ReplyDeleteHamish will remember that when times are tough, even cats pull together.
ReplyDeleteA lovely gift, Lottie.
ReplyDeleteEven Lottie couldn't resist your charms, Hamish. Well done!
ReplyDeleteThings are changing for Hamish aren't they?
ReplyDeleteSuch beautiful kitties. They are a solace to the heart.
ReplyDeleteSometimes we snuggle together. But never for very long!
ReplyDeleteMillie - couldn't you just let him have one full day???
ReplyDeleteAh well, I'm glad you found some love and attention for a little while Hamish. (Do they let you read comments Hamish or is that rationed too??)
