We have that at home on the bathroom door. And it's true. Ella likes to get in the basin and lick the tap. Iggy likes to lie down on the shower tray and roll around.
You need to be concentrating on helping dad get better. Sounds like dad needs rest and maybe a doctor to check him over and give him medication if he needs it.
Look after yourself too, Bertie!
Now that is clever! I'm impressed by the ingenuity. Anything that gets medicine in withya fight is good in my book.
Iggy had gungey eyes and a chest infection when we got him from the shelter. The shelter gave us eye drops which he HATED but we had to take him to the vet with the chest infection and he got tablets. He hated the tablets too, so I bought a grinder and hid it in treats or food. That still works!
Our Iggy will lie right across a stair and refuses to move for my wife. She has arthritis in her right hip and knee and can't get past him. He even does it sometimes when she's going downstairs to feed the cats.
I have to come and he moves for me.
With the syringe, she used to foam it up and expel it from her mouth. That was frightening.
Ella gets a bit of gabapentin before the groomer, so every 10 weeks. We squirt it into a tube of Lick-e-licks placed on her plate and mix it up. She gobbles the lot.
And thinks that she's had a treat.
You must know some tricky humans. I can truly say I've never done that, Auggie.
I've hidden a pill in tuna steak, mackerel fillet, salmon fillet, chicken breast and duck breast before, but never beef.
Sorry, too tempting, I'm going in!
I love the way your front paws are tucked under. That's super cute!
I'm sorry but that tummy is getting rubbed, trap or no trap.
It looks very luxurious, Dougie. I love your catio.
Oh no , now Jake's feeling a bit ruff too, those Monday morning blues.
You're looking very pensive there, Izzy.
I'm surprised as it only reached #34 on the UK charts. I'd have sworn it was a big hit.
I was about to say that I didn't but I looked him up and I do remember his 'Fooled around and fell in love'.
She is truly gorgeous.
Brilliant graphic. When's the t-shirt coming? I'd buy that.
We want it bad!
Never heard that before and I like it. I'd heard of the band but never heard their music. I never really got past Elmore James, Jimmy Reed, Buddy Guy, Howling Wolf, Little Walter and Muddy Waters.
Sending them special purrs from Iggy and Ella. We all hope that they feel better again soon.
If that means no Thatcher, count me in! I'd lay much of the blame of what is wrong with the UK today at her door. Trickle down economics, privatisation of utilities, selling off oil and gas cheap, atomisation and slashing red tape. Not a single thing has made us better off. More unequal for sure.
More front than Blackpool!
Definitely no hypocrisy whatsoever.
I was scarred for life. It still haunts me.
Will do.
I had an unfortunate Simon & Garfunkel experience.
In my youth, I went on a 1 week coach tour of the Highlands in Scotland.
The coach driver had one 8 track, the best of S&G. And played it all day, every day. Put me off for life, as that's over 50 years ago.
Cheers, fancy trying this and will make this week.
Well said!

This was an album track and B side to Pick up the pieces from the Average White Band and this, You Got It, is my favourite tune by them.
