Wanted - A Dose of TLC

We had planned to join a group today for a walk in the Autumn Footprints Walking Festival but an emergency visit to the vets with Pom when his old problem flared up meant we were half an hour late and considerably lighter in the pocket.

Despite our best efforts to catch the group up we never did see the walkers. When we returned home Pom was in need of some TLC and followed me around the garden, rubbing round my legs. Do you know how difficult it is to photograph a cat who just wants you to sit down so he can climb on your knee? This is one of my best efforts and even this is slightly out of focus but doesn't he look sad?

Not A Happy Boy

Spinky's been to the vets today for an operation to remove a small lump from the top of his head. He's still a bit drowsy and not a happy boy at all. He's not moving about much but when he does, the collar keeps catching on the furniture and he can't figure out why he can't move forward. The collar has to stay on for a week until he goes back to have the stitches out. He's also got to stay indoors for at least a week - we're not sure who will go mad first, Splinky or us! A nice touch though was when we fetched him back after his op, he was sent home with a Get Well card.
