Fiddick

We live next door to Aunty Helen and Uncle Nealy and my human cousins James and Tom. When they're not around I like to go next door and play with Fiddick. He recently lost his brother Checkers so he's a little subdued and at the moment he is quite cuddly and likes a lot of attention.

He's a bit of a tease and wants me to come and give him a wash... and fill my mouth with his fur? What a cheek!!

I'm happy to oblige though and usually give him a quick wash..

To be honest, after I've had a quick sniff and said hello, I'm more interested in having a good look around the garden to sniff out the mice and other smells that are in the garden.

Mum picked some of the catmint for him.. can you see the goofy spacey look in his eyes? He's been eating it, the silly cat, he's supposed to roll in it not just sit and eat it.

I tried a bit but it didn't do anything for me, so he can keep it... I'll stick to my tripe. BOL I bet you knew I was going to say that didn't you!!

It's Tripe Delivery Day!!!

Well, the doorbell rang this morning and I just knew that it was the Parcelforce man for me!! I could smell him walking up the pathway.

We rushed to the door and that was the box!! Huge isn't it!! Here it is opened up and I'm just checking the contents against the delivery note.

Mmmm all present and correct, 5kg tripe, 3 bags of chicken necks and a bag of Rinti - I haven't had that before but mum thought I could try it as a mixer with my meat as it sounded very good. I tried a few taster pieces and thought they were great.. they're sort of a bit green, like small nuggets of solid horse poo! There was also a free first aid kit from Zooplus. Go check it out, www.zooplus.co.uk

I always get taster bits to try when mum unpacks the box.

It's truly delicious. If you haven't tried tripe, you really don't know what you're missing.

Look, here is my tripe tub that mum's just refilled with fresh stock...

And here it is a little closer...

And here it is again closer still... mmm you can almost smell the rich tripey scent.
