The vet came to check on her and gave her a pain relief injection and an antibiotic jab. I have to repeat them both tomorrow. Fortunately he doesn’t think it is a contagious eye infection. More likely an injury.

We asked the vet to feel Wisp’s belly and Willow’s belly. There is an outside chance that Willow is with kid. Willow’s son, Uno, matured early and even though he went to live at the Raunds animal sanctuary he might have not left here in time!

Late last night I made a batch of fairy cakes. I put some frozen blackcurrants in the mix and the sharpness of the fruit complemented the sweetness of the cake and the icing sugar on top.

My friend and I put the world to rights and managed to munch our way through the cakes (with a little help from Jeremy).

Performed by our talented neighbour and his partner who are members of the fabulously enthusiastic Bedford Marianettes. Live music from a bunch of brilliant musicians and all taking place at the Bedford University Theatre. The dance routines were stunning and accompanied by multiple costume changes. All great fun and we, the audience, sang along at the end.

Thank you Rich and Sarah

I remember reading, some time ago, that black cats are less popular than other felines because in the age of social media they are not as photogenic as more colourful cats. Granddaughter also reminded me that in many Western cultures black cats are thought to be unlucky.

I adore my black cats. Black cats are the best!!!

A friend alerted me and sent me outside to look at the sky. Thank you
