Alfie, the ship's cat seems quite happy onboard. Does anyone else take anything other than a dog aboard? (By way of a pet, I mean).

He's OK for that, actually.

We have 2 cats as well as 2 dogs, would never dream of taking them to the boat!
Do you let him out, or have to keep him indoors?

He looks a little cracker.

Cheers

Al.

We're keeping him indoors at the moment, but you can train them to walk on a lead (he's a Maine [--word removed--] and will be big - think 30lb or more fully grown) so I quite fancy taking him for a walk on the pontoon.

Excellent, that's a proper kitty. If I get another cat, it'll be one of them. They eat small yippy dogs for breakfast

Haven't brought home any small dogs yet ... but brings home rabbits to play with ...., but do not like the boat ...

I've stopped drinking water .... I have seen what it does to the bottom of our boat!
