Auntie June visits KFC by
Christina Websell
June came tonight. As she always rushes away after her visits - so busy -
she had not been able to appreciate fully the effects of our groom-a-thon,
so when KFC came swaggering up to greet her tonight she was bowled over by
how beautiful she looks. "Wow" she said, "she looks better than I've...

Boyfie went out by
Christina Websell
This evening before the fireworks for Guy Fawkes night and Diwali started.
They are very loud now and he hasn't returned after a couple of hours. He's
seen it all before so will probably be Ok but I'd prefer to have him inside
away from it.
As we speak he flew inside when I opened the back door...

The diffiiculty with cold weather by
Christina Websell
Is that instead of going to his bedroom now, Boyfie likes to be on my knee
all the time. The problem with that is I am getting up all the time to
fiddle with my woodburner. Anyone who thinks you can put a few logs on the
woodburner and leave it for hours has another think coming. it takes 4...

Déjà vu by
Christina Websell
This morning, Boyfie accompanied me to help feed the chickens. It's a bit
nippy here atm and he hadn't been out for 12 hours so on the way back he dug
himself a little hole in the leaves & earth and sat on it to do a huge wee
next to one of my vacant chicken huts and runs.
What he didn't...

*Someone* by
Christina Websell
Got up on my stove, knocked the cover off my pork with mushrooms and
courgettes and licked most of the gravy off it while I was out playing
Scrabble this afternoon.
Any idea who that could have been?

Making amends by
Christina Websell
Boyfie went out this morning and came back with a collared dove which he
left on the doormat for my dinner, since he'd ruined mine on Tuesday.
It's a long time since he caught one, he used to bring them for KFC.
He couldn't resist just eating the head (sorry, a bit gross) but the rest
was mine...

Halogen oven (OT) by
Christina Websell
I got one a while ago and it's very useful. Last night when boyfie & I
were watching the telly we heard a crash from the kitchen and now it's a
gonner. I spent ages with the vacuum cleaner cleaning up from the smashed
glass for Boyfie's paws.
I stil don't know how it happened.
I've ordered...

Boyfriend hates Christmas by
Christina Websell
Because I go out at about 11 a.m on Christmas Day, return at 3.45 for his
tea (very important) spend an hour or so with him, and go again until
midnight.
The following day, similar except I get home earlier.
Having some turkey doesn't make up for it.
He's glad when Christmas is over. TBH, so am...

I've failed by
Christina Websell
to be the perfect cat owner according to my book. I did almost everything
fine but:
I am supposed to install shelves near the ceiling in every room "because
your cat likes to observe things from there"
I can assure you that won't be happening. Boyfie doesn't want to get up on
a high shelf,...

My new cat by
Christina Websell
I was sitting on my armchair with Boyfie at the side of me when I became
aware that there was a cat on the arm of my chair, I could see him out of
the corner of my eye so I petted him and he came on to my knee. He was
tabby & white like Boyfriend but he was a lot bigger, but thin and he had...

Collared dove for KFC by
Christina Websell
You all know how much KFC likes her wild food (and the vole that Boyfie
caught a few days ago she didn't notice on the carpet. I brought it to her
attention when I stepped on it but rigor mortis had set in and that is
apparently not acceptable.)
So yesterday morning when I was feeding the...

KFC is missing (don't panic) by
Christina Websell
I know where she is. She's behind my woodburning stove. It's in a small
brickbuilt inglenook fireplace with about 8 inches either side and similar
at the back.
It's cold here, it's taken all day to warm up the room to 68F which isn't
good enough obviously so the old girl has taken herself to a...

Been in hospital overnight by
Christina Websell
Don't ask. Once again my wonderful friend June came to the rescue to look
after my cats and chickens.
I only needed to advise her of it and she was there. She fetched me out
hospital today when there was an 8 hour wait for an ambulance and I was
desperate to get home.
She is as capable as I am...

Boyfriend & Simon by
Christina Websell
Simon is an ex-counsellor & befriender I had, provided by my workplace. I
was bullied by a manager when my performance fell when my mother was found
dead, but apparently it's OK to do that as long as they were seen to do the
correct thing by providing a counsellor after bullying me into clinical...

Well, amazing by
Christina Websell
Just now, Boyfie was staring at his new earth/leaves filled litterbox which
he used just once. I said "what, you want to use it ?" He said no, as he's
been out and about all day but continued to stare at it.
Just to humour him I shook it and a mowsie jumped out. It's now an
ex-mowsie as he...

A joke for thanksgiving (OT) by

The Parrot
(A Thanksgiving classic)
A young man named John received a parrot as a gift. The parrot had a bad
attitude and an even worse vocabulary. Every word out of the bird's mouth
was rude, obnoxious and laced with profanity. John tried and tried to change
the bird's attitude by...

Boyfie lost his collar by
Christina Websell
I like him to have a reflective one in case he goes on the road and he came
in without it. I've bought him a new one today and he won't let me put it
on.
He sees it in my hand and disappears.
He was at the door a moment ago, and I got near him but he heard the bell on
it and has disappeared...

How does pet insurance work? by
Christina Websell
If my vet insists you pay immediately and then claim it back?
I thought the whole point of pet insurance is that you cannot afford a huge
fee yourself. or am I missing the point?
I didn't have boyfie insured as such but I'd paid a monthly sum in for
years. He busted it and more.
but he's doing...
