LINDSAY SELBY: A Cat Update

The only photo I have been able to get of Eustace so far is this one of him peering through the stairs. The kitten is, however, very curious so has no fear of the camera lens. Both cats are doing well. Clarice kitten is just a joy but you find me very tired this morning because I stayed up most of the night with her. She kept crying and I thought she was ill.(I say crying...more like squeaking). However, she seems fine this morning so I suspect she just wanted a cuddle. Eustace enjoyed having an early breakfast as I was downstairs from 4am so fed them at 5.30am.

Eustace is spending more and more time downstairs now and actually got up next to me on the sofa last night for a few minutes and let me stroke him for a few seconds. This is from a cat who just over a week ago wouldn't come out from under the bed. He has been nicknamed 'Mystery cat' by a friend as he looks like he is wearing a superhero mask and cloak when you see him close up. Clarice has been nicknamed 'turbo mog' due to the amazing turn of speed she has when she runs into the kitchen.

I am just so pleased to have them here after three days with no Baggins cat; I felt lost and the house was too quiet and too tidy. What a blessing pets are: they keep you going because you have to care for them and keep you on your toes. Clarice is due her second set of vaccinations in a week so this will be an adventure for her; the trip to the vets. Probably be an adventure for me as well if her current behaviour is anything to go by lol.
