Oh god that’s awful.

All the best to your new arrival, Just. I hope that Charlie is sorted soon too and that Dave's flu is quickly cured (is it true that they never quite shake the virus?) too.

Thanks for all the advice and good wishes for Dave. His eyes look really good today and he has stopped the excessive licking.

Just that's awful. The poor kitty. I can't understand how people can be so cruel to animals.

Fluffy your vet sounds hilarious.

Dave's favourite sleeping position and a pic of his little face.

Dave is a rare and splendid beauty.

She was long suffering & carries cats like rugby balls.

Poor Daves little face.

Puddys got a scab on her back paw, I’m thinking fleas but can’t find flea dirt on her white bits and she’s pissed off with me searching through her fur.

There is a proper batshit thread going on at the moment about equestrian events. It's gone completely mental.

Apparently now cat owners are abusive to animals because we take them to the vets and feed them food they don't like.

Was like..... sorry what now???

Yeah - Lana shoves food down Cap'n V's throat that he hates - ditto Not with Ollie ...

But how did they start with horses and end with cats?

Although I'd love a Ginge and Fred update if there was one!

Lol I have no idea! It escalated very quickly into an animal cruelty discussion!!

Judging by the way Ivy and Betsy practically mug DH for food I'm going to guess they enjoy their Iams...

Thanks for the tip - that thread is priceless. 'Cat circuses' .

Meanwhile I've been clearing down my bloated (full) hotmail account and came across a photo of Basil that a friend sent me in May 2011. He was already good at the dirty look as a kitten .

Awww baby basil 🥰🥰🥰

There is something about the beard that says 'old man kitten'.

They'd included some baby Sybil pictures too

Oh yes, the close-up shows a future 'don't mess with me' kitty!

Here you go @Supersimkin2 - this is where my family tree is up to

Oh that's so cute, I hadn't realised Basil had bat ancestry

From now on whenever Ollie eats some baked potato, I hope you tell him that if it hadn't been for your ancestor, Walt, there would be no potatoes in the UK!

The photos of Basil and Sybil as kittens are splendid, Grumpy.

YetAnotherSpartacus, my friends think their cat does seem to have a residual cough from the cat flu but it's not serious.

Oh, wee Basil and Sybil! They were adorable.

I would love to see a photograph of TC as a kitten. I'll bet he was fierce even then.

[Melts] ..... those EARS! And the innocent, slightly scared expression. What a little cutie!

✔️ Grumpy For indulging our wish to see TC as a kitten

✖️ For the the next time you post about TC attacking you and all you get are replies saying 'Nonsense, TC is a dear little kitty'

That's all he gets anyway!

Thank you, @Grumpyoldpersonwithcats. TC was an adorable kitten. No sign of things to come, at all.

@YetAnotherSpartacus

That's all he gets anyway!

True!

And rightfully so, may I add.

The big boy has to go to the vet . Normally he gets over the rhinitis flares but this one just isn't going and I'm scared he's got cat flu
