Is it getting colder around here or what? Just as well those Mummies have the electric blanket on their bed now – and it works really well. It must do because they have it (or is it them?) on a lot – day and night sometimes. It’s good too because it has four zones – head and feet on both sides. Kaz likes it because it has a timer so it turns itself off after how many hours she has set it for.

Have I said lately how much I love Aunty M? She came around this morning doing a delivery run for Kaz and Sooz but really it was so she could bring me a coffee cuptray … I love them … I love them … I love them. Did I say how much I love them? You wouldnt think I’d be able to fit into one but I absolutely can – and I have a pic to prove it.

Kaz has taken me outside again a couple of times this week and I don’t know why she seemed so surprised when I tried to battle-crawl under the front fence. It shouldn’t (surprise her) … she really has to know that anything can happen while we’re out there in the big wide wonderful world.

Why is it that Sooz smells when she comes home sometimes?  It was like that today – she went out with So and when she came back … there it was again – cat smells. I believe it’s because she’s been helping So with Tara –  who has been unwell lately, and Sooz has been helping with her antibiotics.
Okay, I can forgive that, but I’m not sure I can forgive that she smells of another cat as well … from what she says I’m sure that’s Mokkie (not his real name – because I can’t spell it!). 
Let’s see … what else has been happening around here of late?  Not much really – except that the prayer shawl has made its way onto the bed – I told you it was getting colder around here – and I often catch a nap there during the day.  They’re still insisting on locking me out of the bedroom at night (it was much better while Kaz was away last week and I could stay in with Sooz) and it’s a bit mean because I would rather be in sleeping on that electric blanket.  Did I mention that it’s been colder?  I know that Aunty M has gotten the message … she’s talking about getting (my ArchNemesis) Mimi a jacket for when it’s cool.  She’s so lucky! 

I don’t know what Kaz is on about.  She took me out into the yard on Sunday morning and she was keeping me on a short leash – she can do that because she has one that yanks the cord back when she pushes a button – because she said she doesn’t trust me since I tried to leg it over the fence last time!  Doesn’t she know that’s my job?  I don’t want her to stand there and take photographs of me and then just drift off into doing whatever else she wants to do on her phone … as though I’m not there and that she isn’t totally responsible for me while I’m out in the yard.  And it’s not like I actually got over the gate and fence and into the back yard last time.  She dragged me off the top of it before I could fully scramble over! 

But I didn’t have to worry about her at all last week.  She was gone on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and didn’t get back until it was time for lunch on Thursday.  And I didn’t have to go off to Aunty (I don’t think so!) Rosemary and her green hair because Sooz stayed at home to look after me, feed me, do my tray, play stringey thing with me, and let me share the bed with her … at nighttime.  Yes, yes, I know I didn’t have to go running over it and her at 3 o’clock that morning but it was time for her to be up anyway. I was feeling a bit lonely without her.  It’s different when they lock me out of the bedroom at night, but when I’m in there I really do want to be with them – unless I’m hiding under the bed so they can’t evict me. 
Come to think of it, I did spend quite a lot of time with Sooz over those few days, sometimes cuddled against her … the only thing that could have made it better was if she’d had the electric blanket on … that would have been so toasty.  But … not to be … although I did help them to put the new one on the bed yesterday.  Aunty M had arranged to get it for them from the store where she works … and let me tell you it (that would be the electric blanket) is simply wonderful.  It heats up for 0 to 100 in less than 60 seconds … oops, no, that would be the car I want to get … but the blanket really doesn’t take all that long … I heard Sooz raving about it last night.  

Sooz has decided to stay home with me so I don’t have to go board with Aunty (I don’t think so) Rosemary. I am so excited because I will be able to spend some quality time with Sooz without Kaz barging in.
OMG OMG … with Kaz and her stupid sleeping machine gone that means there is no reason for Sooz to lock me out of the bedroom overnight! Hurrah! But don’t tell Kaz because she’ll tell Sooz not to let me have a sleepover because it will set a bad precedent. I don’t think so Kaz, I don’t think so at all.

There’s definitely something up but I don’t know what it is. Kaz keeps talking about me and then spreading her arms and legs wide apart. I’ve never seen her do anything like it before. She’s done it a couple of times now … and I think I heard something about green hair. How odd is that? There’s only one person I know with green hair and that’s Rosemary at Boarding School … hang on … that can’t be right … surely they’re not going to take me back to stay with “Aunty” (I don’t think so) Rosemary.  But they would you know. 
I really think I’m going to have to work on a strategy here … I am not going back there any time soon. I told them that last time. Hmmm come to think of it,  that could be what the spread-eagled arms and legs thing is about … that’s exactly what I did the last time Kaz tried to put me in the cat cage to take me to Rosemary’s. She had the devil of a time getting me it then … but that will be nothing compared to when she tries again.  Be afraid Kaz and Sooz, be very afraid.
When the time comes … they won’t be able to find me at all. They think it’s bad at bedtime when I go missing … trust me that’s going to seem like a doddle!  But I will give them a fighting chance … let’s see if they can find me in these pictures.
