Can't be bothered.


I should be cleaning the house- but its too hot and I hate housework.

We spent the morning trimming sheeps' feet and injecting wormer before moving the to another field. We got Badger on a headcollar and Mike walked her (along with a bucket of food) to the other field. The rest took a minute to realise what was happening and then all trotted of after her, I took up the rear to stop any stragglers and close gates. They knew exactly what was going on, so whoever says sheep are stupid- doesn't know sheep.

I've also cleaned out the 2 quail who are ondoors after being attacked by the others, cleaned to rats and the bluebirds- and I really don't want to do anymore- other than the litter trays!

My theory is, the housework can always wait!

Unfortunately it can't because Pod's mum ( an ex foster cat, who has been here for 3 weeks while mum has been at sea) is picking him up tomorrow and we have tumbleweeds of hair blowing down the corridor!

Well I'm glad I haven't got round to the back of the house, as I've just had to give poor old Jimmy an enema and that can be a bit messy. Will clean up after he has been to the litter tray ( if he makes it)- I hope it works, its the last one I've got and he is really uncomfortable>

Thankfully Jimmy is a very placid boy, but sadly the enema hasn't worked. I've called the vet and if he doesn't respond to another enema tomorrow he may have to get a GA and be given a full one. My biggest worry about giving him one of these little enemas is that I accidently give him one of the diazepam rectitubes I have for Corrie, in case he doesn't come out of a fit.

The worst animal in the house- the only one I'm scared of giving tablets to is Deli the dali, she doesn't try to bite but snaps her jaws together with such strength, you better have your fingers out!

I think the cats have decided that I haven't stressed enough over them this week, so Pudding has a very snotty nose and Tabatha is wheezy again. I've given them both a shot of betamox and will see how they are tomorrow.
