Cool people die horrible, preventable deaths.
This cat will fuck you up.
Seriously, if a person looked at me like that I'd be taking off that hat and apologising quick smart

Good luck! Mine have been forced out the catflap by hoover imitation and raised voice at least twice this week and have caused Basil Brush tails on each other.

Quite agree, but she's remarkably prissy about her trips outside and we don't even know where she likes to do her business. Even though she barely uses the litter tray in the bathroom any more since venturing outside, she's very protective of it - woe betide anyone who closes the bathroom door as they're likely to need to answer to a grumpy Coraline who is wanting to inspect what you're up to. She's a bit like a Teresa May of toilets
Colin's markings remind me of Colour Sergeant Bourne

Always makes me worry that I'm about to get a stern talking too about feeding schedules...

Use a dilute solution of Chlorhexidine (Hibiscrub), don't use stuff like savlon or germolene - the problem with cats is that they groom themselves fastidiously and will ingest creams. Chlorhexidine in dilute solution (1 part Chlorhexidine to 20 parts water) is safe.
You can also use boiled and cooled water to clean a small abrasion.
Obviously if it gets worse, doesn't get better, or starts to look inflamed around the edges or smell then it is a job for the vet, but I am sure you know that. Hope your cat is better soon.

It is clearly the time for cats to try and swap owners! I just opened the back door and a little black cat appeared and sauntered over to idiot cat's bowl. At which point idiot cat appeared, fur standing on end so looked bloody huge and made the most bizarre 'yeowch-hisss ' noise and new cat bolted. Anyone who has met him will know how very odd that is for the great soft idiot. Never seen him do much more than look vaguely curious or positively adoring towards another cat
she's v pretty.

I should add (it should be obvious, but I feel the need to add a disclaimer), don't use Chlorhexidine based mouthwash as a substitute, as although it contains the same active ingredient as Hibiscrub, it can also contain other chemicals that may be toxic to animals - xylitol which is often used as a flavouring in mouthwash is deadly to cats.
If in doubt, water boiled and left to cool is at least sterile and won't cause any harm.

i tend to go for boiled salted water for any animal injuries.
tbh, i tend to use that on human injuries as well.
and a little extra...
dear noodle
as much as i love falling asleep to the sound of your purring so you are, most of the time, a very welcome companion at night, if you ever wake me up again at 3am by sinking your exceedingly sharp teeth into my toe, you will be evicted from the bedroom at night.

If I used germoline on myself (I love the smell of it) Charlie would be very interested in trying to take a lick. He was really fucking weird, that big old gorgeous stupid monkey.

It's 6 months tomorrow since he died. That just seems really unfair somehow.
Anyway, as you were.

Can you post photos of him and remind us how lovely he was? It doesn't get easier, it just gets further apart.

Grey has brought yet another worm in. She's naturally skittish and every so often I get hold of her for a proper kiss and cuddle. This almost always results in me being gifted a huge live worm. I can't not cuddle her but I could really do without the "I've got my mouth full as I mew cos I've brought you another present" and then I go and greet her and a floor wriggler
I imagine it's the cat equivalent of being handed a special piece of mud or handful of gravel by your child and having to dispose of it politely while they're playing.
Dehydrated worm is a bugger to peel off rugs and laminate.

i suppose it's a measure of sharing your home with kittys that my first thought was wondering how it compared to removing mouse innards

I love all of you so much... the kindness you've shown me is just... *wipes a tear*
^ With his old favourite, Pink Mouse. For quite some time after he died I carried Pink Mouse around with me everywhere and slept with him. Now he sits next to one of Charlie's pictures on my chest of drawers in the bedroom.
^ Glued to my hip, one of his favourite places.
^ So elegant
This ^ is my logon screen on my computer, and one of my phone backgrounds.
I've got this ^ framed next to his ashes. Peacefully asleep.

I am Noodle's bitch.
He's putting on pounds and starting to look all glossy, feel all silky and to increasingly place humans firmly beneath his mighty paw.
Behold, the Coronation of the mighty King Noodle I!
Naturally, if we inherit another ginger tom, he will henceforth be known as King Noodle II.
Son of Noodle...
Fear him, humans...

Was just looking through some oooooooold photo albums and found this one of Katze, a very cheeky half Maine Coon I shared a flat with 31 years ago. I think then, they were still trying to revive the breed after it had nearly died out, so even "full" Maine Coons from the early 80's looked a bit like this fella. Reminded me of trashpony 's Loki!
