Mrs SC would like to show it at the local art show which is at the end of May. After that, she will send it to you and you can send a donation to Cats Protection. PM me the address you would like it sent to.
Right, back from working away so taking Millie down the shops tomotrrow to buy a ruck load of food for the rescue kitty cats then. Been in touch with CP; Luton & Dusnstable don't have a CP shelter they have a team of 10 foster carers so if I phone them up again when I have the food they will come and collect it. I will PM you the address for the pic SC when its been shown at the art fayre

The show was last weekend, and went well apparently, she sold a couple which is two more than most of the other exhibitors. So now we need the name and address and it will be on its way to you tomorrow.

My last photo of Scraggy. Yesterday we took the final trip to the vet.

2 and a half years after turning up a walking skeleton, all the food he could eat, all the drugs and operations he needed, usually with at least one shaved patch at all times, and free choice of seats (typically the one you just stood up from). He did well, but nature wins again.

Sorry to hear about scraggy, I guess there are some things that no amount of love or money can fix, as I found out with Pogull. I bet scraggy had an awesome life with you though and he loved you for it!

Good for you, at least Scraggy had a good retirement.

Our old Black Cat was the same, an old Bruiser that turned up, changed our lives, then pottered off to die two years later. Still miss the old Guy.

This is my contribution Smudge although everyone calls him Mudge. He will be a year old on June 16th and is taller than my 2 year old nephew when he stretches. (Forgive the dirty window handles they got cleaned seconds after this was taken)

You gave him the best years of his life & did the best thing you ever could for your friend

Really sorry about Scraggy cat. 8 years ago I accidentally landed myself with what turned out to be a palliative care foster-cat - Ollie cat had a brain tumour so less patches of shaved fur but a LOT more pharmaceuticals. Fortunately he was a good lad with a sub-cutaneous injection; it more than made up for his inclination to remove at the shoulder any hand trying to give him a pill.

I can only really second what's already said: you did a very good job indeed with him and I'm glad he enjoyed such love, comfort and fantastic care for such a long time.

I thought that was his name hehe

I once put my employee number on my name badge for a course, as a protest to being treated like a number - mine Fuehrer was not impressed.

Thanks for this and all the other posts of support.

Alan has also been keeping us entertained chasing string (which he's not done in well over a year), but then the extra fuss and play wore him out.

Cats and boxes again. Amazon have been a great supplier for our cat boxes over the years. They have taken to ripping them apart recently.

More black and white cats. One stretched out is our new owner. Think he is at home now. Worked out that chewing the alarm clock lead at 6am gets a result, DC not AC but either way you have to get up to stop him, trained us well he has. Always seems to start a minute or three before it goes off at 6 anyway.

Now. I know I'm not welcome here, after being generally unpleasant about cats generally, but I don't actually hate the damned things. Not even this fellow, who lives next door and was previously pictured eating a Pigeon on the back lawn.

Thing is, I've started to feel sorry for him. He's shut out of the house most of the day, and sleeps under a bush in our garden (one out front, another at the back, dependent upon the time of day/position of the sun.

Recently he seems to have been ousted as 'king of the castle' locally, and has been seen skulking about away from his usual comfortable perches. Most often atop a fence or gate...




...hopefully there's no bar on posting other people's cats wink
