The big day is finally upon us. And I am ignoring Cat Daddy’s suggestion of giving Louis Catorze an extra pill tonight “just for a treat”. Covid has done its utmost to destroy Hallowe’en but, here at Le Château we have A Plan. London moved into Covid Tier 2 a fortnight ago, which means no…

Cat Daddy: “What were you ordering from Amazon at 7:30 this morning?” MERDE. I keep forgetting that the order notifications go through to his phone and not mine. Me: “Erm …” Him: “???” Me: “Erm … ahem … Hallowe’en costumes for [Puppy Mamma]’s dogs.” Him: “[Unrepeatable expletives]” Me: “…” Him: “Does she know that you’re…

Today is National Black Cat Day (U.K.). Of all the cat colours, black ones are the least likely to be adopted, apparently for the following reasons: 1. Black is regarded as a boring colour compared to tabbies, gingers and suchlike. 2. Black cats are apparently less photogenic than other cats. 3. People associate them with…
-
Louis Catorze’s course of eye ointment came to an end on Thursday. (It should have been Wednesday but I did an extra dose to make up for the night when we got drunk and forgot one.) Although administering it was horrible, towards the end of the course he’d even started coming for post-meds cuddles, although…

When I started planning my blog posts for October, I decided that I’d like to write about my horror movie nights with Louis Catorze. This was supposed to be that very post. Sitting in the living room and watching horror movies together is something that we both find great fun. However, instead, it’s a post…

The Wild Hunt, according to legend, is a cavalcade of spectral hunters, horses and hounds that glides through the sky. Any unwary folk who are out and about and who happen to catch sight of this spectacle are likely to be swept up by the spirits and carried away. Here at Le Château we have…
-
Mixed news from Le Château today: we were supposed/hoping to have reduced Louis Catorze’s steroids by now but we have had to increase them instead, because the inner corners of his eyes don’t seem to be healing. And applying his ointment is every bit as frightful as you would imagine. The good news is that…

It’s my birthday weekend. Under normal circumstances Cat Daddy would be taking me out to our favourite pub, but we won’t be going anywhere as he’s had a text from the NHS telling him to isolate for two weeks. (He received the text on Wednesday, asking him to stay at home for 14 days starting…

Although mythical monsters aren’t really a Hallowe’en phenomenon, watching shows about them always helps me to get into the Hallowe’en mood (not that I usually require any help in this area). The episode that Louis Catorze and I watched the other day was about a kind of part-buffalo, part-dinosaur creature called a hodag, said to…
-
I returned home from Halloweekend-by-the-sea on Sunday afternoon and, apart from Cat Daddy accidentally double-pilling Louis Catorze on Friday (and then wondering why he was so bouncy and show-offy during the Zoom call with his pub mates), the weekend passed sans incident in TW8. Yesterday I took Catorze to the vet. Unusually, there was total…

Oh. Saint. Jésus. As well as Hallowe’en being on a full moon this year, Mercury will also be in retrograde. This is a period said to occur around three times a year and, in short, everything goes wrong. Travel is disrupted, misunderstandings occur, that email that you think was sent isn’t received, and so on.…
-
Merde, merde and thrice merde: it really is kicking off at Le Château right now. Earlier this week, Cat Daddy found this object (below, with a 5p coin for scale) whilst sweeping up the leaves at The Front. He thought it was a piece of faux fur from someone’s coat, but a few enquiries among…
-
Saint Jésus et tous ses apôtres: Cat Daddy has seen three foxes run away from Louis Catorze at The Back. Je répète: three foxes, each weighing (I imagine) around 7-10kg, have RUN AWAY from our 3kg cat. The strange thing is that he didn’t even scream or hiss to send them packing; all he did…
-
Now that October is well under way, I can officially start filling Le Château with Hallowe’en paraphernalia without looking like a complete freak. Cat Daddy: “[Unrepeatable expletives.]” I have just discovered a website of fabulous seasonal decorations, and I am having to sit on my hands to stop myself from ordering because I can see…
