There's a video, which - tbh - is compromising both our dignity just a bit too much to be posted

I hope they're okay, bob. Tough losing a pet, whatever age you are.

Charlie purring like a tractor, as he usually does.
I'm intrigued to discover that Nigel (who's sitting next to my sub) couldn't give a fuck about your Charlie's purring, though she's intrigued by the sound of her own

Oh I'm so sorry Lizzie, she was an ace little dog
Sorry to hear abuot Skinner too bob.
It's so sad when you have to let them go
I'm going to go home and give my 2 pups an extra squeeze tonight
*sigh*
It's never a good idea to let Nigel out after midnight, when I'm working.
Guaranteed she won't be back until gone 3.
Which leaves a choice of:
1. go to bed when I feel like it, deal with feeling a bit guilty, and have the world's neediest and most self-pitiful cat scrabbling at the window first thing tomorrow; or
2. wait up for the fucker.

Sorry
Could you tempt/train her with cat treats? Schrodes used to sit outside the window looking up at me for what seemed like hours whilst I tried to coax him in so that I could leave for work. I swear I almost had an aneurysm a couple of times. So I bought a bag of cat treats and I would shake them so that he associated the noise with getting something yummy.
Now he comes tearing-arse across roofs and gardens whenever he hears it
The *only* things she'll go for are salmon purina, webbox trout and crack sticks, and prawns.
Regrettably, the one thing Nigel likes enough to be trained with, is being let out.
We've managed to train her to sometimes ring a parrot's bell when she wants to go out. All other offers are futile.
And tempting her with the offer of being let out loses some of its allure, when she already IS out!
Artichoke can't get within 10 feet of her from the minute it hits dusk, bc Nigel knows the minute she lays a finger on her, she'll grab her and drag her kicking and yowling inside. Until tomorrow.
After a protracted campaign of not dragging her back in, I can now go out and she'll come over (as long as Artichoke isn't around - the cat's even more confident when she knows the boss is on holiday). But as soon as I use my privileged access to drag the damned cat inside, I'm fully aware that I'll lose all the privileges that allowed me to do it in the first place!

Or you just let her stay out on a particularly rainy night with the option of the following morning to get good and hungry and to re learn pecking order.

AKA "Kitty crack" - don't know what they put in them to make them that appealing. I always feel as if I'm in danger of losing a limb when trying to give those to the cats, they should come with safety instructions warning to throw it as far away as possible before the cats get to you!

Id not heard of these before.
TBH, lucy's got such a sketchy tummy, any alterations in her diet result in bloody poo (this is why it took me so long to get her off the rehoming centre). So she lives on a diet Royal Canin Persian Cat formula dry food, and water. For a treat she gets tinned tuna, or the odd prawn if im cooking some (very rarely for both).
My mum buys her proper cat treats, but she turns her nose at them always, except the catnip mouse....... thats what we call kitty crack
From the royal canin packet I also learnt that german for 'persian cat' is 'Persekatzen'...... I have been tempted to rename her.
