Sirius (Black)

Miss Mouse and I spent a lovely few hours at my friend's house meeting her new cat, Sirius.

here we go again

Mr Borg has been grocery shopping for an impending zombie apocalypse. We will mostly be repelling them with pickled beetroot and crisps. Fortunately we also have a second line of defence:

Make yourself comfortable why don't you

This is really testament to the underlying strength of our Christmas tree (bought from Argos last year - mixed reviews on the website, I may have to add one stating 'withstands sturdy cat'). Branches may come out as they're the slot in type but the tree hasn't fallen over or collapsed under the cat yet. I'm impressed.

UPDATE: I never learn do I? Half an hour after posting that Toby ran into the tree at warp speed and knocked the whole thing over. Took both cats another half hour to un-bottlebrush their tails!

Instant artiness

Just add frost!

A grand day out

It was the Christmas event at Kittochside and we were determined to get the kids out in the fresh air. This is my (much-photographed) Favourite Tree, on the way up to the farm. As you see, a bit of a thaw since the last blog-post!

And this is view from the stackyard.

There were still some patches of snow but it didn't seem to bother the sows.


Ah, I do like the piggies!

About to head back down the hill for a very late lunch.

Then we got home, put up the Christmas tree and somebody made a beeline for it!
