Christmas is just around the corner and TMZ asked Ozzy Osbourne’s wife Sharon Osbourne what Ozzy is getting for the holiday.

Sharon said: “I’m going to get him a cat. It looks like a tiger, but it’s a cat. A small house cat.”

In a new interview with News.com.au, Ozzy Osbourne says that Black Sabbath maybe ending their legendary run, but he’s not going anywhere. Here are a few excerpts from the chat:

On the end of Black Sabbath…

Ozzy: “It’s the end of Sabbath and people have been asking ‘well I thought you were doing an album. But the things we’ve discovered are — number one: People aren’t really interested in hearing new stuff and number two: If we were to do an album before the tour — it would take three or four years to complete the album. We want to end it on a high note.”

The future of Ozzy Osbourne?

Ozzy: “Well I did pretty well for 35 years — and I’m not retiring. I’m going to do a solo album and a solo tour. I mean my wife’s a shop-a-holic always off buying f---g shoes or something so I’ve got to keep the money coming somehow.”

On the Black Sabbath drumming situation and the issues with original drummer Bill Ward?

Ozzy: “It’s nearly Black Sabbath. Every time I talk about him I get into trouble — so I don’t know — I don’t think so.”

On his reaction to guitarist Tony Iommi fighting cancer?

Ozzy: “When Tony was diagnosed with lymphoma we are all ‘oh God why now?’. But in saying that we all got around him. He said to us ‘look If I sit at home in my house thinking I’m going to die — I’ll fucking probably will die. He’s a different person to everyone else — he’s one of those guys who say ‘what do I have to do to fucking beat this. I mean there’s never been a leader of Black Sabbath but I suppose in the early days it was him. But don’t forget in the very early days he left and joined Jethro Tull — but then he told them to go fuck themselves and came back. He has courage in his own conviction — he’s fucking unbelievable.”
