......... as Gizmo and Linney almost reach their first anniversary, they reflect on the joys of living in the same hoose.

Poor Herbie.

Kitty tried sitting out on the balcony for a bit & has now disappeared under the duvet.

Pianoaholic · 24/05/2025 09:51

Herbie is now happily asleep on his blanket in the conservatory. Usually it's lovely and warm in there, but not today!

I was going to empty the dishwasher but I sat down for a moment at the kitchen table and this happened.

That's a very unflattering close up of Kettle, has he given you permission to post that? 🙀

Katja would like to apply to be an excellent cat. Maturing lady, approx 8 years old. Likes napping, chattering at the garden birds, and bunny kicking the absolute sh*t out of her adoptive mother

Not sure if pics uploaded..

Welcome Katja. Picture number 3 is no pose for a lady. You should get on well with Gizmo!

EmpressaurusKitty · 24/05/2025 16:54

Hello Katja!

I was thinking that.

Gizmo has not had a good day.

This morning he had to endure us putting Bravecto on his neck. Outraged, he ran off.

This afternoon he was dismayed even the hoover was switched on, so he ran into the bedroom.

Unfortunately I was changing the sheets, so Gizmo wasn't welcomed on to the bed.

Having run out of rooms, he shot out into the garden, where he discovered that it was raining.

Katja pretends she is a lady but she is a hussy on the brink of an only fans 🙄🙈🤷‍♀️🤣

#thoughtsandprayers for Gizmo.

Welcome to Katja, what a beautiful miniature panther!

He does look incredibly derpy sometimes when he's asleep 😄

Usually a very elegant cat, of course.

TheBroonOneAndTheWhiteOne · 24/05/2025 18:54

I think Gizmo should marry Katja.

They seem to have similar values.

It would be a result for him, because Linney still hadn't given Suzy a divorce, and Picard is champing at the bit to carry on with the stag party plans.

Sybil has other ideas.

Has she?

Have they been secretly communicating?

I’d forgotten all about that.

@DrDisrespect, the boys were going to go off & get arrested somewhere or other & the girls were going to have a hen fortnight in the wilds of Tuscany with Kitty’s Italian cousin. I don’t think it particularly mattered who was marrying who.

Pianoaholic · 24/05/2025 19:39

It never quite happened. Herbie, being a bit of a bruiser, was really looking forward to punch ups with GT!
(He had lots of experience of fighting with Timmy the ginger tom who used to live across the road!)

EmpressaurusKitty · 24/05/2025 19:44

Kitty was going to take her skateboard for flying down the big hills.

@DrDisrespect there was a whole thread devoted to the stag do in Ljubljana. The male cats were going to take money with them to bribe the guards at Ljubljana Jail, which is where they expected to end up.

The bride and her hens had no intention of ending up in jail. Nor were they anticipating punch-ups and the like. They were going to a villa in Tuscany.

The Star Wars three would like it known there is no room for rain in the realm of the force and they all disapprove greatly.

DD recently got one of those flying disc launcher toys (example pic included) and Kettle is fascinated. He's been racing all over the living room trying to catch the disc. Here is his dopey little face watching the disc flying over his head 😄

Anyone looking for an unconventional cat toy, this is very entertaining.

That’s a brilliant pic of Kettle. Did he catch it?

Kitty got her entertainment today from sitting on the balcony watching me clean the outside of the bedroom window, which involved reaching down with a long-handled squeegee. Since we’re 2 floors up there was no way she could be in the same room, but she had a good view.
