Your cat's favourite baked potato filling - testers here

Come one, come all to the Olli et al. appreciation thread.

Mr C has started wheezing again. Give me strength.

On the upside, might see Nurse Lee tomorrow. Not in my skimpy lace nightie, Spart (good plan tho ).

Ham in bed for breakfast is a life goal that I completely support!

I hope Mr. C is as well as can be expected. My own fluffy idiot had several teeth removed yesterday and I got snuffly purring when I brought him home again. He still has most of his fangs and he's fine, he tried to eat other mog's cat biscuits.

"Where is man hooman? You rubbish"

You are his first and best love, mate. Like it or not. Look at that face.

I'm trying M&S Gastropub gammon shank to get the steroid in. £7.

Looking promising - just caught my ancient, pitifully frail pet taking a break from struggling with his most delicate health jump jet onto the counter for the wrapper,

Didn't even have to be lifted down afterwards with wrapper in jaws.

Ollie is finishing off some cottage pie
9/10 kitty rating, would be better with more butter

Everything is improved by more butter!

I'm sure Ollie has settled for snuggling with his human. You'll do until new man waltzes back in to his life.

He's too busy howling. We are back at that stage again where he howls ALL night
I think partly it's him wanting to go out and he does seem to go through phases of this but it's been weeks and weeks now

Do earplugs work? One of mine has a meowl (meow + howl) that would wake the dead and he can be quite persistent, so I feel your pain.

We do have a cat flap but the little shit howls outside.

Reasons for meowling include but are not limited to the following:-

He lost a fight with his best mate
He won a fight with his best mate
He caught some small creature
He didn't catch a small creature
The moon looked at him crooked
The wind blew his fur the wrong way

Insert whatever reason you like...

No. Can you lift him and cuddle him? The lifting is just annoying enough to put him off a repeat performance, the cuddling is nice for all.

He won't be lifted. Tried cuddling. He will sleep on me for 5 mins and then wander off and start howling again

Oh honestly Olli. Earplugs or headphones it is.

I've started him on a supplement in case it helps

New man "do you want another cat?"
Me "can you be slightly more specific?"

That sounds like a strange form of proposal.

There is an Irish saying round my parts of "Would you like to be buried with my people?" Apparently my Dad proposed to my slightly shocked English mother this way, she took him up on the offer!

Man "it's a stray. It's cute" < sends photo >
See? Fang wants a friend

Me

Do you think Olli does want a friend? Cozie always told me not to give Mr C company & she was dead right as always.

How on earth are you going to find time for a human relationship with two sets of petcare on the go?! You'll be run ragged. Suggest New Man may have to help

Remember there's Fred and Ginge too, who are dependents. And presumably a horse somewhere in the picture...

Yes, the horse is more trouble the older she gets

Ollie is whinging about the weather. Too wet, too windy
New man last night "has he been fed? Did you brush him? Want me to feed him?"
Me

Have you much experience looking after Ollie?

Fluffy Ollie is still all "MA new favourite hoooooman" at him

Flipping cheek of cats. Talk about not knowing which side your breads buttered on.

I know. He keeps clambering on his knee and doing big eyed stares at him. New man "less demanding than the Maine coon was, and he's beautiful with his fang"

🙄

I know the feeling - my mum is coming to stay at the end of the month and I will cease to exist for the duration. Dad's dropping her off so there will be much tuna love occurring (they split a tin. He has a sandwich and Weezolcat gets the rest).

I am nothing compared to Grandmiaow and Grandpaw. Nothing.

Less demanding? Bwa ha ha New Man, you ain't seen 0 yet.

I get you W, my parents shove past me screaming give us our lunch and where is that darling little cat...Mr C loves it, He does have the decency to favour Me Above All Others even when we are entertaining, however, most gratifying.

I can't get his steroid down for love nor money. The wheezing could wake the dead. Am going to get him an injection next week.
