As Claire and i were getting ready to take Smokey for a drive yesterday, both our cats came to investigate, each with his own inmitable style.

Felix snuffled his way round the cart - Claire took this photograph as he reached the highest point and just before he slid rather inelegantly down the armrest and onto the floor. We don't have many photos of him so it was nice to get this one.

Cassius decided the new whip had the potential to offer some mousing practice - but he was so nonchalant as he sized it up!

Smokey was is great form. I think his weight loss suits him, in all sorts of ways. He was certainly stepping out as we headed along Kelliebank - Claire didn't fancy a canter (and neither did I), but he was also moving well on the way out.

Chris has flattened a track round the field so I'll try and get Smokey out tomorrow in the buggy in the field and see how he goes. Not as fast as he was tonight when Chris had his horse out in the exercise cart, I hope.
