is back!

Found by someone up the road last night, the Demonlord has obviously transported himself across several astral planes to get back to somewhere so close any ordinary cat would be embarassed to get lost there. Poor little puss was thin, mildly dehydrated, and horribly smelly, with reason quickly detected; he had entangled himself in his elasticated collar, which had wedged in under his foreleg and caused a huge open wound, rank with infection. Any mobility, let alone hunting for food, must have been extraordinarily difficult. A very kindly vet at the emergency services checked him over, gave him painkillers and an anti-bi shot and some kind of under the skin rehydration thing. We brought him back at awful o'clock this morning, he ate, drank, slept and then woke us at ungodly a.m for breakfast. 'He's a tough little guy!' smiled the vet. He's our Ralik. And he's home:-)

Best news I've heard today! How has he taken to the invasion of kittens during his absence?

What did I say, as soon as you got new kittens the little sod would slink back and demand to be fed!

I am soooo happy he's back, best news I've heard for a while.

*hugs to all of you*

And now he has step-offspring to bend to his evil ways....

Nobody ever said cats had to be intelligent, just smart enough to get the monkeys to open the tin.
Good to hear he`s back and in one piece.

He has not met them yet.
Surya hissed at him when we brought him back, just as she is hissing at the kittens. We are worried about her responses to all these interlopers, and the last thing we need is a cat fight, either between them or startling one of them so that they attack a kitten, so we are keeping kitties out of the way until Ralik and Surya are OK with each other, and they aren't even going to meet until Sunday night, by when she should have readjusted to the memory of his (currently quite strong) pong!

Cat politics is really strange...

Oh I think so...OK, I concede that Obama becoming president is on a par...Ralik doesn't agree with me. Thank you for your smiles and thoughts X

Thank you! He knows not of the kitty invasions yet, because we are keeping him in our bedroom for now - but he's getting more and more insistent on finding out what's going on!

Love the Mitchy Boogie, thank you *beams with joy!*

Thank you, it's hard to describe. Russ and I couldn't believe it - on some level we had both resigned ourselves to never seeing him again, and when we did, we were delighted and stunned. It's only beginning to sink in now!

*Big hugs back* thank you! You were quite right of course, little git that he is! To add to the mayhem of returning Ralik and manic kittens, Surya has celebrated by bringing in a dead starling and tearing it joyfully to pieces. Cats: charisma 20, wisdom 5, alignment chaotic evil...

Thank you!

Step-offspring. I dread the meeting.

Thanks!

It is a hoorah moment for us - shortly followed by the 'OohbuggerOw!' moment when we try to clean his wound!

Thank you, it is indeed a phew moment, particularly when smelling him - right now he's a knock-out-at-ten-paces type of guy!

Ah thank you, tender pats greatly needed all round X

Thank you my dear, so am I.

Intelligence? I'll settle for consistency.

OK, I know, wrong species...
