Peace and quiet.....

After all the excitement of Halloween its good to have some peace and quiet to relax..You don't get anymore relaxed than this.. Hugs GJ xx

Warlocks and witches.......Halloween fun...

Tis Halloween and there is something afoot.. I see witches below and also above.... I am off to see what is happening over the hill...

There are strange happening for sure..

Spooky spooky spooky but what fun.....

They tried to make me a warlock.....

I decided to comply just for a while....

I decided to enter this one in Hansel's spooktacular Halloween event. They are all magnificent entries to see them all click :

Here I am looking forward to visiting all my friends to see all the fabulous Halloween blogs that will be on today.. Happy Halloween everyone.. Hugs to all.. GJ

Hello everyone.. You know that mum has been megga busy and we have not even blogged for a couple days, well on Friday we had a surprise visit from great grandson bean Nicholas. Now I usually like the little beans and play with them, but ... When Nicholas bean came in mum had popped to the bakers and dad was in the yard and... Nicholas bean made a grab for me and when I moved away he grabbed my tail.. that was it... I wouldn't play with him at all and stuck to my dad like glue.. Here I am watching him from my window ledge.... But it got worse...

Nicholas bean....

With mum ....

Dad played with him with MY Halloween hat..... OK I don't like it but that's not the point....

He played with my mums wooden cats...

Now the ultimate betrayal.... Dad played with Nicholas and MY hammick.. They had great fun and if you look closely you can see me watching from the sidelines and running away when a missile came too close.. Sheesh MY hammick... Nothing is sacred.. At least dad moved my turbo track before it got broken..

Have a lovely weekend.. Love and hugs GJ xx

PS Mum said ignore the messy carpet but little beans make so much mes.. Te he...

Busy busy busy...

Hello everyone.. Just wanted to say sorry for not visiting for a couple of days but mum has been at work and then trying to finish a project when she gets home. We will get around to all Friends soon for sure...
Love you all... Hugs GJ xx

Two Positives...

Hi everyone, today two positives to tell.. One I am still doing well with my eating.........Mum and dad are so pleased....

Two.. do you remember mum's friends daughter Katie.. we showed you when she fulfilled her dream and joined her brothers in the army. On Friday she past out as a fully fledged soldier.. Well done Katie.. Mums friend now has all three of her children in the army and is so proud...

So nice to start the week on positives.

Hugs to everyone... GJ xxxxx

The peace disturbed.........

I had just gone out in the yard and jumped up on the neighbours fence for a peaceful look around... When I spied dad and what did he have in his hand......

A brush and the flipping ferminator....

I can tell you I was not amused....

Flipping heck...

Just look at the torture....

I'm out of here......

I was seriously not amused....

Later dad later.......

Hope you are all well.... Hugs GJ xxxxx

Take a sunpuddle and reflection.....

Hello everyone yesterday even though it was cold there was a sun out. Mum was sat at her laptop to do some work and I was snoopervising. There was a lovely sunpuddle and it was right where I was sitting. Mum noticed that my reflection in the screen was really good and snagged these cool pictures. there is a small video too. Hope you enjoy...

Tocktober ......

Derby started the tocks in October for his birthday and it is once again his birthday so mum tried her best to get some tock pictures.. Happy Birthday Derby.
A half tock but I moved te he..

She did better with this..

Almost missed this one too

Hugs GJ xxxx

A couple of pics............

Hello everyone...Firstly mum wanted to say that since we lost the blog roll a few weeks ago she has been trying to use the google reader thingy for helping me comment on furrends blogs. We know that there were many more that we visited that we don't have now and quite a few woofie friends, so if we visited you and we are not now can you pop over and say so that we can add you. You see mum's memory is not as it was MOL and she forgets things sometimes. It was easy when she saw who had posted and could go visit but not so easy now and we would hate for kitties and woofies and beans to think we had forgotten them.

A couple weeks ago Mollie was a bridesmaid and Lilli the flower girl. They looked really lovely. Mum thought they were just gorgeous.

All dressed up .....

Mollie and Lilli bean ... Mum love this...

We are slowly catching up with visits... And..... I am still eating brilliantly.... Mum is over the moon...... Thanks for all the continued wishes.....

Hugs and love to all... GJ xxx

I updated my post because look what the wonderful Zoolatry human did to my header and wallpaper.. Halloween magic.. Thanks so much Ann. xxxx

Update's........

Hi everyone,firstly a huge sorry for not being here or visiting but mum was just manic at work, she got in from her last call at almost 4:00 this morning. Right enough of that. These pictures are from this afternoon and I am on my window ledge where I had been watching for my fans going by. can you tell I am feeling so much better..

Can you see were they shaved under my chin to steal my blood..

I gave mum this close up...

Now for updates. Mum and dad are ecstatic because since I came back from the vet and got rid of all the fur from my insides I have been a different cat. am eating better than have for a long time and am more energetic. As I have said earlier mum said its better than winning money.. Mum says she is touching wood because she just hope it carries on because its wonderful. I am going to get the katalax once a week and be hope this helps me stay this good. Mum says she thinks maybe this has been sort of building for a long time as I have had a tiny appetite for quite a while and also not really myself.

Now the next update.. Liam had an eye operation a few days ago. They are waiting for the trauma of this to settle to see the full results but as of yet there is just very blurry fog showing there.There will they think have to be at least one more operation and maybe more but for now its a start..

Much love and hugs to all my fuurends... GJ xxxxxx

A quick hello.............

Mums on silly shifts this weekend and hasn't been able to help me blog... Here is a quick photo and see you all soon..
Hugs and love.... GJ xxxxx

My tummy........

Hello everyone I wanted to show you what they did last week. can you see my tummy .. Its all shaved. Mum said it had to be because it was all knotty and it will be better for me. Now its shaved it will be easier to keep short and also less fur to ingest. Dad says he is going to make my fur a little shorter all over even though it is not knotty because it will also stop me taking in too much fur when I groom.
On a better note.. I ate half a sachet of food and I drank some cat milk.. Mum said this is fabulous and please keep it up Jasper...
Thank you all again for the purrs... They are working...
Hugs GJ xx

I'm back and sheesh what a day......

Hello everyone.. well I am back from the vet and what a day I have had. they stole three lots of bloods from my neck because the bloods were showing raised levels of Creatinine which can mean kidney disease. They did two more test which showed this is not the case with me. They decided that they would try without the anaesthetic and would you believe they gave me three enema's. When mum phoned to see if I was ready to come home they said that although I had not done a poo they could feel that the hard blockage now felt soft. They thought maybe I was shy of going while at the vet and wanted me to go home and see if I would go in my own surroundings. They said that if I didn't go then it was back tomorrow. Mum said how on earth was I keeping all that enema inside. The vet said I think you should open the window and stand well back when you get home. I got home and went straight to my tray but when dad looked had just done a pee. a few minutes later I went back down and was down there a while. dad went to look and shouted to mum come and see.. ( all this activity around my tray ) I had been and yes there was quite a bit and yes the vet was right.. Open that window... Mum and dad were jumping for joy.. Mum said it was better than winning money. Strange beings they are...
The vet said to tempt me with whatever I will eat and mum and dad said oh we will and we do.. When mum said last time we did the same he asked how long ago and when we said April he was concerned that there had been two bouts of not eating in 6 months and we need to watch this. Hopefully I will pick up now and mum and dad are going to make sure I have catalax every week just in case.
I am due my vaccinations next month so my heart will be checked as well.
I was just sick a few Min's ago but it was liquid and dad said that if he had been through all I had today he would be feeling sick too. I am resting now with dad..
Thank you so much all my friends for the prayers, purrs. woofs and crossed paws. Please keep them going that today will have helped..
Mum will catch up with visits tomorrow..She is tired and stressed and will relax now a little..
Much love GJ xxx Mum says thank you so much xxxx

Purrs please...........

I am shouting here because the medicine didn't work and I have a blockage. I go in the morning and have an anaesthetic so they can clear it. I have been really lethargic and have not used my tray at all. They need to do it in the morning before it gets worse so because mum has to go in work tonight for a night shift dad is taking me in the morning. The other worrying thing is that when the vet examined me she said I have a heart murmur.Mum was upset at this but the vet said they will keep an eye on it. I hope tomorrow clears it and that I will feel better soon. On top of this I am still sneezing.
Purrs please.... Hugs GJ xxxxx

Vet visit.............

Hello everyone.. Today I have been to the dreaded vet. I saw the boss man today and he was very nice.... I have a bad cold and he said that as what I am sneezing is clear it will hopefully work its way out and antibiotics wont help that. I did get an injection though of anti inflammatory. The worst thing is that when he felt at my tummy he said I have solid stuff in my intestines. I haven't past any poo for two days so it looks like the fur has got stuck there. I was going to be booked in for anaesthetic tomorrow to have an enema but mum asked could they not move it without because she is worried about another anaesthetic. The vet man gave me some stuff to take and I have another appointment tomorrow.Mum is watching my litter tray and hoping I go, if not then I have to go in. I was doing so well and had put on lots of weight and then the nasty fur does this. Hopefully it can be sorted asap. Keep those purrs coming please .. Hugs GJ xx

A little update

Hello everyone. Mum has been on silly nights and not getting a lot of time to post or comment but we wanted to just give you a little update. Yesterday I ate a little chicken and some salmon paste. Today nothing. I have though been sneezing quite a bit. It looks like its going to have to be the vet tomorrow. Paws crossed for me please. Hugs and love to all GJ xxx

Sweet talk and hugs and ear skritches too......

Today mum had just sat down to use her laptop.. I wanted some hugs and loving so got up to get me some. Mum gave me sweet talk, love and..... ear skritches.. Made me feel so much better. Mum said to dad to just look at my expression and he came and took these pictures.... I am still not tip top at all and have only eaten a tiny amount but mum really thinks that it is fur that is causing the problem because I am shedding an awful lot. Also because I was sick so much with lots of fur that could have made my throat sore. They have been and got lots of goodies to tempt me and put the sticky stuff all on my paw so I have to lick it off. Fingers crossed it all helps..
