Super maybe you need to have a look at one.... super needy, mega demanding, very temperamental.... you'd love it!

YesQueen · 04/10/2019 20:57

Munch is nutritionally oriented - ideal for the pre-trained human Grin

Yes you must be skint with the extra fanged mouth to feed. My yellow-sticker skillz can be transferred.

Allergictoironing · 04/10/2019 21:15

Not to where I live they can't Lana. Typical Asda yellow sticker at my local branch is 20% off max Sad. Sainsbury & Morrisons no better, and I refuse to go all the way to Bluewater to see if there's anything decent in M&S.

@YesQueen there's a Facebook page? How does Munch's owner feel about all of this? My boys (feline variety) are being needy again...like my human boys who are ALWAYS needy. Mummy is worn out!

YesQueen · 04/10/2019 22:05

Yellow-sticker is a fine art - you need the nose of the reptilian predator and the elbows of Usain Bolt. It can be a bore, tho I says it myself; on no-reductions day you've got to decide what to eat rather than just grab the reduced packet. I get taken by surprise and stand in the aisle all gormless for hours Grin

I have researched Savannahs - oh how lucky you are. They're described as 'probably not a first cat', 'sensitive', and 'spirited'. Not sure they would fancy the urban jungle. When the time is right, the right mog will arrive.

Good morning humans. First time I have tested the soft furnishings. Seems comfy

So has Paws/Munch moved in or what?

YesQueen · 05/10/2019 08:31

No, he still just visits. But definitely more often, he comes in 4 times a day sometimes now HmmGrin

Darling Munch, he has a real home now.

I say Yes, what a superb decorating touch you've got. All that tone on tone, lovely.

YesQueen · 05/10/2019 09:51

I do like doing interior stuff! Going to be changing the blinds next year all through the place as they're 11 years old now and had a decent lifespan
Love grey but not all grey so this is the living room and bedroom

It's LOVELY. Fantastic mood you've created there, madam. Cameras kill grey but not this one, it's great.

Sage wall a stroke of genius.

The colours match you ie your colouring. And Ollie's fur of course.

My blind confession: I have optic white blinds and get them replaced cheap off ebay every year. So they stay white. £30.00 made to measure. It's a London thing, the grime turns everything sooty if you don't. Makes the rest of the room look clean Grin

Lovely and tidy, unlike mine. I just cannot seem to keep on top of paperwork and laundry.
I’m finding feeding two cats is costing a fortune too. Socks is always hungry. She seems to eat more than Matt but it’s hard to tell as he eats quicker and then shoves her out of the way to finish off hers. She’s always begging for food but seems to play with it especially if it’s meat or chicken. She’ll scoop it out of the bowl, carry it around, toss it in the air, pat it and sometimes drop it in someone’s shoe before fishing it out and carrying on. It must be very dirty by the time she actually eats it...Confused
She’s been a pest in the night by keep diving on my feet, and by licking my hand. A couple of licks I don’t mind but this was a thorough wash - possibly because she could smell the chicken crisps I had last night.
She’s currently playing with a toy mouse.

I'm full of a cold, Ollie is raging that my coughing is stopping him cuddling me. Ordered some Tom yum soup as a cure

Is there no end to ollies suffering?. I’m fighting a cold off, I will not be ill when the flu jabs available next week.

I have ordered leopard print, asbo always gives leopard print a wide berth.

Supersimkin2 · 05/10/2019 19:39

Leopard print what?

YesQueen · 05/10/2019 19:40

Suffering GrinGrin he's the picture of suffering on his real sheepskin, belly bulging with food and snoring away

Ankle boots. I had ultravoxs Vienna on Spotify while browsing to inspire me. I loved the 80’s.

Supersimkin2 · 05/10/2019 19:43
  • bias slip skirt (pls let it be this)
  • savannah kitten (ditto for asbo)
  • cushions
  • shirt
  • duvet cover (wink wink)
  • coat (always)
Supersimkin2 · 05/10/2019 20:10

Yeessssss I forgot those. Well done. Mine got moth btw, it's the cowhair. Bet yours look lovely.

I have rampant trainer anxiety from being surrounded by cool urban teenagers at OFSTED outstanding local college, St Stab's. I am fat and 50 but still I check the boys' feet anxiously at the bus stop in case my trainers are a) dowdy b) mummy c) the most shameful option - too similar to theirs, try-hard mutton etc. Round here it's Vejas and Air Max with Vans. The police guards outside the school gates do it too.

coastergirl · 05/10/2019 21:17

Synchronised cats. The latest in feline fashion.
