Poorly Oscar

Oscar has recently been very poorly and not at all in the mood for play.

He had to make a couple of trips to the vet which would have made him even grumpier as he does not like his travel basket. He also would have howled all the way there and back. Boy, for a cat, he can make quite some noise.

He's having to take medicine everyday and is on a special low fat diet (!) but I'm pleased to say that he's much, much better now and everyone is making a big fuss of him.

Hope it won't be long before he's ready to play again. In the meantime, I'm giving lots of cuddles.

Please...

I'm finding that I'm having to work a little harder on my pleading face. It's an art really - pleading without being a nuisance (which sometimes leads to me being sent to my bed). You have to look just irresistible enough that they can't say no.

 This was tonight's attempt...

Finding this didn't work, I put my nose a bit closer..

Too much?

It's My Birthday!

So, today is my birthday and there is much excitement in the house!

The day started with an extra big breakfast. What a great start to the day! Then we all went out for a long walk in the snow.

I ran around a lot

Woop!

Here I am doing super-fast running.

I peered through the gate to make sure all was well with the sheep...

It was.

Now I'm back home where I got a piece of toast without even asking.

I can't wait for the rest of the day. I wonder if there'll be more food?

I'm off for a little snooze. I love birthdays.

#snowday

So, today has been GREAT.
In my corner of the UK we have had snow.

No1 - I love snow - it's so fluffy! (That is a quote from one of my favourite films).
No2 - Everyone came out for a long walk.
No3 - I had my first proper snowball fight - they threw snowballs at me and I ran at them full pelt..seems fair
No4 - On my return, I had leftovers from Sunday lunch. Result.

Today has been a good day :)

Here are some photos of me enjoying myself...

This is me trying to avoid a direct hit

Do I have something on my nose?

The New Iron

I do not like the sound of the new iron. I will bark continuously when it is used. That is all.

Just Snuggling

It's a rainy, cold kind of day.

Just snuggling..

Dirty Dog

Today has been a good day. All started off well as far as my folks were concerned. Off we went for our walk as usual and I think I was looking pretty smart..

I did lots of smiling and running at full pelt..

I happened across a particularly satisfying area of orchard that turned out also to be a teensy bit muddy..

If I close my eyes they can't see me either

I'm going to get a bath aren't I?
