It has been awhile since I updated this blog, I have been concentrating on my photography rather than writing. I have also moved house with my two remaining cats. Before we moved Benji had to have his tail removed due to an injury, he came home one evening much worse for wear. I could see his tail was not quite right. After an expensive trip to the vet (who were wonderful) he came home minus his tail, plus a few teeth, nails clipped and feeling a little bit sorry for himself as he was wearing the cone of shame – he spent the next week or so on my bed, only getting up to do the necessary and have his food. It took him awhile to bounce back (the vet reckoned he was around 12-13 years old by the state of his teeth) He is also a little hard of hearing and his sight is not as good as it was, I just have to change the pitch of my voice when calling him. I have also made small adaptions (I placed a small foldaway step-stool near where he likes climb onto the sofa or the windowsill.)
Amber takes everything in her stride. She was the first to venture outside when we moved (I kept them inside for a very long two weeks) As you can see she likes to find a high spot to view her surroundings
