what has she been trying to set fire to?

Very snuggly Sunday today!

 

[pogofish]

I wonder who whipped an open tub of sour cream out of the fridge when I was putting the shopping away..?

 

[fucthest8]

They grow up so fast pogofish!

How's Jakey been getting on over the weekend Epona? "Wee blanket" still working out?

 

[High Voltage]

Successfully managed to remove a tick from Casper this afternoon

I think it's the first one of the year that I've had to unscrew. We've managed to catch, maybe, 4 or 5 that have just been on the cat slowly moving around looking for a place to bite, they look a bit like small black spiders

It must’ve only just latched on as I first noticed it yesterday and it's removed today. Horrible, disgusting, repulsive things that they are

Ticks give me the heebie-jeebies.

Back in the days when I use to go riding a lot there was a cat at the stables that seemed very prone to ticks and some of the ones on her looked like baked beans when they were full of blood. I use to take the Frontline spray (remember that?) with me and give the tick a blast of that to make it let go before tweezering it off as the people who owned the yard didn't seemed too bothered.

Hi Lilith sweetheart.

 

[LeytonCatLady]

Hi Lilith sweetheart.

"Hi Philosophical."

 

[polly]

He never hangs out with us in the evening! Unprecedented scenes.

 

[LeytonCatLady]

I think he must be a Siamese of some sort. Definitely pale blue eyes. He's very friendly and allowed me to stroke him.

Found out his name's Idris!

How's Jakey been getting on over the weekend Epona? "Wee blanket" still working out?

Thanks for asking, he's OK ta - the antibiotics seem to have done the job in terms of clearing up his bladder woes.
He's a bit off his food though, he's only got his 2 bottom fangs left and sometimes gets his top lip stuck the wrong side of one on of them on the left side of his face and it gets a bit sore, at the moment he's actually got a sore looking hole in his top lip where the tip of his bottom tooth has cut into it, I really must point this out to the vet next time we visit, I'm not sure what can potentially be done to remedy it, but as someone with a wisdom tooth that sometimes digs into the inside of their cheek, I have every sympathy for the poor fella.

The wee blankets/mats are working out very well for sofa protection if he pisses himself in his sleep, it helps that he always sleeps in the same place these days (where I sit on the sofa, he's there whether I'm sitting there or not!)
They're quite long so it's possible to position them to get 2 nights use out of them by turning them round. Or more use than that if he has a dry night.
I haven't tried washing one yet, will report back.
They are good for furniture protection if you have an incontinent pet that sleeps in one spot, and I imagine they are good for puppy training.
