I don't think anyone's begun a new thread yet?

Hope you don't mind Cozie. Smile Newboy's Fairy God(cat)mothers love hearing about his progress.

Snuggling. Smile

Ollivander84 · 19/11/2017 00:44

I'm looking forward to seeing the new yard kittens tomorrow. Hoping they're settling in ok

Lanaorana2 · 19/11/2017 20:36

Gor blimey, catch a load of that total sweetness.

Mr C has thieved dreamies and is currently resting pre-vet.

Ollivander84 · 19/11/2017 20:39

Yard kittens are settling! Ginger girl is the nervy one, black and white boy is scoffing ALL THE FOOD and blinking at me

cozietoesie · 19/11/2017 20:50

How van he thieve Dreamies? Grin Don’t you have them in a sealed tin? Wink

cozietoesie · 19/11/2017 21:19

Newboy is feeling guilty about something and I can’t find out what he’s done. So he’s either sprayed - and I can’t see it - or he’s misinterpreted some action as a SIN. Grin

cozietoesie · 19/11/2017 21:20

can

Fluffycloudland77 · 19/11/2017 21:21

Have you got a black light?

cozietoesie · 19/11/2017 22:29

Yep.

Lanaorana2 · 19/11/2017 23:05

Yes the Xmas funtimez tin has been brought into action but this was the overflow, neatly sealed and hidden. He waited till I went out as he is so well mannered.

I'm still worried about him, his fur smells ill. Breath and bum ok.

Is it pee? Like one has to ask. Grin

cozietoesie · 19/11/2017 23:15

Poor Mr C. Sad

I don’t know whether it’s pee yet. I’m just treating him as normal right now.

Lanaorana2 · 20/11/2017 10:04

Good news from vet - they're going to try Mr C on alternative arthritis meds. Nurse agrees he 'smells funny'. Off to buy ham, full price, as a reward.

Reward for cat, nurse deserves crate of vodka.

Lanaorana2 · 20/11/2017 13:11

Bad news from vet - they want to try the old pain meds again. Apart from that...

Mr C's weight is stable!!!!!

We both tried not to look too surprised and maintained a certain elegant dignity too when the 'fur odour' was discussed and dismissed, phew.

How is Newboy? Is the Scent of Exotic Mystery revealed yet??

cozietoesie · 20/11/2017 13:46

Afraid not. He’s being very douce though.

cozietoesie · 20/11/2017 13:47

And Mr C’s weight is stable? How can this be?

Lanaorana2 · 20/11/2017 14:04

I suspect his recent pattern of bingeing then taking a day off might be it.

He does go beserk for say, Shebas, then meh, mad for Gourmet, meh, frenzied re expensive foods from Amazon, meh, etc.

He's doing the 5:2, basikerly.

At the moment he is bravely monitoring the 7-story high tower crane at the end of the garden. In case it steals his Exigence biscuits.

cozietoesie · 20/11/2017 14:20

Maybe so. Smile I was just concerned about the combination of ‘smelling’ and not gaining weight at all. (Which latter is without precedent, I think?)

Lanaorana2 · 20/11/2017 14:52

Once he lost.......50 grammes!!! Obviously I panicked and it was shredded poached organic chicken from then on. He is still pretty hefty.

I've booked him in for Feb but I will keep a good eye on him. He's in a really good mood today, the supplements are working and living in a demolition zone evidently suits.

cozietoesie · 20/11/2017 14:58

Good for him, then. Smile

Ollivander84 · 20/11/2017 15:10

Ollie on guard at the window in case not my cat with balls appears again

Lanaorana2 · 20/11/2017 17:06

Has Paws got festive baubles??

Ollivander84 · 20/11/2017 19:16

No, new not my cat has Hmm
Fondly known as "car cat". I opened my car door at home, it launched in and started kneading me. Then I found it in my spare room the other day

cozietoesie · 20/11/2017 19:27

Ah. So Paws is a ‘He’ - as in ‘his home’? Grin
