Linney, sitting on my copies of Scottish songs - to be taken to the afternoon tea club tomorrow.
He got dirty paw marks on the top copy.

Just to clarify.

I think Linney may have other ideas 😁.

He thinks he would make a fine addition to the afternoon tea club.

I'd go to an afternoon tea club hosted by Linney.

@upanddowns I was also thinking of Allergic and Tobias when I read your post about your rescue cat.

If you look back to the thread when Tobias first went to Allergic's house, you'll see that it took a long time, and a lot of patience, before Tobias started to gain in confidence. Even now, he's still not quite there. But he's very close! Allergic has been so patient.

Thanks, could you post a link to the thread? I can't find it.

@TheShellBeach thank you I'll have a read.

Grumpyoldpersonwithcats · 29/02/2024 18:00

Big yawn.

LostCats · 29/02/2024 18:17

Yey for tea time Linney!!

Grumpyoldpersonwithcats · 29/02/2024 18:28

So - the big MN question.
Did Linney get to the afternoon tea club and if so, did he wow the participants? 😆

He went to sleep on our bed, and said he'd come next week.
Here he is this evening, having a wash, while obstructing our view of the television.

Hello darling Lexter!
Love seeing pics of him.

I don't know if I have posted this before, but this was Lexter when he first lost all his fur. He luffed his lumberjack shirts.

Very smart shirt Rum. Did you make them?

Basil is sitting next to me on the kitchen table and has clearly decided the Brasso needs to be warmed up. No idea why he didn't hoof it away it before settling down.

@Grumpy No, my sewing skills aren't good enough to make clothes. I bought it from Amazon. He has a red one too. I got them to keep him warm while his fur grew back. He looked so handsome with them on.

Basil be like "don't even think about putting a picture of me on the cat thread while I'm curled up with the Brasso".

@Grumpyoldpersonwithcats Basil looks a bit high on Brasso fumes in that second photo ........

I bought the tribe a payday present. 6 pcs Natural Silvervine Sticks... www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0CP6ZMYLM?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

They have just arrived and are a massive hit, although have caused my hand to be shredded as Toad was lying on one stick while attacking another. He was not happy that I took the one he was lying on.

We recommend them for any of the Litter Tray cats, even Ghostie who doesn't play much is rolling round chewing on her stick.
