I am about to go to bed and I just checked to make sure KFC was on hers. Oh dear. It's such a habit. And it brings tears every time when I remember. Tweed

It was 30C today, I stayed in until I had to water the veggie plot at 8 pm and although Boyfie likes the heat he decided to stay in too, and he's just gone up to his bedroom deciding even going out during the night is far too hot for comfort. I have a Galileo thermometer and for the first time I...

I've been out since 7.30 a.m. on a coach trip and didn't get back until 9.30 pm which missed his 3.45 (must have at that time) teatime by nearly 6 hours. He was waiting for me reproachfully, scarfed down his late meal and disappeared into the garden in a huff. Tweed

the prey noise. It was a vole (deceased) and he threw it all over the kitchen and played with it, practicing his techniques "this is how you catch a vole and this is how to catch it in the air." Luckily it was dead at the time. Kitty taught him the killing bite. Now he's just eaten it and is...

Is Baa, baa, black sheep racist? A small boy of about 10 was riding around outside my house on his bike singing it -don't ask me why. He did it so much I was almost up to tell him to stop because he was getting on my nerves. I was surprised to have an Asian neighbour come out and tell him it's...

Went to TED's yesterday. Both passed their physical exam with flying colours. Alison the vet says Boyfie's teeth are exceptional for his age. We took some pics on Claire's camera.. the vet was happy for us to do it and was amused that Boyfie has an online following. Boyfie came out of his box...

It's 9.40 pm and Boyfie is hunkered over his ceramic dish staring hopefully into it for his 10 pm sprinkle of dry food. He gets his wet food in a stainless steel dish and his dry in the ceramic one. He knows very well what he's doing but I'm studiously ignoring him. If he gets it early, it will...

I found one deceased on the path down to my chickens yesterday. I knew Boyfie couldn't have dunnit as it was far too big for his comfort zone so my neighbour a few doors away who also has chickens are probably poisoning. I've chosen not to use poison, I did used to once but I saw a rat dying...

Just let's say we got it done. I sat her on my knee on the way to the vet and put her into Boyfie's wooden box when we got there because she just has no manners at all whatsoever and she barked if she thought she could even see a dog and screamed at them and scrabbled at my lap. I have no idea...

Boyfie insisted on going out. I should have have said no as I am now up at 4 a.m waiting for him to come in. Lucky I dont have to go to work. Sometimes he really pushes his luck. If he isn't in half an hour he'll have to sleep in the conservatory, which is cold. 4.30 am is enough to stay up.I...

I made sure he came inside at 11pm from his "rat patrol" but it had started raining (again) anyway. He doesn't like fireworks and raced up to his bedroom at 12.01 when they started going off. Happy New Year everyone and may 2013 bring you all good health and happiness. Tweed

I think I might have sorted out why I can't reply. Perhaps.

I'm logged in to chat. Some Europeans will still be up as it's 7.30 pm. http://www.penguinpowered.ca/~vexorg/rec.pets.cats.anecdotes.html Tweed

We've had unseasonably warm weather here in the UK for the last few weeks. It all changed yesterday, raining hard and lashing winds. So we both agreed I should light the woodburner, so I did. We stayed in all day. It always amazes me how long Boyfriend's bladder can last out. I still have a...

For my Uncle Bryan, who has been like a father to me and is hospital from his second stroke and now cannot swallow properly. We got him home over Christmas to watch us eating our nice meal while he sat at our side trying to eat blended mush. He did not want it. Not surprising. Please purr for...

This would have been one dead bird had he tried this trick on Boyfriend who would not have left a crumb anyway: http://www.flixxy.com/seagull-and-cat.htm Hope you like it Tweed

For helping me put his spot-on on a month ago. I thought he would be shy of him afterwards as we had to hold him down. Simon visited me this afternoon and Boyfie was so happy with that he very nearly rubbed himself against his legs. Not quite, it was a step too far but he stayed in the room...

When I was washing myself yesterday I noticed a beetly thing in the water. I got it out and it was a FLEA! I've been to my brother's house and he has a dog and cat that always have fleas despite his best efforts. I must have carried it back. It was a shock, tbh, but if there was another flea I...

to beg some of the big plant pots from the officials who were clearing out a cannabis farm on Tuesday! they said help yourself. I had to walk part of the way home with them I'd left my car a way away so I hoped a drug dog would not come along and sniff me ;-) I might go back tomorrow for the...
