Marathon achievement, they must love you to bits now @swampytiggaa. Tuesday will be just lovely.

I did 250 kilos of rags today in three hours. Had to rush back to give Capn his early tea. Even tho as I got in I could hear familiar snoring echoing round the premises, he still managed to make it to the kitchen, all wobbling and blinky, before I got my coat off.

So proud :)

Oh they’ll love me up until they decide they’re saving money again and putting us down to contract hours for a couple of months ☹️ Then I’ll be on 12 hours a week and wondering how to pay the mortgage ☹️

Off to bed now no cats in my bedroom tonight 👍

I have one in mine. On the windowsill. Behind my head. Snoring. Loudly.

Good job I've got some reading to do.

I just miaowed at Ollie. His eyes nearly popped out his head and now he's staring suspiciously at me BlushGrin

@Supersimkin2

Sensible girl.

DH is booked as guest artiste on The Litter Tray All Time Cat Classics of All Time album for Crimbles. He better carry on practicing. We are.

I love this Supersimkin2! I hope the album will include all the specially adapted songs for cats that are sung to Litter Tray cats

You have my sympathies @swampytiggaa I'm the same at the moment with work. 70 hours last week! At least they are paying me for the extra hours though. I finally managed to recruit an assistant who is starting September so I've only got august payroll to get through alone now :)

Now the weather has cooled down the normal crazy cat antics have resumed in the cricket house. Ivy and Betsy spend all morning taking it in turns to chase each other from the living room to the kitchen and back. Ivy has taken to being a dirty stop out and won't come in on a night!! I always worry about her when she is out all night.

Bless Ollie. He thinks Mama has learned to talk Cat! Grin

You probably mispronounced the meow and inadvertently said something really dodgy 😂
cricketmum84 · 26/07/2021 07:49

Yep! 😂😂😂

Miaoooow = fancy a dreamie?

Meeoooow = we are getting a dog!

NotMyCat · 26/07/2021 10:59

Poor Ollie Grin he came in with a leaf stuck in his eye this morning and shoved his head in my face "fix it mama" then went back out to ma bush

NotMyCat · 26/07/2021 19:44

Paws! Your visits to the thread are far too infrequent lately.

NotMyCat · 26/07/2021 19:51

Two weeks since I've seen him! He's gone very feral, I can have one stroke but he jumps when I do it and doesn't want to stay. Too busy partying

YesItsMeIDontCare · 26/07/2021 21:13

Toe floofs 🥰

Murder mittens with an extra serving of fur.

JomeeSot · 26/07/2021 21:21

Omg I really want to kidnap Puddy and Paws.
All the other overlords are beautiful too Smile

cricketmum84 · 26/07/2021 21:26

@YesItsMeIDontCare Betsy still wins on toe floofs 😂😂

She keeps going missing today. We have an electrician and landscape gardeners in and out of the house and she is absolutely petrified of anyone new. She hid under one of the beds earlier. It took us hours to find her. I was so worried!

@cricketmum84 - you're not wrong, but I don't get to give Betsy's toe floofs kisses so Leroy's are specialler. 😁

Betsy's could certainly rival Harley's toes floofs (he was my old chap, now at Rainbow Bridge). I'm sure he used to bounce rather than walk 😂.

cricketmum84 · 27/07/2021 05:58

I don't get to give her toe floofs kisses either 😢. Anywhere except head, behind ears and under chin gets a quick swipe and a hiss.

Ivy will let you do anything to her though. Literally anything. I could kiss her paws all day!!

Fluffycloudland77 · 27/07/2021 08:21

It wouldn’t be fair if she let Yes kiss them but not you.

cricketmum84 · 27/07/2021 08:31

Why do cats always decide to attach them selves to the one person in the house who doesn't really like cats?? (Yeah right DH!!!)

Every time he leaves the room she searches for him whilst chirruping! He left for work half an hour ago and she is sat at the window chirruping for him to please come home!

Although she will be hiding soon as workmen are back today.

The kittens passed their pre op checks pre neutering. In good health and no sign of fleas! So proud of them.

Aw bless them 🥰🥰 is it neutering day today? I was in a state all day when ivy and Betsy went for theirs! Didn't relax until they called to say they had come round and all had gone well!
Twokitstwokats · 27/07/2021 08:47

They are a boy and a girl, booked in for Weds next week.
