Yes Lulu tabbies are lovely, they are lovely sometimes cats are lol and yes I agree much easier to look after than the children Grin
I also agree tho, I didn't expect ur DH to have a beard either Lulu [grin

Lill yay! Grin it smells so good, really does work tho :)

lillamyy1 · 27/04/2015 22:58

I'm going to get some of that monkey farts cream too, thanks cupcake Grin

lillamyy1 · 27/04/2015 22:57

Aww what gorgeous cats lulu and cupcake! And a gorgeous little boy Lulu Smile
Haha Ducky I realised you'd put the wrong emoji Grin
I totally imagined what everyone looked like too as didn't imagine Lulu's DH to have a beard either Grin

LuluJakey1 · 27/04/2015 22:27

Oh he is beautiful Cupcake, he has lovely markings. I love tabbies.

DH was not keen on cats before we met but I had an old cat who was a total character and just attached himself to DH who had no choice. Then I got these two kittens from the RSPCA and DH just became their dad. The girl loves him and the boy- the one in the photos- loves me.

They are much easier than DS to look after. Grin

This is my ziggy curled up on the stairs lol :)

They used to sleep in our bedroom but their cat beds are on the landing now. One sleeps in the cat bed and the other one sleeps on the sofa in the sunroom and makes himself a little nest with the cushions and the throw.

If DS is wailing they hide.

Ducky23 · 27/04/2015 21:48

Mine was such a lovely soft cat, he would just follow me round the house, we had a cat flap and he would just go out about 9 - 9.30 then be back in by 10 my bed time and he'd come and curl up in bed with me

I was lulu Sad I had to have 3 days off work Blush they all thought I was nuts! If they're in at night where do they sleep? Dm has two cats and I sometimes worry they will sit on ds, or is that just an old wives tale? They aren't bothered by him either, one of them completely avoids him, the other just states at him as if to say 'what on earth is that'

Gosh Lulu hes a born hunter !
Ziggy is a boring cat he has never caught anything. He goes out most of the day to wander and then spends his night inside lying on the stairs or outside DS's room.
I think he's upstairs now. he has his own pillow outside DS's room lol.

U'll be sat there sniffing it so much Ducky! Grin smells beautiful! :)
Aww ur poor cat :( I worry that will happen to mine. He stayed out one night as I couldn't find him before I went to bed so he never came in but thank god he was waiting at the door when I got up the next day.

LuluJakey1 · 27/04/2015 21:44

That is awful Duckey. I would be in a terrible state if something like that happened. Our two are so soft. They love to be cuddled in. I worry when they are out but they only go out the back where it is fields. The front is a dead end and we live at the dead end end. They go out for hours. The other night he stayed out all night and when we got up he was sunbathing on the shed roof and there were 4 dead mice on the patio. He trotted in, scoffed two breakfasts and slept in the sun room all day.

He and his sister avoid DS like the plague. They ignore him or sniff at him as if he is something unpleasant.

Ducky23 · 27/04/2015 21:29

Just brought a sample pot Grin wasn't sure whether I should get narwhales and unicorns or monkey farts but I went for monkey farts Grin

When I had my cat he didn't really go out, he would go out for about 30 mins - an hour tops then come home, he would always be home to come to bed with me, one night he didn't return, I found him in the road Sad I had been up all night looking for him because it was so out of character. I do miss him Sad.

Alligator elbows and incontinence protection as well as nappy rash and mechanics hands. That cream does everything! I am tempted to buy some but is is very expensive.

LuluJakey1 · 27/04/2015 21:18

We think it is a collared dove egg. They build nests in the tree in the garden and he raids them. He catches bats as well and mice and voles, birds, frogs and shrews and a couple of rats.

LuluJakey1 · 27/04/2015 21:14

Cupcake, he came in with this before

They sell the £1.50 sample pots on their website.
I took a few packs of dry wipes when i was in hospital after having DS Blush the only other ones I've seen is huggies ones I thonk I saw them in mothercare

Ducky23 · 27/04/2015 21:06

I was going to get it last time cupcake but the only ones I could find were so expensive!

You did mention dry wipes last time but I haven't been able to find any anywhere, do you know where I can get any?

X post with Lulu !
Omg beautiful cat Lulu!! Look exactly like my ziggy :)

The tub is quite expensive but u can buy sample pots for £1.50 and they last me ages :) I just buy them lol

LuluJakey1 · 27/04/2015 20:52

I have never seen that Cupcake- do you have to buy it online?

I don't like pooey nappies. DH doesn't mind but DS does some stinkers and how someone so small produces so much poo I don't know. He likes doing poos as well, you can see it in his face when he has done one.

LuluJakey1 · 27/04/2015 20:47

Yes he has a beard- at the moment. I hate it. A beard and a big nose Grin

Here is the other best looking boy in the house tonight.

Just ignore the dates, I have dropped my ipad and it has shattered the glass and the date and time have gone to pot, everything has 2012 on it!!!!! I didn't even have it in 2012.

Cupcake92 · 27/04/2015 20:46

Lill how cute is he!!! Bless him!!
And Lulu ur DS seems to have grown up! :) aww they are all so adorable!

As for cream for bums I swear by and I mean swear by CJ's Butter monkey farts cream! It is the most amazing cream ive ever used. I got s free sample at last years baby show and I've never gone back, gets rid of a red bum in a matter of hours! :) I love it! (Monkey farts just means banana flavour lol!!)
Sudacrem is more of a barrier cream and u only put such a tiny thin layer on or it dries the skin out.
I'll see if I can post a link to the monkey farts cream :)

Hope everyone is alright ! :)
