Amusing, and sad

Was reading Ring for Jeeves the other day and burst out laughing. Colonel Aubrey Wyvern's third-rate domestic staff are named Trelawny and Bulstrode.

Also, Happy Birthday [personal profile] raitala! And happy birthday for tomorrow, [personal profile] draykonis.

In sad news, Min cat is now out of chances and is living out her last weeks with all the salmon she can fit in.  The lovely vet assistant from the uber vet dropped round her pain meds this evening. She doesn't need them tonight, but it's good to have them. Poor brave kitty.

Oh dear. My sympathies to you and J. My guinea pig Gregor, who has an unnatural attraction to cats, also sends his sympathies I'm sure. Enjoy your remaining time with her, and make lots of happy memories to remember in future.

Your house is a place of wonder in my mental images of it. Thank Gregor, who sounds delightful. Min had another great day today and even scooted to the very top of her tower which she has not done in about a year. I succumbed and have let her play outside in the dark -- I think she is hoping for a last rat.

I gave Gregor a carrot in your name. He did his happy "jumping in the air whilst chirping" dance, which is his way of saying "you're welcome and thank you".

I am sure she will greatly enjoy that rat, which is of course her prerogative. Here is to Min! Queen of the Tower and Rat Catcher extraordinaire!
