Christmas Presents

That cold snow has finally gone, not that it matters much to me to be honest as I'm not going out much at the moment. I much prefer to sleep on the radiator in my owners room, it's like sleeping on top of a toaster!

I did well for Christmas except for my new collar with the cow bell on, it's bloody ridiculous, how will I ever catch a mouse wearing this!

Anyone out there have nice presents!

Oh no Snow!!!!

It snowed in the night and my owners threw me out in it this morning while they went into Abergavenny!! Now my little paws got very cold and I couldn't wait to get back in the warm. Cats and snow don't get on very well. Since then I've been having a lovely sleep but I'm dreading tomorrow morning- I think I'll hide!

My own TV Show

We had a lovely lady visit us today, she said she was from the BBC and asked if she could meet me!

Now I have a theory that goes like this.

I've got a blog and the BBC have obviously clocked it, can't compete and have decided to offer me a contract, worth loads of money, to host my very own late night cat, sorry, chat show. Now that will piss the Tom off from up the road, he might have his balls but I will be a super star living in Hollywood.

The only down side to all of this is that I will miss living here and all the attention I get from our guests. I'm going to practice being a super star and ignoring everyone (not difficult for a cat anyway).

If any cats out there want to come with me and live in Hollywood can you please let me know as soon as possible please.

Lots of purrrrrs

OK Rain you win!!!!

Not only is it raining but it's now really cold as well, so I've decided to stay in doors cause its dry and warm in the pub. Actually, my owners bed is really cosy and I get to sleep all day and most of the night.

I climbed the cherry tree yesterday just to keep my 'paw in' and I must say I haven't lost my touch.

Lots of guests at the moment so I'm OK for cuddles and attention ( I love it).

The Christmas tree is up and the pub looks very festive, cant wait to get at the turkey this year.

Any cats out there with no where to go this Christmas, give us a call.

My number one fan

Look I know I'm popular and all that but my mate Gary doesn't mind if I dribble on him. He knows I only dribble when I'm happy and he comes a long way just to see me!

Well Gary just to let you know that the last few days have been so warm I've been having a lot of naps in the churchyard but now the log fire is lit in the pub at night I can warm my nose on that.

I'm still working hard as car park attendant sniffing all the cars to see what's going on (it's a cat thing).

Let me know when you're coming to pub again.

Lots of dribbles

Busters Last Stand!

Well Buster, I 'm delighted that you got your own back on those 'Cruella Devills'. That large turd seems to me to be the ideal statement!!!!. I hope you've settled in to the the routine again.

I've been busy this week, altogether I've found four new places to take a nap! The nights have been quiet without the Owls having their all night parties! They must be on holiday. Have you found any juicy mice over your way cause the churchyard population here is forcing me to eat cat food with peas and carrots in!!! Have you ever chased after a carrot and chewed its head off?

Anyway nice to get your comments must go for a snooze now, chat with you again.

Lots of Love

Butterflies Everywhere

This is the weather for cats! I just love the hot sunny days where I can snooze all day, I've found a lovely spot in the Churchyard under the shade of a tree where I can really sleep well. Cabbage Whites everywhere today fluttering around the garden all day, don't they ever have a nap?

I'm quite a contented cat at the moment because I'm getting a lot of attention from the B&B guests, they all like me and give me lots of cuddles!

Any pets out there with something interesting to tell me?

Love from Puskins

My new friend Buster

Well just look at him showing off in the sink! Nice of you to send me some photos Buster. You seem to have it sorted at your house don't you!! obviously the boss, as it should be of course.Keep in touch and send me some more photos if you want.

Lots of love

Visit to the Church

Couldn't believe it but this morning it wasn't raining so I decided to go for a walk to the Church next door. My owner wasn't around so I strolled up the road instead of going through the churchyard (He shouts at me if I go up the road, don't know why it's not exactly the M25, whatever that is !!!) and guess what; I had a go at catching a grass snake in the churchyard, not easy to catch at all, I much prefer a juicy mouse.

New Brush

My owner has gone out and bought a new brush from Pets are Us just for me! Every morning after he has cooked breakfast for the guests he gives me a brush. I'm amazed at all the hair that comes out and at one point I thought I might be going bald!

That fat cat came calling again this week but I flexed my muscle and he decided to buzz off. If he rolled on me I be crushed!

Spent the night under the X5 because of the rain, rain and more rain, it's not funny anymore and I really miss having a good kip on the sun lounger, bring back the sun because cats like to nap in the sunshine. I can't remember the last time I chased a moth around the garden after dark. I did see a Silver Y on the kitchen window last night but it was too high to get, and on the same window was a Lobster moth, I like chasing those too!

My mate Glynne

My mate Glynne sent me this photo of us at the Girlings Apprentices Dinner held at the pub last year. As you can see we are good mates. Glynne doesn't mind if I dribble on his best shirt cos that's what friends are for!

Black Rat

When the locals where talking about Black Rat I just had to listening in on the conversation. It wasn't what I expected though, It was some kind of drink they called cider; nothing like the brown long tailed creature I was thinking of that makes a wonderful supper!

I had a visit from a very fat cat the other day, he sat on a grave stone and I thought it might of collasped but it didn't, hell he was big! Thankfully he wasn't looking for a fight but if he had been I was ready; to run up stairs and hide under the bed!

I'm back!

It's been a little while since I made a journal entry, but today everyone is talking about Michael Jackson, never heard of him!! The rain is coming down and I'm sitting under my favoutire car, cos it warm and dry here.

Watched the swifts yesterday flying over the pond and sometimes diving in, wish I could catch one for my supper.

I haven't caught a mouse for I while because it's been too hot and it makes my sleepy if it's too hot.

The guests in our B&B are nice and I'm getting a lot of attention, I like that! Also my owner splashed out on a cat brush this week (about time too) and now I'm getting rid of some unwanted fur.

Big party last week and lots of strange people turned up including a vampire, I've never seen one before, a Queen of Hearts, Mad Hatter, Garden Gnome and someone called Fred Flintstone who looked like a cave man to me. They drank lots of something that made them laugh and talk very loud and gave them the wobbles, very strange these humans!

Heard my owners talking about Milly's (Basset Hound) house being hit by lightning last night, hope Milly is OK. The sky is very dark and thundery so I 'm going to sit on the top of the tree stump, lighting will never get me up here , I'll be quite safe.

Here comes the rain

I can smell rain in the air today, that will save my owner having to water the plants. Hello to Lilly Lou, a new follower of my blog, let me know what you're up to Lilly and a bit about yourself.

had a bit of a restless night last night with Mr Owl practicing for the job of Town Crier! and to crown it all Woody Woodpecker was back for breakfast. I'm thinking of moving to the city to get away from all the noise.

Lots of flowers

Had a bit of a set to this morning with a raven that landed near to my breakfast, I knew exactly what he was after but like a bullet from a gun I was there in a flash.

Cant help noticing the flowers on my way to a cosy spot under the honeysuckle and sweet peas.

Bees on the Honeysuckle

Bees are so busy they make me tired, they spend all day on the Honeysuckle, luckily for me I have a nice chair with a really cosy cushion. It's 24 degrees already so my snooze alarm has gone off. Lots of Blue Tits feeding on the nuts today but no sign of that noisey Woodpecker so I might catch a nap!

Noisey Owl

As you know I haven't had a lot of sleep today and now Mr Owl has started hooting from the oak tree over the pond. SHUT UP!!!! How is a cat supposed to sleep, its worse than being in the city (I think), but I'm not sure!

Buzzards

Well the weather was glorious, the kind of sunny day that's just right for napping on the owners steamer, he didn't mind sharing and I got my tummy and ears rubbed; lush! Got a bit worried about 11.00am when two buzzards circled overhead for about 20 minutes (well I'm not very big) but the ravens in the copse to the south of our garden were screaming like mad monkeys and I think the buzzards disliked all the noise so they pushed off. Woody Woodpecker made hell of a noise tapping at the peanuts in the cherry tree so as you can imaging I haven't had a lot of sleep today.

The Cherry Tree

I felt a bit frisky this morning having had a good nap in the hedge. I broke my record for climbing the cherry tree but now I feel a bit tired so I'm going for a nap on the warm crazy paving slabs.

Lots of squirrels about today and Woody Woodpecker has had a real go at the nuts hanging in the cherry tree. A nuthatch turned up as well to enjoy the peanuts

Feeling Full

My owner shouted at me today because I kept on asking to be fed. I got through 4 pouches and 3 meaty sticks from Aldis, I love um! Since he cut the hedge I've found a lovely bed for night snoozes. Its quite a pleasant night tonight, the honeysuckle scent is quite strong when I walk down the path next to the terrace and the stars are really bright but they have a log fire in the pub, so soft these humans!

Mr Owl is having a meeting in the tree behind the church and a fox tried to stare me out earlier.

Off for a nap now.

Purrrrrfect Day

The sun shone today and it was good to be a pussy cat living in the country. There were a lot of butterflies around but I was too lazy to chase them. I sat in the churchyard in case there were any juicy mice around but no luck today, my owner photographed me alert and ready to pounce on anything that moved.

It was too warm to pee everywhere so I had a nap instead.

My owners were talking about going to a wedding and needing a new coat. Well what about me, I thought, I've had the same coat since I can remember and it is beginning to look a bit tatty now even though I wash it every day.

A new friend

Well, I'm gobsmacked I have a friend in Dubai called Sheikh. That must be outside of the village cos I never heard of it. Purrrrhaps we can meet up for a scrap sometime.

A Tom with balls

Just had a skirmish with the tom (called JACK) from up the road. He pisses me off because he still has his balls. I really miss mine, the smells just not the same anymore!

Next Doors Dog

That dirty dog has had a poo on our lawn and just left it there! How they can do that and not cover it over is beyond me!

Upset Tummy

Well I hate to admit it but that mouse has given me the shits, although saying that, my owner has changed my pouches and the new food includes bits of carrot for Heavens sake, whoever heard of a cat eating carrots! Not only that but I have a bit of indigestion too and now to crown it all its started raining, Great; I'm off to find a dry place to sit while I wait for my owners to come back from shopping!

Let Pets Talk

Hello

My name is Puskins and I'm a cat. I live in the country and my owners run a very old pub. They are kind to me and I like where I live. Some of the other cats in the area try to come into my garden but I don't stand for that and get rid of them. I pee around the area to let them know I live here but they still come noseing around. Yesterday I sat on the garden wall and waited, sure enough after abount 20 minutes I caught a juicy field mouse. I tend not to eat it straight away, I like to play with it for a while but in the end I can't resist it. Yesterdays mouse was particulary tasty.

I would like to talk to other animals out there so please tell me what you do all day.
