Cuthbert the Cat

We inherited Cuthbert when we moved into Belmont.  We call him a she as he is so pretty and we're also not used to having another male in the house!

The very first night we spent here in the house, Cuthbert very proudly brought us a mice for show and tell.  The second night, he played with another mouse at 2 o'clock in the morning.  I then found the bits of the mouse in the bathroom that morning and so it went on for only one or two more nights till he was outta here!!!

I guess Cuthbert then felt very sad and rejected as he then sprayed in the laundry room.
Now you all know how disgusting, vile and pungent that smell is and oh so hard to get rid off.  I tried EVERYTHING to rid of the smell and only time really did the job properly.

So poor ol' Cuthbert was then forever banished from the house.  It sounds mean, but we have made him/her a nice bed in the boiler room (which is warm) and she finally and slowly is becoming friends with Matilda.  Matilda seems desperate to play and sniff, but Cuthbert won't have a bar of her!

Until very recently, I've been allowing her to come in for cuddles at night time.  Today was special though and she spent most of the rainy day on the sofa!

Her eyes remind me of Puss n Boots!  Who moi?

Nose kisses with Matilda
