I found a cat where I used to work in New Orleans. She ran away from her mama, she was still quite little, from what I can tell she may not have fed enough, and lived wild for a good bit. It took a month of patient insistence on my part to get her to allow me to touch her. I finally was able to bring her home (she left one of her fangs in my finger, that felt great). I named her Electra since she was living in the electric shed at Longue Vue House & Gardens.

I went on tour for 2 weeks in 2005. She ran away the day before I left. She came back the day I was heading out on another tour. She was gone for 21 days. Never did figure out where she was. That was on a Thursday. That following Monday Katrina hit and I didn't see her for almost 6 weeks. She was stuck at home (open window, running water, big bag of food) because my ex-wife couldn't bring her or the rest of the cats with her while evacuating.

I brought her with me for Gustav but probably didn't need to.

Will someone please adopt this precious little guy?

I had a cat for about 20 yrs when I was drinking heavy but never saw him. I know he was there though cause every morning when I woke up I knew he sh-t in my mouth!

I think Ronnie now has that pussy that Keith used to own.

Way to go Pinky! That's the lamest attempts I've seen to catch a cat with a stupid cardboard box. Great video. Still laughing my arse off.

You mean it hit you with its Tele when you tried to invade his private space?

Well, he did hit he with his incredible charm!

Looks like Birmans have a history in France. Check it out, dcba:

I assume you're talking about the guy in the video. Yeah, he's a dumb ass.

Pinky probably is a loving cat, but put any cat on a leash, take him to an unfamiliar area, surround him with a bunch of unfamiliar people and equipment, and just about any cat would freak out.

I want this for a pet.

What the heck is that?

Tasmanian Devil.

Merci for the link! Meow!

Don't know but I once saw Jerry Hall's pussy!

This is Struay when she was a kitten about 3 years ago. This was before she grew into her ears!

Photos are a bit fuzzy, I'm afraid. Also bigger images than I would like. I'm new to this - can I adjust the image size on Photobucket? I'd be grateful of any advice.

If those cats don't cool it, man.....

one of my favorite pictures ! .. period. Incidentally my current feline
companion is named "Boogie" ... anyone know the keith reference ?

wasn't "Boogie" the pooch Keith had with him at Redlands? used to swim in the moat, with the "water rats"?

hell yea ... there was an awesome story from around '71.This story has stayed with me since I was 11 !! ... always thought it was a killer name.

... and it's nice to know the Geneva Convention covers our furry friends!!

"Goodbye Great Britain: The Rolling Stones On Tour" -Robert Greenfield (1971)

Contentment positively flows from seat to seat, the engines are about to rev, it's five, four, three, two minutes to takeoff. When down the aisle comes a blue-jacketed airline official, all the way to the back seat where Keith and his dog recline. And the official says: "That dog flies by prior arrangement only sir, you'll have to get off the plane."

"What?"

"I'm sorry, sir, I warned you in the airport. How you managed to slip by me on to the plane I don't know but you'll have to get off now."

"Look, I've flown BEA, TWA, Pan-Am." Keith Richards, singer, composer, lead guitar player, Rolling Stone, is reciting a list of every airline he's ever been on. "To San Francisco, to places you or this airline have never been..."

"You have to supply a box, sir."

"I happen to know that section of the Geneva Convention very well; you have to supply the box. This is ridiculous. It's an emergency. My wife and family are here, we have to get home to take my child to a doctor tomorrow."

"I'm sorry, sir."

"We just want to get home. Is it that important? Just let us leave."

"The rules, sir."

"I know the rules. Get this plane going, we're not moving." Exit the official. Re-enter the official with two large blue Scottish policemen.

"Ere, wot's the law doin' 'ere? Come to arrest us all, have you? Oy, you you, oy." A big Scottish cop is doing his best to ignore Mick Jagger, who is lying flat on his backbone in a seat, naked to the waist save for a blue nylon windbreaker someone has thrown over him after he gave away his sweaty T-shirt on stage.

"Oy, oy," Mick says loudly, a saucy schoolboy trying to get the police to notice. He reaches out to jangle at the cop's sleeve.

"Now, now, chummy," the cop says, leaning over. "No one's done nothin' yet, why should we arrest anyone?"

"He's come to arrest the dog," Keith says.

"Wot you doin' 'ere," Mick demands of the cop, "A little dog like that. A puppy." His face falls. "You should be ashamed."

"Ooo called the law," he wails. "Arrest us."

"Chummy," the cop says, "I wouldn't give you the publicity."

"Chummy?" Mick demands. "Sir...look..."

"Don't curse me, I saw you say f--k, don't go curse me..."

Beautiful, Mick. All they have to do is search the luggage and it's 20 years in the Glasgow jail.

"Anita," Mick says, "Go find the captain."

Beautiful, Mick. Mata Hari Anita, all crocheted stockings and tiger hot pants, sent to seduce the captain of the airplane as it stands on runway in Glasgow.

"Goooo," Mick googles. Marlon, Keith's 18-month-old son, googles back and laughs. The cop is outflanked, bewildered, surrounded by little kids, slinky ladies, rock stars. Mick... beautiful.

"We'll put him in Charlie Watts' orange bag," Marshall Chess, the solution maker says, meaning the dog, "Is that OK?"

"Yes," says the cop.

"No," says the airlines official.

They trundle the dog off and put him in the hold and an hour and a half later, the plane touches down in London. Boogie doesn't freeze to death at all but instead comes spilling and sliding out on to polished airport floor.

my all white maine coon male cat passed away last year at the age of twenty four years old and he was such a great friend we used to go out to the back yard and hang out and have fun .i miss him so much .his name was xionaki which is greek for snowball

Sorry to hear about that, Greek.
My cat was a great friend, too.
We used to play ball. I would roll the ball to him and he would hit it back at me.
That would go on until I got tired and he never wanted to stop!

The Greek, i am sorry for your loss... but you have to admit, 24 is grand old age for xionaki! you were fortunate to have your precious kitty for so long... his long life is one to celebrate.

Edith G, it is so wonderful when our pets connect with us - as friends. That's what makes the great ones the most special...and the most missed.

it is sad when they leave... but they leave behind such incredible memories - you can't help but smile!

and on a Stones note, I just love knowing that Keith is such a kind-hearted animal lover! ...he has those friendly critter-vibes.....

to Edith Grove,and to bar_room_queen,thank you for your kind words about my precious xionaki.reading your kind words made me smile thank you .

So sorry about xionaki, Greekman.

Love all the pics of people's cats such as loochie's, rockman's and teleblaster's!

I have two of the feline creatures.

Howdy, ya'll !

There used to be a pic of Keith holding Voodoo (his cat from the '90s) on page one of this thread.

If anyone still has this pic, would you post it here or e-mail it to me?

Thanks!
