Hard at work.
.... It’s a balancing act as hairy requires a cat treat with each sooper dooper feeding ......
all my 4 cats want to eat whenever one cat is fed, no matter they are hungry or not
one particular cat (the bigger one in photo) eats again and again and he threw up and then eats again parallel to the others, almost every morning, i guess he has what they call bulimia of some kind
Feeling a bit ticked off today..... The old boy is fine but his on/off crush visited with some hitchhikers today. She seemed fine and I removed one with a tick tool. I don’t know much about UK ticks. Can she pass these onto dog etc? I guess I will have to have a chat with her parents. Luckily she and old boy still practice anti-social distancing (more off than on). Any tick advice appreciated / not something old boy suffers from.

Oh looks like it was riding for a while. That bloated belly is full of it’s hosts blood. Looks like you did good got the head. Once they are embedded with a host they usually remain on that host unless your unlucky enough to get a pregnant one. I don’t know if there is much difference between UK/US tics. I believe in a creator, I have a difficulty believing all the beings on earth were some freak accident and I don’t like to doubt the wisdom of said creator but I think we could have done just fine without mosquitoes, tics and fleas.
A week ago I picked up some green lipped mussel for my old pal on the off chance it just may help his joints, thought we could see a change in him after a couple of days but put it down to wishful thinking until this afternoon when we were out for a short walk and met up with with a near neighbour who commented on how well he was walking.
Fingers crossed it continues to help him.
