As you all know, Daniel had his operation on Thursday. What you did not know is that Leo also had his "operation" on Thursday - although he had his bits removed. Mike says "ouch"! What a day it was. So Leo is now neutered and duly microchipped.
He was not happy being put in the cat basket, I wonder whether they do sense things or maybe he thought we were taking him back to where he came from. Anyway all went well and he is now back to his lively young self, into everything. We were told only to give him half a meal that evening. Try telling that to Leo! He pestered and pestered and in the end he ate far more than usual and then had a long sleep.
He loves to sit on our computer desks, especially when we are playing online cards and he tries to catch the cards as they move. If he is not on my desk then he is on Mike's. Computers seem to fascinate him. He is also amazed when DVD's eject from the machine or when CD's come out of my disc drive. He sits and waits for it to happen again and dabs at them with his paw. So we often have a game with him putting them in and taking them out.
This year I bought myself a Birthday present, although it arrived a couple of days ago, I could not resist putting it up before the day. Yes, today I am another year older (and deeper in debt lol!). When you see what I bought myself you will understand why I could not resist it. It is a crystal.
It is so very like Leo when he lies curled up and dozing. I just had to have it. As the light shines through, the colours glow.
I had a lovely surprise this morning, Mike has decorated our lounge with Birthday banners and a couple of Helium balloons. He has also given me a new all -in- one printer/scanner/copier so I can at last dispense with my flatbed scanner and have a little more room. I can also plug my digital camera straight into it. Probably take me months to work out how to use it, not being technically minded. A lovely present though. I had a beautiful potted plant and a new mug for drinking my tea from the pets.
Anyway my friends, I did not have a good night last night, just could not sleep, had lots of the hot sweats due to my medication, so I am off to grab a couple of hours lie down before the family arrive this afternoon.
I do not know if we will take any birthday pictures. We probably will. If we do and they come out o.k. I will share them on my next entry.
Take care all and have a good Sunday.

Hi Jeannette,
Many happy returns for your birthday today. I hope you have a lovely day. That was very nice of Mike to buy you an all-in-one scanner/printer/copier. I have one, have had it one year, and I still haven't worked out how to use the scanner, lol.
My, Leo has grown! Thanks for sharing the pictures. My cats do not like going down to the vet's clinic either. I could tell you many tales, lol. My cats love to chase a reflection of a watchface or a reflection of a torchlight up a wall. It's hilarious!
Love and hugs,
Leigh :o)

Ohhh Little Leo. Hope he is all better now. He's a cutie. Happy Birthday! I like those all in one printers. Have a good week.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!! Love your little Leo! I never had cats until a few years ago I agreed to help bottle feed three little 3-week old abandoned kittens until they were old enough to be adopted. Yep, I adopted them! I was raised with dogs and thought cats could never compare. I now have 3 dogs and 3 cats!! Granted, there is no real comparison. I love BOTH cats and dogs now!!! Is that the same thing as ambidextrous??!! LOL. Just kidding! Wow, your crystal cat looks just like Leo. It's beautiful, too. Well, many blessings to you and your family on this beautiful Sunday morning. Continued prayers for Daniel's speedy recovery. Hugs, Linda
Happy Birthday, Jeannette, and many happy returns! Pleased that Leo's op went well, and continued good wishes to Daniel.

Happy Birthday Jeanette, I hope you had a great day.
I'm so glad that Daniel is much better, it must have been a horrible time for you all.

He has certainly grown into a very beautiful boy and his coat looks amazing!!!
Hope you get some rest.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JEANNETTE!
I loved the cat in the crystal. It did look like your Leo. Poor little chap loosing his 'bit's!
I'm so pleased Daniel is recovering well. That's a relief!
Power to your new all-in-one scanner. I'm looking forward to seeing your birthday photos.
The hot flushes can be debilitating. They waken you up when you would rather be asleep. It's because of the anti-cancer drugs they give us.
Take care and enjoy the rest of today.
hugs
