Clearing the garage

Today I finally finished clearing the garage.  All the stuff we brought with us (10 months ago now) has been either put in its correct place, given away or binned/recycled. …

Ninth Day of Mousemas – Boxing Day

Saphy here again. The humans had great hilarity this afternoon playing a game called “Railway Rivals”.  This is apparently a game they bought in the dim mists of prehistory when…

    Eighth Day of Mousemas – Christmas Day

    / 25 December 2025

    Saphy here. It has been chaos today.  People, presents, paper, singing, endless music and then pointless games for hours and hours.  Amber went off in the sulks – she managed to hide so…

    Seventh Day of Mousemas – Christmas Eve

    / 24 December 2025

    Sixth Day of Mousemas – A visitor

    / 23 December 2025

    Amber here.  R’s sister V came today.  She is very scary because she has two dogs and (I have to be blunt here) she smells of them.  Also, she is just scary because…

    / 22 December 2025

    Saphy here.  I am only informed of this second hand – but R at least is a reasonably reliable source (wouldn’t trust M as far as I could claw her).  Apparently when he…

    / 21 December 2025

    Amber here.  I must say I am very impressed with our humans today.  I have mentioned that R got us (well me actually but Saphy steals it sometimes) a little bed for near…

    Third day of Mousemas – some churches

    / 20 December 2025

    Saphy here again. M and J went on a “walk to the manger” today.  This involved going into different churches around town and singing Christmas carols.  As a slight digression – I believe…

    Second Day of Mousemas – Christmas Markets

    / 19 December 2025

    Amber here.  I am not quite sure why Saphy got her two penn’orth in first, but regardless of her having an email address and an Instagram account (whatever that is) I am the…

    First Day of Mousemas – A reflection on things past

    / 18 December 2025

    Saphy cat here.  I am saphy.cat on Instagram and you can also contact me on saphy.cat@outlook.com. I haven’t got a mobile phone yet but I am working on the humans on that front.…
