Wow it's been a big year for a little cat! Here are some highlights...

I changed colour...

I moved cities...

I got stuck in a tree...

I learnt how to use a cat flap...

I fought a duck and won...

I fought a pencil and won...

And of course I celebrated my first birthday (click here for a photo gallery)...

And I celebrated the festive season (click here for a photo gallery).

What a wild ride! Thanks for sharing it with me.

Holiday diets for cats

It's the silly season, and that means lots of opportunities for mum and dad to dress me up in silly outfits!

It's also a time when pets can accidentally eat food that's bad for them. Remember not to leave the following human treats out on the table or in rubbish bags if little paws can get to them:

Chocolate
Cream and milk (I love my special lactose-free pet milk though!)
Fat trimmings. turkey skin, pork crackling and other fatty meats
Human drinks like alcohol, coffee and energy drinks

If you've dogs you've got to be even more vigilant! It's not good for dogs to eat raisins or grapes (so that means Christmas pudding and Christmas cake are off the menu for canines), sweetcorn or macadamia nuts.

If you think your pet has eaten something silly (like that time I ate a piece of string...) contact your vet for advice.

I've made some educational videos about pets at Christmas. One is about choosing pets from shelters, and one is about making sure your pet has a good break while you're on holiday. If you like the videos please feel free to share them. Thank mew!
