DD has ordered her a cat surgery suit, it was £32 😱 At least it will come in handy for after she’s spayed IF she’ll wear it. An inflatable collar sounds like a good option if she won’t wear the suit.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)5

SA, baby clothes can also be used on cats to stop them from getting to wounds/anything you don’t want them to pick at.
As you say though, it depends if you can get it on them! Good luck. 👍🏻Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts. Car loan 1 £11,174, Car loan 2 £5,532, CC 0% BT £780. Debt Free Diary to try & keep spending in check.4 -

Caught - fab news about your pots and the gym refund
🤣 kitten and sausages - so far this week - H the Hooligan has broken 2 dessert plates trying to pre wash and managed to get the butter out of the butter dish from
a high cupboard ( where it gets hidden I left the door open ) and helped himself to biscuits (door left open 😆).The Only tip I can give forgetting a good night sleep is we shut them In two rooms at night with a littler box - and water - The other side of the bungalow not near our bedroom
Good luck on WednesdayAs a dear MSE friend says “keep plodding” or

Just another Manic Monday 🥱
Have just emerged from a very busy work morning plus a lunchtime visit to the park with the dog.
Not a NSD as had to go and fetch some loo rolls and bread this morning.
The gym refund has gone into the bank, that was quicker than I thought. I've put it to one side for now.
Some oddments in the current account have gone to the Christmas pot, now £107.12. Also sent £100 to the emergency fund, now £6100.00
The surgery suit for the kitten arrived, it's way too big for her. Bless her she didn't like it and collapsed flat on the floor as if it weighed a ton 😆 I think a plan B is required. I can remember the cat at a local pub having a bandage type thing round her when she was spayed so will look into something similar.
My new WW cookbook has arrived and there are loads of nice recipes in there to try.
Finished reading Lullaby, quite a disturbing book about a nanny who murders the children she looks after. It was good though. I've picked up another book that's been on my shelves for some time The Village Green Affair by Rebecca Shaw. Felt I needed something a lot lighter after Lullaby.
Going to put my step count goal for this week up to 16k a day. Got a WW live HIIT class after work, also going to take the dog on the park again.

Morning, happy Tuesday.
The Mr M order has just been delivered and packed away. No missing items or subs, they're getting good at this 😆
Didn't have a great night's sleep but can't blame the cats this time, more like pre-interview nerves, one day to go. I will be so glad when tomorrow is over.
Today's to do (other than WFH):- Spanish
- Interview prep
- Clean kitchen
- Exercise: morning walk, lunchtime dog walk, live WW bums and tums and live WW resistance band session
- See what I can declutter from the fridge/freezer/cupboard for tonight's dinner
