When we bought this house we also inherited a semi-feral cat and her two kittens. One of which had a badly broken leg and infection had set it: you could smell the poor thing before you could see it.
The local vet lopped the leg off, the stitches are out the antibiotics seem to have worked….
However, all of this has meant that our original cat has had to be kept indoors (and separated from the recovering kitten) until his cat leukeamia (leukosis?) vaccine has taken.
Today is his first day out and there are various spats and spits as he surveys his new domain and the other residents. One small problem. It looks like his favourite perch to do that surveying is going to be sitting on top of the Wi-Fi modem. Anyone know anything about the electro-magnetic properties of cats?
Still, there is one advantage. We’ll be easy to find. Just drive around the Algarve until you see a three legged marmalade cat and a grey one doing email. That’s us.
