Back to kitty cats - some of you may not have seen the thread in the MSE Arms section which is devoted to pictures of our furry friends. My beautiful fur-babies are in there. Here's a link to the thread:

Be warned fellow cat lovers, your heart will melt, and you'll shed a tear before you get to the last post

Kaatlady, what were the drops you used to put in the water for your cat's cystitis? These 2 are currently on Hills Prescription food as Nino had cystitis around 3 years ago (but nothing since apparently). So once they have settled I am going to ask a/my vet about changing them onto something different (and I would have thought they'd enjoy wet food a bit more too) but if there's a natural preventative addition I can give them that would be helpful I'd have thought.

hi there SD :j
will look out the drops after dinner as DH knows where they are and he is out ''getting'' onions at the moment

Evening everyone!
Been home from work about 2 hours and haven't done anything yet! Thankfully OH had hoovered through and done all the dishes before I got in :T but my plan was to clean the bathroom, sort our bedroom and cook shepherds pie. Might save the cleaning for tomorrow night and just eat and watch TV
Smoky ... really hope you are feeling better today
Squiggly ... so glad Lola and Nino have come to live with you!
Have a good evening everyone :wave:Small business owner 🧵 Ex MSE comper 🏆 Student loan repayer 💴 Romanian dog rescuer 🐕 Hopefully a cost of living survivor 🤞🏻0 -

Mioliere ours go back to school 18th august
Pooky well done to your dh getting the job
Meanmarie glad your dh is ok
Squiggly your cats look gorgeous, we have rehomed cats too and we found they take a couple of months to really settle right in but worth it
Grannybroon have a lovely holiday
welcome all the newbies
VickyA well done to your school and all the hard working teachers
Pink hope your cat is better now, i wouldnt go near that vet again
its been a lovely warm day here, got the sheets changed, washed and dried
done my stint at the playscheme and have decided to work through and not have a week off the money will be handy
had the boys over picking rasps, not many went home to kyle though0 -
Hi again
M - we leave around 8 in the morning, so depending on how organised I am not I may not be back.
Congrats Mr Pooky - Fingers crossed for Snowyowl that something turns up for you soon (and for my DS too).
Smoky - hope you have managed to shake of the worst and that your LO's don't get it, but if not REST!
Thanks for the Pasta advice, I will pass it on to DS.
Jayward sorry luv it's been a bit hectic last couple of days, and the connection has not been helping us. Will catch up again once new BB connection sorted at home.
Bread - order - well if memory serves me right, it is put the bread and salt together in a bowl, make a well in the centre, mix sugar with yeast and other wet ingredients, must be at least room temperature, nothing cold else yeast does not work. Pour into well, flick some flour over the top of the liquid cover and wait for yeast to start working before mixing in and kneading. Put to rise again.
Feel free to correct me folks, cookery not my specialist subject, and the above was from my school days, and I will enter my Heinz year next month.
Welcome newbies, can't keep up at the moment, but you are welcome. To whoever it was who's OH was not using polite language, sorry that word not allowed in this house, only heard DS23 use it once, and that was when he saw a cockroach out here! Never heard it either from a factory of 500 gentlemen, knew they used it, but never in my hearing, and especially not in young childrens hearing.
To those with the cat stories (hugs) if yours isn't right, can't quite understand and not a cat person, but cannot hurt them.
Right if I don't get back hopefully catch up Friday.
Be good (ish). DGMember #8 of the SKI-ers Club
