Nap Time!

My sleep cycle is terrible lately. Truly terrible. I have a sleep tracking app on my phone which I can use to tell me just how ridiculously awful my sleep habits are. It’s very useful. I’ve been using this tracking app since August. For the majority of that time I have been getting too much…

Can You Say ‘Fabulous’?

We fostered kittens for a few months a little over a year ago. It was a wonderful experience and something I would definitely like to do again sometime. I’ll admit that the hardest part was saying goodbye to the little monsters, but it was definitely a worthwhile experience.

Food for Thought

It’s kind of funny how we make assumptions with regards to price. Pretty much since we started Elvis on his diet I figured that his special food must be costing us more than Lola’s run-of-the-mill stuff. After all, Elvis’s food comes in at about 36€ a bag, whilst Lola’s is just 7€ for two boxes.…

We’ve had her with us for nearly two months, and she’s developed from a tiny hissing little ball of…

Foster Diaries: Ilona & Friends – Week Two

I’m going to try and keep this short because I’m exhausted after today’s writing Marathon (I’ll tell more about it tomorrow, but suffice to say that I wrote a little over 10,000 words today…) Still nothing from any potential adopters. We’re going to have to try and work out logistics for whilst we’re away. We’re…
