just catching up for news on kitties. Love the sit spot in your garden. That is gorgeous. Nice bonus too.Made it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became
In the event the proverbial hits the fan then co-habitees are better stashing their cash than being mortgage free !!1 -
They are getting happier around us - still a bit frit but George is starting to like strokes and stood on Mr KK’s lap for 10 seconds this evening 😊 Chloe is a feisty little madam and very dominant but I bought a cat cave bed (very soft and cwtchy) and she was straight in there this evening, kneading and purred for the first time! 🤩😂 They have the run of the house now and there hasn’t been too much damage (just a few things knocked over - probably during zoomies) or accidents. They are making us smile 😊Watty1 said:just catching up for news on kitties. Love the sit spot in your garden. That is gorgeous. Nice bonus too.

Oh, not quite true. The cyclops ex stray very occasionally sleeps in the Precious Princesses dogs bed, just to reinforce the pecking order. The Precious Princess dog sleeps on the carpet next to her bed looking resigned but fed up.My mortgage free diary: +++ Divide by Cucumber Error. Please reinstall universe and reboot+++
