Cat puke: never fun to deal with, but even less fun when you hear the sound but then fail to find the evidence immediately. I’m still haunted by the time I heard Louis Catorze puking in 2018 (or maybe 2016, I don’t remember anymore) yet the puke remains undiscovered, to this day. One peaceful morning,…

Mothra is home! The little sod made it through her surgery, and she was a little lethargic but otherwise fine. She and her brother Rodan are segregated for now, for the good of Mothra’s recovery. And, according to my source, “Neither one is happy about this”. This is sad but we can’t trust either of…

What is the biggest challenge you will face in the next six months? I posted at the weekend about Louis Catorze’s cat-cousin Mothra, who had injured her tail in a scrap with a mystery cat. (The vet confirmed this from teeth marks in the wound – definitely another cat, not a fox or a dog…

I know that I must be getting old, because I love going to bed. We are conditioned to fear the dark and the creatures that lurk within its depths but, as soon as the eerie blue twilight period descends upon us, I start to feel cosy and cocooned. (Plus I know that the creature of…

A little while ago, I posted to say that I wouldn’t want more than one cat because I didn’t want the little sods ganging up on me. This remains true. However, another reason why a multi-cat situation wouldn’t suit me is because, if it’s not one needing veterinary treatment, it’s the other. You’ve seen what…

Last week I sent this meme to a friend, because she also has a cat called Beans: Truly, there was nothing more in it than a casual, “Look, this cat has the same name as yours!” It wasn’t supposed to be a command, nor a premonition of the future. However, the Cat Universe had other…

When I make tea in the morning and take it up to Cat Daddy, more often than not I find Louis Catorze occupying my spot in bed. My arrival displeases him so much that he jumps down and leaves the room. (Catorze, I mean, not Cat Daddy.) However, last week I refrained from bringing tea…
-
I often ask Cat Daddy if we can have another cat (and he always says no) but, in reality, I know that it probably wouldn’t work. This is not only because Louis Catorze has been the lone sovereign for all his life with us, but also because I couldn’t handle a team of the little…

When I want Louis Catorze to approach me so that I can administer his thyroid medication, the little sod is skittish and suspicious. I do my best to Act Normal, pretending to move around doing random household things so that he will let me slither ever-closer to him, but it doesn’t work; the slightest wrong…

Do you need a break? From what? If I were to mention an itchy black cat in a Cône, you would be forgiven for thinking that I were talking about Louis Catorze. However, this time it’s his cat-cousin Rodan who has come a cropper. Rodan could do with a break from scratching. However, the only…

Describe your most ideal day from beginning to end. Anything that doesn’t involve a vet visit is perfect. Even if I have to go to work. Even if I’m sick. Alien invasion, zombie apocalypse, whatever. Just not the vet, please. Louis Catorze has just been for his steroid jab. His last one was on 5th…

Our front room television never works first thing in the morning, with some unseen force appearing to have pulled cables loose. Now, I know that Louis Catorze may have previous when it comes to this kind of caper, but that was a long time ago and he’s calmed down since then, right? RIGHT? I tried…

What do you complain about the most? Louis Catorze is always complaining about something. Sadly, nobody knows what. His screaming is getting worse. Worse in volume, worse in frequency and worse in tone. The one thing that seems to shut him up is me picking up my phone to record it, which he’s absolutely doing…
