Just another day in the office.

Cute!

No bits the the cat's ears missing. So I suspect she/he is an indoor cat.

A good book is remarkably comfortable.

Flick She is mostly indoors. She goes outside if I am home and only during the day - doesn't leave the back yard. Had a rough start to life so she keeps close to the house.

We've been fostering dogs for many years, but earlier this year Karen (aka Mrs 2905) suggested we take on a mother cat and six kittens whose time in the Kempsey pound was just about up. (She knows that I'm more of a cat person than a dog person.) Their DOB is 26/1/2021 (Australia Day), we got them in early March, and here's a photo of them in mid-March.....


And Mum ("Casey").....


Unbeknown to us at the time they came pre-loaded with some sort of feline coronavirus, for which there's no treatment. All you can do is support them through it. So support them we did, but despite Karen's best efforts (she used to be a vet nurse), the little tabby and white guy ("Oscar") didn't make it. It broke our hearts, and I'm tearing up just typing this.

Fast-forward to now and they've been doing well for a good while. One of them ("Mouse") goes to her new forever home later this month. Another ("Gracie") seems destined to become our first feline foster failure. That leaves the only other male kitten ("Tux"), the other two female kittens ("Blaze" and "Shelley"), and the mother cat ("Casey"), looking for forever homes.

This is Mouse....


This is Gracie....


This is Tux....


This is Tux when he's not unloading the dishwasher....


This is Blaze.....


And this is Shelley (with Tux in the background)....

.... timeshared with our current foster dog ("Audrey"), also available for adoption. Package deal, anyone?

Some photos of our existing feline family; Zara (l) and Bailey (r)....


Like most Bengals, Zara likes water....


Whereas this is how Bailey prefers water....


Make of this what you will....

Bailey's nesting!
I do find that our cats (and Bailey apparently) are sometimes very much like chooks. Although chooks clearly aren't in the same academic stream.

Flick is not a snowcat. She keeps going outside expecting that it won't still be snowing.

Maybe she is worried about this?

 

[chelzmalee]

Snow still on the ground but the sun has returned, and Flick is very happy about it.

I was trying to watch the footy but it turns out I’m a better ‘electric’ blanket. Luckily it wasn’t my team playing or Juno won’t have found this was a stable location.

An update on the foster kittens....

Some friends of friends came around to see them during the week, and are going to take Blaze. Karen said that she could've rehomed Gracie a hundred times, if we weren't keeping her. She is so chilled and fits in so well with our existing menagerie. Here are a couple of recent photos....





When her personality (if that's the right word for a cat) started to become obvious, I went back and had a closer look at a couple of very early photos that I knew I had taken, but hadn't paid much attention as to which kitten it was. Sure enough, it was Gracie on both counts....

I always said if my commbank shares got to $100, I’d sell them and buy an RS200.

We may however have to sell them and remortgage the house to pay Maxie’s vet bills, sigh.

He has been out of sorts again, not wanting to eat and no poo. Off to the vet, xray shows some blockage and possible inflammation. Operation tonight, if all is well he can come home tomorrow. If there are issues he made need a part of the bowel removed. I’m off to NZ tomorrow, fortunately I’ll only be gone a few days, the boss gets another knee done next week and I had the last of a root canal treatment this morning.
It seems I have 4 canals on that tooth, rather than 3! Aren't I lucky!
Won’t bother with a lottery ticket for a while.
Even the boss has said she may have to go back to work.
