Oscar and Midge – then and now

On October 12, 2015December 9, 2015 By DylanIn Happenings4 Comments

Last weekend was the anniversary of Oscar and Midge coming to live with us.  Then they were small, polite little boys. Now they are huge, bossy, nose-into-everything troublemakers! Well, they're improving, really.  Oscar now shows me proper respect when I'm roaming the floor in the morning, and keeps his distance until I've decided to go …

Oscar and Midge are one year old today!

On July 2, 2015October 22, 2016 By DylanIn Birthdays, Happenings4 Comments

Happy birthday, Oscar and Midge!! They each have a cucumber cake with a candle, some lavender, thyme and parsley on.  They loved them! (The candle was removed after the photos)

Oops. I forgot

I didn't really know Tatum.  Mummy met him, and remembers him looking like Oscar, but then she says that she looks at pictures of Willow and Mr Smallweed and wonders whether she's mixed them up.  She met Tatum before she met Oscar and Midge, and it was only after those two came to live here …

Oscar

Oscar sits in the cage next door to me and Dougall and sticks his nose into our business.  He spends nearly all his time looking into my cage and irritating me.  He's not very old, about nine months now, and he's been with us since he was four months.  He came with Midge, and they …

Seven weeks went by

On November 19, 2014November 19, 2014 By DylanIn Happenings1 Comment

Seven weeks went by and we changed from end of summer to deep dark, damp winter.  That's what it seems like anyway.  It's a long time since Humphrey left us and Midge and Oscar came. It's an even longer time since Fred left the house, and Dougall and I weren't even alive then.  Yesterday was …
