Ooh. I like your kitchen.

Thank you 🙂 That photo makes it look better than it does in real life though! It needs at least another coat of paint. My sister and friend both hate the blue cause it doesn't go with anything (as well as black and grey tiles, I have an original quarry tiled floor) but I don't care.

You’re both gorgeous 😀 a pic to warm the very cockles of the heart. Darling Matt such a cuddle bug at heart.

You look almost inappropriately fresh and glowy Paper. Keep resting up.

Papergirl1968 · 01/03/2023 22:14

Thanks everyone. Certainly feeling a heck of a lot better than this time last week!

Supersimkin2 · 02/03/2023 10:36

Woke up trod in sick, the cat lover’s traditional rise ‘n’ shine. Prince seems ok tho - might be brewing up for The Furball.

Oh God

🤣

Papergirl1968 · 02/03/2023 16:49

Oh god, indeed, Lana. Amateur mistake to get out of bed barefoot with cats!
I just had some great news - my tumour was, as expected, cancer free.

Sweetpea1532 · 02/03/2023 17:18

@Papergirl1968 Thank goodness! That's wonderful news. Woo-hoo🍾

Allergictoironing · 02/03/2023 17:27

Hooray! That is such good news Paper!

To cheer you up even more, I took this pic this morning before work....

That’s awesome @Papergirl1968 !!

and look at Tobias in his house!

Grumpyoldpersonwithcats · 02/03/2023 17:52

That"s absolutely brilliant news Paper - delighted to hear it., Also very pleased to see a picture Tobias in his new home.
DS2 meanwhile has been taking arty photos of him and college cat 😁.

Bless him, Allergic. He looks a little wary, not surprisingly, but quite comfortable.
Great photo by Grumpy's son of his new mate Shadow!

Supersimkin2 · 02/03/2023 20:10

BRILLIANT 🤩

you must be practically faint with relief. We are. Now keep resting up xxxxxxx

I would like to present Pooka in the tiny box. He sits and fits!

Supersimkin2 · 03/03/2023 23:13

😁 Pooka is living proof the best things come in small boxes.

Grumpyoldpersonwithcats · 03/03/2023 23:20

Funnily enough Basil was eyeing up a ludicrously small box a few days ago and Mrs Grumpy made a disparaging comment about him being too fat to fit.
I'm not going to show Basil the picture but Pooka has proved that it can be done 😁.

Pooka! 😂
How's it going Allergic?
You ok, Defiantly?
Is Ollie fully recovered, Rebel?
We are having a few issues between the dog and the cats so I'm about to post in the Doghouse for the first time.

Allergictoironing · 04/03/2023 09:08

Going very slowly, but progressing. Since Thursday I've not seen him anywhere except in the igloo, though he clearly does move around because food is going & the tray is being used.

I have a couple of little cuts on my hand already from him. He wasn't attacking me as such; he will take chicken directly from my hand and a couple of times got a bit over enthusiastic and tried to grab the piece with his claws. We are slowly learning that being grabby with claws = having to wait longer for chicken!

Girlcat has been in his room for a wander around a couple of times when I've been visiting, but has studiously ignored the bed - which used to be her ultimate attainment the few times she managed to get in that room.

Papergirl1968 · 04/03/2023 11:34

Sounds good, Allergic. Still early days and I admire your patience.
I'm having lovely cuddles with Matt. A couple of little love bites though and a furry nose shoved in my ear which felt very odd indeed! 😂

Allergictoironing · 04/03/2023 12:05

Took my 6 months to touch Girlcat, and near enough a year with Boycat. I have the patience needed. I just wish he would settle enough to come out, and that Girlcat would talk to him - those are the next steps.

Superstar Matt, looking after his poorly mum. That could well be why you're having issues between the dog & cats - jealousy.

Rebel2 · 04/03/2023 12:16

Paw paws is having a nap
Ollie actually sleeps properly when paws is here so double bonus!

If looks could kill, the dog would be dead for sure!
I love seeing Paws so comfy and at home.

Grumpyoldpersonwithcats · 04/03/2023 16:49

Basil and Sybil were 12 yesterday. To celebrate I've dug put some photos we took at Battersea when we first went to meet them.
The grey in the photo with Basil is another of the litter.

So cute! Sybil looks tiny, who would have thought that little scrap would grow into such a magnificent, elegant heart breaker?

LostCats · 04/03/2023 17:32

Oh happy birthday!
I love Basil’s face!

Florissant · 04/03/2023 17:55

Happy birthday to the Magnificent Two!

Supersimkin2 · 04/03/2023 21:50

Happiest of Birthdays! Many happy returns to the stunning pair.
