Hello, Ludo here again. I’m feeling a bit better today. But Mummy said to blog today, because we have to go out very early tomorrow (Monday). I felt awful last week. I had lots of meds, as Victor told you. They tasted awful. Mummy gave me the most horrible one first, then some funny ones ..read more

Hello, Victor here. Have you had a very cold and frosty week, or a wet and very windy one? We’ve had both! From Tuesday it was very cold and frosty, right up till Friday, then just after Ludo and Mummy came back from the vets, the cloud and rain came in. The wind has been ..read more

Hello, Ludo here. I start to realise why Locksley would ask us what to write about each week. It’s hard at this time of year, to think of something to say. It gets dark early, the evenings are long. We get our food. I’m bored with lettuce. Mummy worries I’m off my food, but I’m ..read more

Hello, Victor here. It’s been a sad week, as you can imagine. Locksley struggled round to see me after early evening meds, and we chatted about how he felt, and how he could see the rainbow bridge in the distance. Then he went over to the other corner and chatted to Ludo. Later he went ..read more

Locksley’s breathing got worse over the weekend, and by yesterday he was very weak. Dr Rebekah saw him and agreed he was too weak for the tests we’d planned, and we tried putting him on Frusol for his heart, but it was too late. He rallied enough in the evening to do a tour of ..read more

Hello, Ludo here on the first Monday of the month, as is the custom here. I don’t know why but I seem to be the only one that’s healthy. Pippin gave us a shock last Monday morning by hanging his head on one side, like he was having a stroke. Fortunately he had only got ..read more

Hello, Locksley here. Yes, summer is officially over, and the firework season has started. Yesterday morning, Mummy went out to the kitchen when she got up, and said something about putting the clocks back. Apparently she hadn’t. This happens when we go back onto proper time, and if we did it at the Equinox (like ..read more

Hello, Victor here. It’s been sunny this week, but there’s also been a lot of rain, mostly at night. We are safe indoors, with our door open a little for some nice fresh air. Everyone’s the same as usual, although Mummy seems much better. She’s been going out for a short walk on sunny afternoons ..read more

Hello, Ludo here. So, Locksley jumps in on my day (first Monday of the month), and proceeds to imply that I am on my last legs. Nothing is further from the truth. I may have a touch of cystitis, which Mummy only realised on Friday, but all this ‘hiding with my head on a corner ..read more

Hello, Locksley here. I suppose the heading says it all really. Mummy came back from her two day craft fair very tired, and went to bed early. In the morning she sounded very funny, and said she had a very sore throat. Apparently it’s not called tracheitis in humans, but anyway it leads to coughs ..read more
