In a previous life I used to have two black cats one of whom loved the trains. He would try and chase them into the tunnels.

Cheers,

Chris

@Stingray
Enter 'cat comes out of model train tunnel' on YouTube and there are a couple of clips. It could have been a whole lot worse!!

Hilarious. I was looking at the first picture and thought ooh nice loco, looked left and thought that tunnel is nicely modelled but why is the hill black and what are those unrealistic points......Then focused on the ????? and realised what the problem was.

Pretty layout and lovely cat but a bit more of a problem than leaves on the line!

Thanks for the laugh and excuse my slow processing, am using some strong stuff after recent surgery.

My layout is still very much at the planning stage/ playing with unitrak. I too suffer from furry obstructions .

In my last reply, I used a non-standard emoji. It was meant to be a large "eye".

Great fun thread.

Sorry I seem to have got my photo rotated. Panda can't defy gravity quite that much.

Fortunately don't have a cat but do have a twelve year old Cavachon (K Charles x Bischon cross) who hates certain things on the telly. The Cushelle advert with the koala bear primarily. When that advert comes on all hell breaks loose, he even try's to look behind the telly, managed to catch it so far. He amazed me once by watching the cartoon film the lady and the tramp all the way through.

One of my Dad's dogs, a border collie and staffie cross, loved to watch One Man And His Dog - she'd just sit quietly in front of the telly, nose almost up against the screen, all the while it was on.
She never bothered if anything else was on.

Stepson #2's goldie, Molly, loves the TV, especially science and nature programmes. She thought the crocodile was wonderful:

Could spawn a whole new cartoon series with a cat called DC, dressed like the Fat Controller ????
