It was ten years ago today that a little possum-like creature slunk out of the cat carrier, looked round our living room and promptly jumped up on OH's lap
To this day he says it's because she saw he had a cheque book out
It being the festive season, we cooked a turkey on Christmas Day later that same week. I was out collecting my mum but OH told me that as the smell of cooking turkey began to waft from the oven, Blip let out a long, loud miaow of anticipation. She must have thought all her Christmasses had come at once, to coin a phrase
A decade later, that skinny, nervous little thing is now sleek, plump and in charge here at Chateau Blip: happy Blipmas, Blippy
