The little goblin man stopped by, distracting me from my photos of Melbcat.

I’ve started giving him the Smitten tuna mince cans from her leftover stash as they’re much higher quality than the pouches and he’s eating more eagerly with those. Having more food. His fur is definitely thickening up a bit and getting shiny with regular feeding and monthly spot ons but some bald spots remain.

I managed to smear some Canesten cream on his ears but I really had to work to do the second one (and then wiped the excess on his back under pretext of patting). I really wish you could explain to them.

The carpet foam is so scented. I have the doors open and the fans going.

spoilerWas looking in particular at a photo of Melbcat cuddling me a month before her death. A month exactly. She looks so happy. I want my beautiful girl back
