How are you coping with this very hot weather? I am very sensible and stay in the shade for most of
the day - being black and white means I have some sensitive bits and have to be careful. We cats are struggling in this weather, but Jill and Richard make sure we have plenty of water - plus you can't beat a drop of pond water, water from a plant saucer or from a puddle. Yum!
I forgot to tell you last week that Jazz had to go to the vets. That boy is a regular visitor there and I understand there is talk of him having his own named seat. Jazz had a very poorly eye and Jill had to give him half an antibiotic tablet twice a day and squish some eye ointment into his poorly eye. Poppy, Coco, Daisy and I thought it was hilarious watching Jill and Richard trying to get Jazz to take his medication. Not sure why, but they didn't find it so funny. I have said it on many occasions, humans are weird!Poppy caught a magpie last week, but it got away. She dragged it into the hedge, and it shot out squeaking and squawking, followed by a rather embarrassed Poppy. She doesn't appear to have tried to catch any since then.
It's hot inside, so I am off to find a cool spot. I will be back next week and paws crossed, the weather will be a little cooler. Before I go, please don't forget to take care of your animals in this heat:
Don't leave them in cars
Make sure they have plenty of water
Take dogs for their walk very early or late at night when it is cooler.
'See' you next week.

Sound advice - mad dogs and Englishmen they say. We found cool streams and woodland for the Boxer dog walks last week.
