The jury panel has just been told Bouquet won't be attending the trial. No reason given, no inference should be drawn.

URGENT - Cat Food Recall

 

Fold Hill Foods is voluntarily recalling a number of its hypoallergenic cat food products, from brands including Applaws, AVA and Sainsbury’s, over a possible link to an outbreak of a potentially fatal condition, feline pancytopenia. 

The manufacturer has taken this precautionary measure after the Royal Veterinary College reported a sudden increase in cases of severe feline pancytopenia. 

An investigation into what’s caused this spike is ongoing. Pancytopenia is a very rare condition wherein the number of blood cells rapidly decreases, causing serious illness and can often prove fatal.

Hat tip and kudos to Rosie for ensuring we were woken up at 4.30 this morning.

Instead of the normal purring and patting, she decided the best method was to throw up on the bed!

Guerrero Didn't Make It :(

 

So sorry to say our little guy didn't make it through the night. Despite receiving oxygen, vitamins and medication, he was just not strong enough to survive his ordeal. Thank you to everyone for your good wishes and compassion. He is at peace now. 😪 🐱 🌈

Paws Crossed for Guerrero

 

Can I get some love for this little guy. Found him in a barn an hour ago. Rats have taken his eyes. Now at vets (they stayed open for us) 5 weeks old, dehydrated and too weak to swallow, no veins for a drip. He's fighting with his heart. We've called him Guerrero (warrior) 🙏 pic.twitter.com/jR7mtL0siS
