Splinter and his Shark

Splinter, the Bengal Kitten, just loved the shark he was given at Christmas. I bought it from the Op Shop for a $1.00 and he still likes to wrestle it around the place.

It must be tough, because it is still in fighting form. And so is Splinter.

Funnily enough, he is not a cat who likes playing with boxes or paper bags – but he can get quite carried away with his shark.

Splinter features on Facebook, and in stories

I uploaded this video to Facebook in October 2010, but I can’t remember how old he was when I took the video. He came into our lives in March, 2006, so now (Feb 2017) he has already turned eleven.

It’s on our Facebook page at Stories My Nana Tells on Facebook  He is one of the key characters in the new series of stories The Cats of Beatty Avenue.

He is also plays a role in two of our books – Ulla Bird and the Pit Ponies, as well as Scarlet Robin.  You can expect to see quite a bit of Splinter, as time goes by.

He has his own story – from Day 1.

in late March 2006, I was going away overseas and I could not leave my Dad (Nono) home, alone without a cat. So, on a sunny Saturday afternoon, I put a cardboard box onto his lap and said “This is for you!”

What an adventure followed!
