    Good morning, Mellymoo. Pickle is sounding more like a teenager every day. :D

    If Stripey is spraying, he has definitely decided he's staying, imho.

    She is in teenage mode smodlet
    She offers a cuddle or goes to OH to get own way when I have said no.

    Stripey sprayed in there because it is currently madam's safe place I think.
    He is staying with us just not here all the time lol PH pointed out we are a supper, bed and breakfast.

    Another couple of weeks he should be strong enough for nad removal lol.

    He's very forceful with his cuddles
    And got told off for snatching last night (was giving him the webbox sticks broken up he grabbed my hand with his fish hooks)

    Hey, Mellymoo,

    I am sorry I missed your post about your job before. I am just too keen for furry updates!

    I left a temp job once to go to another I was told was permanent. When I got there, it turned out to be temp and totally !!!!. It can be a case of jumping from the frying pan into the fire but if your current role is making you ill, perhaps it is time to consider your options. Is calling in sick for a day to attend your interview a possibility, at all? I know some people have strong feelings about doing this but think you have to do what is best for you.

    I wish you the very best of luck, whatever you decide to do and look forward to hearing your news.

    Cheers! S x

    That's fine smodlet, the kiddiewinks (OHS name for all of the furries) are one of the reasons it's not working.
    Froo is making herself sick
    Madam pickle is not enjoying the lack of mummy play/cuddle/play time

    Stripey is in love with me and now loves cuddles and play

    Boo is mising OH, who has the delicate tricat negotiations to be part of.

    Tomcat he seems to quite like quality time lol

    OH I haven't seen him except in passing since I started and I miss him

    My OH used to call them "kids" as well!

    "Tricat negotiations", I love that.

    I think it is important to get the "work/life" balance right for you. After all, you can never get time back, once it's gone.

    Follow your heart and listen to your gut, Mellymoo, if I may presume to offer an opinion.

    I know you have lived in multicat household's smodlet, it is most definitely tricat negotiations.

    Currently the new two love my OH but I am favourite pickle is put out that stripey gets any attention, stripey is being sneaky and scenting her stuff, tomcat is so chilled he doesn't care lol. I spend my time at home, cleaning up froo widdle or stripey spray, doing cat litter, walking dogs, cooking and asleep.

    I gotta ask, Mellymoo, where did you get all these cool names from? Boo and Froo! :rotfl: Excellent. And Pickle? Are they just names that stuck?

    Boo is short for Booboos (he's actually called Laursen)
    Froo rhymes with Boo (she's actually called Freya)
    Trinket is tomcat's other name
    Pickle is a little pickle (apparently sometimes I don't understand my OH) I call her picallili which is more feminine in my odd head lol - obviously called Foxy
    Stripey is called stripey by me and Tigerbabies by OH.

    I used to have
    Jaspa - she was a girl cat black and white
    PomPom - she was snow white cat they were litter sisters
