Bubbles has been with me about 4 months each day she’s been making progres. Bubbles is a rescue cat from a well known UK animal charity called “RSPCA” her original name was called “Aurbun” but I didn’t really like the name. I had a few names for her but I can’t remember now what they were now; however I went to the RSPCA centre with my boyfriend to go and meet her first, this was because it was due to the fact that it’s easy to say I can adopt her straight away but it was down to Bubbles at the end of the day if she can accept me and my boyfriend.
However she surprised the cattery supervior at the time as Bubbles came to me on her own terms. Bubbles enjoyed the attention, the petting and the playing. The chicken treat came and that was it she wanted more love and enjoyed the petting and the love from my boyfriend as well. She had accepted the both off us to which stunned the supervisor even more because she told us that she was a very shy kitten and a horrible start in life.
Bubbles had fitted the name from day one. On the 15th May 2022 Bubbles had finally come home each day she grew more and more confident each day. They said to me and my boyfriend that it will take time for her to get use to her new surroundings but she surprised us all the first week, the second week she surprised us and continued the progress.
Bubbles in her early start in life she is one out of 40 cats that have been rescued from up north in one of the big cities. The original owners are being prosecuted for neglect and mistreated. Bubbles is a special cat but very cleaver. The reason why I say she’s a special cat.
Special Cat -
- Cross eyes
- Back Hips
- Forgets where people are
- Dodgey left leg
- Cat Flu and other prone cats can have
- Anxiety
Bubbles is my special cat hitting milestones each day and it surprises me all the time. I get so excited when she hits them and I hope they continue to progress because she is just amazing even though she has days of being a cling on to someone for a few days or just want to be left alone likes to be checked on ever so often if she doesn’t do it herself.
Bubbles has been quite clingy to me where she’s been enjoying laying on my lap sleeping and this is one of my favourite ones. It’s on her terms off wanting to sit or lay on my lap or someone else; I let her walk across me and etc, until she’s ready to have a lay and have a cuddle because I don’t like forcing her or my sisters cats to do what I want them to do. It’s down to them at the end of the day.
I love how she sleeps because she’s happy and safe. Always happy and smiling. We catch her out a few times where she sleeps it’s only happened in the past 2 months that she has been starting to use her cat beds (August-September 2022) unlike my sisters cats they’ve started to use their beds properly over 4 years or so that have been in the same place.
Bubbles is one of those special cats that I’ve trained her to go to her beds with treats for awhile until one day I caught her in one bed and my boyfriend caught her in the other. She just adorable and handleful at the best of times.

You're Nobody Until You've Been Ignored By A Cat
Introduction I am currently reading the excellent "The Pie At Night" by Stuart Maconie and he mentions that he has a homemade fridge magnet that he bought from a craft fair somewhere in Lakeland that has a wooden cat with googly eyes that states "You're Nobody Until You've Been Ignored By A Cat" and that is something that happens to me very often, so it would imply that I am not Nobody.

How to take care of your cat
Feed them natural food, not commercial dry powdered foods. Although natural foods involve more preparation, it really doesn't with the right steps. You can prepare a lot of natural cat food and store it in the fridge or freezer. When storing it in the freezer, be sure to put it in separate containers. You can also mix a little bit of vinegar or wine if storing it in the fridge to make it last longer. Note that storing it longer will also decrease the nutrition, taste, texture, and aroma of the food. If the cats are not spoiled or native, they'll still eat it anyway. Only mix probiotics and vitamins when you're ready to give the food. You can search on Google for foods that aren't allowed for cats and foods that are appetizing to cats. I usually mix the food with allowed fruits and veggies. Not to add too much because they won't eat it. I also mix meat stock, rice, and some commercial cat food to save more money and increase nutrition, thereby preventing diseases and veterinary expenses. When I can't give them anything, I give them rice with soy sauce mixed with a little bit of malunggay. Cats have little kidneys, so don't give them soy sauce often, which is high in sodium. It said on Google that grinded pumpkin seeds can get rid of worms, but I haven't tested it. If youre planning to give it, though, be sure to test it first on one cat and a very small amount, then monitor for the cats behavioral changes. Same procedure when introducing other types of food. If effective, maintain the diet so the worms will be completely eradicated and nutrition levels maintained. Also, clean the cage with Clorox to remove the eggs on the surfaces so the worms won't come back to the cat.

Disarmament
They say there's no atheism in the foxhole. While I wasn't currently neck-deep in a river of soft sediment, I was still praying to whoever would listen. Why am I doing this again? I would ponder while staring at the device that in no less than a minute could be my undoing. I scanned each and every variable panel and commonplace button as I watched the bright red L.E.D ticker countdown. No wires to cut, no code to put in, there was only one way to stop this infernal machine, and that incurred perfect timing.
