Friday Flashback and Caturday Art.

 This flashback comes from October 2010 and is called:

No Mousies Today.

Dad had been working in the bottom field so we thought we would go down there and see him. Suddenly we heard a noise so had to stop and listen.

Flynn: I'm not sure where the noise came from, you look left and I'll look right, then whatever it was, we're sure to see it.

Eric: Hmphh, well I don't see anything. There's nothing this way so you better look left instead and I will look right. I won't miss anything.

Flynn: Whatever it was seems to have gone. Let's check the long grass and have a nom.

Flynn: Come on Eric, that's enough nomming for now, we are supposed to be going to watch dad.

Eric: Okay, I'm coming but I think I need a rest.

Flynn: Oh all right but not too long or dad will be finished down here.


Flynn: There, what did I tell you, dad's gone back so we might as well too. Come on slow coach.

Eric: If I lie in this grass, no-one will see me and I won't get shut back in the garden. Better still, Flynn might come back to look for me and then I can pounce on him.
Flynn: Eriiiiiiiiiic! Mum's got the Greenies out.
Eric: Wait for me, I'm coming.

Friday Flashback and Caturday Art.

 This flashback features Flynn on nip overload. Don't worry, I will put a short post at the end for Eric.

Mum gave me some nip on my cat tree. (The tree Eric can't get his fat butt on.)
First of all I like to scrape it up a bit to release the heavenly smell.

Then I rub my head in it.

A bit more head rubbing just for good measure.

I get so excited that I put the bitey on the curtain.

It's a good idea to use your paw to make sure you've got the nip rubbed into your face extra good.

Make sure you hold on to your cat tree though. You don't want to fall off backwards and get laughed at.


Mum took this video of me, but I got so excited that I stuck my sharp claw in her hand. You can hear her say ouch. Haha! Turn the sound up to hear my huge happy purr!

And a Tummy Tuesday for Eric.

I love to get on these concrete blocks. The sun makes them nice and warm.

And when I'm warm I like to show my tummy. I'm all ready for some tummy rubs and chin scritches so who is first?

For Flynn I started with Grey at 45%, then brought some colour back with Psychedelic also at 45%.


For Eric I used Illusion at 55%, then calmed it down a bit with Sadness at 30%.

Friday Flashback and Caturday Art and Update.

First of all for anyone who hasn't seen my update on my other blog I have copy and pasted it here as the first paragraph..

I rarely put updates on this blog but want to share my good news with everybody. I had a CT scan two weeks ago and went for my consultation on Monday. I have had six months of chemotherapy which has not been easy, but I got there. The results of my scan are that the original cancer lesions on my bowel have shrunk, very small and hard to see. The newest lesions which had spread to my liver are now dormant! I will go onto hormone tablets to try and keep them like that, but don't start until the New Year to give my body chance to recover. It is the best Christmas present I could have hoped for and I want to tell the world!!

I hope I didn't miss anyone out, but I said thanks at the time for all the lovely cards and good wishes. If I did miss anyone I apologise. It was support from so many friends that helped me and Ivor get through this, and all the prayers have worked. Thanks in particular to Ann at Zoolatry and Cecilia at My Mind's Eye for organising the card shower. At the last count I had exactly 90 cards, and thank you all once again for all the support.


This week the flashback comes from October 2010, and was a Miscellaneous Mancat Monday.

Eric: It is a bit of a mish mash today and first we have me with the flower.

Flynn: Now I will show you how to pose properly Eric.

Eric: Helping dad dig out his trench.

Eric: Hey! Watch where you are peeing Flynn!

Flynn - Camouflage Cat.




Eric: I love our new drinking fountain and like to play with it too. If you turn your sound on you will hear mum yell at me. Flynn likes to drink from the stream but doesn't play with it.

Friday Flashback and Caturday Art.

This week the main flashback is from September 2010 and is from Eric.

Oops!

Eric: Where the horses walk along one of the steep slopes in the field, they have worn it away into ledges. I like to go there to roll because there is a lot of nice earth to roll on.

Oops, I seem to be going downhill.

Never mind, just keep on rolling.

Huh! I'm sure I wasn't this far down.

How did that happen? I'm nearly down the bottom.

Flynn: You are silly Eric. 

And a Tummy Tuesday from Flynn, also from September 2010.

Hehe! Eric didn't realise it was Tuesday so you have got my tummy today. He's going to be mad when he sees I have beaten him to it.
