Still not over lolcats. Sorry.

In Sydney on the weekend for Jethro’s cast to get changed, and hopefully the final anaesthetic (although he’ll be in some kind of contraption or another for a long while to come. And aren’t they attractive!).
We stayed with Owen’s sister’s family. This is their cat, Dibble:

That picture doesn’t really give you an idea of his size, but you can get an idea from this one.

I’m not over lolcats, either. They remain awesome.

Oh, baby. I hope you’re all feeling ok. I’m bringing over some curry yums tomorrow.

He looks like a big ball of cotton wool with feet sticking out of it.

mebbe time to watch “Supersize Mi(aow)”….?
ps. big sympathies re littlest lovebeast. those casts really do look bloody uncomfortable.

oh, poor little fellas…they look really uncomfortable, don’t they?
and poor mamas and papas too
also, that cat…don’t know how I’d feel if I were the local wildlife…safe because he couldn’t move or unsafe because obviously when he does move he doesn’t miss

That cat is TOO BIG!

So far we have only heard of its use in Australia. And we all know what weirdos they are in Australia. I hope Jethro gets one of the less uncomfortable ones, and doesn’t need it for long.
Sounds like one of our cats has just enacted revenge on Gemma, must go.

He doesn’t really seemed bothered by the cast most of the time. It’s the American mummies I worry about - from the same site, under the heading “Feelings”:
Americans are funny. I am a major sook, but even I got over my Feelings pretty quickly, realising that I’m not the one in the cast. And don’t you love that “hatred towards clothing manufacturers”? I had that already.

They could try Fight Club, or perhaps drinking heavily might help.
Man, those braces make my back hurt in sympathy, on the other hand, he’ll be well prepared for horsemanship. Those braces look like John Wayne Manufacturing Machines.
If he can’t have a pony, he could ride the cat, it’s big enough.
Slapstick in comments threads—I never thought I’d see the day. Bravo, Mindy, and your Chaplinesque cat!

That is really creepy from the American mummies. “Mourning for the soft perfect baby…..” That is just wrong and says a lot about American society.
My mother’s cat was bigger than that. He used to bail up the collie dog across the street and eat his food and drag his stomach all the way home. (the cat’s, that is)

I’ve always felt cats were basically stomachs surrounded by fur and optimism.
Reminds me of what our vet once said about about a inordinately expansive family cat.
“Yes, she’s a very efficient food convertor, isn’t she.”

Far freakin out - are you sure that’s a cat? You don’t use GM cat food do you - maybe it’s a hybrid??

That’s a hippo with fur.
Bear insisted I break my general blog absence and send cuddles to Jethro.

There’s a great site that will teach you how to speak lolcat with the best of them: http://speaklolcat.com
