he's grown a bit since then Chris, but the mangled remains of my right hand bear witness that he's not changed.....
sadly our Gizmo (White and silver tabby boy) died recently as well..... about 3 months ago, he got a urinary tract blockage, and coz we were busy out and about at work a lot, , and they mostly use out doors for their business, we didn't realise until he was very poorly indeed, took him straight to the vet, they operated, but he died of a heart attack without coming around, due to potassium poisoning because of the blockage...
heart broken,.... he was a pillow stealing fuss pot.... kept me company a lot when the mrs was working nights....
down to two now... Megan (the white female leaver of much hair) and JJ (the ginger nut job you so fondly remember)
(I stupidly went to intervene in a fight with next doors cat.... JJ is determined to rule the street with a ginger fist since taking over Gizmo's role as alpha male in the household, and he took exception to being picked up , and promptly did a number on my right hand..... it's gonna leave scars....
