    Everyone (bar stripey who hasn't turned up yet) has been deflead.

    Pickle has had a telling off (not that she cared judging by the meow back lol) for jumping onto my dinner plate and running off with my chicken breast.

    Tired now

    :rotfl: It's a good thing Stripey was not witness to this, it might give him ideas. Dude's sister (Lisa) used to do exactly that kind of thing. We would have a morsel of food next to the plate, cooling off for her and, instead of waiting she would launch herself from the back of the settee and do a hit-and-run manoeuvre. She was a furry blur; one moment morsel was there, the next gone furever.

    I remember how I got my very first cat. It was raining heavily outside my house one day and I saw this cute white kitten shivering and getting wet in the rain. I immediately took her inside to my porch(we weren't cat lovers then) and gave her a piece and decided to keep her for the night.Next day when I checked her out she was burning with fever. I immediately took her to the vet. Vet said she needed proper care so that how snowbell became a part of our family.She is now five years old :)

    How does Stripey seem, Mellymoo?

    I can't understand why it takes a week to get blood test results back. Even in this backwater we are in, the small, not very sophisticated-looking from the outside (but excellent) veterinary practice we use do their own tests, in-house and you usually get them back the same day, even on a Saturday. Maybe they prioritise animals they already know are sick and/or in danger (as with lovely, little Lisa)

    Here's hoping Stripey's come back clear.

    OHs heart is breaking at how nervous and scared stripey is.

    I'm getting hIm used to my moving around whilst he's about stopping and giving dreamies regularly

    He's sill so thin poor boy

    He's had a full on proper rest just prettily asked for out so opened the door and reminded him to come home if he's tired, scared, cold, bored or hungry.
