All the best to Charlie - and his 2 slaves!
I also thought Finedon Dandy's two young'uns are gorgeous for thinking of cards.

Charlie is on strong steriods for a couple weeks as they are sure it is neuro based, could be a tumour, could be a nutty cat - he has a review with the vet on 15th Sept.

He seems a little better in himself but as there is no warning with whatever it is I am constantly on edge looking at him - poor lad

Thank you all so very much for your kind words and thoughts. I will update you when we get vet news

Not sure how I missed this Piskie
Sorry Charlie isn't well, love & hugs to you both. Does he like catnip? We've got some lovely homegrown stuff that Whiskers loves, I could send him a bit if you think he'd like it?

I don't actually know hun, I have never grown it for him or me for that matter - so he is a catnip virgin.

Odd thing is he hasn't left my side since I came back home, he is normally more self-contained but he is literally at my feet all the time I am working here, then follows me downstairs - everywhere - awwww

Let me have your address and I'll send him a stem or two. Won't do him any harm, and it might cheer him up a bit

I had that trouble when I was honoured with the MOM banner. For some reason you are restricted to 50 messages.

how odd! Oi Mods, surely not fair to restrict MOM's to 50
