JackSpratt - thankfully the pain has now died down a bit and the temperature too!
We'd discussed that Dinah might not be a temporary guest before we took her, but were hoping her Mum would get better and it made us feel less like we were replacing the Proot (as if!). Her Mum cried with relief when her daughter told her we'd taken her in. She has a very aggressive rescue cat so there was no way she could take Dinah. It is sad but at least she can concentrate on getting well.
I think we're destined to be in the right place at the right time for needy black and white oldies
She has just turned 18 apparently!
She is a lovely girl
Do keep us updated, don't think we've had a pic for quite a while either
You're right! How rude of me!
