Matt is The Best Grin

We have a cat shelf above the radiator in the kitchen. It's well used by fluffy boycat. It just clamps onto the window board, no screws. I bought it in Lidl.

Oh, I will look for one of those,TheLongRider!

QueenPaw · 22/02/2021 23:34

I'm not buying one of those. Paws will move in Grin

LongRider - you have a Dali Cat there!

Would it really be a bad thing if Paws moved in Queen? Really truly?

TheLongRider · 23/02/2021 02:41

They turn up every so often as part of Lidl's pet week. I paid €9.99, it's only a piece of chipboard with a fluffy cover.

I was trying to do frugal February. Was doing really well (apart from a Bob Ross mug for my mom) but this week I’ve ordered a new cat tree and 3 tilted cat bowls 😊 bloody spoiled animals 😂😂

Supersimkin2 · 23/02/2021 09:11

Money could not be better spent - pet essentials, I say.

YetAnotherSpartacus · 23/02/2021 09:48

I made a travelling box for Capn do I can roll it into the sun for him

Truly genius. And you are truly under the paw!

Matt is truly divine. I just want to smooch him.

And Queen - you'd need two radiator beds - one for each of your cats.

Snorg actually has a face! It's difficult to see sometimes.

So I'm sitting in the living room, Basil on my lap, Sybil on a seat, Lenny (still in lockdown) sitting by the patio doors and Karl is outside somewhere.
I hear miaowing outside, so dump Basil to see what's going on.
TC is guarding the Barbeque, so I go outside to rescue Karl from under it.

There is a kerfuffle from under the barbeque and I see Karl leap out and leg it down the side of the house pursued by TC.
Except the real Karl then appears from under the barbeque, perfectly relaxed & happy to see me.
I don't think I can cope with a fourth black cat in the neighbourhood imitating mine Shock

YetAnotherSpartacus · 23/02/2021 11:03

TC the rescuing hero! :) :)

Papergirl1968 · 23/02/2021 11:05

That’s hilarious, Grumpy! Grin

nettie434 · 23/02/2021 11:24

Whoever Faux Karl is, he or she is certainly pretty brave to stand up to TC. Yet another sign that TC believes Grumpy's house is just part of his domain.

I've come out to the dentist. Ollie "but but you live at HOME now? Don't leave me" Hmm

Grumpyoldpersonwithcats · 23/02/2021 15:30

I've come out to the dentist

Should you be posting under 'relationships'? Grin

QueenPaw · 23/02/2021 17:15

@Grumpyoldpersonwithcats Grin confessing all my sins to him cake and chocolate

@QueenPaw

I've come out to the dentist. Ollie "but but you live at HOME now? Don't leave me" Hmm
Don't I know that feeling! Been working properly for over 2 weeks now, & Boycat has only just stopped following me round the house all morning before work crying pathetically.
Fluffycloudland77 · 23/02/2021 18:43

Tbh no hcp would be surprised at what patients say or do.

It’s not that we condone what we’ve been told we’ve just lost the capacity to be shocked. I had a patient tell me his ejaculate came out stone cold.

Didn’t ask for proof. His wife confirmed it so that’s good enough for me.

QueenPaw · 23/02/2021 18:46

I didn't have much time for confessions as he was too busy reshaping/filing/doing something to my teeth. I told him a front one was chipped and he muttered something about feminine lateral incisors Confused and I came out with brand new shape teeth. Ollie doesn't have this issue

Also endured the hygienist with her pointy scrape stabby thing. Ow

I’m researching cat activity centres well really cat sleeping/lording it over the plebs towers. The overlords have wrecked the other one, ginger cat’s bottom hangs over the edges. Looking for a floor to ceiling one, any recommendations welcome?

Fluffycloudland77 · 23/02/2021 21:36

You can get ones aimed towards the Maine coon size cats if he’s a big cat.

Some are so flimsy, if they’ve got hollow bits you can put sandbags in to weigh them down.

sweetkitty · 23/02/2021 23:35

I’ve been looking at the Maine Coon ones, another trick they use is to use kittens in the photos to make the trees look bigger. My lot aren’t particularly big, two are 5kg apiece but ginger boy can’t get his body comfy to sleep and has broke it all. I want one that lasts longer than 18 months!

QueenPaw · 23/02/2021 23:42

I bought a giant cat tree. Ollie claims vertigo if it's over a foot from the floor Hmm
Local cat charity very happy

sweetkitty · 24/02/2021 00:07

@QueenPaw don’t think that would happen in this house my lot are regularly found sitting on top of the doors. I am not surprised thought typical cat
