Trick or Cat Treat? The Excellent Cats do Halloween

[TheShellBeach]

I spent ages last night trying to think of this thread title.

🤣🤣🤣

Oh glad there is some progress! Any timeframe for the cone and bandage? Are you still bathing the area?
He is so cute and cuddly, I am looking forward to seeing him free at last!

Kettle is making progress!

Nearly there @Esgaroth

@Breadcat24 He's been like that since day 1 more or less! He's easy to win over, he'll take a head scratch or belly rub from practically anyone 😄 Women and children preferred, though.

@Pudmyboy Hopefully just one more week or so if we can completely stop all access to the wound - and I think we have the system pretty much 100% now. We have to rinse it twice a day, yep. He's finished all his pills though.

I have not seen the hair tie but I also haven't seen any signs of intestinal troubles so it's at the back of my mind for now.

@TheShellBeach @Esgaroth You need to consult Shell who swallows bubblegum. Do not know if she has ever eaten a hair tie

I have not.

Well, not yet.

Give it a go, it was probably delicious judging from Kettle's self satisfied face after he'd snaffled it.

Delighted that Kettle continues to be on the mend. Bet he's looking forward to getting rid of the lampshade.

Sushi enjoyed scooping out the pumpkin!

Sushi also carved a lovely pattern. Do you have a picture of it lit?

Excellent work, Sushi.

Thank you!

Sushi's pumpkin is beautiful. 10/10 ⭐

Today I met these gorgeous fur balls.

Sushi's pumpkin is very impressive.

Matilda has had an uncharacteristically energetic evening and decided to pick a fight with my duvet.

Magnifico indeed 😁

They kept grooming each other and occasionally the right hand one would bite the stripey one. Stripes was a bit more energetic and did not want to stay still for me to get a good photo of her beautiful face.

@Grumpyoldpersonwithcats you get everywhere! This is at Bondi Beach.

And an NMI (Ibis) in the Botanic Gardens

Who won?

Ah I tell you what I’ve missed you lot. Been spending some time with family in warmer climes and giving much smooches to an Arabian Mau Princess who takes no nonsense 🤣
DH off to get our babies from the Cattery later. I can’t wait to see them. I always leave the bags with everything in so they can smell we haven’t just abandoned them (not at all because it takes so long to unpack of course 😁)

The duvet cover took an early lead when Matilda got her claws stuck in it, but she eventually untangled herself and rolled around victoriously. Looking at the amount of pulled threads Matilda is the long-term winner.

Kitty says nice work, Matilda!

Like that conspiratorial wink!

Same here - great photo. 👍

I was fostering Kitty & her one remaining kitten. Kitten got rehomed & I was a bit worried Kitty might be upset - but she more or less heaved a huge sigh of relief & that was the first kitten-free photo I took of her!

At that point she came out of her shell & I fell in love.

Haha kittenfree at last 😉. Kitty is so beautiful.

Kettle sits by the utility room door and winks at me when he reckons it's about dinner time 😄 He's never known the pressures of fatherhood.
