Buddha's cat

I haven't posted for a while because I have been away in Cambodia.  In the grounds of a Phnom Penn wat I spotted this puss curled up at Buddha's feet.  Both at peace...

Christmas holidays

Going away this Christmas?  Make sure your cat's vaccinations are up to date now.  Most good boarding catteries insist that cats are immunised against herpesvirus, calicivirus and enteritis, also known as panleukopenia.
We get very busy in December and vaccination slots are difficult to find so book in for November instead.

Snake season

The snakes are up and about.  A few days of warm weather and they shake off their winter blues and start prowling the Bush Capital again.
Binka met one on her rounds on Monday and lost the fight.  She is paralysed and in hospital on a drip and regular purrrrrrrrrr therapy until she can eat and walk again.

Binka meows a greeting and rests again

Sylvie hangs out in the garden

 These lucky cats run out in the fresh air under various type of enclosure.  They are safe from motor vehicles and dogs, and they can watch but not catch birds and other wildlife.
