He is endlessly entertaining (when he isn’t being bad)

I only caught the tail-end (pardon the pun) of his full tail-chasing extravaganza this morning, but it makes me laugh every time he does it. Which is surprisingly often considering he is a grown cat and should really know that’s … Continue reading

The newest members of my household have arrived!

They were eagerly greeted at the door by Arthur and Josephine (and me, if I’m honest). Do you know what it is yet? Of course you do! Isn’t it pretty? It’s all shiny and candy apple red! Unfortunately, I neglected … Continue reading
