Onwards and upwards for the denizens of the Litter Tray. Best of luck to all job-hunting, cat-mourning, Paws-swiping posters. I can't do a proper link to the old thread.

New boy cat arrives on Friday, a one-year old tabby boy currently under the moniker of "Bobby". I don't have a proper picture yet.

@Papergirl1968 both of the fluffy ones have amazing tails 🙂

Supersimkin2 · 28/11/2019 22:47

How's the bonkbusting marathon going at yours @Papergirl1968? They must be shattered, the both of them.

Papergirl1968 · 28/11/2019 23:41

We’re all shattered, Lana!
I think (I hope) Socks is coming to the end of it. I don’t think they’ve been quite as bad today.
I managed to get her to take some of the medication prescribed for the urinary tract inflammation today too. I mean, it can’t help when you’ve got sore bits having Matt bumping and grinding away, can it? But still the little minx comes back for more so 🤷🏼‍♀️
How is his lordship?

I thought of you lying there in the night, exhausted, staring at the dark ceiling, kept awake by a sex mad kitten :)

There's nothing like that 3am optimistic feeling is there :) try and have a daytime nap, look after yourself, it's the only way.

Little K has spat his first ever pill out! so proud Grin Has been on bed for dreamies and is now chewing the strings of my best top, rolling around fatly Grin

Papergirl1968 · 29/11/2019 11:22

We had a better night. A bit of shagging when we went to bed, then they both went to sleep. And so far this morning all ok!
Can you shove that pill inside a Dreamie?

Supersimkin2 · 29/11/2019 12:00

He's had it in a Gourmet.

Papergirl1968 · 29/11/2019 16:43

Glad to hear it - we have to be sneaky about these things. Wink
Just booked Socks in for neutering - Wednesday 11th.

Supersimkin2 · 29/11/2019 18:56

well done, life will be sooooo much easier :)

Got Little K a Little Packet of ham for his pill. They do kitten-size in Sainsbury's,

swampytiggaa · 29/11/2019 20:22

My idiot cats today.

Glad (not so) Little K is taking the tablets! And I hope Socks calms down before her lady snip 😂😂

Oh those are the sweetest pics. Whoever thought Ollie would make a fine hunter?

I think he's having a fine time.

Supersimkin2 · 30/11/2019 09:11

1: 15 am. Light out, tinkly feather finally laid down.
1:16 tinkly feather starts moving on its own. Take that, lazy pink 2-leg monster!!!!
8am: after an hour's kip, pink monster has its petrol for the fire breathing I am waiting for from the pod machine. I show it tinkly feather politely and it says a bad word. Ignorant, see.
8:01: pink monster has the flipping impertinence to find me where I have fallen over behind the wardrobe.
820am: I hiss bravely and escape. Foiled again Pinky Kitten Eater!

New boy cat is here. According to his foster family he is totally bombproof and I concur with that description!

He strolled out of the catbox, took in his surroundings, had a wee and a poo in the litter tray, found the best catnip toy and made himself thoroughly at home within 90 minutes.

The others are not overly impressed, there's been a bit of growling but he's quite good at backing down. He's been chirruping at BossCat to play and the matter is under consideration. Girlcat has turned up her nose, but she does that to everyone and everything. Nervous Cat is uncertain but hopeful.

Oh my that IS a handsome cat! Love the spots on his shoulders in contrast to the stripes everywhere else.

ClientListQueen · 30/11/2019 11:45

I may have purchased a new top

He’s beautiful, longrider.
Matt was the same, took everything in his stride. None of this needing to be confined to one room or hiding for the first few days lark.
Socks on the other hand still hides when someone calls.

YesItsMeIDontCare · 30/11/2019 12:23

OK @ClientListQueen - where did you get it from? I need one.

ClientListQueen · 30/11/2019 12:28

@YesItsMeIDontCare it's from Killstar!

Supersimkin2 · 30/11/2019 12:30

I'm self-gifting.

Supersimkin2 · 30/11/2019 12:30

@TheLongRider he is utterly gorgeous.

TheLongRider · 30/11/2019 12:43

He's very fond of tinkly feather too! Currently plonked beside DD.

We got him yesterday and we have to keep him in for several weeks. It's not usually a problem in winter but I was woken at 06:30 this morning by one of the older cats battering the cat flap. I came downstairs and released the older mogs. I also found an enormous furball as a nice present. Luckily the robovac hadn't kicked in or else I have been scraping furball out of its wheels. 🤢

He narrates everything so far. He's only quiet when dozing or sleeping.

Ollie is turning. He has smacked paws, then asked for kisses
Paws "WTF Ollie, no"
And then brought me a butterfly (alive)
Where on earth do you find a butterfly in November? Confused

YesItsMeIDontCare · 30/11/2019 13:45

OK Queen, I've just spent over £50 on stuff I don't need but couldn't possibly live without at Killstar. I hold you fully responsible.

ClientListQueen · 30/11/2019 13:52

Oops
I also got the "your soul was delicious" top

YesItsMeIDontCare · 30/11/2019 14:01

I soooo nearly got that one! As it stands I got the cropped top version of the plans with my cat, the waist cincher and the Karma bag. (Birthday money. Honest. Not bills money. Well....)
