me. I got rushed to the ER on Xmas eve at 9pm with stomach cramps as was
there until 5am Christmas morning having MRI's and tests as they thought
it was appendicitis. It wasn't fortunately, but I was rough all the
same. :o(

Everyone is home... by
Helen Miles
Well, Lily isn't yet. ;o)
I've just got my guys picked up from the cattery. The cattery is lovely,
and the staff are very competent and kind, but the mogs hate being
cooped up and they don't enjoy it.
I got home and opened the carriers and everyone was immediately out and
checking the house. It...

said I would have a guaranteed place this year provided I took a
Chemistry A'level.
So, I dutifully went back to school, 2 nights a week to take this...

The Cat Flap... by
Helen Miles
I had a cat flap installed in the kitchen dooor today. Now I'm up to 5
cats, and the spring and summer are coming, I figured it was only fair
to the mogs for them to be able to go out during the day.
You have NEVER seen such excitement! Robbie, Lily and Tiger all
supervised Martin the guy who came...

OT Rant - Update...& the cat flap by
Helen Miles
I emailed the course tutor for the teacher training course asking about
my application. She was very good, and emailed me back with a reason
about why I had been rejected.
Turns out that she had made a king sized mistake! An administrative
error by accident had meant that I was automatically...

Suggestions for doping a kitten... by
Helen Miles
Does anyone have any suggestions for slowing a hyperactive hoolikitten
down? Lily has had kitten greebling zoomies for the last hour and she
shows no sign of slowing down. She's going mental - she's killed all the
papers on my desk - twice, she's been up the curtains, she's beaten up
the dog, she's...

You may remember Andrea Fuller with Grace, Poppy, Fliss and Flo? Well
I've been trying to get hold of her by phone for the last couple of

haven't spoken to her for a few months and I'm trying to catch up on her
and the cats.

Thank you for the cards by
Helen Miles
Folks,
Thank you all so much for the wonderful Christmas cards. They are
cheering up a very, very rough few weeks - especially when I get home
after a ****ty day and there's another 3 or 4 from friends around the
world with personalised notes waiting on the mat. They are appreciated
more than I...

Major purrs needed for a bittie by
Helen Miles
Folks,
We need some major purrs here. I have on the way to me a CP emergency.
The information I have so far, is that a Cats protection person
discovered a badly beaten tabby bittie in a rubbish skip this afternoon.
He/she has been so badly beaten that as soon as the swelling has gone
down, it will...

Bittie update by
Helen Miles
Well, Bittie is at Chez Miles. From the sounds of it, she's (I'll call
her a she, because that is what everyone thinks she is) had quite the
adventure. :o(
She was found in a rubbish skip this morning, and had a badly
burst/ulcerated eye and a lot of blood all over her. She was immediately

Further Miss Whiskers update... by
Helen Miles
As you know, Miss Whiskers had her op to remove her left eye this
morning. She is now back home, sacked out on a ho****er bottle covered
in a sheepskin fleece, having eaten 2 packets of kitten whiskas.
I think she's going to be OK. ;o)
The vet says that she's skinny and underweight, but I think...

Hello folks ;o).... by

Hi folks...
Seems Miss Whiskers has decided to learn to become computer literate.
Apparently the computer mouse cursor is the most amazing thing on the
planet to chase. She's fascinated by it!
Just watching it keeps her quiet for hours!!!

Update on Miss Whiskers Thurs PM by

Just got back from the ER.
It seems that Miss Whiskers has an systemic infection from her ordeal.
Quite apart from the damaged eye, something that I didn't mention on
Friday was that when found, she also had quite badly burned paws which
were all puffy, swolen, sore and red, a nasty gash at the...

SNOW! by
Helen Miles
His Royal Feline Lordship Tiger is utterly horrified. Last night,
Cardiff had the best part of 3" of snow. This now means that himself
will get cold feet if he even so much as gets out of bed, let alone
sticks his nose out of the back door. He is appalled.
Of course, it's *MY* fault that there is...

slave of a 2lb fur ball. :o)
The other cats seem happy about it too. Tiger was playing "chase and
pounce" with Lilly for well over an hour this morning....

A while back, I wrote a post about Tiger and Bonnie. Someone here
suggested that I sent it to "Smarter than Jack", an organisation that
produces books with true animal stories to raise money for animal
shelters. I did submit the story, then promptly completely forgot all
about it.
