I didn't see a catalogue - I will see if they are online. Thanks  :)

I like the rad bed - ours is like a V and even Willow has trouble getting comfortable. I like the L shape - where did you  :Luv2:get it?

It's from the CP Christmas Gifts catalog, Mark.  ;)

Jumpy has been looking at it, but a bit nervous, and we think he's working out whether or not it'll hold his weight - him being a cat of 'generous proportions'. :evillaugh:

What a lovely idea.  So glad Tilly is safe and sound - when we had Gizmo he had been missing for 10 days are turned up safe on Christmas day itself.  What a relief that was. 



aww,  what a happy ending  :) I love tiny cats, we have a feral called Little Blackey and I do love that cat because he doesn't really bother with the other ferals and he seems too timid about getting the food, I'm so pleased that he's taken to sleeping in the cosy kennel lately.


We feed a feral we call "Little Black" along with her companion "Mr Muesli".... :)

I was beside myself all the time she was gone. She's 14, had very few teeth and is such a small puss that most people think she's still a kitten. It was the middle of winter she went missing - heavy frosts, not to mention the fireworks on bonfire night. We really thought she wouldn't make it.  :'(

Nothing is too much trouble for her now - I'm just thrilled she likes her new bed.  :evillaugh: :naughty:

My Tilly's Christmas

I wanted to share this with you guys.  :briggin: :hug:

Last Christmas was awful for us as Tilly had been missing for over 2 months. We never stopped hoping she would return and be alright but as they days went buy, our hope was fading.  :'( Finally, and by some miracle, I spotted her while leaving for work early one morning in January. She had lost weight and was very scared and shabby from weeks living as a stray.  :( But we were elated at having her home and I swore a promise that this Christmas would be the best she ever had. ;)

I had never tried a radiator bed before as I really thought the cats wouldn't understand what it's for. I imagined it would sit unused and that would be a waste. But as a special present, I bought one for Tilly as an experiment and the pictures show the results.  :naughty:

Tilly was also first to have a portion of turkey, which I cut up really small for her owing the fact she has no teeth left. OH made a special gravy from the pan juices and gave her a bowl of it along with the turkey.  :)
