They are big buggers and one used to sit every night in the tree outside my bedroom window and scare the bejezus out of me.

Ha ha. She's very "tactile," as in has to touch things or pick them up with her paw, which is quite cute, but can be a pain. So, if you present her with anything like a cuddly toy say, she "embraces" it, then gives you a look like "wtf is this thing?" before either flinging it away or kicking the crap out of it.

The cat checking its weight after its recent tummy upset. 115 grams less than two weeks ago. 
But her tail was all over the shop so I asked her to do it again. Better!

She always blinks when the camera flashes - it's impossible to get a pic of her happy face. But she's VERY happy today.

This is her "I am supervising Windrush Square" face. She's a big fan of Brixton library.

Are psyllium husks good? I bought some in the bogofap sale in H&B, because my diet's pretty poor at the mo so I'm supplementing with complan, which I happen to know contains fuck all fibre so needed a fibre supplement as well. I haven't taken any yet though, I heard swells up and if you don't drink enough water it gets stuck in your throat and your oesophagus explodes? Does it give you bloating or upset bowels?

No ill effects at all, in fact no noticeable effect on my digestion. But then it was fine before. I take them as an appetite suppressant. They swell to 30x their size and you're supposed to have a glass of water with them. I think there was one case of somebody choking on them because she didn't swallow properly. But they've been used by millions of Americans for years, with just the one fatality.

Do you not have to be on the dole for the blue cross?

You just have to be on a low income. "People on a low income may also qualify at our discretion and you will need to bring a wage slip or bank statement". You could check on the phone, they're v helpful. 0300 777 1890

My effing cat has been seen in a neighbour's back garden "looking miserable". The neighbour lives in a mansion block across the road and the only way the cat can have got there is to nip through somebody's legs when they open their communal door, then their front door and get out of a window at the back. The cat's not there any more, she'll be roaming up and down a whole street of back gardens looking more and more pathetic. Eventually I'll get another phone call I suppose. Oh well; it's a good way to get to know the neighbours. As well as the staff at the library. And the Ritzy.
Moar shleepy puppington!
When she lies her front, her back legs and tail are at perfect right angles - like a little hairy set-square you use in maths at school

Breeze ventured into the garden today - sort of. It was "interesting." Will need a bit more work I think.
Love the fact that she has a hardcore harness, but looks soft as shite
Tried one of mine with a harness, he just went completely floppy, it was like his legs stopped working. Mind you he does that a lot anyway - he has a tendency to walk in front of me then gradually lower his head and flop onto the floor on his back with his legs in the air purring like mad, it's like his legs have given out on him, he's a daft sod
