Teddy took today’s photograph. It’s a festival of sleepy lilac, lilac-tabby and caramel Siamese-ness.

What can I say? It’s Isobel and Malteser. So exhausted, am no longer articulate. Zzzzzz …

Three cats cuddling up. These three have never been seen sharing a basket before.

The vet we saw today told us that Malteser is improving on his steroids and anti-biotics. But he needs to take them for another week. Malteser won’t mind because it means we’ll have to give him lots more freshly cooked treats with the tablets hidden inside.

Plus… the vet is Spanish, from Las Islas Canarias. We said ¡Hasta Luego y gracias! at the end.

Cats and ribbon – a perfect combination. Willow will play until my arm is tired and then come back and steal the ribbon when I’m not looking. An experiment today – because I don’t know how acceptable the quality of this BlackBerry video will be . . .

Teddy only realised he liked the cats a few months ago, so he hasn’t had much practice at picking them up. This picture from late last year shows Ted struggling to hold Cosmo, who is rather large and heavy. Luckily Cosmo is very patient too, so there are never any injuries, no matter how clumsy Ted may be.

Gorgeous Willow and Cosmo have bonded as only naughty boy cats can. Lots of play fighting and bum sniffing, I’m afraid.

Malteser has been sneezing lately, so we took him to the vet today. He howled the whole time he was in his carry box, but as soon as he saw the vet he calmed down instantly and started acting as if he was in a cat show. Magic vet’s touch…
He’s fit and healthy (although a little thin), but the vet thinks he’s allergic to something. Isobel and I have been speculating that he may be allergic to our new cats, Rosie and Willow. Anyway, we have to give him 4 tablets a day for five days. If you’ve never needed to do it, here are instructions on How To Give A Pill To A Cat.
