Passports, buckets and spades - the Excellent Cats go on their holidays

[TheShellBeach]

The last thread filled up very quickly, mainly thanks to Gizmo's adventures. He is now a fully-fledged Excellent Cat.

And it's allegedly summertime so Ho for the Hols!

The idiot sisters in their bonnets never fail to make me smile!

Argh. Picard and Gizmo had a fight and when I tried to stop them, Picard scratched me in fury and Gizmo went nuts, trying to bite me.

I am wounded. Literally bleeding.

Thanks, Picard.

The only way to break up a cat fight without injury to yourself is well aimed water.

Keep an eye out for infection Shell 🩹

Love the way Picard gets the blame. I bet TC started it 🤣.
Hope your war wounds heal up soon Shell.

Oh dear, @TheShellBeach Tat sounds painful. And are they both ok?
Matt and I have had lovely cuddles in bed over the weekend and I have been permitted, nay, encouraged to stroke his gorgeous, fluffy, ample tum.

We are sharing the sofa now. He has a very gingery tum for a tabby cat.

I was heading for the kitchen to run the tap when they went crazy in the hall.

I suppose I should have retreated, instead of walking through them.
🤣

Oh dear, @TheShellBeach That sounds painful. And are they both ok?

Picard has lost a small quantity of fur.
I'd say that Gizmo got the better of him.

For once..............

Tobias's tabby patch on his white belly is very gingery too :)

Sounds like Gizmo was the victor then. Hope things have calmed down and the next time they meet Picard will show due respect.
Sweet Tobias. He’s made great progress, slowly but surely.

Àw Tobias. He's a lovely chap.

Vixen keeps over grooming so to help give her skin a rest I have found one of Lexter's old shirts.

Lexter looks very cute. He’s rocking the cool turned up collar!
Love his little paws emerging from
the sleeves.

That's Vixen. Lexter doesn't wear his shirts anymore now that he's furry (ish) again.

Vixen, sorry, in Lexter’s shirt.
I would not attempt to put Matt in a shirt because I value my arms too much and do not want them ripped to shreds.

I was surprised at how easy it was to put it on her. She's being very relaxed and cuddly so presumably doesn't mind it. I don't think I'll leave it on when I go to bed though, just in case she does decide to try to wiggle out of it.

Linney hissed at Gizmo and batted him on the nose this morning.

Perhaps he's been reading this thread and is punishing Gizmo for his transgressions yesterday.

Or maybe it was because Gizmo tried to take Linney's Dreamies.

Having a road trip to Birmingham with the youngest (human) idiot sister to celebrate her birthday. Wonder whether the furry ones will miss us?

Will they be raiding their dressing up box in your absence? 😻

DD's cat, Sebastian, enjoying a new box.

Leroy has his op tomorrow 🙈😱 I am absolutely cacking it.

Can't beat a new box Seb 😊

You going to the Kitty Café Holbein?

Good luck with your tooth, Leroy.

Good luck with the tooth Leroy @YesItsMeIDontCare

Hope you heal soon and peace is restored @TheShellBeach
How you get any cat in clothes its beyond me @RumNotRun and @HouseofHolbein

I believe that I would be fatally injured if I tried to get a cat to wear clothes.

Hope all goes smoothly for Leroy's tooth @YesItsMeIDontCare
