Was also away for 2 nights, got a written cat report/narrative as well as texts from the person looking after molly!
Might post it timtomor
 
Clive (the white(?) and tabby) has just come in absolutely filthy

not his usual level of grub I hasten to add - but whatever white fur he had is now DIRTY - he's been rolling in "something" - honestly, if I didn't know any better I'd think he was a D. O. G. <shudders>
 
We've washed cats before - and this isn't the first time he's come in after a dirt bath - it seems that it's something that cats "do" for various reasons, none of which are bad - just . . . he's fucking filthy

The last time we washed a cat - believe it or not, we used a couple of drops of Ecover washing up liquid - having tried kitten shampoo previous and we didn't like the effect it had on the cat's skin - Ecover, however, was perfect

Last time I was away, I got a series of texts from my cat-sitter friend, which detailed the cat's initial destructive tendencies - something we were aware of. Last text was something like "Day 5. Took my glasses off to go to sleep last night, but they are not where I left them. Everything is blurry. The cat attacks my feet every time I head towards the front door in hope of escape. My phone is on 3% battery power. Please send help."

(I've always appreciated his flair for the dramatic :D )
 
Also I hate to be the debbie downer on a thread but please check your washing machine/dryer/dishwasher for cats or kittens before pressing start - I know someone who once opened an appliance and in amongst their laundry was their dead cat that had got in there without them knowing and drowned/boiled, they were absolutely devastated.

That's awful :(
I'm a nervous wreck when doing a wash. I check, then double check. Then do a head count and check again. Also make sure toilet lid is down. Visitors are all told to do this, then I go and check.
 
So little miss molly went for her diabetes checkup this morning. Have to say, she was very good. And she's doing great :thumbs:
Lost a small amount of weight. But the vet said it could be the heat causing that. Don't have to take her again for 3 months. All being good.
Was slightly lost for words when I was waiting at the pharmacy to collect insulin and needles. The person collecting medication in front of me was asked if she wanted to leave a donation. Shockingly she refused, stating rather loudly for all to hear "You know, cat charities get the most money out of all charities" Then looking around at everyone, shot "Remember that people" as she exited out the door. Just wow!!
I consider myself so lucky to have this hospital to turn too. And I've needed them in a few emergencies. One last year that broke my heart..
All they ever ask for is a donation. And a very small token amount for any medication their pet needs.
I collected a vial of insulin and syringes for Molly. This insulin alone costs £45.60 :eek: All for a donation. Whatever you can afford.
As I said. Speechless!!
 
So the cat cancer was cut out but when we came back from holiday her belly was swollen so back to the vets she went. Cancer come back really aggressively so she's got to be killed, as she can't eat and is in great pain
 
We don’t have cats but somehow have 2 & a kitten. Came home today to pigeon feather carnage in the garden. Looks like some tussle was had. All cats that definitely don’t live here but we feed & fuss have been told off.
