Petty Annoyances

Thankyou all for the sympathy and condolences on the death of the Ginger One , still sadly missed by all . People keep asking me where he is , he was locally infamous as a cat flapper and food stealer and for walking to school howling .
Are we getting another cat , the verdict is mmmmm , both me and the munchkin are lost without him, but a house cat wouldnt work with the kids always running in and out , Ive looked at rescue cats , simply cant afford one im afraid , plus we cant meet the criteria for them   , its made me realise why some rescues are flooded out with animals . theres a big difference between the mythical perfect happy ever after home and the reality of cats . They will live where they choose and do as they want i'm afraid .  We shall see , maybe something furry will come our way ?
I managed a Jumble Sale cum Summer Fayre at the Birchwood this week courtesy of my daughter and spent a whole 80p on tablecloths and £1 on a set of huge curtains for Young Baldrick , he stopped here for Easter Sunday and helped his dad with stage one of finishing the greenhouse construction started 4 years ago ..lol its going to be a long job as i now need decent fence treatment which is costly



. Then theres reopening the ebay shop , that is taking far longer than planned due to endless software and compatibility issues , even the pictures arent working , im sure i will figure it out or my IT expert will ..lol
Thanks to the election work is on hold as usual , im waiting to see if my cheque lands with interest , if it doesnt i think i will retire ...I wish

  3. We find that lots of people on boats have dogs but most rescues won't let you have a dog if you live on a boat

  4. A cat will turn up, I can almost guarantee it. I understand all the strict criteria for cat adoption but, as you know, cats adopt us. Who'd have thought Frank The Lump would move into our place two days after we lost our Polly Piglet to cancer? xxx

  6. When we were in a position to get a dog we didn't meet the criteria for a rescue one, despite trying lots of charities. Whilst I completely understand they need to ensure the animals are going to caring owners I feel they do miss out on a lot of loving homes.

    As others have said, your cat will find you :)
