Re: reggie licking his back.


hes one of them cats that if hes worried about something he will wash n wash. he did it b4 when barnaby was picking on him. we had to re-home barnaby in the end.
and reggie hasnt been coming in worried so dont think its the other cats. hes mates with a couple of them.
and ronnie n him dont fight. the occasional dust up over who wants to sit on the same bit of bed. u know what they are like.
so ringing them 2morrow.
