Then we went out for the day. We thought the cat was out. It wasn't ... When we got back we found the cat on the sofa, very contented with a slightly swollen belly. The plate was spotless.

In other news had to wash and trim poor little Trudy on Sat, long story but she caught the edge of some fly paper and came running in to the house with it still attached - we had to remove it and the (thankfully non toxic) gunk. She was remarkably calm and sat on my lap, let us soap and rinse and cut out the still sticky bits - we didn’t want her trying to groom it out. She looks a bit moth eaten on the back leg but she’s ok.

Then an empty Mr Kipling box. That progressed to a huge bit of pork crackling he had obviously stolen from someone's kitchen (still warm). Then a dead goldfish he had dug up from someone's garden. Then he was able to catch bloody grey squirrels!
