                Found this growing on one of our compost heaps!

                Do you think it could be a problem? :scratch:

                Has anyone had problems with this before?

                I know that ARMANDII has the multi-coloured version growing on his compost heap as I've seen the photos. He doesn't seem to have a problem with that variety :dbgrtmb:

                  It's a "problem" that I would still love to have Mr Shiney.
                  Lovely marking; what species is your "problem"?

                    He's a Snow Bengal and his name is Sarafi.

                    Although he officially lives four doors away he spends a lot of time in our garden and greenhouse.

                    He's very independent and when he first came to the neighbourhood he would wander through our garden and ignore us. Now, with the persistence of Mrs Shiney, he will deign to be picked up and cuddled and allows us to give him tummy rubs and scratching under the chin and behind the ears. :cat-kittyandsmiley:

                    We often see him hunting rabbits in the fields and he doesn't seem to be afraid of anything. Even if I start the mower near him he will just ignore it.

                    If a door isn't closed properly he will get his claws behind it and pull it open.

                    He's nowhere near as friendly and cuddly as Oscar was (he's too snooty for that! :heehee:) but he's a pleasure to have around. :)

                    EDIT: I understand that to buy a good Snow Bengal kitten could set you back up to £500. :hate-shocked:
