Messymascot's faith in humanity and ginger safe haven

Sadly Messy passed in December mate. His spot here lives on in his memory and we hope we are doing him proud.
Bloody hell I feel terrible now, what a shame, he was a smashing fella to converse with, didn't like to intrude on his situation too much,RIP to a great bloke and contributor on here:(PS what a great idea to keep his memory going within this thread:)

Ah don’t feel bad fella, you didn’t know.

Karl was great craic and is sorely missed.

Nice bunch of frequent flyers in here Dario, great wee support network and a good laugh.
 
OK guys , good news on the doggie front.

Just back from the vets with Blue.

As far as the lady vet can tell the painkillers are working well and he isn't in distress.

He has bad arthritis in all 4 legs , much worse in the front leg that he won't put weight on.

However she is happy with his appetite and encourages us to give him gentle exercise.

He has hated taking his daily painkilling Tabley and his reaction is that it must taste very bitter. So she is able to give him a new treatment that has proved successful with a monthly painkilling injection.

Clearly he isn't going to recover but for now he's fine.

I appreciate that many of you have been worried.
That’s good to hear and must be a relief for you.

That's good news mate. At least the old fella is comfortable. That's all you can ask.

This is great news, Jazzy! I bet it brighten your day, it has my night. May the new treatment continue working on Blue.
 
Hello fellow Mascoteers. I wish I had been able to catch up with everyone earlier but today was a very hectic workday. Thankfully Friday is almost here so hopefully tomorrow I’ll have more time to chat.

I leave you with a pic of Fresca. My poor kitty looks so sad with this satellite dish on her head, she keeps bumping into everything. But it is necessary so her wound doesn’t get infected with her licking. Reese, my other cat is puzzled and intimidated by her new looks ?

Oh that's good to hear, hate to think of them in pain.

Morning everyone, hope you're all good today.

Nice one Jazzy, I hope he can go on like that for some time.
 
Good Morning all, beautiful day up here for a change, I had a negative test yesterday, another one today and I'll be able to go out and about again thankfully.
I need a good walk to blow off the cobwebs and get some circulation going.
I hope everyone is good and you all have a great day to kick-start your weekend.
I have some of last night's Chinese takeaway leftovers to look forward to including salt and pepper squid.
 
The reporting on the Ukraine on CNN is absolutely staggering and scary in equal measure.
They have reporters on the ground in Ukraine reporting on the invasion and upon actual engagements.
Their military and political analysis upon Putins true intentions is impressive in its detail but incredibly worrying.
One very senior politician on the US defence committee said the greatest worry was a massive cyber attack upon Ukraines gas and electricity utilities that would bleed into Poland a NATO member and thereby invoke Art. 5 and lead to a full blow war.
Jeez.
As my missus commented, thank god Trump isn't still in charge these days.
