Re: Fluffy needs an operation!
Thanks so much Shelly. I'm relieved to know that you would do the same. You're so right when you say that Fluffy is strong. She absolutely must be to keep going with so many health problems. She's so very sweet and affectionate. She forgave me from the moment she got back home and has continued bein...

Fluffy needs an operation!
Not the news I was expecting. Took my little girl this afternoon for blood tests for renal and thyroid. Last time it was a nightmare as she was so stressed and the vet couldn't do it. I talked to him about how to reduce the stress this time. Whilst he was examining her before he ran the blood result...

Re: Rescue Remedy
Thanks so much Shelly. I feel guilty already. She's in a very affectionate and happy mood at the moment which makes it worse. I'll be glad when it's over. Hugs and fusses to you and Dora xxx

Re: Rescue Remedy
Awww Jan :D That has just made me laugh so much. I've had a look back at Eric's picture many times on the other thread and it is such a familiar expression! Fluffy looks at me like that. Even when she's purring Please thank Eric for his message. I won't show it her ladyship just yet or it might give...

Re: Rescue Remedy
Hi Jan. Poor Georgie. He's such a gorgeous boy. Yes the normal rescue remedy is absolutely fine. I use it for Fluffy. In fact I'm using it today as I have to take her to vets later this afternoon. Best place to put it is on top of head, half way between the ears. I apply it directly but you can put ...

Re: It's baby bird season again
Great photo Mark :D We don't have any grey squirrels where we live now but I have to say I do sort of miss the regular battles I had with them over the feeders. They outsmarted me every time :) Fluffy's hunting days are well and truly over. She goes as far as sitting on the doorstep chattering at th...

Re: News of Mr Socks - for those who aren't 'Dashers'
I know it wasn't planned but some of the best things never are :) He clearly loves being with you and wants to be your companion. He sees you as his Mum!! He wouldn't have appreciated what you did for him in September but now he is being rewarded with a home and all the love he deserves. Give him a ...

Re: Edgar update
Hi Sarah. Yes I'm sure Fluffy would agree totally with you about the spending of money and she'd probably add that you are only taking poor Edgar to the vet again on Saturday to stop you getting bored :D It is a shame that he is facing all this at such a young age. But he is definitely coping with i...

Re: Edgar update
Hi Sarah. Sorry I've only just noticed this. Nothing further to add I'm afraid. I did look into FGS when I thought Harvey had a problem with his gums. Sadly it wasn't that. It is certainly worth asking your vet about it and to check it out. Poor Edgar. I keep forgetting he had 12 teeth out. He's cop...

Of course Julie. You must let us know how you get on with your Mom xx
I can just picture Barney sitting there looking at you. I wish I could meet him in person. He sounds like such a character. Keep getting comfort from him. He'll never tire of giving it to you. Lovely boy xx

You will be able to cope on Saturday. I know you will. Do it for your Mom. But don't worry if you get upset because she is the kind of person who will totally understand. Hope she enjoys her trifle. You are so fortunate to have a mom who is a best friend too. Not many people have that!! Will be thin...

Re: Fluffy in discomfort
Oh Julie. I am so terribly sorry. What a shock that is. How sad that your mom had given up smoking all those years ago and has still got this awful disease. Having just the one lung must have made her so more vulnerable though like you say. She sounds incredibly brave and very accepting of what is h...

I had a bit of a panic earlier. Couldn't find Fluffy anywhere. Checked all her beds and all hiding places. This is where I found her. In the box I got from Spar for my shopping. It has been a bit of a favourite recently. She is still in it now sleeping and snoring happily. For once she's got quite a...

Re: Peaches hurt
The pain must have gone now then if she can do a good proper yawn. So glad it gave you a chance to check her teeth at the same time . She's improving all the time little by little which is such a relief for you I'm sure. Hoping she'll feel up to playing with her best buddy soon.

Oh wow Jan
That's a killer of an expression!!! Fluffy's got more competition then (other than Helen's Grumpy Nellie).
He is still a gorgeous cuddly boy. Would love to pick him up right now and give him a squeeze. Wouldn't want to interrupt his finking though

You do know your little girl best and it sounds like she is not suffering any negative effects from the reduction of metacam. If it doesn't bother ...
