New thread for the inmates of Toddler Towers. Strange to think, it's about two completely different cats, from the original
Thread. But Magic, Maia and Cheddar will never be forgotten.

I'm on nights, so we are all snoozing on my bed.

It’s great to see them so chilled in such close proximity. Mind you, Miss Penelope is keeping one eye open!

Toddlerteaplease · 01/09/2024 15:18

She's vacated her windowsill. And takes up residence in the bath or spare room. She'll occasionally sit in the doorway or on the landing. So I'm taking it as progress. My parents are coming later. And surprisingly, she loves extra people in the house. So she'll enjoy the attention.

Love that they have hijacked both pillows!

Toddlerteaplease · 01/09/2024 15:45

Pads was at the bottom of the bed. I had to lie diagonally! Cheddar and Penelope used to hi jack both. I'd have to squeeze ok the midddle!

To be fair, though Penelope does let me sleep on her pillow. And it's lovely to hear her purring her head off in my ear.

She's also allowing mr to pick her up and cuddle her. Since I don't have to put things in her eyes and ears.

She's got me in the spare room tonight, as my parents are here. so I've shut the door. She's very happy!

She does look very content.

Pads is in with your parents?

Toddlerteaplease · 02/09/2024 06:38

I think Pads is on the landing. I just got up and he jumped on my bed. I thought they were having a massive fight. It he had his back to Penelope, and she hadn't actually moved. She's all mouth! Everyone is being very negative about them, but it's definitely improving.

Your mother has a gift because Paddington is listening too — from the doorway.

A reading hour every day for therapeutic purposes. Gather ‘round felines; “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times”. 😁

Toddlerteaplease · 03/09/2024 12:55

The book she was reading was 'The plots to kill Hitler' Penelope said it was a nice change from Sherlock Holmes on Audible.

Apparently Paddington was there because he was hunting a moth. 😂

The rescue have taken two more cats from the same place as Pen. One of them is absolutely gorgeous. But he's got a nasty eye ulcer...... They've taken swabs, and she'll let me know what it grows. It will be interesting to know. But I'm so angry with this person. That more cats are suffering. But at least I saved Penelope.

I can't believe y pair are acting like real cats. They both love Sheba in gravy. So I bought a big box of 75 pouches, of Natures collection. (Which stinks)) and they won't bloody eat it. 🤯😬🫣

Yep. My two need kidney food. After taking to it enthusiastically they are now refusing and I'm desperately searching for some kidney food they will eat

Soubriquet · 06/09/2024 22:30

Never buy bulk food! It’s cat law to reject it if you buy it in bulk

Luckily my cat seems to have settled nicely on gourmet so I can buy the 72 and know she will eat it

Toddlerteaplease · 08/09/2024 12:19

I've caved as I can't bear the smell it creates when I bin the uneaten food. Invested in flakes in gravy. They are very happy with that.

Penelope loudly demanded breakfast this morning. And escorted me to her bowl. Normal Penelope is coming back!

That may have been pheasant. Or caviar…
