We are Larry, catdad, with Iggy and Ella. We came over from #CatsOfTwitter a couple of weeks ago. Catdad deleted his account. It's much nicer here. We love meeting old and new furry friends on here. We follow back but block culture warriors.

Thank you all.
From seeing Taylor Swift live, plenty of great noms and drinks, ice skating and hanging out on a special towel pile with a heater at the polar bear plunge, it was a crazy day.
Iggy and Ella both had a whale of a time and are resting today to recover.

We needed to see Flash and say goodbye but also thanks for everything.
All the best for the future!

Well guess who found themselves at the skating rink nice and early.
It's their first time ever on ice.

It's also a birthday today that we just didn't expect to see after he was given 4 months to live in February, he has a tumour inside his heart.
Happy birthday Iggy.
His mum made him this card

I honour of @charliebrowntc.bsky.social, I thought I'd dig out some photos of our first cat. We got him in 1983, when my wife went for a night out to her friends. She came back on the bus with a cardboard box, which contained a tuxie kitten. Her friends cat had kittens who needed a home. 1/3

I'm proud to say I still have Sally Cinnamon as the ring tone on my phone.
Bass players tend not to get the limelight but we are the engine.

Really not sure what was going on last night. They both got their chicken breast meal at 9.30 ISH as usual. Iggy normally gets on top of the cat tower and does a #Hedgewatch. But last night, he went into the grey donut, see photo below, normally only Ella uses it. There was loads of scratching. 1/2

Oreo makes my heart melt.
He needs to be a one and only pet.
C'mon let's get the cat distribution system to work here.

Baby is a very pretty grey tortoiseshell cat that who came in after being a stray. She loves to be stroked and will sit on your lap. Her tail is shorter after having had an injury. Could you give her a forever home? 💗 More: shorturl.at/JzSHs #adoptdontshop #rescuecats #northwales #northwestengland

Iggy and Ella with a great toy. We don't leave it out all the time, just bring it out now and again to keep it fresh. It has a fast, slow and random mode, we use random.
Great to see Iggy play, even if not vigorously.

We have long ribbons tied to various door handles. Ella doesn't bother with them but Iggy gets very giddy kipper whilst waiting on his food being prepared. I wasn't quick enough to get the mad bit but did get him calming down and grooming stage.

This is the scene in our living room earlier this afternoon. We were watching last night's Shetland whilst the cats napped.
They both look angelic, they squabble sometimes but silently and never injured each other

Second breakfast eaten, so Iggy is on the cat tower doing his #Hedgewatch business.
I really could do with lots of cat pictures and videos today as I have got myself quite upset about the passing of @charliebrowntc.bsky.social .

He's back! Normal service has been resumed as Iggy returns to his usual evening hang out spot, one of the two box beds sat on the long footstool.

Has anyone seen Iggy? He's gone missing in the house, I've checked in all his usual napping spots and no Iggy anywhere to be found. I did find an empty box for throwing out next to the front door.

Ella loves to lie and sleep at the end of the cat tunnel. She tends to sleep there in the morning as long as her mum is in the living room. One paw is holding on to her octopus toy which she was biting and bunny kicking earlier.
If her mum is in her art room, so is her little shadow.

This pretty lady is Picnic Basket. She is a very friendly girl who loves people. She will take all the pets she can get and she also loves to play. Some other cats are okay with her, but she would also be content to be your one and only.

It's a hard life being a cat in this house.

Iggy and Ella had a rotten Halloween. It was Bravecto plus day, so they were each separately ambushed whilst sleeping and treated. Ella has forgiven me and was rolling on her back for me this morning. Iggy is still sulking, he came for treats but I'm being avoided.

I love the way the BBC report on oppression in Russia. If only they could manage to report on protest in the UK in a similar fashion instead of leading the charge banning artists.The hypocrisy really bugs me.

Well, I'd been out shopping this morning, got back and put the meats, cheeses, fruit juice and milk into the fridge. But I don't remember picking up or buying one of these.
At least her ladyship waited until the bag was empty, she doesn't always.
