Greenbee - how exciting. Congratulations to your DB and SiL and you will be the best auntie ever.
Lady Liberty I am so so sorry to hear of Porky's sad passing. When pickle was a kitten we had his sister pepper and she sadly passed away a few days after neutering due to an undiagnosed liver complaint which meant that she could not survive GA. It was such a sad time. Lots of love for you xx
Toots - hope you are doing ok this week x
