It’s so delightful to have him back. We’ve got him airtagged now which will hopefully help us find him if it ever happens again. It would have last time given that he was stuck only 10m from home.</p> https://photoblog-a3l.pages.dev/posts/2023-08-16-mr-crumb-had-his-first/ Wed, 16 Aug 2023 17:51:05 +0000 https://photoblog-a3l.pages.dev/posts/2023-08-16-mr-crumb-had-his-first/ <p>Mr Crumb had his first morning out since his injury. His knee seems to be about 80% - a little stiff when he’s been lying around for a bit. He enjoyed himself so much that he climbed under a blanket and slept the next five hours.</p> https://photoblog-a3l.pages.dev/posts/2023-07-16-boi-has-finished-his-eight/ Sun, 16 Jul 2023 17:06:22 +0000 https://photoblog-a3l.pages.dev/posts/2023-07-16-boi-has-finished-his-eight/ <p>Boi has finished his eight weeks of isolation and is hanging out on the couch while I read Tintin. Bun’s in a sock drawer. There’s a fire.</p> https://photoblog-a3l.pages.dev/posts/2023-07-13-8-weeks-living-in-a/ Thu, 13 Jul 2023 11:56:55 +0000 https://photoblog-a3l.pages.dev/posts/2023-07-13-8-weeks-living-in-a/ <p>8 weeks living in a tiny little room after surgery to fix the two ligaments he broke. He’s finally free to roam the house and is catching up. The vet was very pleased to see he was putting a certain amount of weight on the injured leg. It’s been a stressful time for all in the house. And this came so soon after he was missing for three weeks. A month indoors and then we’ll decide if we’re ever letting him go outside again.</p> https://photoblog-a3l.pages.dev/posts/2023-04-18-having-this-guy-back-is/ Tue, 18 Apr 2023 11:46:37 +0000 https://photoblog-a3l.pages.dev/posts/2023-04-18-having-this-guy-back-is/ <p>Having this guy back is such an extraordinary relief. 3 weeks to the day. Despite spreading the word all over the neighbourhood and the peninsula (to the extent that people were excitedly asking me in the street whether I’d heard he’d been found), he was finally found 28 meters from where he sleeps on our bed. The house diagonally opposite is a sprawling complex of buildings with high wall. He likely entered through the open garage door and then, being scared to reveal himself to anyone, never took advantage of anyone coming or going to escape. So he hid around the property until he was finally trapped in the gym and was spotted behind the toilet bowl in its small washroom. Luckily I’d given a flyer to that resident about ten days or so ago and he went about getting hold of me. He’s healthy (and not the fat chap he was) and delighted to be home - not so his sister who was enjoying the best three weeks of her life😂 The support from the neighbourhood was extraordinary. I got to know them a little better. Obz is kinder and more diverse than I imagined.</p> https://photoblog-a3l.pages.dev/posts/2020-08-08-were-having-a-late-winter/ Sat, 08 Aug 2020 18:27:50 +0000 https://photoblog-a3l.pages.dev/posts/2020-08-08-were-having-a-late-winter/ <p>We&rsquo;re having a late winter cold snap.</p> https://photoblog-a3l.pages.dev/posts/2018-03-05-current-status-of-mr-crumb/ Mon, 05 Mar 2018 13:08:42 +0000 https://photoblog-a3l.pages.dev/posts/2018-03-05-current-status-of-mr-crumb/ <p>Current status of Mr. Crumb: has eaten a sky raisin and is now napping hard.</p>
