Sounds like he's landed on his paws Super. I can't wait to hear more about him.

Of course you miss Cap'n like crazy. He's part of you. You gave him the best life. The few weeks after I lost Bertie were horrendous. We love them so much and it's heartbreaking when we lose them.

Defiantlynot41 · 15/06/2022 02:47

@coastergirl is 100% correct. Lana you have done a lovely thing for Prince but it's too hard to think of him in the same way as Cap'n.

We are still grieving our 20 year old boy 7 years after we said goodbye, even though we've had 2 gorgeous much loved girls for the past 15 years

Thinking of you xx

Two cats who are too hot.

Prince is going to take a while to adjust anyway, his owner is all he’s known and now he’s moved house. It’s stressful for them, Puddy was great at first and then had a wobble when she realised her dad wasn’t coming back Sad

On Sunday it was 3 years since we brought the idiot sisters home 💕 these came up on my fb memories today.

Lovely girls 💕

Supersimkin2 · 15/06/2022 22:27

Congratulations 🥳 darling sisters x3, living proof that good news comes in threes.

Prince has now rejected a) ham b) tuna c) sardines d) pate.

Havelock’s put on 0.5 kg in a week. I put NDNs reaction down to the unexpected heatwave.

Supersimkin2 · 15/06/2022 22:40

Not fat.

They ARE lovely HouseofHolbein. I particularly love the photos you posted of them as kittens in their cat tree and then sprawling over the edge of it as adults.

Has Havelock been taking advantage of Prince's disdain for luxury cat cuisine Supersimkin2?

Fluffycloudland77 · 16/06/2022 09:47

Aww, didn’t they come with a lifetime ban from unaccompanied trips to rescue centres too @HouseofHolbein ?

Dh have his ice cream dish to Puddy to lick out. He will never eat anything on his from a bowl again now. She’s discovered ice cream and she’s not going back.

HouseofHolbein · 16/06/2022 10:00

Here they are after 3 days with us and a year and 3 days with us 💕

Love the before and after pics.
Could you put the windowsill photo in the thread please. It's one of my all time favourite cat pics (and mine never line up like that...)

MsOllie · 16/06/2022 13:07

Ollie is being a good cat nurse. My mum had early onset Alzheimer's and developed pneumonia, she died last night with me there

Oh my darling girl, I am so terribly sorry. What a huge loss for you. How hard to be there, but how your mother would have appreciated it.

Go to bed and try and eat something. We are here chatting cat as usual
if you want owt. Best wishes to your dad too.

Megahug to you and Ollie. Try and get some rest now, your job is done.

Supersimkin2 · 16/06/2022 13:46

Wherever she is now, your mum must be so bloody proud of you.

HouseofHolbein · 16/06/2022 13:46

Lots of love to you @MsOllie 💕 hope Ollie and pawpaws are able to look after you

Grumpyoldpersonwithcats · 16/06/2022 13:48

@MsOllie
Very sorry for your loss. I'm sure that you being there will have been of comfort to your mum.

Bugger it didn't add. Let me try again

TheLongRider · 16/06/2022 13:52

I'm so sorry Ollie. Flowers

coastergirl · 16/06/2022 14:04

I'm so sorry Queen. As usual Lana has the perfect words. Lots of love.

Guiltypleasures001 · 16/06/2022 15:42

My thoughts are with you Queen so sorry lovely xx

YesItsMeIDontCare · 16/06/2022 15:47

I'm sorry to hear that Queen. Allow yourself time and be kind to yourself.

Sending you love and (((hugs))) 💐

Fluffycloudland77 · 16/06/2022 18:05

I'm sorry @MsOllie, it's not easy losing someone & it sounds very unexpected too. Ollie looks grimly determined to pull you through.
