    Am resolved to go and ask about Kitty today. Had a good cry last night as miss the little scrap so much and woke with a start really early this morning as dreamt about her jumping over the fence to see us like she used to. Being scared something awful as happened is silly when she might just be shut in their house. Am working on the story now as just saying she spent days in our house will not be appreciated by them. Think I will just say I saw so much of her around the place that I'm wondering if she is ok.

    Laughing at the moisturiser/cleanser, but very sobering thinking about kitty. Please let us know, yes, I agree with hiddenshadow.

    Been thinking moisturiser was not working very well and I would need to change. Last of the pot pumped out and a new one found from cupboard and I realised they were very different in colour and texture. Rechecked the empty pot and for some while now I have been smearing cleanser/'make up remover over face and rubbing in :rotfl:
    In my defence the bottles were identical in all but name :)

    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: that would be me. My mum put me onto b@@ts own brand and it beats the more expensive stuff any day :D:D at £1.50 and 3 for 2 :rotfl::rotfl:http://www.boots.com/en/Boots-Essentials-Cucumber-Moisturising-Cream-1-x-100ml_869591/

    As for kitty, just say you not seen her about, is she ok???

    This is exactly what I said. And that I was being a nosy neighbour and just hoped everything was alright with her as she was such a friendly little thing.

    Neighbour says Kitty has been rehomed with their daughter - whose cat she originally was.
    They think Kitty was stressed as she lost a lot of weight at the start of the year - which would tie in with the skinny little scrap we found. They realised Kitty was not coming home much (err yes we worked out she didn't want to live there) and that in order to keep her safe she has been sent away.
    So I feel better knowing Kitty is being looked after. I miss her of course but the daughter is lovely and I have no doubt kitty will be taken good care of now.

    Aw, yay for kitty having a happy ending at least. Shame you won't get to see her anymore though.

    Good news for kitty, at any rate. Thanks for posting, Watty.

    I do think it is a very happy ending for Kitty. They are not the sort of people who would realise she was unhappy at home and would therefore never have just agreed she could live here and visit them whenever she wanted. That was the resolution I would have liked, but, Mr Watty pointed out more than once they would never let that happen.
    Miss her very much but so glad she has a home of her own where she will be happy and can let her go knowing that she left here fully fit, well fed, flea free and ready to take on the new life rather than being the starving underweight poorly scrap that we found sheltering under a bush in February. The whole place seems so much quieter without her, but, I do keep reminding myself she is going to be happy being the only cat and she has a tiny dog for company that she can easily keep in line.

    Thanks KC. I will look out for a rescue where I can drop off the food, flea treatments, wormer and the box of ping pong balls she pretended she would not play with but as soon as there was no one around I could hear her running around the living room enthusiastically batting them about :)
