Nicola's Cuba Countdown

Aww bless! I'm a crazy cat lady too, so can totally empathise ;) Mind you, our furbaby is an indoor cat (we rescued her at 8 years old and she'd always been an indoor girl) so I can't even imagine how stressful it would be to let her out on her own. I'm sure she'll be back for some cuddles and food soon xx

And in other news, my gorgeous little kitten Sophia was finally allowed out on her own for the first time tonight! Am currently nervously awaiting her return while watching Secret Eaters! Keep everything crossed for me, I put butter on her paws and everything, just hope she's sensible if she gets all the way to the main road! *Overprotective parent alert* :rolleyes:

Aw how cute, how old is she?

Why do you put butter on her paws? xx
 
Im a kitty lady too hehe, my poor baby was crying to go out when he was ready and i kept saying no lol then when he did venture out he went to next door thro a hole in the fence and i was like nooo come back, now a year and a half on hes out most of the time but hes always around in the gardens and hes always back for food lol, i dont blame you for worrying though x
 
She's back - phew! :D She's 10 months old - I got mine as a rescue cat too... her previous owners' daughter developed an allergy so instead of selling her / ringing the RSPCA / giving her away to a friend (any of the sensible things most people would do!) they chucked her out on the street to fend for herself :( Poor little angel, just lucky that a neighbour called the RSPCA after they noticed she wasn't being allowed back into the house or fed! How can people be so cruel? I might have kept her as a housecat but she has been driving me mental, she's been desperate to get out!

Here's a pic of my little monster from last night: WP_000278.jpg Isn't she a cutie?! :D

Apparently the butter on the paws helps them mark their tracks so they can find their way home from the scent of it :) Think you only do it the first time they go out x

I think Sophia's going to be out all the time too, she went out and came back again 3 times in total and think she would have headed back out if I'd let her! :D Next door have got a little boy kitten called Milo who looks almost identical to her, good thing he's still got his danglies so I can't get them mixed up! :D
 
She's beautiful! Those crystal blue eyes are just entrancing!! What type of cat is she? x

She's a birman. And a totally demanding little minx, but I wouldn't have her any other way. She's recently (at the ripe old age of 13) worked out that if OH leaves a shirt hanging on the door of the airing cupboard, she can pull on it and open the door meaning she can sleep in there. As if sleeping under our duvet wasn't warm enough! She does make me laugh x

Haha brilliant - the airing cupboard is one of Sophia's favourite sleeping places here! Have you had to rescue yours from any odd places yet? My boss had to tear out a kitchen cupboard after her kitten fell down the back! :eek:

My dad came round once to fit a new bath tap/shower thingy for us when i was at work and had to take the side panel off the bath to do it. Once he'd finished, he put the panel back on. When he went to leave, he looked for the cat to give her a fuss and couldn't find her. Eventually he took the bath panel off and there she was, curled up asleep under it!

Half Siberian? She's gorgeous!

Ours is very tolerant - I put a Christmas jumper on her last year. Admittedly she glared at me the whole time it was on, but still!

Love it!!! :D I would have lost an arm and probably half a leg if I'd tried to put that on my little Sophia! Brushing her is hard enough work!
 
I really hope so! She scratched all the fur out of her neck trying to get it off the last time I tried it :( x
 
Well.... today started well but didn't end so well haha!

Breakfast: Toast & Poached Eggs (HEB)
Snacks: Apple, Banana
Lunch: Uncle Ben's Rice Time Sweet & Sour (1.5 Syns)
Afternoon/Evening: ? x G&T (slimline), 1 x 175ml Rose Wine, 1 x Cosmopolitan

Not my best day!! But back on it tomorrow morning, getting up and writing my menu plan for the week (if the hangover isn't too bad!) and going shopping for all the food I need. One day off in 4 weeks isn't too bad :D

Hope you've all had good days?? x
