CATachresis Films presents "Let them eat cake!"

After a very long delay, mainly because of the star's hissy fits and ongoing studio and union disputes,  CATachresis Films can now present its new soon-to-be award winning blockbuster film for you, the viewing public to enjoy in glorious technicolour and dolby surround sound!



The cake somehow managed to big up its part and walk off the plate!! 
Austin says it was definitely a case of overacting!
NUCAT is involved and egos and furs are being stroked!

Studio Portrait Sunday Selfie!



Actually, we don't have a studio, so it's a conservatory portrait with a frame and everything! I am looking arrestingly aristoCATic and noble, don't you think!  Well a kitty can dream, eh! MOL
Please don't forget to check out the latest (and very exciting *yawn*) edition of The Towers Times. Also you can read previous editions if you go here! :-)

Sunday Selfie ... and I've been Immortalised!!

Well, I'm here to say that the fountain saga will probably run and run (geddit?! MOL) But The Staff has noted a significant lowering of the water level which can't just be put down to evaporation! I'm saying no more *taps nose and winks*!

Moving swiftly on! We are back for the Sunday Selfie blog hop! YAY! .......... OK, enough already with the cheering and shouting! Here is my offering:

I think I look kind of regal and imperious!!  I've been framed and everything!

AND
GREAT EXCITEMENT!
Talking about being framed! 

I've been immortalised by Nellie!!!
Ok, so Nellie told her Mum, Barb, exactly where to draw the line MOL!
 She is very talented, don't you think!!

It was such a lovely surprise to receive this gorgeous painting in the post and Mum and I think it is spiffing! We are going to get it framed proper - not just photoshop MOL

Thank you so much, Nellie and Barb. We LOVE it! xxx

So we are joining Kitties Blue for their Sunday Selfie Blog Hop!
They are celebrating their second anniversary ... that's 104 blog hops! Whew! Big ConCats!

You can lead a cat to water ......... Yeah, right!

The Staff went and bought me a fountain!
Of her taste, there is no accountin'!
She filled it with water!
And she shouldn't have oughta!
I ran over the wall and was rantin'!

Here's the sorry saga so far in more detail with pictures and everything!

The Staff here: In the ongoing battle to get Austin to drink healthily, I purchased at great expense (£10 off in "Pets at Home":-) a water fountain that is practically silent! There was a bit of a palaver getting it constructed as the instructions appeared to be in every language but English (Brexit notwithstanding!). Luckily I speak fluent Double Dutch, so all was not lost!

At first Austin was eager to get going!

Some time later, however...







So there you have it! The lovely clean water fountain stays untouched and unsullied by kitty lips, while said kitty nips over the wall to drink from next door's broken gutter! On the upside, Austin is feeling loads better and is getting used to his adjusted diet! :-)
