The concept:
a. Type your answer to each of the questions below into Flickr Search.
b. Using only the first page, pick an image.
c. Copy and paste the html into your blog or Flickr stream (the easiest way is to copy the URLs and then head over to the fd’s flickr toys link above and use the mosaic maker).

The questions and answers:
1. What was your favorite pet? Calico (tortoiseshell & white) shorthaor moggy
2. What was it’s name? She was nicknamed Pickle
3. How old where you when you got your first pet? The first to be really mine was when we moved to our own house when I was 30, but there had always been pets at home, including a dofg which came for my 7th birthday and was nominally mine.
4. What do you feed your favorite pet under the table? Almost nothing, the current 2 cats aren’t that interested in human food
5. Where to you like to take your pet on trips? Nowhere, they don’t like travelling
6. What is your pets favorite toy? String
7. What is the coolest trick your pet can do? Relax
8. Did you adopt your pet or buy it from a breeder? Rescued, all four of our cats (2 now long gone and the current 2) were rescued from The Blue Cross a charity which we continue to support
9. Where is the furthest you’ve taken your pet on a trip? For the current two, 7.2 miles from the rescue centre to home
10. What is the most extravagant thing you’ve purchased for your pet? Vet care
11. What is your favorite breed? Russian Blue cats
12. Describe your pet in one word. Pussy 😉

I guess I should explain that our first two cats were Floss (white & black; male) and Bubbles (aka Pickle; tortie & white; female) were rescued from Blue Cross at Victoria in August 1981. They were followed by the present two Harry (grey & white; male) and Sally (tabby; female) from Blue Cross at Hammersmith in December 1998. H&S appear from time to time on these pages. Notwithsatnding that there were always pets around home: cats, a dog, a tortoise, a duck. Oh and of course we also have fish. Now I know we’re mad!

Determined to do this without a human in any frame!
