We were out of space so I thought I'd do the honours

Walter is trying extremely hard to kill me. I've never been tripped up by a cat so many times!

Oh Pelo and coaster 😹I’ve never seen such a full-on collapse from Ollie.

Prince jumped up to play - bit my arse, ran up to Havelock, bit his furry bum. We both went a bit middle aged and declined the offer.

He still claims he has nowhere to sleep in this house

Miss Mortie with her mouse 💕

That is one stoned kitty! Love her expression!

I wondered why the other thread was so quiet!

Looks like you now have a resident NMC @Supersimkin2 !

Speaking of NMC, has Paws returned now the weather is horrid @PeloDramatic ?

Mrs Grumpy currently has two cats. I have no cats. The world is unjust

DH and I visited my parents' kittens last night. The kittens are completely trusting. DH sat down on the floor and became a kitten climbing frame immediately. They sniffed him all over, played on him, had a wrestling match on his shoes and one of them was obsessed with his armpits! DH is not a pongy man for the record. The kitten climbed into him and stuffed his nose into DH's armpit and purred loudly while kneading him.

We're minding them for a weekend soon and DH will be a kitten magnet.

@Grumpyoldpersonwithcats that's known as "double-deckering" in our house (very rare occurrence)

nettie434 · 07/09/2022 21:45

Evening everyone!

Sorry about the 'frightful little scrote' too, PeloDramatic. I hope Ollie is being supportive.

I sent some Molly's Mice to 3 cats I know. They were very well received. I first read about them in a post of ToddlerTeaPlease's. She needs a CBE for services to feline happiness.

Your parents' kittens are lovely, TheLongRider and HouseofHolbein's cats in hats photo always cheers me up.

No Sad I'm thinking his humans might have moved

Catnip laffs from TK Maxx. Something tells me Havelock will choose the bottom
one.

Defiantlynot41 · 07/09/2022 23:32

Aah, but is it the good stuff @Supersimkin2 ? Still mourning the lack of a proper Culpepper replacement for catnip toys. Mollys Mice are very good though, DCat2 who is still not herself has been playing with hers this afternoon, after a gold star from the vet as she has put on weight and is almost 3kg now

LostCats · 08/09/2022 01:17

Ooh! I highly recommend Freak Meowt from Notonthehighstreet. We’ve been getting catnip toys from this company for years now and I must say it’s high grade stuff. Boone’s Christmas pudding is still going 9 months in! It has had to go into an old school sock of DS as it has had the life kicked out of it.

Supersimkin2 · 08/09/2022 03:38

It’s 330 and I’m posting to calm myself and Prince.

Havelock hid here while we both had cuddle and bed. He emerged at 3am, ate everything, and triggered a minor cardiac event in us both by smashing his considerable girth out through the bedroom window.

Poor little Prince very rattled, window useless, me staying awake as spooked.

Igmum · 08/09/2022 03:46

I'm awake too super and just had my first ever mouse delivery from this pair Hmm. No card with it but I suspect Malteser DGirlCat (Bug is a bit lazy).

Grumpyoldpersonwithcats · 08/09/2022 07:16

Ahhhh Culpeper's mice (disappears in cloud of stoned cat nostalgia).
They were the best, but Molly's mice are the closest we've found (from a tip here by Toddler I think).
Does anyone have a recommendation for valerian cat toys - thought I'd try mine on those too?

Allergictoironing · 08/09/2022 07:28

Lana was it the thunderstorms setting Havelock off? They were bad enough down here that Boycat went into his old "panic, hide & don't come out for hours" mode, first time in about 5 years. He didn't even join Girlcat for "half an hour after lights out" zoomies!

Whole sky lit up, flashes coming through the curtains, rumbling like an earthquake right overhead - can't blame the poor thing 😥

YetAnotherSpartacus · 08/09/2022 09:41

My girl cat tries to catch the lightning which probably tells you all you need to know about her.

Mind you, she hides from visitors whereas boy cat flirts shamelessly. I think that in his mind human=food delivery.

NEWSFLASH
Molly's mice on massive sale - you need to add £4.50 p+p but if you buy a few of them...

I've ordered quite a few 😁

Beaverlac · 08/09/2022 11:40

@Grumpyoldpersonwithcats Thank you!

Supersimkin2 · 08/09/2022 12:35

Genius Grumpy! I’ve gone wholesale with my order but left a few for others.

if anyone’s at work or too busy to order but reading this, I’ve got a crate coming with any luck and can send on to you.

Poor little Havelock was waiting in the rain and storm outside the back door when I got up just now. I’ve forgiven him. He might just qualify for a Mouse.

Supersimkin2 · 08/09/2022 12:56

@Igmum that was an even worse reason to be awake but well done the fearsome hunters!

Allergic and Spart you’re so right - I think the weather and lack of NDN freaked H
out. He’s ok now, just had a snack and a cuddle. He tottered round the sitting room firmly scenting all the furniture and went out with Prince.
