3 months almost to the day.

ETA: Just heard back from the local paper - they want me to ring them and tell them about Lucius and his mysterious journeys!

Lucius the Wanderer is back. Again.

 

Three months almost the day, I think... *checks* 25th July it was when he came back last, and he stayed 2 weeks. He's in beautiful condition, if a little too light, and very hungry.  He hasn't even got a flea dirt on him, so it's clear he's not living rough because someone is obviously treating him. God it's good to see him. I even had a feeling yesterday that he'd be back today -or perhaps it was because he knew I wanted him back today that he came back today. He won't stay, and the balance in the house is disturbed all over again, but still nice to see him.

I know how unlikely it sounds, even to myself. I've been fooled by so many stupid sock puppet stories. What I think I'll do is write to the local paper - it's a "local interest" story which they might like - and it would be good to know who else is fostering him.  I will definitely get a collar this time - with one of those little barrels with my phone number and a tiny message in it - at least then someone can ring me and tell me he's safe.  There's never going to be a way I can force him to stay- although I really wish he would. He's stuffed his face, and now he's in his basket. I can never face putting his basket away, just in case "today" is the day he comes home. I do wish he'd stay.

Severus is, of course, upset again.  It's really not fair.

True Blood.  Aww Billy-Bob the Vampire is such a gennleman caller! *squishes him*

Only a few sporks today.Tired, and I think I can see the end of it.

- they are sitting in a lighted room in a busy street in the dark. They kiss. They embrace. THEN they shut the curtains. er. No. 17th century remember?
- if he strips off down to his under-breeches, hose and shirt, he can't be wearing his ordinary breeches when he wakes up.
- What, pray, is a "half-wounded adversary"?

Aw, Lucius, cat about town! I wonder what his other family calls him.

You should definitely write that piece for the paper. I'll bet his other family is just as curious as you are.

i wonder if he has about six families, spending two weeks in each house!

There's a kids' book about a cat called "Six-Dinner Sid" - he goes to six different houses for his meals... Mum and I use it as 'shorthand-speak' for a wandering cat; we've often wondered if her cat, Jazz is a Six-Dinner Sid, as she's absolutely enormous despite eating very little at home. According to the letter Mum had from the vet about her weight, she suffers from "obestity" [sic].

*laughs* I wouldn't mind that, as long as he came home every night!

I hadn't thought about that, but you may be right. The little feline polygamist!
