    Hi everyone haven’t been on for quite some time and just had catch up on new pictures.
    They are all gorgeous and glad we’re all chilling out in these circumstances. 
    The garden is looking fabulous and we will have nothing left do in the summer.......
    I’m Thomas Shelby aged 2 almost and this is CNN news 😂
    So serious looking, but cute!

    I think Cush may get stuck too,in that tiny catflap! Custom made will be the way to go I think. I showed OH the cat house pic,and said I'm sure you could make one!😁
    Hes a seriously big cat, the flap in the kitchen door is small dog sized.

    I have a stress headache. For a while now Chester's had a lot of problems with his gums. Last year he had a full scrape and a couple of teeth extracted and we hoped that would sort it. A couple of months later he was back at the vet with inflamed gums and we've been trying various things ever since but nothing really seems to work so we've been backwards and forwards for a year now. A few weeks back he had a really bad infection which antibiotics sorted out but all this to-ing and fro-ing isn't nice for him. We've had a discussion with the vet this morning about how to approach this long term and we've decided that as it's his cheek teeth where the inflammation occurs, he's going to have all of those out. As his canines and front teeth don't seem to suffer the same problem, we're going to leave those. So, he's going in for surgery tomorrow morning and we are STRESSED. It didn't help that the vet mentioned that having him put to sleep was an option although she wasn't saying it as a suggestion. It's left me feeling tearful and with a monster stress headache. OH is much the same, I can't wait for the next 24 hours to be over 😟

    @februarysgirl sending you and OH hugs. Hope Chester a speedy recovery. Long term it will be the for the best and hopefully less pain for Chester.

    Thanks @Amphibios. The vet's original recommendation was a regular teeth scraping but the first one didn't seem to fix the problem for long at all. At 10 years old, there'll shortly be a point where a general anaesthetic becomes too risky for him. We're pretty sure this will be the best option.
