Leicester is out of his cage!  In fact, he's been out for several hours a day of room 'rest' with the quote marks around rest getting more emphatic every day.  Today he went for his final vet check and now has permission to roam the house at will.  Thankfully we are no longer supposed to stop him running or jumping.  This is good because it has become impossible to keep up with him enough to stop anything.  No outdoors yet.  Vet says to think about that after at least 2 weeks.  She says we should let him out either when we're confident he's learned how to use his revised skeleton sensibly or when the stuff he's doing indoors gets so crazy that it seems safer to let him out.  Please don't tell him the second one.  He is the kind of cat who normally climbs the curtains if stuck in on a rainy day...  

The two cats are friends again and back to curling up and washing each other, though there was the usual hissing from Humbug again today when Leicester came back smelling of vet.  Leicester in Top Cat again and has been for some time.  He gets first pick of the fudz and places to sit.  I think Hum is quite relieved.

Sorry I've not been around much.  My left hand is full of RSI originally from all-day hedge-trimming session in July and now back, so I'm trying not to type more than I have to.  But now doing much better on mega painkillers with physio so hopeful it will actually get fixed well enough to go away and stay away this time.  Also I have been painting the shower room--not as daft as it sounds because it's 95% right hand work--and dealing with the various courses I teach all getting into active mode.  Still loving the new house.

Very sorry to hear about your RSI troubles! That's no fun, as I know but too well. I hope the new regimen does indeed cure it for good.

And OMG YAY for Leicester! Such good news! Here's to continued progress for the restored Top Cat. \o/\o/\o/

Yay for Top Cat! I'm glad he's back on all four feet and doing better!

Yay for Leicester. Sorry to hear about the hand, though. Ouch! I hope it recovers well.
