Topsy
Over the Rainbow Bridge
Just a quick Topsy update - managed to "persuade" her into the car - eventually I emptied the boot and removed the Parcel shelf (Madame did NOT want to ride on the back seat, wheras Dookie our old Grey would not get in the boot!) and after a gentle lift in she was quite happy.. lol. Took best part of 10 minutes to persuade her though!! We had an anxious drive home when I realized I couldn't get to the petrol station on the eastbound A45 and my car was telling me fuel was running out but we made it home, and she was as good as gold in the car. Grace (our 4yr old) was over the moon. Topsy had good scout round of the house, and a nose in the back garden, which impressed her. She has done a couple of "Number 1's" and a "Number 2", both of which she asked for by pacing and panting - and was rewarded with some cheese which impressed her even more for getting it right. This was followed by sporadic trips into the lounge to be adored and cuddled, topped off with a tasty Pigs Ear in the hall and a good drink to top things off. She is currently sprawled out in her "space" in the hall next to the radiator on her new bed (both kids are banned from here to give her a place to retreat to) looking very at home and taking it all in. Have some photo's I'll email over when I pull them from the camera.

Well done Ellie-May, our humans certainly do need a lot of training don't they? We are still having to do a lot of work with ours, but they do get there eventually! Our mum said you were lovely and wanted to bring you home so you could keep us youngsters in line, but dad there's no more room at this inn :0( Keep us posted with how you get on, love and licks, Kevin, Sadie and Moomin xxx
