of the Acorn. They wanted to know how those numbers melted away so quickly, backwards at that! We humans often ponder the rapid passing of time. Wouldn't it be nice to slow it down a bit...especially on momentous occasions? Some neighbors celebrated with fireworks. The Fur Gang was curious as to the commotion, but didn't particularly care for the sporadic popping noise! It is with anticipation of an awesome year that the Fur Gang and I wish for you dear Fredcat , Cathie and Mr. B a most wonderful 2007! Congratulations on the longevity of your blog and it's popularity! We are among your greatest fans Fred! Teresa T. and The Fur Gang     
Teresa T, Petey, Tally and Mia, Sanford, NC, Jan 1 2007

Dear Fredcat, Here's wishing you, Cathie, and Mr. B a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Thank you for the gift of your diary and for the Fredcat bumper sticker. One of my New Year's resolutions is to send you a picture of it in use. I shall try. In the meantime, take good care of yourself Fredcat and keep up the good work. Love, Ann and Miss Kitty      
Ann and Miss Kitty, VA, Dec 22 2006  

Dearest Fredcat, I'm writing to wish you a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! I know you haven't been feeling well lately, but no doubt Cathie and Mr. B are taking good care of you, and I hope you'll cooperate with them when you need to visit the vet and take medicine. You can always complain to your adoring public through your diary later on. ;) Oh dear, the indignities you have to suffer, at times... Fredcat, I am so grateful for your presence on the Internet and your willingness to share your thoughts and experiences with us. You mean so much to me: you are not merely handsome and smart, but also informative, introspective, and intriguing. You manage your humans well, and are up-to-the-minute on the latest technology, too. And in spite of all this, you find time to send personal mail. What a guy! God Bless You, Fredcat, this Christmas and every other day too. love& hugs from your friend Dana in Los Angeles

Hello, Fredcat! Merry Christmas to you and your family! My Mum says if you check The Times online or the BBC you can get the Queen's Christmas message. She says your people probably already know that. We'll be having ham instead of the usual roast, so that will make a nice change. I'm already looking forward to it! Take care and try not to overindulge. Toby

Holiday Felicitations to our Famous Fredcat and His Dedicated Human Feline Fancying Friends, Cathie and Mr. B.! The Fur Gang (Petey, Tally and Mia) and I are wishing for you a very Merry Christmas and A Happy New Year! This year the Fur Gang is content to be allowed only visits to the Christmas Tree as it is the parlor. With wide eyed excitement teeming, they are not to be trusted in temptation! They surely love the attention the holidays afford them though. This year they have three new feline friends that will be coming to visit over the holiday...Tabby, Pumpkin and Maggie. They anticipate a holiday filled with love. We wish the same for you Fredcat,...and some of the best morsels in your dish. We thank you for sharing your adventurous escapades and sage feline pondering in your posts.

Festive Felicitations Festooning For famous Furry Feline Friend Fredcat. Well I've done my bit for the season of good will, I've been on Hope Oasis telling them of your poorliness and the necessity for the visit to the v*ts. So hopefully LOTS OF SYMPATHY will be flowing your way from thence. Indeed, to be forcibly washed in what can only be described as rose water and then sent home smelling like a She cat's handbag is not a fate to be desired. On a lighter note ask Cathie if she ever remembers the great smell of BRUT by Faberge? Well it is back on the market and in the chemists (after shave and splash on body lotion). SWell it was good enough for 'Enry so it's good enough for me, of course I save the posh stuff for official engagements (the Gucci and the Lancombe) but good ol' Brut is good enough for every day. Always remember that your fan club is still strong over here. From your ever lovin NUMBER ONE FAN Jimmydefish       
JimmyDeFish, Stockport, England, Dec 14 2006  

Hello, Fredcat! We're so glad to see you looking well and frisky! We don't have turkey at Christmas here- we do a nice roast beef and yorkshire pudding instead. Hope you all stay well and warm through the holiday season. We're looking forward to pictures! Best wishes and holiday greetings, The Tower Hill Mob      
The Tower Hill Mob, NE US, Dec 8 2006  

Fantastic Festive Felicitations For Fantastically Festive Feline Furry Friend Fredcat! With the hope that you'll forgive using the word festive twice in my enormous alliteration (indeed I have never reached a ten before) and oh dearest one you are An absolute ten. I do hope you are preparing for the holiday celebrations and not planning on having any of Squire's descendants squatting with their devilish tricks this year. Just a word from the wise to forewarn you so that your yuletide can be truly a merry one. I somehow get these psychic messages of forewarning from over the pond. I'll email you greetings soon from your self appointed number one fan Jimmydefish XXXX       
JimmyDeFish, Stockport, England, Dec 5 2006  

Hello, Fredcat ! Just popping in to say 'hi' to one of our favorite kitties. We are all going to have meatloaf for dinner in a little while. Toby sincerely hopes that you have an equally yummy dinner this evening. Take care. The Tower Hill Mob

Dear Mr. Fredcat, Please allow us to wish you a belated Happy Birthday. We're furry sorry we forgot, as our human Debby was having computer problems and wasn't able to access your web site for quite a while. We are glad you are doing so well for a five-year-old, and hope you have many more fifth birthdays to come. Respectfully meowed, Kitty Schottland, Lilith Kitten, and their best human friend Debby

Happy Thanksgiving to the World Famous Fredcat and his wonderful family! Enjoy your turkey and naps. Sharon      
Sharon Younts , Nov 22 2006  

Dear Fredcat, I am writing a few days early to wish you and your wonderful humans, Cathie and Mr. B, a fine Thanksgiving Day. I hope that you will be healthy enough to eat plenty of meat and anything else that tastes good to you. I know that even at your tender age, you may require medicine and more visits to the vet, but please be assured they are for your own good. Your faithful friends out here in cyberspace are most anxious that you be well. Fredcat, I want you to know that I am very thankful for your presence in my world. You have (unknowingly) kept me company many times, as I read your diary, and have comforted me when I felt frustrated at a long spell of work or impatient with other humans. There can be no more eloquent feline than you, dear furry friend, and you deserve the very best treatment. So I'm also thankful for Cathie & Mr. B, and I envy them because they get to tend to you every day. love and kisses from your friend in L.A., Dana B      
Dana B, LA, Nov 20 2006  

Hi there, Dearest Fredcat! The Fur Gang has asked me to relay their "Thanksgiving Greetings". Petey, Tally and Mia are eagerly awaiting Thanksgiving Day. As we do not know the exact date of their birth, we have set aside Thanksgiving Day every year to celebrate their birthdays. This year they will be 3 years old! They were born sometime around the last of November. We felt this day, to celebrate, quite fitting as we are very thankful for these three moggies...and all their antics. Dear Fredcat, there is much to celebrate and for which to be thankful this year. The Fur Gang is very thankful for their Favorite, Famous, Feline Friend, Fredcat and his best humans, Cathie and Mr. B. We all wish you a great holiday with all the trimmings! Bring on the turkey bits with gravy! My goodness, how The Fur Gang does groom their whiskers at the thought! Purrs and our best. Teresa T. and The Fur Gang     
Teresa T, Petey, Tally and Mia, Sanford, NC, Nov 13 2006  

Hi there, Fur Gang and Teresa T! Many thanks for your email. Now that Mr. B. has finished done sorting out my website I can concentrate on replying to emails more quickly. I love it when my friends get in touch with me! The mere thought of turkey makes my mouth water. My humans can make a turkey last several days - which is good - even though I have to fight off my best human friend, Cathie, for all the best white meat. Mr. B. has to make do with the dark meat but he'll eat anything, anyway (like a lot of human males of my acquaintance!) I bet you guys will have a lot of whisker-licking to do over the next fortnight (i.e. two weeks) until it's all over. Then on to Christmas - and the same, all over again! This time of year is my favourite! Apart from spring, because of the nice weather. And summer, because my Cathie has summer holidays and can be with me all day! Best wishes and purrs right back at'cha,Fredcat the Famous       
Fredcat,  Nov 15, 2006    

Hiya Freddie, Just thought I'd mail to let you know how much I appreciate your links, as ever. I particularly liked the kitties in PC's and so on from your Wednesday page. Keep 'em coming! I have heard you have been not so well of late and that your best human friends, Mr B and Cathie, are doing their level best with the assistance of the V*T make sure your troubles are not too intrusive. Your colleague Snotty sends purrs to you and hopes the tuna and lamb chops and best beef are in good supply. Chuck a chins to you best boy. mx

Happy Hallowe'en, Fredcat! We hope your day is all treats and no tricks. Tilly and Toby      
Kate with Tilly and Toby, NE US, Oct 31 2006  

A Halloween Hello to Our Dear Fredcat! A beautiful day to have such a wonderful day; praying for good health and lots of love to you. The Fur Gang and I have been much concerned about your health as of late and revel in the good news that you are doing quite well. Trick or treat! Petey, Tally and Mia recently have taken to "treats" and do not care whether it is Halloween or not. "Treats" are "treats" according to them! They unabashedly ask for them daily. I guess that is OK....since they practice "tricking" me on a daily basis too. Oh, they do, so live the good life. We hope that any Halloween goblins who visit you, come with only friendly spirits! No costumes here, Dear Fredcat. We are what we are! Sometimes that might be thought of as scary enough. No Spooky thoughts, Dear Fredcat, just wishes for you, Cathie and Mr.B to have a very happy, healthful and safe Halloween! Teresa T. and The Fur Gang (Petey, Mia and Tally)     
Teresa T, Petey, Tally and Mia, Sanford, NC, Oct 30 2006

Hello, Fredcat! You're looking much more like your handsome self! We're glad you're feeling better. Best beef (and lots of it) will help the recovery process. We look forward to having some beef and mushroom pie this weekend. Winter is coming and we must all bulk up. Best regards, The Tower Hill Mob      
Kate with Tilly and Toby, NE US, Oct 18 2006  

Darling boy, I am extremely distressed to hear you are unwell! I know the excellent Dr. B (and the meloxicam) have made you feel better, but please take it easy and take good care of yourself. You are very precious to us, your fans, dear one. I am sending strong good thoughts for your well being. Much love and many prayers, from Susan      
Susan Lackey, Carrboro, NC, Oct 16 2006

Hello, my buddy Fredcat! Mom finally got around to reading me your latest adventure today. What a great mystery story! And I was SO excited to find that I was one of the characters! (Hahaha! Cream on my whiskers, indeed! Chance would be a fine thing. The closest Mom lets me get to cream is sniffing her morning coffee. But never mind that.) What glorious fun to be included included in one of your Fredcat Tails! I am honored, my friend. I just wish I could really have been with you to celebrate your Fifth birthday. I will be having one of my many Sixth birthdays in a few months (I am always Six. Isn't it wonderful?). If I can talk Mom into having a big party, I hope you can come! Three cheers for you, Fredcat, and a touch of the nose from me, your pal, Weezer.      
Weezer and Susan Lackey, Carrboro, NC, Oct 10 2006  

Dear Fredcat, Alley, Peanut and I all wanted to wish you a happy (belated) birthday. They are both big fans. We are very glad to see that you had a good day! Sincerely, Kelly (Alley and Peanut's human)

Dearest Fredcat, I'm wishing you all the best on your birthday: it surely is one of the most important days of the whole year! I hope this day is filled with all the things you love: savory treats, loving attention from Cathie and Mr.B, lots of fond greetings from human and animal friends, plenty of rest and a wee bit of exercise, perhaps. You are a supremely important feline, a model for your followers, and therefore you must have an appropriately excellent birthday. Please remember that your fans out here anxiously await your famous diary entries and derive great satisfaction from hearing that you are healthy and happy. And of course I wish you many more wonderful birthday celebrations! love and hugs from your friend Dana in Los Angeles

Hi Fredcat! **HAPPY BIRTHDAY** (sorry about the caps, but it seems to work on eBay...) So impressed with you, you long living 5-year-old...it never seems to amaze me the amount of effort you put into your website, especially without the benefit of opposable forefingers! Anyway, well done. so glad for you, love you millions, and I'm very sorry for any accidental poking or prodding you had to endure as a youthful cat in the UK! Love, David.      
David, England, Oct 4 2006  

Fredcat, Just wanted to let you know that I received your bumper sticker yesterday. Thanks a lot! I will take a picture of it once I stick it on my car bumper and send it to you.Thanks again, Ninel.      
Ninel K., ON Canada, Oct 3 2006  

Freddikins my darling, I do know how difficult it is to pinpoint with exactitude the exact calender date of your natal day, however, I would like to convey my felcitations on the anniversary of your birth, however approximate it is. I do believe that you are going to be five. Quite a milestone. As good manners preclude asking a lady her age, so I will refrain from enquiring as to the year of your birth. Suffice it to say that whichever year it was, we have all been blessed that it ever occurred. Best purrs and hugs and cuddles. Long may you dance your way round our hearts and intawebs. mx      
Margaret, Liverpool, Oct 3 2006

Dear Fredcat, Hello, I found your website quite by accident. I find it to be truly charming. I have to admit, I am one of those “cat lover” persons. Your best friend Cathie must be a very special person and she is very lucky you found her. I have tears in my eyes as I am writing to you—I lost my beloved pet cat, Porky, two years ago this past June. She also found me at a pet adoption center in the town where I live. She was very old and lived a long life, but I still miss her very much. She was a very special cat—you would have liked her very much.

Dearest Fredcat and Family. Have you ever considered setting up a way your many worldwide fans could "chat" with one another regarding you and the many great topics and links that are provided in your beautifully written diary. Just a thought. Please be well. Love, Peaches and Petey      
Penelope and Petey, Aug 29 2006  

Hi there. Penelope! My goodness you have set me a poser and no mistake! I asked both my best human friend, Cathie, and the Grumpy One to think about this and they haven't really come up with an answer. There is a service called a "Chat Room" available but there are lots of risks associated with it. Apparently, so my peeps tell me, everything that is said (that means written) in a chat room stays there almost forever, it seems, and chat room security can be rather poor. There are stark warnings presented to users every time one logs on to a chat room. I would hate to be around if the chat room talk became "messy". This was one of the considerations we thought about when we set up the Guestbook, I recognise that the Guestbook is not interactive and the speed of loading to the internet depends upon my humans transferring comments to the Guestbook from the emails sent to me. They always, eventually, do this but they are slow sometimes if other activities get in the way. If one uses Gmail or Yahoo mail then it is possible to "chat" interactively with each other. You and I could do this if we were both online at the same time but I'm not sure how it would work with a third party who wanted to join in ... I have tried to keep the personal details of Fredcat readers away from prying eyes so that nobody can guess who they are (within reason). I don't keep "records" of those who email me and of course I have no commercial interest in anyone who does email me; I don't pass on or sell details to third parties. If you have any further thought please let me know. With very best wishes, Fredcat the Famous

Fantastic Felicitations For Favourably Furry Feline Friend Fredcat the Famous. Well you will never believe it but today has been Chadkirk Festival day and I have been watching those medieval people who call themselves the knightrs in battle. Realn funn stuff it was too! As they actually do follow the medieval lifestyle (even eating the same type of food as wot they did in the middle ages). Jolly interesting for a middle aged bloke like me Aaah to be a bold knight like wot dem Howards were (dreams of being a bold footsoldier with all that padding and chain mail, it takes a bold man or a good flight of arrows to find a chink in his armour. Alas though I have to awaken from such drerams methinks, just like your dreams of having a royal visitor, simply dreams -alas.

Hola amigos : tengo 49 años y una niña de 11. Cuando era pequeño mis padre me llevaron a ver una película que se grabó en mi mente. En ella una gatita llamada Tomasina me hizo reir y llorar. Hoy deseo poder mostrársela a mi hija pero sólo recuerdo el nombre de TOMASINA. En la búsqueda en la web encontré la nota de Jimmy De Fish donde la menciona. Les agradecería mucho me enviaran algun dato adicional sobre la película, título original, año, etc. Muchas gracias y un caluroso abrazo.Rubén.

Dearest Fredcat, I haven't written in so long-- please forgive me. I've been busy at work and actually took a couple of little vacations (I think you call them "holidays"). I hope that things in your household are to your liking. And naturally I wish you, Cathie, and Mr. B the best of health. I am so honored when you use my name (!) in your diary. I am merely your humble fan, so it's a thrill when I see my name used close to yours. I will keep trying to send you interesting articles, in fact, I have one today and here's the link: . It's about the resident cat at the Algonquin Hotel in New York City, and how his secretary manages his emails. Fredcat, do you think you'd like to live in a fancy hotel? It would mean being petted by a lot of strangers, but you would probably share in the delicacies prepared by the hotel chef! Oh well, you are best off in the loving arms of Cathie (and even the grumpy Mr. B, your scribe). Do take care, Perfect One, and perhaps be glad that the World Cup is over?! love & (friendly) head-butts, Dana      
Dana B, LA, Jul 10 2006  

Hello, Fredcat, You should be grateful that your humans are not Red Sox fans. 19 innings after the World Cup is just plain nuts. Sincerely, Toby, Tilly and Inky.

Fantastically Festive Felicitations Fantasmagorically Famous Furry Feline Friend Fredcat the Famous. Well pop mi corks I think that I have surpassed myself with the old alliteration there, I make it Nine Fs in an unbroken sequence just for a special top mark greeting for the Honary American State Feline (awaiting election) on the most inportant day to all naturalised felines in the United States. What there is only one in living memory? Who is that? Need I ask, its Fredcat the Famous! Hip Hip Hooooooooooooraaaaaaaaaaay!!!! Freeeeeeeehd-Caaaaa-ert! Hoorah!-Hoorah!-Hoorah-Hoorah-Hoorah! (Those last three hoorahs are said in quicker successiion) yeyes a special greeting from the sultry old cold country. I think that even you would find the present climate somewhat preferable to the one you escaped all those years ago. From your Mate Jimmydefish XXX      
JimmyDeFish, Stockport, England, Jul 4 2006  

Darling Fredcat, I think you might be being a wee bit unfair about this Father's Day thing. You may not have a relationship with your own father, and you may not have any kits of your own (both true of many animals, fur and human alike), but you DO have someone near who fills the role of... almost... very nearly... dare I say it? a Dad. Perhaps you might consider returning that chuck-a-chin, eh? All my best wishes, as always, Suze      
Susan Lackey, Carrboro, NC, Jun 20 2006  

Favourable Felicitations Favourite Furry Feline Friend Fredcathefamous, A super thought just thinked its way into my head why don't you adopt your offspring and as this is adopt a shelterd feline month you could conbine this with an opportunity to get a little (-nay a lot) of unpaid publicity. Can you only inagine it Fredcat the Famous MI5/CIA agent doing his No one compassionate act of the milenium adopting his family. Just a thought my dear Ginga and White pal. Yours in Love and Peace James W. Fisher (Jimmydefish) XXX

Hello Fredcat! Although our beans have no children, they celebrate Mothers' and Fathers' Day because they are such good parents to us! Tilly and Toby      
Tilly and Toby, NE US, Jun 19 2006  

I am so happy! Lots and lots of kind felines and their best human friends have written nice things to me. I am now purrectly content and I'll continue to do my best to keep my blog going. Some of you sent very colourful messages in all sorts of amusing fonts but I'm afraid that when Mr. B. got hold of them they all just sort of went a plain old black colour. I'm very sorry about that, but what can a famous feline do? One just can't get the staff, you know. I also note that some of the emails I sent to y'all around my triennium "bounced back". My best human friend, Cathie tells me that humans change their email addresses frequently, and I fear that some of my faithful readers didn't receive my personal message. It wasn't intentional, my friends! See you all soon. Fredcat the Famous       
Fredcat  Jun 20, 2006    

Hello Fredcat, Many congratulations on your 3 yr anniversary for your diary!!!! I miss having entries every day but I know a 'famous' cat like you needs time to take care of other things. I have had a stroke since our adventure 'Wedding Bells'. I recovered completely except have a 'sexy' (can I say that?) little turn of my head to the right. It took me awhile to get back to some of the usual things of the day but am glad to be back. Again, congrats on your 3rd anniversary!! Your friend, Sox (& Mom, Sue)

My dear beloved Fredcat, Congratulations and felicitations on three excellent years as a superb diarist! Your musings have kept us engaged, enthralled and highly entertained... and to think you did it ALL yourself, with only the help of two staunch humans to assist with the mundane details! You are truly a magnificent cat, darling boy. May your unique reign long continue! Much love from your devoted friend, Suze

Amber, Jun 6 2006  

Send them outside for a very long walk in the park, cut down on sweet goodies, or buy earmuffs. Best of all - sit them down in front of the computer to read my soothing webblog!       
Fredcat  Jun 19, 2006    

Freddie, dearest boy, Just had to drop you a line to let you know how much I enjoyed your links of 31st May and 2nd June. Very well done indeed, you clever boy you. I particularly enjoyed those of the 31st May. Though the hug cat images of the 2nd were extremely fetching I thought. I applaud your generosity of spirit in allowing other cute cats to share you space. Many thanks for the images and links. mxx      
Margaret, Liverpool, Jun 4 2006  

Wow Fredcat your awesome! Me and Angela took a short nap today and guess what?! No nightmares and I was as silent as a mouse! ( please pardon my language!).Thank you so much!!That bumper sticker sounds cool! Can you tell your human-friend to send my human-friend images of what it looks like? How much will it cost my human-friend? We are saving up for a BUUUUUUUUtifal collar!! Oh, I'm going to read your website now,bye! from, Amber! ( :

Hi Fredcat, I have 2 cats, I e-mailed you telling you I had a cat like you but here are pictures of both - (see the photographs link!)      
Ashley, Jun 1 2006  

Hello the famous Fredcat! My name is Amber (also a fellow cat!) I think you are great! I try to tell all my friends about your websites but they can't write! In fact my best friend Angela is typing this for me, we hangout all the time! But I think I'm getting her angry...because I always love to sleep on her bed at night with her.That's not the problem though, it's my nightmares! (and my snoring!) But what can I do Mr.Fredcat?Angela is very nice and has to wake up to make sure I'm ok, I'm sure she's tired! Please help Fredcat!!!      
Amber, May 31 2006  

Hi there, Amber! Thank you for dictating your message to me! I fully understand about writing. When Mr. B. was young (aeons ago) everyone wrote on paper but it's a lot easier now that there's computers - but even writing that way is proving to be too hard a task for some younger folk. So, of course, we felines lose out because of sloth. Ah, well. I don't think your best human friend Angela need worry too much. If she loves you dearly she will put up with the occasional snore or two from a truly great feline. If you're having nightmares then I suggest ejecting all bad thoughts from your mind before you go to bed - and then follow that up by reading a page or two from my famous diary. That will surely put your mind into "Tai Chi" (?) or some similar meditation thingie. It works for me! And tell Angela not to watch horror movies in bed late at night. When I go to bed I go to sleep (!) for hours and hours and hours and hours .... on end If all else fails, ask Angela to ask me to send her a Fredcat bumper sticker. They're great for sleeping on - or for sticking on one's vee-hickle. That has to help! Best wishes, Fredcat the Famous

Fantastically Favourable Flavoured Felicitations Famous Furry Fredcat Friend Fredcat. Wooo Hooo! As no doubt they say in that BIG COUNTRY of yours (yes it is yours now that you have been naturalised). And still only five years old what fun it will be when you reach your dotage and have Cathie (the Boss) and Mr B (the Butler) to care for your every needs. In the meantime HOOOOORRRRRAAAAAYYYYY! FOR THE ROOTIN' TOOTINEST ginger and white cat in the whole of the USA . Mamy more chuck-a-chins to you my very good friend over the pond (the Atlantic Ocean).

NEW YORK -- It's on to the next caper for Fred, the crime-fighting cat. The feline, part of an undercover sting in February to get a man pretending to be a veterinarian, is in the process of being certified as a therapy cat, according to his owner, Brooklyn Assistant District Attorney Carol Moran.Dana      
Dana B, LA, May 13 2006  

I enjoyed your Election Day diary entry very much, my dear. I am glad that Mr. B and our Cathie are not so swept up in their new allegiance that they have lost their critical regard for the machinations of politicians everywhere. But I especially liked the article on grammar and birds, because of the way it exposed the absurdity of much of human scientific thought. This from the article: "What the experiment shows is that language and animal cognition is a lot more complicated than scientists once thought [duh, says I] and that there is no "single magic bullet" that separates man from beast" Silly scientists! If man is not an beast.. er, animal, what do you suppose they think he is? Personally, I think the thing that separates man from the other animals is the notion of the bullet. (This is not a compliment.) Ah, Fredcat, if only we could all be cats! It would be such a better world! But wait. Who, then, would open a tin of our best tuna when we are feeling a bit peckish? *sigh* I suppose we will have to muddle through as best we can with the way things are. Much love from your friend, Suze

Festooning Favourable Felicitations Famous Furry Fredcat Friend, Cathie is playing my song (The favourite hand me another black plastic bag I've got to clear my wardrobe out! ) Alas I do not sing that song frequently enough and my wardrobe overflows frequently. I HATE THROWING OUT OLD CLOTHES but I just luuuurve buying noo ones. I know I need a new suit of clothes but I have to throw out the much loved garments and I don't like it! I have a double wardrobe full of stuff for OXFAM but I can't let go of it until it is almost ready to shake off it's coil. Nice to notyice that you've stopped tormenting those geckos, following my advicwe will pay dividends in the future mark my words. Love and Peace be upon you, From Jimmydefish

I just found your diary page and found it very interesting reading. My name is Fat Eric ,I am a British blogging kitty living in London. You seem to have had a very exciting life. I see that you were also British-born but have emigrated. I wondered if you would like to feature on our page for blogging ginger cats, The Gorgeous Gingers ? As you will see if you visit it, it features many handsome ginger kitties and you would surely be an asset to our group. Best wishes Fat Eric.

Favourable Felicitations Fantastically Fiendish Furry Feline Friend Fredcat. Why do I call you a fiend? Isn't that rather obvious after your last posting? Beating a poor innocent within an inch of his life is not a thing to be bragging about. What would happen if the Fredcat residence was overrun by insects? That poor innocent geko you gave a good pasting would be needed then wouldn't he? So leave him/it well alone in case it wreaks the geko's revenge. Yours feling trather worried, Jimmydefish

Dear Fredcat,I'm glad you're safe at home, because I read a story about another brave kitty who is not so fortunate: I'm a little concerned that your humans have to bring your food upstairs.Are you feeling alright? Please know that I wish you a Happy Easter, and hope you share in any special dinners or treats that appear on Sunday.love, Dana

Felicitations famous furry felineFredcat Friend. I just had to write to you to say that I realy admire your bravery having your ears done at the v*ts. I had to have one of my ears syringed at the local health centre and boy was it bad. A syringe of warm water shot into my ear, realy nasty. I shall go no further in my description as it makes me find quite ill, in fact I think that I shall go for a lie down in a darkend place. Love and Peace Jimmydefish      
JimmyDeFish, Stockport, England, Apr 12 2006  

Dear boy, nothing would please me more than you and Mr. B having... what shall I say? ... a rapprochement. You, the males of the household, united in your adoration of our beloved Cathie, should be as one. Or at least a little kinder to each other, eh? Do I see the beginnings of such a thing? I believe I do. Much love from Susan      
Susan Lackey, Carrboro, NC, Apr 9 2006  

Dearest Fredcat, I share your frustration. Spring has sprung, and every year it's the same. At the very moment I want to fling wide the doors and windows, the YELLOW HARVEST descends upon us and I must shut up the house, lest we all be buried in soft golden mounds of pine pollen, sneezing our heads off. Ah, the joys of North Carolina living! :O Your neighbor and devoted friend, Susan      
Susan Lackey, Carrboro, NC, Apr 5 2006  

Good morning, Mr. Fredcat! Our human, Debby, would like to know how long it took you, Cathie, and Mr. B. to become citizens of the U.S. We also thank you for the y'alls, although our human Debby prefers to say "youse," the New Jersey/New York equivalent to the plural "you." She also describes herself not as a "Floridian," but as a transplant from the northeast. She holds the northeastern United States very close to her heart, the same way we're sure you, Cathie, and Mr. B. hold the U.K. very near and dear to your own hearts.We look forward to reading about your voter registration process in your web long. Respectfully meowed, Kitty Schottland, Lilith Kitten, & Cousin Roscoe P. Catrane

Dana B, LA, Mar 29 2006  

Dear Handsome Fredcat, Thank you for writing back to me--it's always a joy to hear from you! I'm glad you don't mind when I send you the occasional cat story. I always look for cat news when I'm online, and after all, I know that you, an extremely smart feline, like to keep informed but are too busy to read absolutely everything. I think you and your humans made a wise decision to publish a 3-day-a-week diary: it just increases the anticipation for us, your fans in cyberspace. And I am so pleased that your Cathie is on a better course of treatment for her health problem: she is such a delightful and caring person, we all want her to be hale and hearty. Kudos to Mr. B too, for his part in taking care of both you and Cathie. I think that the reciprocal cat-human relationship is marvelous: what would we do without each other? Have a great weekend and be well, dear Fredcat! love & hugs, Dana

Fantastic Felicitations For Famous Furry Feline Friend Fredcat, Aliterations pouring off the page. I see my sending you the information about agent Humphrey landed upon fertile ground. I thought that anyone related to the famous Tony booth of Till Death Us Do Part Fame (Who was so affectionately called an Idle Scouse Git by Alf Garnett). It is quite curious but tony and Warren never got on in real life either suprisingly enough Tony became the Father of the Blair Witch. I mean no malice as I am a true socialist, I vote S.D.P. Also note that it was her that did it to Humphrey! It was she that got him shifted from the luxury of No 10 to a sparse living oe the military type (up at six and two hours parade before breakfast, Yessarr! From the life of a cosseted cat to being a regular squaddie, poor lamb! Just remember my hearts for Humphrey deceased mouser of Downing street.

Now it seems that you've got one divvil of a hangover -an there's only one thing that I can say an that's serves you right take my advice, take no-one's word but your own. And don't go on one of those shenanigans agin mi ol' shuckoo to be sure to be shure. An' characters of those kinds spell one word TRUBBLE.

Felicitations Famous Feline Furry Friend Fredcat. Upon reading the news that your daily blog is to be cut I felt I almost cheated. What no daily gathering of the local goss of the Fredcat household? Shame be on Mr B, cutting your postings in half removes the 'daily'ness of your work of literary genius. The ravens will be leaving the tower next. I realy enjoy reading your daily blog please please PLEASE keep it daily (like The Times only more fun!) I sincerely hope that yourself and the angry Mr B recommence this daily blog. You know it makes sense. Love and Peace jimmydefish
