Claw Clipping Day

Mabel and Dijon have been enjoying the Spring sunshine whenever they can, with Mabel sprawling on the box by the window even in the hottest rays. On the days when we've drawn the curtains to keep the room cool, she goes behind them to be in full sun!

Mabel's abscess is quite large beneath her jaw, but for now she is still enjoying her food - she eats her extra supply of pellets in her special place next to the piano keyboard, and demands fresh strawberry leaves on the days when it's warm enough to be on the patio. 

This morning they both had their claws clipped. Dijon squirmed so much that one was cut slightly too low, and he was left feeling very sorry for himself, with a slightly red nose from licking his 'wound' so much. 

However, he was still happy to pose for a post-manicure/pedicure photo shoot.
