maybe it's three things but only by accident

There were no onions in my house so I shouldn't have skipped the fruit and veg the other day. I bought onions and then fried a big skillet of onions and it was like a sausage sizzle came to my house, only the sausages were vegetarian. I am very satisfied with my tummy full of onion.

My partner's manager lives in Christchurch (jetting about between branches in different cities as only managers can) and has not had to evacuate from the huge wildfire yet, but it's getting closer. The smoke is visible from space.

Geoffrey's sensitive stomach has given him trouble again today. I have had to clean up after his hurling in six different places. Poor cat is feeling mopey and wants to stay near me all the time, which is fine if I'm not in a part of the house with carpet.

Poor cat. I found that *all* my cats (and I'm talking about when I had numerous outside cats, plus 6 insiders) were frequently ill when eating *any* cat food made by Purina. Quite often after only a few bites.

Purina practically has the cat food market sewn up in the US, but there are 2 other brands hidden among the Purina stuff (have to look close, Purina tries to hide their near monopoly by changing the brand names on some of their products).

Maybe if you change Geoffrey's diet he will do better on a different food?

I've been boycotting Nestle for gosh about 25 years, so they don't eat Purina. I'm sure the food I get them isn't the healthiest available, but it's better than some I tried... there was a very cheap variety I bought for a little while, but all the cats were always hungry and asking for more. I figured out why when I saw how much lower the protein and fat percentages were on the cheap stuff; it was certainly false economy as well as nutritionally inadequate.

Last time Geoff was having ongoing spewing troubles, we discovered he was well overdue for a worming, and after his worming tablet he was fine. I think it must be time he had another one.

*nods* If that doesn't do the trick, maybe he needs a proper exam. It might be hairballs? Or even if you've got a large bag of dry food, it could have mold- sometimes the bags get damp in shipment, but are dry when you buy them, so you don't know there's mold spores.

I like onions and I use them almost always. Also I grow some in my vegetable garden. Last time they were so very aromatic that they made me cry every time. Aromatic and sweet - yum!

Oh these fires!This is so terrible, poor peopla, animals, everything!

Aw, poor baby, I can imagine. Pet him for me too!
Living with a cat is why I prefer lino on the floor. Except the living room, I can mop everywhere easily.

I've grown garlic with success, but when I grew onions they didn't seem to do much - I ate a lot of the green tops since they weren't making any bulbs in the ground. Yummy indeed!
