All cats welcome.

When are you thinking? Not promising but I might be able to wrangle a day in the London office 😁

Bee watching. Thankfully he didn't try to eat it.

Sensible boy.

Well, this is really exciting - @TheBroonOneAndTheWhiteOne is going to visit Kitty & me!

That's really exciting. It's a shame she can't bring Gizmo and Linney to meet Kitty.

Watch out that Grumpy doesn't try and convince you to take a ginger TC back to Scotland with you @TheBroonOneAndTheWhiteOne

I think Gizmo & Linney are probably safer where they are.

Kitty’s very relaxed when surveying her realm from above but I suspect she’d be thoroughly pissed off by another cat entering her territory!

I'll be very careful, don't worry.

He'll slip him into your bag when you're not looking.

I still think Gizmo is plotting to exchange TC2 for Picard.

Aw, Picard had had a haircut.
He looks very smart.

I’m sure he does!

In breaking news - I'm delighted to have been invited to join @EmpressaurusKitty and @TheBroonOneAndTheWhiteOne on Friday.
I've said I'll be recognisable due to my fashionable ginger miaowing handbag 😹

EmpressaurusKitty · 13/07/2025 10:07

This is going to be a historic event! I feel privileged to host it.

EmpressaurusKitty · 13/07/2025 10:17

But Kitty will be vetting all handbags before allowing them inside.

RumNotRun · 13/07/2025 10:44

That sounds like it is going to be a fantastic meet up. I definitely think Grumpy should be banned from bringing any bags, boxes, containers, or anything else in which a cat may be stashed.

I’m relying on Kitty for that. She will (probably) agree to pose for photos and accept the proper adulation that is her due, but she might insist on doing it from the bed.

How exciting! Kitty's going to be wondering how she has attracted all these visitors.

I honestly think she’ll just take it for granted that people would want to come & see her!

HumanToCatBeasties · 13/07/2025 12:11

Sounds like Boris. I'm sure he thinks everyone who comes to the house is there to visit him. I think he thinks "how kind of you to fix our boiler while stopping by to visit me random stranger."

Yes.

As a great treat for the visitor, obviously.

TheBroonOneAndTheWhiteOne · 13/07/2025 15:57

Grumpy and I are meeting at a tube station.

We have exchanged photos, to make this easier.

I've now challenged him to start a HOW OLD DO I LOOK post, so beloved of the seasoned Mumsnetter.

I’m excessively excited that you are all meeting up in real life
