The love of LooLoo

I have been ill of late. Knackered would be a good description.

Joints have played up, as per usual.

I couldn't get out of bed. Bones too heavy to move. It is not nice and very irritating... not being able to get up or even get to the loo on time!!

I have read up on my condition and it does not make for happy reading. I have to see the quack...quickly and perhaps sort out a will.....

Anyway....there was I.....sat on dining chair at the side of the bath..trying to get bones warmed up. Legs in hot water. You see..no way could I manouvre bod into the bath and out again!!! lol So next best thing is to dangle feet into water and hope ankle joints come back to life.

So, LooLoo jumps up on my knee. She is the most delicate looking of the mogs. A slight little soul. She demands beings petted....stroked. So, I do, even though my hand was twice the size as usual. Ten mins later I am fed up..worn out. Nope...Miss L demands more....so I stroke her more and more. This goes on for AGES. See...Miss L knows that I need to exercise the old joints so what could be better that stroking her? lol

The other cats have a knowing look, too. Been keeping my body warm, as I have been bed bound. I honestly felt like my bones were made of ice and bones were about to break. They would not leave me. Maybe they felt bad, too? They certainly 'talked' to me...especially Muppet of all mogs!! She's been tucked up near me all the while, which is unusually brave of her:o)) xx Even the dog has been clingy.

So, today I feel better and the mogs and dog are being spoiled rotten. Tuna is on sale at the local shop. 2 tins for a quid! Woo hoo!!

Next door neighbour is fighting the big C. Fought it 5 times and won. It's back....no 6. I pray neighbour will see this round off, too. Could not meet a nicer person. Life is not fair sometimes, is it?

Anyway...Thank you, my babies for looking out for me:o)) xx

Today, two days later the swelling is down to near normal.

Our Babies

A few piccies of Bartie and his siblings when they were wee babies.

We are having problems with the stalker woman and her gang, again. Just proof, incase the pc goes awol!!

Sprawled out on the bed

Henry, Tinks, LooLoo, Bart and Ringo










Snoozing kitten bundle. Amazing how they are all so different ...and from a Calico. x

Wee baby Bart with Olive's leg! lol

Warm Arse

Ah.....we have plenty of mogs in this house:o)

Muppet is one of 'The Old Ladies'. A right old feline.......but gives us a run for our money:o)

She's a sweet, little old thing. But, a wiley old sod.

Anyway, I think she's cool, She knows the best places to warm her feline arse.

The top of TV is good :o))...even if you are only ever watching dvd's.

What am I going to do with you, Dear Dog?

Water trough outside garden room. Covered with metal sheet, which sometimes 'slips' off.

Water trough has been frozen of late, due to snow and freezing weather.

Dog goes in and out via back door of garden room into garden.

Dog barks to come in when she is ready:o)

When barking, dog sometimes sits on top of metal sheet which is covering water trough.....you know where this is going!!!

No more frozen water trough, due to thaw.

Dog not too bright today:o)

Wet dog! lol

Hots

Good news.

The dog is back to normal. No more season:o)

Bad news.

Ringo....neutered Ringo...keeps 'having a go' at Honey Pot.

Sigh.......

Shhhhhhh

Seven cats are currently asleep on my bed.

Another is asleep on my rocking chair..snuggled in a patchwork quilt. Muppet is snoozing underneath it and Spooky is wrapped around the warm central heating radiator.

Jimmy is in the airing cupboard. .......arghhhhh!!!! He can have it. I have long stopped storing the clean bed linen in there.

Dog is sprawled out, comatose, by my feet.

So, where is Tinkabelle?

Curled up, fast asleep on the glass-topped coffee table.

Funny cat!! lol

The Tail of Tinks

Tinkabelle managed to escape into the garden today.

She's one of the mogs who is normally busting a gut to get out there!!!

Well, off she shot as I was letting the dog out......and then, after a bit, all I could see was a little brindle tail going down the garden! Snow is so deep in the back. lol Little panic miaows were heard, so Junior rescued her.

Cat was not best pleased with the cold and complained loudly once back in. Snow looks fun from her viewing pod in the back bedroom... where it's warm. lol
