June & I went yesterday to sort out the books and videos I'd been left in my friend's will. I suspected she had hundreds and she did. I cannot take them all, so I have chosen 3 boxes full of books, mainly cookery books, wildlife and birds and some feminist books and videos that she lent me before...

My server says 108 posts not downloaded and I cannot get them. I see Spanner needed purrs and I did not see it. Sorry.

I was asked today by my hydrotherapist whether I would have stepped hard on Boyfie had I known that by doing that I would have not have my shoulder smashed up. Now there's a question, isn't it? Thoughts? It was a no brainer for me. I knew I would fall to avoid him but hadn't quite expected to...

When Boyfie had his vacs a few weeks ago, I also got some Stronghold which is a spot-on for external & internal parasites. Without two functional arms (one to hold him and the other to part his fur) I haven't been able to apply it. Simon visited today, and as he is the only person Boyfie is...

The leaflet that came with my appointment letter said "you might experience some discomfort" so I was confident-ish when I got to the hospital that it would not be too bad. It wasn't. At first. The doc attached electrical thingies to my good arm and then to my bad one and put rubber rings...

I was lying awake at 3 a.m. last night (as usual) when I heard some tapping and chewing noises in my bedroom. Many years ago - before I had cats - I had a mouse in my bedroom and since then I've had a box type catch alive trap baited in there. So, I got up and listened and the noise was coming...

Boyfie knows very well that the only place he is not allowed is my bedroom. He snuck in there today and nearly jumped out of skin when I found him in there looking around. He rushed back down the stairs. He *knows* that it is not allowed and I found him doing it. He was either embarrassed or...

It was revealed yesterday that the bones dug up in the Social Services car park in Leicester, my home time were definitely those of Richard III, our most notorious king. I worked in the building next to that site for a few years and there were many rumours that the building was haunted and some...

Julie has lost her beloved Hobbes. Tweed

in Michigan that a six week old tuxedo girl has been abandoned and has been taken in. She has an attitude and is already beating up the older cats. We all know who that is - reborn - don't we? I wish she was here.. Tweed

Yesterday I was awoken at 4 a.m. by the noise of a cat fight and galloping feet. KFC and Boyfriend do have their ups and downs but they rarely actually fight although it has been known, once or twice, and always in the night. I briefly considered getting up and going downstairs into the cold...

I was shocked to see a TV programme last night which seems to suggest that Americans who cannot have children get baby monkey instead and some people breed them and take the baby away from their mother at 10 days old to earn 3000 dollars. Is it true? I was disgusted to see a couple get a baby...

A photo of KFC was always my wallpaper on my computer. Today I cannot bear to see it again. I will replace it with a photo of Boyfriend for now. I thought I was getting over it, obviously I am not. Tweed

I went back to work today. Oh, that alarm clock! I'd almost forgotten what it sounded like. Boyfriend was still out when I got up at 7, he'd got used to 9 a.m. breakfast too. He heard me switch the radio on, though, so he soon came in. He seemed a bit surprised, like "are you sure you know...

He does not have be shut out from where KFC was eating now. Given the chance he would always try to get her food. It led to some contention. I would tell him off about it and he would sulk. Now he's an only cat he can do what he wants. Which is have breakfast and go out for toilet duties, go...

KFC's body. Where is it? Did she get thrown into a landfill site, get cremated or what? What happened after she was pts (murdered as some would say) Why didn't I get her back to bury her in the place she loved? Ask the RSPCA who paid to have her put down or Mr Barrajo might know where she...

I bow to your superior experience - I've had only 7! By the drawing my optometrist showed me (your eye last year, your eye this year) it doesn't look good even to me. I will have surgery if I need to (I sense stitches in the eyeball again..) You are quite right, Lee, no job is worth losing vision...

Collared doves were always caught by Boyfie for KFC, so there hasn't been one since April, when she passed away. Today I got up and found one deceased in my kitchen, he'd thoughtfully eaten the head and legs so as not to gross me out ;-) I considered plucking it and stewing it (woodpigeon breast...

from TED, to say it's time for his check up and injections. He usually goes with Tigger, but my brother is on holiday atm so Tigger cannot go. I will wait until they can go together. I have to have Claire to help me get Boyfie into his box. I have to sneak up on him in his bedroom and when...
