The Cats.

Sorry to all those English readers but I’m using an American computer with American spell check and you know how they’ve twisted our awesome language but there’s not a lot I can do.

Also apologies for the lack of blogging we’ve just been doing too much.

If you have a sharp eye you might have noticed a few very cute kittens running around the boat. These are the boat cats Ayra, Bilbo and Ollie.

We didn’t quite mean to get to three but things happen here. I have these friends in town on a boat called That, an amazing trimaran built here on the river. Their cat had just had a litter of kittens when I went over to see how they were getting on with That because it’s another project boat. When I eventually got to leaving I said that I could be interested in one. Then Jonas arrived and having owned cats he immediately thought it was a great idea. So we went over and one very quickly turned into two. We were very happy at this and went and got the food and all was well.

Literally the next day Paul of a boat called Samphire came back from his run and came to find us. Two weeks previous to all of this he had seen a local dumping four kittens into the jungle while on a walk. Once he found us he said he had just found one of these kittens after not seeing them since the dumping. He went on to say “seeing as you’ve already got two cats and I’m allergic would you take this one. So in comes Ollie.
