Hi Gems and Sir Fraggle,,,,
Glad to hear the Frag is well on the mend. I know from past experience how upsetting etc it all is.
I have three cats left from an original six, Floyd, who is a she, is 12 and is a spitting image of the cat from the Sheba advert.
Smarty who is 11 is a CPL rescue cat, weighs a massive 14 pounds and is a big mummys boy, a beautiful black tom cat.
and last but not least Barney, another girl.....who is 10 and is Floyds daughter and is a lovely sleek brown/black cat who after a dreadful breech birth and a lot of problems in her early years has really come into her own.
I must mention my darling Sprout who late last year was the topic of many threads on here on her ongoing battle with ill health and who lost her fight just before Christmas. She was 16 and a beautiful mackeral marked tabby who was an absolute dream of a cat to own and very sadly missed.
Well keep up the good work fraggle and make a speedy and full recovery soon.

Ali.
