So my DPs have been visiting and we've been thoroughly neglected by the cats who slept on my dad's head and my mum's feet, sat on their laps and purred. Now they've left the cats have been rolling around the spare bed! Feel quite left out.

They were also helping me brush my teeth Hmm

I've looked at the cat flat stuff before.

Someone on here posted here where you can buy the similar mesh on the roll and make your own, if you have odd sized windows..hope they see this and repost

EachandEveryone · 19/07/2017 12:45

I can't cut in a straight line so I'm no good. I just rang them with my measurements. I've left the window open and I'm at work let's hope they are still in when I get home

Poor caoraich. Grin

Look on the bright side. There have been posters here having near apoplexy at the thought of their cats being unhappy while they were on holiday. Wink

caoraich · 19/07/2017 14:11

@cozie very true. Am glad they had a nice hol and get on with their grand-humans.
Didn't stop DP and I stomping around like toddlers saying "But they're OUR cats!!" indignantly, though! Grin

I'm WFH today and the entire kitchen has been trashed due to the hunting of a solitary bluebottle...

cozietoesie · 19/07/2017 14:33

I can appreciate that. Smile

Imagine if you had to find a home (temporarily) for a cat like Newboy though. After two weeks, he's only just learning to tolerate the Creature from the Black Lagoon (Me). You'd not have a decent holiday ever. Grin

Someone wanted morning cuddles before his breakfast

Someone looks like he has just woken up and isn't a morning person ... Before breakfast? That's against the cat rules.

Ollivander84 · 20/07/2017 10:50

Ah his eye on the right as you look at the pic is one he's just had conjunctivitis in so a bit squinty! And yes, he often won't eat before cuddles
He's gone back to bed now while the human "goes to ride stupid horses and pet stable cat"

Pet stable cat - the same one we've already heard about??? You're a braver woman than me Grin.

Ollivander84 · 20/07/2017 14:54

Grin there isn't much choice. If you don't pick her up, she claws her way up to your shoulder. Much less blood drawn if I scoop her up Blush

Babycat does that Ollivander although I am hoping he'll grow out of it! He's starting to go for little supervise trips outside and they are hissing at and antagonising each other hopefully fairly playfully.... I accidentally left them not separate in the house when I popped out today - no blood was shed at least that I've found yet

caoraich · 20/07/2017 18:31

Crap photo as it was dark but the furballs were VERY cute this morning.

Now the older humans have left it seems we're pals again. That's good news Eliza - and Maisie was much the same with the clawing but less so now

EachandEveryone · 20/07/2017 20:03

There's been a massive fire down my street I hope my babies are ok

cozietoesie · 20/07/2017 20:14

Fingers crossed for everybody, Each.

EachandEveryone · 20/07/2017 20:23

Yes I hope I can home I dont know what's going on

cozietoesie · 20/07/2017 20:26

Have they a number for people to ring? There's often one given on the BBC.

Vinorosso74 · 20/07/2017 20:27

Oh no Each I hope everyone human and feline are ok.

EachandEveryone · 20/07/2017 20:30

I'm still at work

Vinorosso74 · 20/07/2017 20:32

God that reminded me there was a fire a few doors down from our vet and cattery two years ago. It started in a refrigeration store. Luckily all was ok but they started getting cats in carriers ready to evacuate.
Everything crossed for you.

cozietoesie · 20/07/2017 20:32

Is this the Edgware fire, Each?

EachandEveryone · 20/07/2017 20:34

How many times have I shown u all photos of my Daph around the back watching the mechanics? Well it's the same thing but accross the road from me

EachandEveryone · 20/07/2017 20:34

Yes cozie

cozietoesie · 20/07/2017 20:44

It sounds as if there's nothing you can deal with individually. They're still clearing out 'pockets of fire', I think. Stay at work and keep in touch with the situation by local radio. They're reducing the cordon hourly - talking about 'several hours' before they can let people back.

(Note - I don't know how recent that report was.)
