Retail Therapy!

thats excellent therapy ~ did me good too ~ made me laugh till i cried ~ your poor cat ~ i hope no one teaches it to read!!!!
you really got some bargains!
and all of them included compost ~ so thats all ok!!!

Don't worry Sticki, we didn't leave her in it for too long - you should have seen the look she gave us, utter contempt! :-D

i know that look ~ i wouldnt even have got a coat on my cat ~ even without words!! she has destroyed 2 collars!
im only worried that someone will buy me that coat and make me wear it ~ its very funny

Have never been able to get a collar on her so gave up! What size are you- I'll keep a look out for the coat, only joking lol!

oooh im much too small for that coat!!

Has Strider been polished Red?

Lol! She has got a lovely glossy coat!

Bet that's made you feel better now, Red aly. Great therapy . . . :))

Certainly has! I may not be able to do much actual planting at the moment but at least I can look at my new arrivals! :-)

great bargains Red they look a treat,does Strider not like having her photo taken ?..lol

Thats my kind of shopping, any other is a chore that has to be endured, How on earth did you manage to keep the coat on Strider long enough to take a photo?.. as to the collars I`ve given up as my cats all lose them within a couple of days.....

Strange how spending money always makes us feel better lol. You had some nice bargains, and it's nice to see things have survived the winter in your garden

ive given up with collars too lincslass ~ probably more dangerous than helpful, she is chipped anyway so i just have to hope she is ok.

My old cat Dunkel had one of those collars with an elasticated inset so she couldn't get strangled if it caught anywhere. She came in one day with her paw caught in it!! More trouble than they're worth and the little bell to warn birds of her approach never seemed to work either:-(

minty went nearly beserk when the collar had a bell on ~ i had to take it off!!
the cattery where she goes if we go on holiday said they didnt like collars on them and you have to take them off even for their little places.
one day she went out with her collar on ~ a tom cat was after her ~ she came back without it ~ i think he took it off!!! ~ very naughty!!!

Maybe thought it was a sort of chastity belt, the fool :-)

Must admit I don`t really like the collars in case of accidents, many years ago one of our cats nearly strangled itself climbing a tree, poor thing was dangling from a branch.....

Strider just will not wear collars, she will struggle and struggle until she ends up getting her paw caught up in the collar next to her neck. We gave up- worried that she would do it again while we were out or end up strangling herself by getting caught on a tree or fence. As for not liking her photo taken- she was so disgusted at having to wear the coat she just wouldn't even look at us Joanella! The coat only stayed on for 5 minutes before she started to do a strange dance trying to step out of it lincslass!

sounds like my cat too!
