Don't like doing it but I'm going to have to book an appointment with my G.P.
This latest lot of medication I'm on is not pleasant and I'm really not enjoying the side effects.

My cat once knocked over a full deep fat fryer ( cold oil ) that had been used for fish fingers . The mess and the smell got everywhere. I was in tears . Cold oil is a nightmare to clean up 😞

My medications make it really hard to get warm. Even if I'm sat indoors with the heating on.

His Lordship is home from the vets . He's going to be on Arthrocam for the next 10 days . He's been bitten a couple of times by another cat .
Like all boxers there comes a point in their career where they need to retire and often it needs a friend to break it to them . #Housecat
