Meeting Friends

On Sunday our mum and dad told us they were going to meet Ginger Jasper and Milo and Alfie's mums and dads and that we couldn't go. Well we decided that wasn't right. If it wasn't for us they wouldn't have been meeting up in the first place. We all had a Flat Cat discussion and decided whether they liked it or not, we were all going too!

They had a carvery lunch first and there was lots of talking and laughing going on. When they had finished, they went out into the garden to carry on talking and to take photos.
This is the view of the back of the pub and restaurant taken from the garden. It is called the Highwayman's Haunt and is very old.

Alfie took Milo off checking out the gardens while we relaxed on one of the tables with GJ for a while.
Eric: I really must tell mum that I think she is overdoing my diet. Even Skinny Flynnie is bigger than me now.

GJ's dad did an impression of Harry Hill and made everybody laugh.

Then the Beans joined us by the table.

Then we got a bit of cuddling for the next photo.

Then Milo and Alfie came back from exploring the gardens and joined us all for a group photo.

Then we said that is enough of having the Beans in our photos, we wanted one on our own.
We didn't get a kitty bag from any food they left but we did get a goody bag each from Milo and Alfie with yummy treats and lovely woolly balls. Thanks Milo and Alfie. Their mum pawed forward the original Dewey book to our mum and when she has read it, she will paw it forward too.
Ginger Jasper's mum knitted a gorgeous shawl for our mum which she said will be ideal for cooler nights on their cruise. (Oh, did we forget to tell you, we are being locked up again in just over a week's time.) And she got a lovely scarf with lots of kitties on it. Dad got a mug with us on it and he loves it! We will show those pictures later because they are on the other camera.

Paw it Forward.

We played Paw it Forward with Ginger Jasper and we were excited when our package arrived.


Flynn: Oh look, GJ has sent us lots of different treats. These are Felix Lickins and they are my favourite even more than Temtayshuns. I wonder how he knew I like them. Also we have got catnip drops, Thomas Treats and natural dried chicken strips which we have never seen before. Thanks GJ for all these lovely treats.

We got lovely toys too. A jitterbug which moves along the ground when you pull it's tail, some lovely little mousies, blue fev-vers which I wanted to chew and a fish on a line which is great fun.

But I need to check these treats out again.

Mmm nom nom nom. You can see the lovely card GJ sent us, he's looking very smart in his green top hat.

Eric: Steady on Flynn, leave some for me.

Oh this fishie is fun.

The string is good to chew too.

Yup little fishie, I like you.

Now for the biggest surprise of all. You all know I hate having my photo taken and I walk away or look away. Well we got this beeyoootiful fev-ver boa with jingly bells on the ends of it. Mum put it around my neck and I felt so handsome in it that I posed nicely for her. Mum couldn't believe I actually wanted my photo taken.

Don't you think I look good in it?



Flynn: I love the chick-hen strips. I would have eaten the whole packet if mum hadn't taken it away. She said we can't eat everything all at once.
If any one would like to play Paw it Forward with us, we will send a package to the first kitty who says they want to play in our comments.
