Leroy got a visit from the Amazon man. No treats but the box was good enough.

You feeling ok now, Lana?

No I’m sodding not. Everything hurts and I’m moaning like a dinosaur in labour when it comes to Getting Off The Sofa. I am 53 FFS, shameful.

Tests back imminently so it’s looking up.

Between ourselves I managed a full meal twice, so may make it to the morning.

(Little weak cough, eyes raised heavenward)

Thanks for asking.

@Supersimkin2 I make the same noise and I'm 36 😂 although in my defence I have a weird nerve damage condition going on that means I'm in a wheelchair most of the time so standing up is an effort.

Betsy sends you some gentle head bumps ❤️

I think Tom is defective. He has no interest in boxes at all.

Good luck for your test results super.

Her toe floofs are so long!

@Fluffycloudland77

Her toe floofs are so long!

I know right!!

I'll try get a better pic today as you can't actually see how insane they are there!

I just wish she would let me touch them 😂

Boychild had to retrieve Gomez from next doors living room yesterday 😂😂 Alexandra had left the window unlatched so she pushed it open climbed onto next doors garage extension then through their living room window. Then she sat hissing at him when he tried to get her 😭😭

Little sod. She’d wanted to come to running with me and I wouldn’t let her 😂😂

We had that once with Ivy 😂

Random text message from next door neighbour "erm do you think you could come and retrieve Ivy from my bed please? She's swiping at me every time I try to move her"

Little sods indeed!

Paws is staring in the hedge. Ollie has gone to check what's going on. Neighbourhood watch patrol

@Fluffycloudland77 I sneaked toe tufts pics while she was sleeping 🥰

Legend 😃

@swampytiggaa and @cricketmum84 just

Betsy has the most extravagant whiskers too @cricketmum84

@Defiantly41 she totally does! We call her walrus cat lol! And also squirrel cat as her tail is so fluffy 😂

I'm really sorry to hear that, Lana. I hope they find out what's wrong and fix it.
Betsy is beautiful.
Matt would like to join Ollie and Paws' Neighbourhood Watch please. He is too lazy to go out on pawtrol but is very good at nosing out of the window.

Ollie says Matt can join him. There's a spot on the windowsill where he can sit and help keep stinky paw paws outside
Also if you crane your neck REALLY HARD then you can spy for dawgs

Deal! He'll take Dreamies as wages.

They're discussing payment

Luckily they're not very easy to open, even by your double act, Queen.
Two of our kitchen cupboard doors have recently come off their hinges. This means that Matt can hop on to the work surface, stand on his back legs, and use his front paws to search for and pull out a bag of Dreamies, which he then holds in his mouth and jumps down to the floor.
I have retrieved several saliva soaked but intact bags recently. He gets some treats anyway for being so clever and sweet so it's a win-win for him!

I am laughing at the idea of Ollie interviewing Matt for a job as his assistant!

Sorry you are still in pain supersimkin2. Hope the test results are ok.

Betsy is lovely, cricketmum84. Fantastic whiskers!

Just spotted Ollie sprinting after a black and white cat. I've told him it's not Pokémon go

@Papergirl1968 my terrible twosome seem to manage! It's quite funny to watch actually as Betsy sits at the kitchen door to act as the lookout while ivy paws open the cupboard and pulls the dreamies out. They work together to bite through the bag 😂

The number of times I've come downstairs to a half chewed empty dreamies bag!!

I'm sat at my desk today by the living room window and just watch ivy scamper all the way up a tree to try catch her second breakfast! Thankfully all birds remain unharmed. Betsy outright refuses to go outside. She tried a couple of weeks ago but had an absolute panic and kept trying to jump back in the window but slipping off the windowsill! She hasn't tried since but I do catch her watching Ivy playing out. I think she has just decided to be a house at.

All the best Lana. I am so sorry that your parents were so uncaring - especially because I recall that they help others in need and you have assisted them from time to time. That's awful :(

Thanks, meh, they've got problems..

Magnificent Matt!
