Oh I'm sure SHE appreciates it!
Especially when SHE's watching me trying to catch my wallet currently floating near the ceiling like a hydrogen filled balloon it's that light..... hours of merriment there, bless HER!

Days out? Football? In my dreams...

I have always thought that the best name for a 'kitty' would be 'Cooking fat'

Though I suspect the OP may be calling it something similar already

I would love my bills to be £160!! Do I even dare say, they are currently in five figures? Okay, that is for a few different pets but one of my cat's bills is just over £18000..... so far...

WOW, you have topped my bill. I keep asking about getting 'airmiles' or 'reward points'.

I asked about frequent flyer miles last time my daughter was in A&E! Apparently they're not worth much on the NHS, weekend in Bognor Regis....


Ouch OP, that is a big bill for not very much! What is this 'special food'? Is it hills or science plan crap?

All joking aside he was insured since he was a kitten but when he hit 12yo the insurer at the time refused to cover him & other companies either didn't want to know or quoted ridiculous premiums.

To be fair to him he's now 16, has lived outside most of his life & hasn't cost us a penny in vets bills (apart from visits for battle scars occasionally) so the £160 I paid spread over 16 years is pretty good going.

My original post was making a light hearted response to genuine shock that a 10 minute visit resulted in a £160 bill... it's easy to see how others can rack up thousands of £s.
