so here i am again
its now june and lock down here in England is easing.
i say that with raised eyebrows because, personally, i think this government has made a right old shambles of the pandemic from the beginning and people seem to think the virus has magically disappeared and life goes on as normal.
i am not even going to go over the whole Cummings debacle
i dare not get onto the subject of the visitors to the forest and the utter damage and disrespect they are causing-if i do my head may well explode
so instead i shall update you on my small life...and then talk blogging
well now i have a new housemate :)
say hi to Cookie
Cookie came from a rescue in the midlands.
he is five and his 'owners' moved home and left him behind with a bad eye and two shattered teeth :(
he has been with me now for nearly a month and i have never seen such a scared and timid cat before. its been breaking our hearts because it has become obvious to us that he has been ill treated, he is scared of hands and feet and runs and hides at sudden movement.
i am glad to say with very gentle treatment, lots of love and the help of Felliway he has settled well. he is still nervous but will come when called and will follow me into the bathroom. he now will tolerate being stroked-only for a few seconds which is better that when he first moved in. he still nips but again, that is getting less and he understand the 'no bite'.
my next news is that i have sent my dear 2CV Babette to a new and loving home and in her place is a fairly new Fiat 500
isn't it splendid?!
as yet it has no name, but i am sure one will come to me soon.

So glad to hear that Cookie is coming around...poor wee soul...people can be so horrid and cats have very good memories.
Lovely little car! Buffy (my truck) just conked out and after an eye-watering estimate from the mechanic we've decided to let her go....a sad day, I loved that truck. Funny how we get sentimental over these things, isn't it! :)
hope all's well in your patch...I've given up the socials for the foreseeable so it's good to know you're still blogging so I can keep up. xo
Oh I just want to hug Cookie! I'm so sad to hear about the cruel treatment he received at the hands of his previous owners, but so glad to hear that he is with you now, where I know he will have a wonderful life and be card for as he deserves.
With you 100% on the way this Government has responded to the pandemic. I can't believe there is not more outrage!
And congratulations on the new car! May it carry you for many miles in joy and safety.
Hi Mel and Moonroot! So glad to see you both here. I am intending to do my old school blogging at least one a week, more if i have things to air!
I feel so bad for Cookie. He will get better and already is right?
Our latest dog rescue, Daisy, is a hound mix and was also left behind when her owners moved. She was only 8 months old and was left outside. She is now terrified of the dark and hates being alone. She can't sleep at night unless she's on my body and she's not light! She's 30lbs. We have had her a year now and I thought she'd get better but she hasn't. If it's dark at bedtime one of us has to go out with her or she just trembles on the porch and won't go.
We just rescued another kitten who is about 6 weeks old and her and Daisy have become firm friends so we're hoping that might help her. Daisy very much relies on Ben and Sheila outside but inside it's her and Ruby!
