Lap dances, strippers and punch-ups - the Excellent Cats arrange a stag party

Well, the boys among them are making plans.

The lady cats are having a spa fortnight in Italy.

Bills for flights, accommodation, food, booze, medical insurance and legal fees (not to mention a fund for bribing officials at Ljubljana Prison) are allegedly being sent to an unmonitored email address.

Does this mean he will have to lead a quiet life, to avoid strain on his heart?

I don't think so. The vet didn't say anything about that.
Linney loves going out, jumping here and there. I think if he stops being able to do that, we'll know he's got a lot worse.

So Linney's plans to go to Ljubljana on the stag do are unchanged.

Allergic, I'm so glad that you got Tobias into his carrier without incident.

We've actually found that Gizmo has been easier to handle lately, too.

I had a really weird dream last night about a cat in a crocheted balaclava with pink bows on the ears.

The oddest bit was that the cat didn’t seem to mind.

Anniegetyourgun · 11/02/2025 13:07

Not been on here much because now I'm retired I'm too busy to MN (it always works like that!) so Allergic has been updating me on what all this stag do thing is about. So, is it that the broon one has cut the white one out with Suzy the vampire kitty? Well no wonder poor Linney has heart issues, Suzy has broken it 😿

Anniegetyourgun · 11/02/2025 13:14

Vet called at 09:30 to say scan was done and they had found some enlarged lymph nodes, so were seeking approval to take a biopsy while he was still under. Allergic is now angsting as she calculates they would have finished scanning, biopsy etc by about 10 am so he should have woken some time ago. I just said he probably woke up ravenous and ate the sonographer.

DD2's friend arrived yesterday and popped in to see us.
Gizmo let her stroke him and didn't try to bite her.

Snowcat is boogying away, preparing for the disco at the hen do.

Would the girls like a go on Kitty’s skateboard?

stormsandsunshine · 11/02/2025 16:04

I think Stripey would be up for skateboarding - she’s into everything

Fetched Tobias shortly after Annie's post above. He was lying all flat in the bottom of his crate looking VERY sorry for himself. He did cheer up though as after hiding behind the sofa for 10 minutes he was drawn out by the smell of KFC. The annoying thing is that Annie is the one to grab him & bundle him in a crate, but he was begging to her for chicken not me, and accepted some tuna loin from her & wouldn't come up to me!

Be a few days wait for the official report, but apart from the lymph notes being a little on the large side the sonographer didn't comment to my vet about anything looking serious. Poor little love has 3 bald patches - a little one on his leg from the sedation, a largish one on his neck from them taking bloods (checking his B12 levels), and I have no idea about his belly as haven't managed to get a good look. But he has long, thick belly fur especially towards his back legs and I caught a glimpse of a "step" that looked at least an inch or so where the fur right near the back came to a sudden stop due to shaving.

This one?

The very same, thanks for linking!
Am I right in thinking it was originally the cover of a political magazine of the time?

Someone brought some of those along when I did jury service back in sept, I didn't like them!
They're an acquired taste!

Good that Linney is still up for the stag do. Herbie perked up at the news!

She's giving Louie a run for his money.

Ooh I don't know! I found that picture, on tin, in a charity shop! Hopefully someone smart will be along soon to let us know!

Aha! I was going to say this but couldn't remember Louie's name! He hasn't been on this thread for a while, hope he's still dancing away

He knows nobody can resist this fluffy tummy.

Floofy tummies are a sore point in this house right now! Poor Tobias, I'm going to have to put the heating on for longer to make up for his bald bit 🙀

Pianoaholic · 11/02/2025 17:57

Does Stripey dance too @stormsandsunshine ?
I am imagining them dancing together ❤️!

Pianoaholic · 11/02/2025 18:01

Have just googled le Chat Noir and apparently it was a bohemian venue in montematre which attracted avant garde writers, artists etc. There was entertainment there...sounds perfect for the stag do, if there's an equivalent in Ljubljana!

Grumpyoldpersonwithcats · 11/02/2025 18:08

Our 3 boys would happily attend Les Chats Noir.

Thinking about it - should that be Les chats noirs? My schoolboy French is very rusty
