Slick looks like a real handful!
I always tell Diz what a pudding he is, because he's not the boney adolescent he was when he came to me. Good job he's a cat not a child, really.

Not appropriate to this thread because I have no pictures, but y'all lemme finish?
Good.

Took the Diz cat round to Grandad's today. It's my last day of sitting for him, the 'rents are back late afternoon tomorrow. He's always loved animals, but was never "allowed" one in the house because Nanny thought all animals were dirty and flea-ridden. When he was still ambulatory he came round here every afternoon to feed Mia (the 'rents hadn't retired then).

He loved seeing Diz. He said he had a sweet face and was a real beauty. Just because he's 87, doesn't mean he's stupid! And of course Diz is so good natured (except with other cats) that he really played up to it, jumping on and off the sofa and chairs and making himself at home. I didn't put him on Grandad's lap - what with the constant motion of his Parkinsons' and his elderly skin I didn't want to risk a patented Diz-attack on his hands. But I held him for Grandad to stroke.

Was all very lovely.
