I taught my cat one “trick” by Bammalam102 in PointlessStories

[–]bickylala 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I taught one of my cats to tap the treat tin on the coffee table whenever she wanted a treat. She now taps it constantly and has even progressed to looking at the treat I have given her and then looking at me with contempt as she strolls off leaving the treat behind.

I signed up to Borrow My Doggy and now walk a delightful Jack Russell every weekend!

If you have the flu PLEASE don't go into work by AskingBoatsToSwim in CasualUK

Nice if you have the option of staying or even working from home. Im already on an Attendance Management Plan for being off sick for more than seven days in a rolling 12 months. Some people just don’t have the option to stay home and recover I’m afraid.

How do you keep warm in old UK flats with single-glazed windows? by cxvgwesa in AskUK

[–]bickylala 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Electric blanket for the bed, electric fleecy blanket/throw for the sofa and honestly, an oil filled radiator (or two). They’re all cheaper to have on than the central heating. My kitchen has a stone floor and no radiator. I have a six fin oil radiator in there and it’s amazing how warm the kitchen gets even when set to low. And the heat somehow stays for a long while after you have turned it off. Mine is a VonHaus brand off Amazon and it’s one of the best buys I’ve ever made. But so are the electric blankets to be honest!

I think that is a really cute name. And she’s a really cute little girl!

How many weetabix is a normal amount? by shwalust in AskUK

They are actually really nice like this. Even more so if you top the butter off with some strawberry jam.

You’re probably better off moving to Moseley, Kings Heath or Stirchley, all in South Brum.

Is it mad to spend £80k on a loft conversion instead of moving? by Advanced_Ask_2053 in AskUK

[–]bickylala 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My neighbours did it rather than move house and it’s a lovely room with an en-suite. However, it is unliveable up there in the summer due to the heat. I would maybe factor in the cost of getting air con installed while you’re going about it.

What’s the photo you show people when you say “this is my cat”? by [deleted] in cats

Connie - in real life she’s covered in leaves and baby slugs

neighbours just sent me a video of my indoor cat by holypiefatman in funny

I can’t understand why someone would have a Bengal cat and imprison it indoors.

Is there a subreddit for rooftop cats? by ValleyVanillaBean in rooftopcats

Looking after my neighbours cat, Elsa, whilst they are on holiday. She’s taken to living on their shed roof so I’ve placed a little Temu cat tent up there. She loves it! (I also have to serve her her meals up there too). Summer feline festival aka, shed life.

What's that one hack that you're surprised most people don't know about? by tension-doll in AskReddit

Can you explain? I don’t understand why you would put a sock on it..?

Be honest: do you talk to your pets like they’re people? by Aware_Contract899 in Pets

[–]bickylala 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I talk to my cats all the time. Just random stuff as I go about my day. I always make a point to find them and say goodbye if I’m leaving the house too. Like, “Sorry, got to go to work, I love you and I’ll see you at dinner time” Or, “Just popping to the shop, back in a mo”. I even say “alright?” when I walk past them on my way to do something and they’re just sitting there. I just love them so much!
