Re: the mini appeal I posted on FB last week, regarding the ragdoll kitten? Its owner no longer could cope with it, and was going to put it for sale online if no new owner could be found. Since my post, my ex's niece (whom I shall call MY niece, as she still regards herself as such) got in touch and is VERY interested to adopt said ragdoll....cue several messages and calls today, and come Saturday she will be the proud owner of a gorgeous little cat! I'm REALLY happy that it's turned out this way.....Sarah (my niece) is fab and another cat fan, she is so excited to get the cat!

As an aside, we have Charlie back in a cone collar tonight - and for the same reasons as last time. His skin sort of scabs over and then he gets the scabs off so the skin is sore. I tried him with a baby vest as I did last year but sadly it isn't enough to cover where the patch of soreness is, so a cone it is. We both hate it, and I suspect he may have to have a vet visit which will be traumatic for him (he stresses in the carrier) but needs must. I have no clue what causes this, I haven't changed his food, he hasn't had any drops on his neck for fleas or anything. Bless him.

Oh Gal that is just such fab news, thank you so much for updating; I really appreciate it. :D

Your poor Charlie, it doesn't sound comfortable for him. What type cone do you use - do you have one of the soft ones (https://www.amazon.co.uk/SoftE-Smart-Co ... 119&sr=8-3) they're really good and so much better for the cat.

Thanks Ria - I have been using the plastic one the vet gave me last year as I completely forgot I had this one as well

Those soft collars are so much nicer than the hard plastic ones :D We use them too 8-)
