Woohoo! :j0 -
With only popping by occasionally, I have no idea why vinegar makes lir happy, but I'm happy she's happy:D.
And as for tickets for SCD, I would love to go, even though I haven't seen the last couple of years apart from the occasional bit of catch up. Have a wonderful time.0 -

My house is in turmoil and freezing cold.....having a power flush of the radiators and he has both the front and back door wide open.
Jazz the cat is not happy, he is a completely freaked out cat.We made it! All three boys have graduated, it's been hard work but it shows there is a possibility of a chance of normal (ish) life after a diagnosis (or two) of ASD. It's not been the easiest route but I am so glad I ignored everything and everyone and did my own therapies with them.

Can he be in a bedroom with a door closed and a litter tray? While the doors are open? An upstairs room might retain some heat for a while.
I know just how that feels SSue.
:D. Keep warm your self too. 0 -
He was in the front room with me and the door almost shut...the man now keeps coming in and out and leaving the door open! Jazz can't stay in one of the bedrooms, man is in and out of them more than the front room.

Ok,
I am decluttering
I have two art items from borrowed toddler....keep or let go...
An Easter egg picture from nursery and a scribble which a nursery teacher has helpfully translated the the contents as being
'Mauve squeaker' ( but an abbreviation of her real name not her screen name) 'big dark horse' and 'Booby' which is what he was calling me at the time. ( he was obviously very literal at the time..big dark horse and booby)0 -

Mine sleep under the covers usually. Which is much appreciated as I get very cold. 'Usual' is one on each side, but its not unusual for both to be on one side of me.
Mauve squeaker hates to have me turn my back on her. On a restless night if I am turning a lot she waits till I've turned lets out a little huffy sigh, gets up and walks round my head and snuggles down in to the crook of my arm again. Even if I move five times in ten minutes. :rotfl: If you cannot sleep she shuts sits awake with you purring and keeping you company.
One night fairly recently they curled up with fir and we all went to sleep. I woke up in the night ( not very usual for me, ) and saw the cats sitting just looking at his face and blinking at him.....'ah, he's so sweeeeeeet' sort of thing. Like we do to them.
I think she sits in various windows watching the world go by, which is what she will do after her 10 minute morning cuddle. It's interesting that she knows not to disturb us at weekends, the shower must be her cue.
She also dives undercovers when visitors come and will stay there until I find her and show her every room so she can see it is safe. This is what happened last week when the plumber came, so I feel for Sue and her cat right now.When using the housing forum please use the sticky threads for valuable information.0 -

When visitors come here ( without dogs) mine come and try and sit on them. This morning the cats acted differently....cleaners bring own vacuums. Mauve went upstairs to bed immediately. Pinky went to the room beyond the one they were doing and monitored, albeit less loudly that usual. Drills, hammers, pneumatic drills.....not scary. Vacuum......scary.0
