After what feels like a long winter of rain, and cold windy weather in Cornwall, the sun has returned… and this makes Gizmo and his Human very happy! Gizmo loves spending time in the garden when the sun is shining ❤ He also loves climbing on the fence to spy on the neighbours 🤦♀️😹 Its days like this when I love sitting in the garden … Continue reading Purrfect days…
Sundays are for sleeping… Not just because we lost an hour of sleep last night thanks to the clocks coming forward, but also because Gizmo spent most of the night loudly chasing (and misplacing) a mouse in the living room…. Mouse location still unknown… 🐁🤦♀️ My front room is now littered with humane mouse traps, waiting for the little darling to appear… 😹🤦♀️ Thanks Gizmo … Continue reading Sundays are for sleeping…😹💤
Since I started running, I’ve found there are good runs, runs I would rather forget, and runs that dont go to plan… and yesterdays run definitely did NOT go to plan. I managed to squeeze two short runs in the week around work commitments, but yesterday I’d planned to do my long run. In hindsight I think I pushed myself a bit hard on my … Continue reading Gizmos Human Marathon Update – 21 March 2021
I know that humans across the world are all talking about getting their covid vaccines at the moment, but today Gizmo went to have his annual check up and vaccination.

Because he shouts at me throughout the entire journey… 🤦♀️ Not … Continue reading Gizmos’ Annual Vaccine…

I’m not sure how you and your cats feel about the winter months, but Gizmo and I are not fans… We arent keen on staying indoors all day, but the cold, wet, windy weather doesn’t make us want to venture out much over the winter months either. Now that the Human is training for the London Marathon in 2022, she forces herself to go out … Continue reading Spring 2021 is on the way…🌷
Gizmo is forever having adventures, but now it’s the turn of his Human Slave to have an adventure of her own… As you may have guessed, Gizmo is the centre of my world. Having him in my life is my reason to get up and face each day. Even the days that I’d rather not face… He gives me reasons to laugh on a daily … Continue reading Gizmos Human is now one of the #CatChampions
It only seems like yesterday when Gizmo first came into my life… but in the blink of an eye, 5 years have passed…. A timid, fearful, little bundle of tabby fluff was delivered to my house on February 13th in 2016 and he spent the next few days hiding under my dining room table each time a human spoke, or made a sound. In some … Continue reading 5 years of memories (and mischief)… 😹
