    OK as modelled by deaf cat...

    ...The old chestnut of an AV9000, mint conditionish, which I just scored for the old money sum of GBP 280.00

    Now the only thing wrong is the contrast screen top right is coming away, so can I glue it myself (if so using what) or should I get B&O to do it, and at the same time clean the vcr? Big Smile

    More non-deaf cat pic available if you really desire Wink

     

    (sorry Keith, hopefully updated)

    Re: OK as modelled by deaf cat...

    Congratulations on your tv, a classic.

    I don't know how the contrast screen on a AV9000 is held in place, but on my MX6000 I have removed the whole contrast screen, and then glued the metal parts firmly back on the glass using two component epoxy glue (open window!). The MX contrast screen has a painted black edge all way round, so you should not be able to see any excess glue.

    good luck

    Hi there,

    Love the cat picture.... I have 4 of the critters myself. One of them (called Neo) looks exactly like yours.

    His favourite spot is sleeping on top of my beomaster 7000 ... 

    Regards,

    O.

    Re: OK as modelled by deaf cat...

    I'm pretty sure that's illegal here ...

    I couldn't do it anyway.

     

    Maybe I'll get an Aibo.

    Great photo benjnz - not uncommon for white cats to be deaf, it is the white gene which also carries the info' which causes this.

    You also get it with white dogs, particularly Dalmatians which are all born pure white and the spots appear later.

    I have 4 cats , all of them rescued. The oldest one was thrown out of car driving in front of us on the highway (at 100km/h).
    The other 3 came from the same litter and were about to be terminated that day at the spca. They just had too many to cope with.

    Mine only have the front declawed as they are the most destructive. They need their back claws for jumping etc. They never leave the house and don't have to catch their prey. Honestly doesn't stop them functioning by any degree anyways...they're hunters allright.... 

    Cats don't seem to like microfibre type fabrics or leather that much and a good scratching post is a must (even for declawed ones)

    Regards,

    O.

    De-clawing is illegal here in the UK - though I can see why you might want to do it for a house cat if the laws in your area permit it.

    We have two ragdolls that are thankfully very pliant by nature, and I cut their claws back because as they are house cats, they don't go outside and expereince the wearing effect of rough surfaces. They're strange boys - half brothers a year apart and with some strange interbreeding (their fathers were father and son, where the son mated with his own mother to produce one of them).

    Here's Mr Victor helping me make the bed:

    and his slightly less attractive and slightly less interesting brother Sol (he took to sitting under my Anglepoise lamp whilst I was revising in January. His head was red hot, but he wasn't bothered at all!):

    Re: OK as modelled by deaf cat...

    Aww hahahahaha! the picture of the big white cat made me chuckle, i love it, and hey lucky you for scoring a AV9000 in a country where it's not so common!

     

    On declawing... i've never heard of this, but my cat Theo has his claws clipped because he is an indoor cat, this was advised by the vet. Still doesn't stop him hoeing into all the furniture and bedding, but i'm ok with that, nothing i can do (i'm never going to punish or banish him just because i want to look after material things) - as long as he's happy, material possesions come second to a happy life Smile
