Comfy Are We?

I caught one of my kittens, Leo in the box my new iron came in, couldn't not take a couple of pictures!

I haven't done a Moses and Leo kitten update in a while, so will be taking some pictures and doing a post soon. They are both doing well and love playing outside together.

A Kitten update

It has been a while since my last post about my kittens Moses and Leo, so I thought I would write a quick update. They have grown so much!

This is Leo having an afternoon nap (yes I covered him with a blanket!)

We have started letting them out on a Sunday afternoon for a play in the garden. We stand there with them to keep an eye on them. I am still nervous about letting them out properly.

They are doing well and have their own characters, Moses is more relaxed and is quite happy to plod along and talk. Leo is very fiesty and energetic and will run up and down the stairs, climb up the curtains.

Some more Lush

I went down to Exeter for some Christmas shopping, I got dad Senna on DVD, I watched it a while ago and it is such an amazing documentary film. I also stopped by Lush again and picked up some more goodies. I have to admit these are for me, I couldn't resist.

Another bottle of Snow Fairy, this is my second bottle and I am going to store this one away and crack it open in a few months. I also went through my Cup Cake fresh face mask which I loved, but I wanted to try a different one so I bought Love Lettuce. I also picked up Bubblegum lip scrub which smells just like Snow Fairy. Love.

Excuse the blurry picture but Moses and Leo snuck into the Lush bag to see what I had brought home.

I think I have stocked up with more than enough Lush products for a while.

Moses and Leo - a kitten update

We recently took Moses and Leo to the vets for their kitten injections and first check up, the vet was lovely and was impressed at how well they are growing and putting on weight. Both boys were so well behaved whilst having their worming tablet and jabs, they didn't cry out at all. We have to take them back in about three weeks for their second round of kitten injections.

Both boys were so well behaved in the waiting room, which is more than I can say for some other animals. Well, to be fair, it is not the animals fault, but the owner. A woman who had a rather excitable dog came bouncing out the examination room, the dog was barking and jumping up and my poor babies were so so frightened. They huddled in the back of their basket shaking. What annoyed me is that the woman just wasn't doing anything to calm her dog down, she was just letting it run riot in the waiting room. Grrrr. 

The twin's progress

I got a some lovely comments from people when I posted about the new kittens, Moses and Leo. They have both grown so much since we last got them and they are doing well. I went to the vet a few days ago and they are going to go in for their kitten jabs soon. They are still too young to get 'fixed' so that will come at a later date.

At the moment I am trying to get them used to being outside, so I have a kitten/cat harness, they seem to like exploring the garden. Some idiot came zooming around the corner on the road which spooked the kittens a little, but they are ok.

I will keep you all posted on their progress!

They are being a little naughty because whenever I do a load of washing they sneak into the conservatory and pick socks off the clothes horse and carry them off. I keep finding socks under the bed or table.

The twins!

As already mentioned in my last post, we went to collect a kitten (or two) on Friday after work. Well, we went for two! They meowed all the way home which was horrible, but they soon settled down and had some food, used their litter and explored their new home. 

They wind each other up, chasing each others tails, but they also do everything together! If one uses the litter, the other will hop in too, also if one jumps on the sofa to go to sleep the other snuggles in next to him. They are both little boys and we haven't really decided on names yet!

We have thought of calling one Butter and the other Scotch, or Leopold and Horatio!  At the moment they respond to 'kitten' or 'baby'. Does anyone have ideas for kitten names?

Furry four legged friends

I am definitely a cat lover. 

I begged my parents to let me have a kitten when I was little, they finally gave in after much persuasion and  a little black and white fur ball was brought into our home. I called him soggy (proper name Tom kitten)


He lived to the grand old age of 16 when, he had to be put to sleep. The most horrible decision I have ever had to make, but the vet said it would be kinder as he was so so ill. My whole family was distraught  and it took a long time to grieve. My dear old friend now has a final resting place underneath a nice tree at my parents house.


A while later we got a new kitten, who I named Archie. He is a Maine coon cross and he is not even 6 months old yet. Look how ma-hu-sive he is! Tiny kitten to hefer in no time at all!

 Little kitten.....

massive cat not even 6 months old!!

Archie lives with my parents (I live about ten mins away from them with my fiance) and I swear he gets bigger every time I see him. Pets can bring such joy into our lives and become part of the family. Do you have any pets?
