Welcome to my world

Hi, thanks very much for dropping in. My name is Tommy and I live in Carrara on the Gold Coast of Queensland Australia. It's a great place to live. That's a photograph of me at the top of the page, doing what I like doing best - relaxing! Well, on second thoughts, maybe eating is my favourite pastime, but relaxing or snoozing comes a close second.


My house overlooks a lovely canal and lots of my friends come to visit me. Take a look at some of them. If you have time, have a look at the expansive views from the top and bottom decks.


You can see some of my friends at the top of the page. Clockwise from top left they are Cocky, Wally, Terrence and Jimbo.


I was diagnosed with feline diabetes in August 2005, but that hasn't stopped me from continuing to live a healthy and non-productive life. I've had my parents specially trained to inject me with insulin twice daily. I know it sounds painful, but they do it while I'm eating and I don't feel a thing.

This is what my house looks like from the canal. I spend a lot of time watching the fish jumping and the wading birds slowly making their way along the banks. I also like to walk along the bank myself when I get the chance.

This is a view of my house from the street. Lots of lovely trees! I usually take my father for a leisurely stroll in the front yard in the mornings to fetch the newspaper, and sometimes I see my friend Jimbo going for a walk.
