Feeling rather purrleased with myself today as it’s my Gotcha Day! 8 years today since I chose my foreverhome (with a little help from Keighley Cat Care) & moved in!
Seems to have worked out quite well 😺🩷🎉🩷🎉🩷🎉🩷🎉
#Hedgewatch
So, dad was on an impawtant work call but he’d not closed the door tightly, so naturally I barged into room as I needed to be in there at that very moment. Can you believe, pals, that I was manhandled out of there?!! 🙀 An outrage! Call 📞 over so I can go in now, but I’m not! 😾
Can you believe I was ABANDONED for hours (including overnight yesterday) by mum, who went swanning off with pals to celebrate one of their Birthdays? 🙀😾
I’m making sure (a) she knows my feelings on the matter & (b) that she won’t go anywhere again! 😼
📣 It’s a special day for me today, friends, as it’s my birthday & I’m 9. To mark this occasion may I present my official Birthday Pawtrait! 😸 📷 🎂 🎉
#TabbyTuesday
#Hedgewatch
Mum’s been working at the hedgehog rescue today and thought you might like to see this little video clip. These 2 hoglets are from a litter of 7 born at the rescue, all of whom were given a health check today. 6 of the hoglets are brown but to everyone’s amazement, 1 is white! 😻
It’s mum’s Birthday today, so much excitement! 😸🎉🎉 We’ve had present-opening, a Birthday pawtrait & now it’s time for snuggles & a snooze. Hope you didn’t plan on going anywhere, mum as I can’t pawsibly be moved right now! 💗💗
#WednesdayVibes
And today’s news is....it’s my Birthday 🎂 and I’m 44 - well, 7 years old as the hoomans count it!!😹I look a bit shocked as according to this chart, that makes me a SENIOR now 🙀
Do you like this card my family chose? They think it looks like me & one of the birds in our garden
Mum was slowly turning into an ice cube 🧊 🥶 standing by the open back door, waiting for me to come back in, after a brief outing to the garden. Little did she know, I had noiselessly flashed past her & was comfortably enjoying a warm
#Hedgewatch
at the upstairs window! 😹
Wait a minute… that’s me!!! Look pals…can you believe that SEVEN years have now passed since I adopted my forever-family?

Appawrently I “led mum a right dance, this morning” hiding under beds & making it difficult for her to get me out! 😼I only wanted to be nearby to supervise the workers refurbishing our bathroom. Mum wanted me downstairs where it is “safer”! Hmmph 😾
#Hedgewatch
Well, I hunkered down & endured another night of booms & bangs 💥 🎇 🎆 😿 I hid under one of the beds for ages but finally braved it & came out. I snuggled in close to mum

to all the mums out there. Mums are special people 😺🩷 I love mine & I let her have a lie-in this morning with a card & chocs.
Okay…I really prefer it when she gets up early to see to my every need but I’ll agree to this change in routine…just this once
Oh pals… something awful has happened… our kitchen floor has been stolen & there’s been lots of banging & crashing! 🙀 I was quickly escorted out of harm’s way but I’ve heard mum saying this is just the start! I don’t know what she means but I don’t like it 😾
Much excitement today as it’s dad’s birthday! 😺🎂 🎉 Naturally I was needed to assist him with cards & gifts! He got some super pressies… my favourites were these long bindings from a big cardboard box! Hours of fun 😹

Hedgehog-Rescue-Rosie loves piggy-backing (or should that be hoggy-backing 🦔😹) on my Twitter page as she doesn’t have one of her own! She usually enjoys the limelight on

Hello everyone! Sorry I haven’t been posting much over the last few days but I haven’t been very well due to a bout of cystitis 😿 I didn’t enjoy being bundled off to the V.E.T but hopefully I’m on the mend now. As you can see, I’m back to my

Everything is different & strange today. I can’t quite weigh it up 🤔 My no-fur bro & sis are nowhere to be seen. Mum says they’ve gone

Sorry I haven’t been around much, pals, but I found myself back at the VET yesterday where they robbed me of 5 more of my gnashers!! 🙀 🦷 Needless to say I was not best pleased yesterday evening but I’m much better today. I’m eating well too 😸
#whiskerswednesday
Mum has been on a little

of her own, in the village, to see this supurrb post-box-topper which a talented but unknown someone has made to show their suppawt for the Hedgehog Rescue where mum helps out. Isn’t it wonderful? 😸❤️ 🦔 🧶
I have a cunning plan… 😼 Dad is in the back garden feeding the birdies so I’m waiting behind the door. When dad opens it to return indoors, I’m going to RUSH out! 😺 Of course I only want to WATCH the birdies as part of my morning’s

No outdoor

But never mind, she’s got lots of fab Birthday greetings, gifts & cards to enjoy, including this special one 🩷

Out in the day is NOT okay when it comes to hedgehogs (which are nocturnal creatures). Please remind all your friends about this!🙏🏻
Mum gently captured Sparkler, who is now at Rescue

is the purrfect time to share pics of my 17 yr old Uncle Charlie. He adopted & moved in with mum’s pawrents after his first hooms got a dog 😹 but has been living with mum’s friend for 9 yrs (as mum’s pawrents are sadly gone 🌈)
Mum took him Crispmouse gifts this wk! ❤️
Thinking of our dear pal Robert as I enjoy the morning sun in the garden & listen to the birdies. Robert loved being outside. He’d have loved it today. We all miss him dreadfully but we know he runs free otrb 🌈 Forever in our hearts ♥️

Sorry for being quiet, chums but mum’s been away for a long weekend with the girls, which left me a bit subdued & sad despite dad’s best efforts! (Sorry dad!)
She’s back now & I’m not letting her out of my sight! The paws of possession can be seen in action 😺🐾❤️
After all the excitement of Christmas, with lots of extra food being bought in, it’s impawtant to do a stock take in the

Wonder if this could be an expectant mum? 🤔 🦔
Yaay for the PAWMAZING KCC 💚 rescuing & rehoming so many kitties. It was six years ago on this very day that they rehomed a kitty you might know…she’s a tabby girl & she went to her foreverhome in Leeds. Can you think who it could be? 🤔 Yes it’s ME! Today’s my Gotcha Day! 🎉🎉
Spring is in the air....& so was I 😺
What a start to Monday for my pawrents!!! 😵 They weren’t too impurressed. I haven’t done this particular manoeuvre for more than 2 years! 😼 Tee hee!!!

Mum spotted this bumblebee on our step, looking sorry for itself , so she took it some concentrated sugar water. It’s drinking and seems to be perking up a bit! Good luck my buzzy furiend 🐝

“Are you alright there mum? Don’t worry, I’ll look after you.”
Poor mum’s laid-up feeling rough after her 2nd Covid jab yesterday. So this morning’s routine has been severely disrupted which has concerned me greatly.
Luckily for mum, Nurse Millie has a very paws-on approach 🐾❤️
Back on mum’s knee, now, where I belong…Can you believe my pawrents abandoned me to celebrate their Anniversary with a day in York?! 💕
I enjoyed hearing about their delicious lunch at The Fat Badger where pawtraits of Brock were prominent!

What an evening! Lots of scary bangs & booms 💥 🎆 Luckily dad & mum were close at paw to comfort me ❤️ I spent quite some time hiding under the bed but I listened to
